Does anyone know where to find those titles that open up DVD's that display the copyright laws and FBI warnings? I need those for a distribution release right?

It is up to you whether you put a special antipiracy warning on your release. It is not required. I’m not sure how much good a warning would really do; those who are determined to pirate your work will likely do it anyway.

The FBI has a new antipiracy logo, but at this time has not authorized its use by anyone other than the MPAA, RIAA, SIIA, and ESA. They do, however, provide a generic text warning that anyone can use (http://www.fbi.gov/ipr/).

I would be leery of using any of the video warning images floating around the Internet that feature the FBI logo. Unless one is authorized to use the FBI logo, it could result in unnecessary trouble.
