    Hi
    This was a new HD-DVD title released today. I'm not trying to copy it....just trying to watch it. The disc loads, plays FBI warning, & displays two title clips (title 1, title 2)in a continuos loop. The chapter menu is grayed out (I believe there are 6 chapters on the disc) Basically you can't access any chapters, so it's impossible to watch the disc. I'm using WinDVD V8 OEM HD install for an Asus W2P laptop (Vista Ultimate). I enabled slysoft logging....below is the output

    (it carries on with the above loop over and over again.

    I tried various configs within AnyDVD, Allowing parental restrictions, allowing splash screens, skip menus, play movie with no menus...nothing worked

    Anyone have any suggestions....

    hddvd wont play

    you need to plug it back into your xbox 360(if you have one...if not use a mates 360 ) and then put the hddvd into the drive and update from microsoft(it will do this automatically...then return the drive to your computer
