This is NOT encouraging, guys. What's going on over there at Cyberlink?! I'm really disillusioned...they usually have such good quality. Not with this software, apparently.
I am afraid I must agree with you. I am running Vista with a current Intel Motherboard. The internal sound which is usually excellant will not work either optical digital or analog through audio out. The sound drivers are Sigmatel for Intel and this is the sound system Intel is using for all their High End media systems. 7.1 surround. The driver is the latest from Intel. Worked great with 7.2 but I am afraid they threw even more DRM crap into this version that has killed the sound. The problems with Superman were there with 7.2 which is why I selected it to test 7.3. Program ran stable with Van Helsing (without sound) but that is a step backword not an advance. I think Cyberlink bit off more than they can chew.
At this point I think they should refund all 7 Ultra users their money as they have a product in release for 3 months that does not do what it was advertised to do. My patience is about gone.

Sorry man but I have to agree that it's on the Vista side. I refuse to run that on any of my main machines at this time. I WILL play with it but my curiosity has not been peaked to be honest.

Well if that doesn't suck hind titty. Uninstalled 7.3 and reinstalled 7.2. Now I no longer have audio in 7.2. Will have to use system restore to return to where I was before all this started. SH!!!!!!!!T
[/B]I am still testing as all of you are now and together I think we can find a solution to these issues. Patience is a virtue, this is brand new software, to tell the truth I expected worse.
I cannot agree with you more, but tell me, as of now how many people are using Vista and how many are using XP? I think the results will show that a new program (that I agree it should work with both systems, I agree with you completely), would get more bad feedback from XP users than Vista users, I am not saying this is an excuse or they even knew this was an issue, I tested on XP , others tested on Vista, I do not know their findings with Vista. But you also have to take into consideration incompatible programs that are installed on peoples systems. This will take time to figure out, its been that way with software since its inception and will not change. There are just to many variables to take into consideration to have a perfect product in a short amount of time.IMHO Vista was in trade then public beta for over 6 months before release. That is more than enough time for companies like Cyberlink, who are part of the consortium with MS to have a usable product. I am sure the issues are with Vista drivers but so what. IF you buy a new system it will come with Vista, if you get a high end system it most likley have 7.1 digital sound (such as mine) if you are selling software for early adapters you make sure your product will meet thier needs.
Just think about it this way. You make a NEW program, that requires top of the line NEW hardware, you specify NEW drivers, specific VIDEO and AUDIO cards and then you do your testing with an old operating system.
Far as I am concerned that doesn't fly
Thats probably because of the cynergys between BluRay and HD merged into one Edition.:agree: 88mbs vs 130mbsNow, I'm afraid of installing 7.3 since I'm using Vista. I could install it on XP since I'm running a dual-boot setup. But, then I have to transfer AnyDVD HD to XP from Vista also. If I do so, I also have to transfer ConeDVD and CloneCD to XP. Geez....
BTW, the size of 7.3 is 88.3MB instead of 130MB (7.1).
I cannot agree with you more, but tell me, as of now how many people are using Vista and how many are using XP?
Well, I just got the download link sent to me. I'll give it a try tonight when I get home from work. Here's hoping things improve...

Be careful, from what I've heard the new version breaks ReClock...
