Default Forrest Gump 4k Digital Code Redeem

I have a Forrest Gump 4k Digital Code sheet to redeem. Is this Paramount code dual redeem. What spreadsheet tells me that? I tried the code in itunes but it doesn't work. It will work in Vudu. I know I can go to the https://www.paramountdigitalcopy.com site and then it will generate an itunes code but will that burn the Vudu half of the code if it is dual redeem. I read that redeeming on a studio site will generally burn the other half of a dual redeem code.

What if I redeem on Vudu first and then redeem on https://www.paramountdigitalcopy.com/. WIll that work?

It depends. The older Paramount codes are 12 digits, and those are the ones that are dual redeem. You don't need to go to Paramount's site to get an iTunes code for those, those codes redeem directly in iTunes (and in Vudu or FN for the other redeem; as you note, using Paramount's site will kill the dual redeem).

Newer Paramount codes, including newer pressings of older releases are 16 digits and begin with P (for Paramount). Those are single redeem, not matter what you do.

There is no spreadsheet that tells you this. But that differing code style does tell you. The same applies to other studios, shorter code, dual redeem (Universal) or sometimes dual (Lionsgate). Longer code, single redeem (16 digits with U for Universal and C for Lionsgate).

To answer that last question, if 16 digits starting with P, then no. If you redeem on Vudu, you can no longer use Paramount's site to get an iTunes code.

It is a 16 digit code that starts with a P so it is signle redeem. Thanks for explaining this.

Also, if is a 12 digit code does it matter the order the codes are redeemed directly through Itunes and Vudu (Itunes first/Vudu 2nd or Vudu 1st/Itunes 2nd)?

To answer that last question, if 16 digits starting with P, then no. If you redeem on Vudu, you can no longer use Paramount's site to get an iTunes code.
The code is a 16 digit code with a P. If I did have a 12 digit code would it matter what service I redeemed it on first: Vudu or Itunes?

Thanks for explaining about the P, U, and C designations and code lenght. It was very helpful.

if its 12 digits it doesnt matter the order you redeem in as long as its directly in itunes and vudu, do not use the paramount redeem site for those or it will burn both redeems.
