Re: The VUDU Thread - News, Bargains & UV Codes

Added a few more titles to my M2D List last night(an assortment of yes and a couple of no's)...I had one interesting development, my Canadian releases of Whip It and Renaissance (Daniel Crag Noir Animated title) scanned right in. So, while I don't think they will start adding any of my Germany and UK discs, there are some Canadian ones slipping in.

Re: The VUDU Thread - News, Bargains & UV Codes

Not that it means much these days since we've had newer releases, but the UK blu's of the first 3 Bourne movies scanned in for me. This was a while back though.

Kedrix, nice site to check to see what's valid, so thanks. One thing I noticed is that you called out those 3D discs that only come up as 2D - I think there isn't a 3D disc that will transfer a 3D digital copy. I've tried most of mine and none have come out as 3D.

Yeah, I'm a sucker for spreadsheets so I tend to make them for anything that interests me.

*nod* agreed on the 3d, it was more notes for me and future 3d scans...since this is my own personal thing that I'm just sharing with everybody. But you are absolutely right, I'm jotting things down as I scan, looking for patterns.

Re: The VUDU Thread - News, Bargains & UV Codes

I may block out some time this weekend and start going through my UK other foreign releases. Having the ability to scan on the phone rather than popping in the disc one by one makes it easier to check. I'll post anything I find that works.

Yep, probably use it for either Red Cliff which is still on sale or 3 M2D's. Nothing else really on sale of interest to me honestly.

So is it still the app doesn't recognize your location as being at your home address?

What device are you using? Are location services turned on? Does the app have permission to see the location? Have you checked your location via a Maps app to see where it says? Does your address come up in a mapping app?

On my Android Phone, when I first ran the app on Android 6.0 it asked if the app could see my location, and I clicked "No." When I realized the app needed location info for M2D, I went into the Settings and gave the app permission to see location.

OK, can your iPhone find your address when you type it in? Does the Maps app show the correct location?

Re: The VUDU Thread - News, Bargains & UV Codes

On the Location Services, make sure it's set to Always On. If you have it on While Using the App, it will not work. Make sure it's set to Always On.

Change your billing address and ask your neighbor to bring your bill over?

Or go stand in your neighbor's yard and see if you can scan from there?

Or maybe even try it from your yard, outside. If you're inside and the iPhone can't get a GPS lock, it's going to fall back on cell signal triangulation, which can be less accurate.

Does the map look like the addresses are pointing to the wrong location?

Used Disc to Digital (on some titles we had that didn't come with Ultraviolet) to use up the Groupon Credits from last year (yes they expire within 1 year) and got 1 for free (the first one) and enough to cover the expiring part of the credit.

Are you stealing your neighbors wi-fi?

Don't know if you've tried:
Hard restart phone (hold down home + lock keys until Apple icon shows)
Use celluar (turn wi-fi off), or opposite if you never tried wi-fi
Delete/re-install app
Try a different credit card (cannot use Paypal), and/or log in to your credit card account and verify it is correct, including County, use the same address/punctuation in Vudu. - I had a problem a long time ago with iTunes verifying because they thought I was in a different county, I put in the other county I don't live in, and it worked. Also, remember it is your billing information under Payment Info, not shipping address under acct info.
