Hi,
My first post here - I have the AnyDVD trial and considering buying it, great software, thank you.
My question is about recent postings on Doom9 that indicate that PowerDVD will downscale video even with AnyDVD HD if you dont have a HDCP compliant monitor / projector (see doom9 front page news 3/8 and this thread http://forum.doom9.org/showthread.php?t=123048). I dont have HDCP compliant hardware I must admit that when I compare VGA output and DVI with AnyDVD HD I dont see any difference, but I was under the understanding that AnyDVD HD tricks the HDCP detection so you should get full resolution? Can someone confirm if DVI (non HDCP) + PDVD 7.1 + AnyDVD HD = downscaling?
Another question before I part with my cash - what is the future of AnyDVD HD if the AACS LA start revoking the recently hacked keys? Does this mean that my "investment" in AnyDVD will only be able to be used on the older titles? Or will Slysoft follow the cat & mouse game of updating the software to use different keys? Which will mean that the end user will need to be constantly updating the software? This seems such an obvious question that does not appear to be answered in this forum, and apologies if my searching has missed it.
Regards,
Dean
