Thanks for the update.
My 2 cents, I was thinking about getting anydvd, but all these hours I'm working this week, won't be seen till my first paycheck after the new year, 2 Jan. Oh well, guess I'll stick to dvdfab platinum.

Yall are going to be sorry for not getting ANYDVD now, much as I am sorry for not getting DVDFab Plat when free updates for life was around. I got it but w/o life updates. You need BOTH, sooner or later; and both these programs deserve the money spent for the time they spend updating them, so on Tuesday we can back up our DVDs! JM2C

I am still on the fence, but after receiving a little cash for Christmas. I am leaning hard toward the purchase. I am like Garmoon with Platinum, waited too long and missed out on lifetime updates. I don't want to be regretting not pulling the trigger here as well. So I figure sometime before the 1st, I will be a proud owner of AnyDVD.

Anydvd is great. I think though they're drawing a lot of attention from mpaa, sony and anyone else as posted on the recent bd+ resecured thread. It's ok to stick it to these guys, but I'd lay low while doing it. Better to let sleeping dogs sleep. Fab goes on w/their business but not so engaging or adamant about what they're doing. The renewal fee for Fab Plat is peanuts. about $9.99 or w/e.
Whether Blu-ray sticks around or not is irrelevant, but a new hd format might be. If Anydvd says they'll support w/e comes out that's great. If the big boys get really riled up and will their way into something like what happened to ripit4me that's another story. Worst case scenario you'll have something that'll break at least something for the rest of your days whether updated or not. I've been on the fence myself.

Garmoon, I own 2 registration codes for dvdfab, and have only used one to install it on my desktop and my laptop. I have been holding onto the second code as a back up.

Thanks guys
In case you haven't seen this in the Bangkok thread. To get AnyDVD to work just disable A1 scanner in DVDVideo settings. Then it all works right. Anydvd will open disc in seconds. Don't forget to reset A1 after.

Just wondering if anyone else has had a problem installing this one??
For me, the install goes through as normal, but when I click on the DVDFab icon, nothing opens.. Checked the Task Manager to see if it was running and right after I click the icon, DVDFab.exe does show up, but immediately vanishes from the active Processes list..
Tried uninstalling and re-installing and still the same.. Uninstalled and re-installed v 5.2.2.2 and its working like a charm.
Maybe a corrupted install file???

I had no issues installing this update, nor any other for that matter.
Perhaps you should do a complete, clean uninstall (including a registry cleaner when everything is removed) and then install the new update.

Hello my Afterdawn Gurus and Mentors!
Well time has marched on and I have had to march with it. My beloved DVDShrink and Ripit4me have hit the wall on some of the newer movies, (I do NOT LIKE Sony!) and to keep in step I just invested in the DVDfab Platinum software. Up until now I have used nothing but free software, but this seemed great on the free trial so I jumped.
Having said all of that, I learned years ago when I was a bright shiny newbie that learning how to use a tool right is best done by asking the Afterdawn crew, so here I am.
I first did a search for threads on the DVDfab5 software, and after looking at a few this seemed like the right one. I hope so, and if not someone will surely shift my post to the thread that will allow me to ask the questions I'm having. But most of them have risen from reading this thread, so here goes.
The way I have been using the program is to rip the movie to my hard drive. Then I take VobBlanker and discard the "junks". After that I hit it with DVDShrink to fit it, and then burn with my old reliable Nero. Often I just do a "Movie Only" when shrinking, but it varies with my interest in the extras.
One thing I saw here tonight is that it might also benefit me to use FIxVTS as well. I have used it all the time when I followed the Ripit4me guide by arniebear. But I honestly never knew exactly what it did, and even when I read the guide for it I still don't really get it, other than it provides some kind of cleanup function.
So what I want to know first is if I'm using the DVDfab Platinum to its best advantage. Next, if the sequence of use that I have described is ok, or should be improved upon by making changes. After that, if I should add FixVTS in the sequence of my process. And if so, should it be before or after VobBlanker?
Last, years ago I tried Anydvd and it completely slowed down my computer when I did a free trial to the point I had to give up on it. Yet some here have expressed that it is better to have both tools, DVDfab Platinum and Anydvd. It would seem to me that they do the same thing, and I'm cheap. So what is the reason to have both instead of just one or the other?
OK, enough for now. But as always, thanks so much in advance for your help. There is no better advice found in cyberspace than the crew at Afterdawn!!
Sincerely,
Fryerider

Actually had tried doing the complete uninstall/re-install and still didn't work.. (I run 3 junk/reg cleaners as a rule: CCleaner, Advanced Windows Care Pro, & Vista Manager --- each one seems to pick up on different things, so pretty sure everything was cleaned out).
Anyway, just saw the post for the next updated version 5.2.2.6 Beta and this one installed without a hitch.. So, not sure what was going on, but back in the game with the latest up-to-date tools. (AnyDVD was also updated yesterday to 6.5.1.0)

One good case for having AnyDVD was the fact that it was the only thing that worked on Tuesday afternoon (on the disc I had)after the A1 scanner was disabled. DVD FabPlat never could open the harder DRM copy I had- with any options given here on Tuesday.
As for slowing down your pc, I can't imagine why? I've never experienced anything like that and Any is loaded 90% of the time.

You should have DVDFab set to notify you when updates are available. Then you won't be behind. :)
