I wasn't able to register. It requires a product name and serial number for that. And I agree, DigitalFreak did us a very big favor in providing the link!!
I did add a disclaimer to my original post, in that some folks on AVSForum seem to be having issues with sound, etc. YMMV
If you want a 20% coupon, download the free RAW viewer from their site and register it (I think that was the one). They'll send you a coupon in e-mail.
Someone please let me know whether this program installs afc.sys on your system. Thank you
Not that I found. I searched my entire C: drive, including system and hidden files.
Trust him, it's not there.
I tried a small sampling of my backups (basic rips to HD, no ISOs). Resident Evil 3(Blu Ray) played fine, but Fantasic Four 2(Blu Ray) didn't. I can select the folder (you have to select the BDMV folder to get the button active, but when you do, it doesn't do anything. Nothing starts, but it doesn't lock up as I can interact with the player. All my standard DVD rips work fine as do all of the HD DVD rips that i've thrown at it.
So in short, standard dvd and HD DVD seem to work fine on this while some Blu Ray rips may have trouble (as far as my collection goes).
The Blu Ray could be with the title though, just like when we had to change the xpl file for "Knocked Up" to get it to play in PowerDVD, but had to change it back for ShowTime. Maybe you have to tweak Fantastic Four to get it to work.
All in all a solid first attempt.
O.k., that's good news. Thank you, digitalfreak and SamuriHL.
Is the program available for purchase online? I don't see it on their site.
No, not yet. It was supposedly going to be available today...
