Hi

Since the latest version of AnyDVD has been released, ive tried numerous dvd's that i own with various protection systems and this new version of AnyDVD does not show the copy protection system in use on the DVD disc anymore.

Previous versions would show things like RipGuard / Macrovision / Sony Arccos, etc, but this new version seems to hide the names of the copy systems all together!

Has anyone else noticed this? If this is the case then i would prefer if slysoft re-enabled the software so we are told exactly the protection system used on any dvd.

Hi

Below is the list or not list of protection form the dvd Boy Town - Region 4 - Roadshow - the back of the case has Macrovision written on it. The old version of AnyDVD would show the physical names of the copy protection.

Now out of 3 dvd's, one from Paramount, one from 20th Century Fox and one from Roadshow, not one shows the copy protection name. This is very odd.

No, it is not. :D
The discs only are CSS & APS (macrovision) protected (AnyDVD can't show APS, it just removes it).
