Locked usually means that some application has both write and read (exclusive) access to the file, so another application can't execute read operations on the file (the reason for the SFV checker not scanning the file).

Can you mount it with Daemon Tools and open the virtual drive with DVD Decryptor? Maybe the CSS encryption was not removed while ripping the DVD?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Correct. Extracting an ISO from a DVD doesn't mean the encryption is automatically removed. DVD Decryptor does this for you if you don't touch the settings, but it also lets you read the original encrypted data and create a (lets say) 1:1 copy of the DVD.
If you burn the ISO it should play in a normal DVD standalone. VLC should play the mounted ISO also without problem (maybe you should test this first).

There's nowhere I can't reach.
