It means you are a pirate and should be hung, drawn and quartered for your heinous act of wanting to watch a film.. 
From wikipedia..
From wikipedia..
When media with the watermark is played back on a system with Cinavia detection, its firmware will detect the watermark and check that the device on which it is being played is authorized for that watermark. If the device is not authorized (such as not being an authorized movie projector in the case of a cam bootleg, or not utilizing AACS in the case of a copy of a commercial Blu-ray disc or CSS in the case of a copy of a commercial DVD), a message is displayed (either immediately or after a set duration) stating that the media is not authorized for playback on the device and that users should visit the Cinavia web page for more information. Depending on the device and firmware, once the message is triggered, the audio may be muted, or playback may stop entirely.

If they stopped taking the pi$$ with the price of new movies at the cinema and the cinema stopped taking the pi$$ with the price of everything maybe more people would go out to watch new films because they were more affordable.
So theres no way round it then?

Pretty sure I've read most recent (or possibly firmware uprades on older) Sony and Panasonic Blu-ray players will have this form of protection built in.
LG apparently decided not to play ball so their players don't have the protection.
I foundthis link while having a little search on the subject, might be of interest. Lists the discs that are known to have the protection on them
Apparently its some analog audio signal detection thing.

If its a copy blueray, which I think it will be?, then no there is no way around it. Cinavia is embedded in the audio of the movie. You'll find it only applys to Sony devices and its only on Sony Picture movies, blue rays in specific. I had the same issue watching them on my PS3, ended up buying an xbox360 in the end it solved the problem.

What model Panasonic is it? Alot of the innards are from different manufacturers it might be stamped Panasonic but could be Sony under the hood.
Either way you have the problem and theres no way of getting round it trust me Ive spent hours searching the internet for a solution. Are you using copied bluerays?

A quick search on google and its in the manual plus people are saying its on other Panasonic players so either Sony are building them or Panasonic have agreed to take on the protection too. Best option, if you want to continue using rips, is to get another player.
Get a HDMI media player from eBay and usb hard drive they play anything.

Being honest I'm not very technically savvy when it comes to these things, I have a DVD film I want to watch so I put it in a DVD player to watch it.
it shoulden't be anymore complicated than that.
