Blu-ray Woes: Youth without Youth

[Sirandar]

Blu-ray for PC still has issues.

After almost half a year ..... things are just as bad.

Rented "The Other Boleyn Girl" and suprise suprise it didn't play. Chugged away for 30 seconds and then stopped, no crash, just stopped.

Did the whole update reinstall song and dance and still no play.

Probably something to do with WinDVD "AACS update" and revoked keys .... a window is supposed to pop up and it doesn't.

Take home message: recently pressed BD still may or may not play and spending 4 hours updating to try to get it to work may or may not be successful.

As of Oct 2008, Buying or renting <6 month old titles is still a gamble
