Re: The VUDU Thread - News, Bargains & UV Codes
French Connection/II, didn't work for me, cause Fox. The Conversation was a no go for me as well. And you have Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. That came with a UV code. Did you sell yours? Most of those other discs worked for me.
But try French Connection and Conversation. They may work now, who knows.

Re: The VUDU Thread - News, Bargains & UV Codes
just did a cool 150...
the only weird thing i came across was with The Conversation. it was recognized as 2 other FFC movies, Tetro and Apocalypse Now, but not The Conversation. go figure...
Hellboy bluray came up as The Punisher (Jane) which again was weird...
what exactly does this mean?
"Thank you!
We are in the process of manually verifying your disc. We will contact you as soon as the verification is complete.
For instant conversion you may take this disc to your nearest Walmart store."
some Blurays were also recognized as DVD and had to convert to HDX. that was a little annoying...
and no Miramax was perplexing...

You can try the CinemaNow or Flixster software (see my post above). It might work with those. Or you can take the disc into Walmart, and have them do the conversion.
Make a list of the Blu-rays that were incorrectly charged the DVD rates, and submit at ticket to Vudu Support. They will refund you for the overcharge.

I upgraded Flash on my PC and AIR was already up to date (there was a forced install when I installed Vudu to Go) and it still doesn't work on my Vista machine. I login from the app, and the screen turns black and nothing happens. If I start clicking around, it asks me to login again.

Very addicting. Having all my movies digitally is so convenient. I'm at 417 now

Re: The VUDU Thread - News, Bargains & UV Codes
I'm at about 1200, but I don't find it addicting. I seem to be at the whim of my family who randomly requests stuff over the past couple of years or so. So I mostly do it for them. But nothing will ever beat my blu collection at home. And it's hard to appreciate a good Criterion on digital only. Makes me glad they're not part of this.

I'm at about 1000. Not addicted but love the convenience. Still not sure what happens if Flixster or Vudu goes out of business tho.

If Vudu dies, you'll only lose the non-UV content. The important thing is that UltraViolet survives and there is at least one UV provider out there.

Without Vudu, the rest of the UV landscape is worthless crap. Sure, you'll still have your movies. But who wants to use CinemaNow or Flixster? Both have subpar video/audio and awful UI. Plus they have much smaller libraries than Vudu. So even if you own the UV rights to a particular movie, there might be no service that carries it.
I'm hoping that if Walmart decides to drop Vudu, another company will buy them out. Or the studios themselves will step up and do something to rescue UV. Because without Vudu, UV will die.

I wonder if something's blocking it (firewall, AV, etc)?

Re: The VUDU Thread - News, Bargains & UV Codes
just got an email from Walmart with a complimentary $10 vudu code for me to "try Vudu". Uh, thanks, my 1000 vudu movies and I appreciated it and will definitely "try" this Vudu thing!

Another rejection for "African Queen" one disc version.
This disc 'The African Queen [Commemorative Box Set] [DVD/CD] [With Book] [Blu-ray] - BLURAY - 1952' is not eligible for Disc to Digital conversion.

Are they the rereleased versions by Warner? I've noticed that the Paramount blu-rays that were rereleased by Warner are not recognized by Vudu for some reason. But if I get the old paramount blu-ray version, it works.

Re: The VUDU Thread - News, Bargains & UV Codes
Superman should work. Forgot to do that one actually. However mine's the UK set. But, a long time ago I popped in the UK set of the Bourne movies and they worked. So I guess maybe some Region free UK stuff works. But the Hong Kong releases don't, and those are Region A.

Re: The VUDU Thread - News, Bargains & UV Codes
If people are going to start posting discs that don't work, then it's a good idea to move the discussion to another thread. There's 1000's of discs that don't work with the D2D software. And this thread will get filled up really quick.
Or better yet, post them over in the Vudu Forum instead. They have a thread with 1200+ posts listing the titles that don't work.
