Just a tip for future use, when you take a snapshot you dont need to use the whole screen, have you tried using www.photobucket.com

you're getting there, the screen on this page will continue to be wide to accomodate wide shots you already posted so next page will revert to normal size, saves scrolling.

edit out that first huge picture or resize it then i'll have a look myself, but not while that humugous piccy is still there, it's making navigating thru the thread a right pain :)

swy000,

Your first dvd decrypter log was only showing that it detected a dvd-rom drive and a dvdrw drive (line 5). It didn't say that the media was booktyped dvd-rom. The second log verifies it was booktyped dvd-rom. A good proggy to verify booktype has been changed to dvd-rom is dvd identifier http://dvd.identifier.cdfreaks.com/

I would use the eeprom setting that way the dvd-rom setting will be stored permanantly in the drive unless you change it again. Otherwise the setting is stored in the volitile memory and will need to be set to dvd-rom again everytime you shutdown your pc or reboot.
