Maybe you saw it somewhere else? I could be wrong though. Is this quote 1551 from Balthazar2k4 the reference to some certified drives working at some point? In time this might improve. Granted, it's only a 1080p laptop. Actually, it kind of is. I honestly feel for them.
The producers and manufacturers of all that stuff made a good profit. It works only on 64-bit Windows. Ultrahdclub really know what they're doing and never do fake release. Go to any torrent site and take a look at the copies floating around. It's not a matter of being impossible, it's a matter of the studios being lazy and assuming the content protection provided by player makers alone would be enough.
It is the lossless audio and video steam. People love to steal content, period. But then others in the family asked what happened to this that or the other thing and I'd explain how I removed them. Anybody who does have the key will be able to unscramble it, retrieve the original data, and then do anything with it -- including copying that data, posting it on the Internet, or what have you. Why bring along all the junk? Life breaks free, it expands to new territories and crashes through barriers, painfully, maybe even dangerously, but, uh.
In other words it isn't 1:1. And of course recommendation on what drive to buy outside the United States as some of you already kindly did, thank you!! We are still pretty early in the game. Folks have been posting using test files in various stages. Actually, it kind of is. Too much hassle with bugs and paid updating.
Coming from a decent 1080 display to a decent 2160 with those same blu-rays in upscale is the difference between night and day. Surely it's a very, very small percentage. Cyberlink also has a testing software, not sure if it covers the drive, though. Aside from decrypting, they do not do the same thing at all. I'm sure the majority will stay content popping discs in a dedicated player as it is by far the most economical inconvenience up until discs need to replaced due to no backup for one reason or another.
The playback device does not need to be the ripper. Content owners want a system where parties are authorised to read the decrypted data but not copy it, and there is technologically no way to do that, because once you're able to read the decrypted data, you're automatically able to save the data you read and copy it somewhere else. Take a look at which files have 100 seeders vs. . It will probably make the wiki page. Some like all in one to keep multiple devices to a limit but it's not a requirement. Thanks for letting me know.
Unless there's a sharp, measurable decline in sales, I just don't see them pulling support. I almost agree with you but disagree with ripping in concept simply because to date it has required breaking the law to do so; now that most every movie comes with a digital copy, there should be less need for rips. The amount of revenue received for doing all that hard work might not be worth the effort. ? Next time, maybe they won't even give Cyberlink certification for PowerDvd. I like having alternate ending choices. I would almost guarantee it's lying.
Refer to my previous post above for the min system requirements. Out of curiosity, if file playback did not exist would you rip a stripped down version of the original disc, burn it to a new disc, and pop that in a dedicated player from now on or burn it 1:1? I recommend you do not buy any hardware now in the hope there will be a crack anytime soon. Encryption works there generally because those third parties aren't given they key. Allows you to remove or skip Studio Logos and warning messages. I would take that bet against you.
The vast majority of people don't even think about downloading, they just buy a disc an plop it in they physical player. Encryption works exactly as it's supposed to. None the less, this is huge blu-ray news. See the changelog for their latest round of betas. Some movies have multiple keys, likely as a result of different disc releases.
