Re: VUDU AT HOME: DISC-TO-DIGITAL Bugs?

Nothing seems to work for me. I'm running vudu @ home on windows 8. I've tried several DVD's and nothing worked. I got frustrated and quit.

All DVD's
Gladiator(signature selection)
Bourne Identity(collectors editon)
Bourne Supremacy
Bourne Ultimatum
Braveheart
Matrix
Matrix Reloaded
Matrix Revolutions
Mission Impossible
Mission Impossible 2 and 3.

All were reported as unrecognized discs.

Re: VUDU AT HOME: DISC-TO-DIGITAL Bugs?

Same issues with Lord of the Rings, can't get Fellowship to work. Also Bourne movies. Men in Black (original) comes up as Men in Black 3 for some reason.

Re: VUDU AT HOME: DISC-TO-DIGITAL Bugs?

That's odd, because I just tried my ST:TMP Blu-ray and it offered me VOYAGE HOME instead (which I had already converted via D2D)! I'm not the biggest STAR TREK fan, but it really chaps my behind that I was able to convert all of them except the first one...

I have both the original series and next gen Blu-Ray sets and I was only able to convert Voyage Home, Undiscovered Country, and First Contact. EVERY other disc was recognized as Voyage Home.

VUDU AT HOME: DISC-TO-DIGITAL Bugs? / 2 Sided DVD (Widescreen/Fullscreen)

I have successfully converted over 100 of my DVD & Blu-Rays, including some of the ones others seem to have problems with, i.e. LOTR Extended Edition Blu-ray (all 3), Die Hard (first 3 are DVD, 4th is Blu-ray), and Star Trek movies #2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9, & 10 (all are DVD, not Blu-ray)

I have problems with ALL of my older, 2 sided, DVDs (not blu) that have Widescreen on one side and Full screen on the other. These include:

Jason and the Argonauts
Fifth Element
Ghostbusters 2
Batman (Michael Keaton version)

Other problems are:

The Fast and the Furious Tokyo Drift (blu-ray) comes up as the original The Fast and the Furious
Jumper (Blu-ray) comes up as Die Hard 4 (really)
Midway (DVD - unrecognized)
Soylent Green (DVD) comes up as the Omega Man
XXX (DVD - Unrecognized)
Star Trek VI (DVD - unrecognized)


Edit: My Bad...I just realized that LOTR Extended Bluray was an in-store conversion, not VTG (It's the last one I did before VTG became available)

Re: VUDU AT HOME: DISC-TO-DIGITAL Bugs?

I know its not ideal, but I was able to work around the issue with the Lord of the Rings Extended Edition blu-rays not being recognized as such. I used the first DVD of the Appendix for each movie and each showed the correct movie and in the extended version. Granted, I had to pay $2.50 for each in-home conversion instead of $1.00, but for these movies it was worth it to me.

I'll try my TMP disk tomorrow and see if Voyage Home comes up. Good info, especially if it works!

Re: VUDU AT HOME: DISC-TO-DIGITAL Bugs?

I had same experiences with Die Hard, harry Potter, and National Lampoon Vacation franchieses. All worked expect one movie in each. Last I checked that was still the case after several months.

Ehh what can ya do.

For me it's freakin' LORD OF THE RINGS. Yeesh.

What can we do? We can complain here, of course

Had you actually selected VOYAGE HOME when it offered, just FYI, the VUDU system wouldn't let you pay for conversion, as it is smart enough to know that you've already got it in your library. I appreciate that feature/protection very much.

Of course it shouldn't be mixing titles up in the first place. That's a bug.

As far as the original Star Trek movie not being eligible, while the others in that series are, goes -- I agree.
(I just got the Blu Ray box set, too)
I'm not a Trekkie myself (more of a Trekker) but the OCD completist in me is annoyed that I can't have them all, one by one, next to each other, in my UV/VUDU library! I'm thinking this is more Paramount's fault then VUDU though, for some reason they're not making it eligible for streaming...? So it's not really a D2D "bug."

Re: VUDU AT HOME: DISC-TO-DIGITAL Bugs?

I know it's already been mentioned, but thought I'd give an update for the new in home release; all the Star Trek Original cast and Next Generation movies except Voyage Home (IV) are recognized when inserting an appropriate disc from the collection. I bought the 'double feature' packs from Wal-mart and the system in the latest D2D at home release worked great on all but that one, and, of course, The Motion Picture which is not eligible.
