After all that, I got to the point where Corel says I'm downloading the latest key but it just hangs there.Īfter reading several other forums, I opened WinDVD as the Administrator by right-clicking the application. I updated to the latest version of WinDVD from Sony, got an account from Corel and made Corel a trusted site. This borders on fraud and Sony should take more interest in maintaining their integrity. The part that gripes me the most is that I have been a very loyal and happy Sony customer for 25 years and this very un-Sony like. Seventy dollars is a good percentage of the cost of an actual player (component) nowadays. As you might have guessed, I have just discovered the exact same problem that Sharkbyte encountered and I, too, am not a happy camper. In this case, the 'upgrade' is actually a patch.

As Sharkbyte correctly asserted, the very least Sony should do is provide to those paying customers who have asked, an upgrade to the next closest version that functions.
If that's not false advertising, I don't know what is. In essence, they have advertised functionality in their product that does not exist.

The only solution they can offer is for the user to make a substantial purchase of a software product other than the one they pre-installed. Sharkbyte's point was that Sony admits that they have no solution to the problem with the software they have pre-installed. Sony is not going to pop for the newest version. Just as if I wanted the newer Adobe Photoshop Elements.I. Possibly they will find a way to deal with this. Why do I need to pay to fix it? I am waiting for a phone call from Sony support in San Diego. I bought my VGN-AR825e because I could play Blu-Ray disks with Dolby 5.1 surround. If they wanted to fix the problem they could find a way to provide users with an upgrade to WinDVD9. I have been on the phone with them every other week for 2 months and there does not appear that there will be a solution provided by Sony because nothing has changed.

How long have they been saying this?Ĭan anyone recommend a better play NOT from Corel that will handle 5.1, 7.1 and DTS? Sony's level 2 support is aware of the inability for AACS files to update from Corel's website issue and they admit it is a problem with WinDVD 8 and said I could pay for WinDVD 9 because that might fix the problem. Sony support states they hope to have a fix soon. Sony's support said if you select no to many times, you will get a Error 10 message. If you select NO to updating the AACS key it will play the disk. It fails to update the AACS key form the Corel and will not work if you select YES from the pop up that launches when you open the player. WinDVD 8 came preinstalled with a new Sony VAIO VGNAR825E I purchased yesterday. I need a player with at least Dolby 5.1 surround. Arcsoft has been the best with releasing updates in a timely manner. As Dadkins has stated, Arcsoft TotalMedia Theatre is probably the best software player on the market to date. What floored me was that Corel did release a press release in Jul 08 stating that this functionality would be available immediately through OEM software, but it's current retail customers would have to wait until early '09! Other users have also reported that newer Fox discs (w/ new BD+ encryption) won't play on the player and until Corel releases an update there's nothing we can do, but wait. The retail version of the player also doesn't support BD-Live.

They've been slow (or maybe nonexistent is the proper term) on player updates and have only released one patch to date.

Model: Sony VAIO VGN-AR630e Blu-ray player: Intervideo WinDVD BD for VAIO What happened: - New VAIO, everything installed (windows vista) - Using Blu-ray dvd, WinDVD automatically opened - Message popped up saying AAC key expired - Redirected to website (Corel) - Now WinDVD opens and plays ordinary DVDs but does not even keep the application open for more than 10 secs when the Blu-ray is inserted Please help! Thanks so much! You might also consider upgrading the pre-installed WinDVD to WinDVD 9 Plus Blu-ray: I'd stay away from Corel's WinDVD 9 Plus Blu-ray if I were you. I'm a newbie and I'm having some problems playing Blu-ray DVDs on my new vaio.
