ll it work with a V7 serial?
 
This requires a PowerDVD 8 key.

your powerdvd 7 key codes wont work, so its useless without the proper PowerDVD 8.0 key.
 
So no existing keys will work and they are generating keys specific to the beta to be able to test it? Anyone know how they are choosing people to give keys to?
 
I just realized that it won't install without a PowerDVD 8 serial number as well. I wonder if this would install as a trial on a clean system?

My apologies...

rip from HD

would be curious to see if you can play a rip from your hard drive
 
Its probably an "InHouse beta " and the keys are only given to verified beta testers. Just a guess.
 
I couldn't get it to play anything, although it did leave Blu-ray folders live but not HD DVD ones, so it looks like they may be bringing back in the ability to play your own stuff from folder

Could you elaborate what do you mean by "play anything"?
Folder from Harddrive
Folder from Harddrive with BD+
Mounted ISOs
Mounted ISOs with Bd+
Blu ray/HDDVD in the drive and AnyDVD runing

By the way where did you get the Key?Are you a beta tester?

Can't play from folders yet, but Blu-ray folders are no longer greyed out.
 
I just hope it plays some of the problematical movies better.........

All the neat new features are just B.S. if you still can't watch the movie!
 
I havn't got my drive with me and don't have any ISO's on my system at the moment so can't try them until tomorrow
 
Sweet. That'd be appreciated. I'd like to see if this thing's going to be worth buying or not. Obviously in beta form there's likely to be bugs and all that but, can it be worse than the betas they foist on us for version 7? :D WHAT?! What do you mean those aren't betas???! ;)
 
Looks like it will take a bit longer than planned just be patient and if I can get that I will let ya know.
