Hi

Unfortunately you can't.

To be able to licence the standard copy protection measures that can be decoded by DVD/BD players you have to be a large commercial entity, and the money to pay for the license fee.

The only option is to add a 'splash screen' ie intro video with a copyright notice, and one at the end of the movie if required, such as:

Copying of this disc or any part of the content is prohibited in any form without permission from the author.

Copyright © 2022 Eric Petten
All rights reserved.

The above assumes that the disc and content is entirely your own work ie you video'd or photographed the source material.

Depending on your location and the purpose of the disc, and any 'other source' video and images, and audio, or filmed/photographed in certain locations or areas where photography/video is prohibited either by copyright or other restrictions. There are further 'rules and regulations' on what you can and cannot feature, promote etc, if it is for public broadcast in any form.
