3 simple text lines, save, done.
Pretty sure you only need one line to access the OPD (ending IP address .62). That's all I used.

I merely signed out and signed back in on both of the my AnyDVD machines and the access to the key server started up.Yes, with the 3 other Slysoft ip addresses, unless I made an error.
As you can see, I have the lifetime licenses to all of the Slysoft products in my signature.
I'll reboot my PC and see if that'll work in a few minutes.
Ch3vr0n, thanks for the tip.There's a very simple reason why pinging key.slysoft.com doesn't work without the hosts file fix. A domain relies on DNS entries and it's exactly those that have been removed at the DNS level. That's why you tell the hosts file that a certain IP links to a domain.

Just giving Windows a kick in the 'nads from time to time helps
As long as you got Windows to cooperate you are doing good. Cheers!Hey, FurryGuy, ddjmagic PM'ed me and pointed me in the right direction, so I'm all set.
I'm going to have to do the same procedure that I just did with my Windows 8.1 Pro with Media Center PC and do it to my 2 laptops that also have AnyDVD HD installed on them (lifetime licenses, of course.)
The only issue I still have is the 12 Angry Men Criterion Collection Blu-ray.
I'll re-rip that one without Speedmenu later tonight and see how that turns out.Looks like your connection to the OPD is working fine now. 12 Angry Men looks like a different issue.
You could try running that disc without the Speedmenu enabled in AnyDVD, see if that works.
Tested a few last night, these are the ones that required opd:
ALL DISCS BELOW ARE USA RETAIL
Commando Director's Cut (2015) [Best Buy Exclusive Steelbook]
Birdman (2015)
SPECTRE (2015)
Robocop (1987) [2014 Remaster]
They are all USA Discs. Sorry, I shouldve mentioned that. I will edit my postHas anyone confirmed that a cached .dt1 from one person's AnyDVD can actually be used by someone else? I wasn't sure if they were encrypted based on your license key or something so they can't be easily shared...
samurai4k:
Those 4 movies (well, except Commando), or those U.S. retail discs? (Or rentals, another country, etc?)
Okay, kinda good news, and probably some bad news...
I grabbed a copy of Spectre to test with samurai4k's cache files. His Spectre file is 5f453a4b87c6.dt1 (continue reading, you'll see how I figured that out), with that file in my cache folder, Spectre would not decrypt, AnyDVD complained about needed the OPD (I had the network unplugged).
So, I plugged the network back in, and let it do it's thing. It created a new file: 124721091bbe.dt1 and decrypted Spectre fine.
A binary compare of my dt1 and samurai4k's dt1 confirmed the two files were 100% identical. I deleted my file, and renamed his to 124721091bbe.dt1, unplugged my network and re-inserted the disc, and it decrypted fine using the 'local database'.
So... We _can_ archive and share the cache files, but the file name is apparently different for each license (maybe even for each install, I haven't compared caches between two computers with the same license).
So the question is, how does AnyDVD determine the file name of the cache files? If that can be figured out, then we can collect a database of .dt1 files for everyone. If not, then you can really only collect your own...
This probably won't all be necessary anyway as I assume _something_ will surface to replace AnyDVD reliably... But just sharing information.

Hmm, that's interesting...I just checked my cache as I just did Spectre on Friday and it shows up as 5f453a4b87c6.dt1 as well. My copy is a US retail purchased from Amazon. I wouldn't be surprised if there could be different mastered discs which may need a new cache file, or cache name.
