That's exactly my point isn't it. If AnyDVD went away, there would be no new version to be had and James wouldn't be available to help.

If AnyDVD went away (which it has) then it would be possible. I lost count how many times when I had a brand-new standard BD that AnyDVD couldn't read unless I updated AnyDVD to the latest version.

Here is what some game music would sound like if replaced with music from other sources. When music is stand-alone, it is often irreplaceable (if it's great), such as some of Beethoven's symphonies, or Michael Jackson's Beat It. But when music serves a secondary purpose such as background...

But AnyDVD doesn't support as many 4K Blu-rays as regular Blu-rays or DVDs. Sometimes I encounter regular BDs and DVDs that also can't be read by AnyDVD. And as we are all aware, AnyDVD could go away too, and has. I had a 4K disc once that couldn't be read on my PC but had no problem with my...

Does PowerDVD 20 or 21 let you adjust brightness and color during 4K Blu-ray playback? I'm using PowerDVD 19 Ultra and 4K BD playback only runs in full screen where you have no access to picture settings. Every time I try to bring up settings I get a message saying playback has to exit first in...

If you don't want to read, then don't open this thread; very simple, isn't it. If you are a customer of theirs, then I don't know why this kind of discussion annoys you. They are in a shady business and we as customers have to watch what they do. Seriously, how much LUBE have you guys been...

Getting forced to shut down doesn't mean they couldn't honor existing warranties, does it? And if they don't feel like honoring lifetime warranties, then don't make lifetime warranties, and make limited ones instead. That's my point. This time, it was regulatory pressure that shut them down...

You need to get your reading comprehension straight, because what you said is exactly what I said: they shut down because of regulatory "pressure." So what was my "incorrect" info exactly? And that was not really my point. My point was and is that if they work in such a precarious business...

If you want to playback Blu-rays with the original Blu-ray menus and be able to play all the special features -- in other words, playback BDs *exactly* the way you can with a standard BD player -- then players like Kodi, KDLinks, and such can't really do that. That is one reason I avoid using...

If you don't work for Redfox, then you simply can't speak for Redfox, let alone defend them. I already bought Redfox and was using Slysoft for nine years before it was shut down, so I wasn't the one getting screwed here. Stop saying "they were very much shut down" because any grown-up could...

Usually if a product that has lifetime support is discontinued, the customer still gets compensated by receiving a *comparable* product. I bought a video card from EVGA nine years ago with a lifetype warranty, and it really meant lifetime. When it was finally broken, even though it was no...

Video games use heavy DRM too, but once in a while game publishers would remove DRM of older games and sell them on places like GOG.com. This is not to encourage piracy necessarily, but to promote good will among their customers, because some game publishers also know that DRM inconveniences...

Yes, it is and will be available, but it is no longer as prevalent and easily available. When a disc is ripped, it is ripped *for good*. Five or 10 years from now, we will still be able to rip that particular disc. Even when an upload is removed, somebody else can still rip that particular...

But that's sort of my point. I don't have to look better when it comes to discs, because it is much easier to find them. Streaming videos have tougher DRM, tougher for you to break it, resulting in fewer people who are able to break them, and therefore harder for me to find them. But AnyDVD...

But most of them are just cat-and-mouse exercises: people finding an exploit, server patching the exploit, rinse and repeat. This is like anti-malware updates that patch exploits as they come out. This is a FAR CRY from AnyDVD's absolute rock solid performance for years. Again, this is all...

When was the last time you did this? Because, this just in (a month ago actually, on Jan 25, 2017). If you use obsolete software, even if it works now, it will break eventually, like it did last month. Apple pushed a button just like that and took away what you were able to do.

But Requiem itself is also broken. It hasn't been updated for a long time, and the author has retired. If your iTunes videos were downloaded long ago when Requiem still worked, then you might be able to decrypt it. But if you download them now even with older iTunes, it doesn't work. It may...

Then name me the other programs. There are quite a few programs that can decrypt discs, but we all know there aren't nearly as many (maybe none) that can decrypt commercial streaming videos. Because if there were, we would be seeing as many torrents made from discs as those made from streaming...

The ability to capture video from cable TV with relative ease is why there are many torrents of cable TV programs. But not so for copy-protected streaming videos from Netflix and the likes, because capturing them is *not* relative ease, and that's my point. And the latter part of your post...

If AnyDVD can't decrypt streaming videos, I doubt anyone else can. Of course, there are lots of streaming videos with little or no copy protection but I'm not talking about those. I'm talking about videos on Netflix, iTunes, Vudu, etc. They have lots of videos that are not on Blu-rays, and...
