Cannot copy Homeland

[durkinjt]

I have been tryin to make copies of Homeland,(bluray), I bought the first year. Got the first disk copied, the 2nd and third disk are killing me, went thru about 8 disks, all good Verbatims. I tried to just get decrypted on AnyDvd and would no recognize either disk.I have two burners tried both. The whole thing finishes and even has a good quality read. Then when put in the Blu ray player, nothing , tried it on two players. BTW this was all in the BLU Ray copy mode. Using a 26G Verbatim in DVDFAB full movie. The disks are not faulty, played on two blu ray players.

So you can RIP it to your hdd and then burn it? But the burned blu-ray wont work?

I would rip the blu-ray to your hdd with anydvdhd and burn with imgburn.

Thanks for the reply. When trying to use anydvdhd it replies that the disk it is is not ready, tried on two computers. The disks played on two blu ray players so I doubt if they are the problem.

Can you play it with a software blu-ray player? Probably not if not anydvdhd can't read it all.

Then is either your blu-ray drive crappy or the blu-ray disc corrupt. All blu-ray movies should work on computer blu-rays.

Homeland came out long enough ago (Aug. 2012) that I think we can rule out that AnyDVD doesn't understand the encryption on it. Just wanted to point that out.

It could be your drives. I have one LG and one Pioneer in my system. The LG is the much fussier of the two and I have had to use the Pioneer for ripping several times because the LG just barfed on certain discs.

Do you have UDF 2.5 installed on your computer? That Anydvd message could mean your version is not up to date or your not connected to the internet which is needed to get updated disk information.

I have 3 Dvd bluray burners, it will not work on any of them, the disks play on 3 different bluray players, I have the latest version of Anydown.

[Baldrick]

Tried on a different computer?

And you can rip/play other blu-rays fine?
And they are commercial blu-rays?

Yes I can rip other Blu-Rays, not sure what you mean by commercial, TV made, maybe?

[poisondeathray]

Are you sure you have anydvd updated? There is a thread on their forum that deals with Homeland BD and problem is fixed on their end

One suggestion was to delete the cache file

Not a homeburned bd-r/re disc.

Then I guess you can't do much other then return the discs and say that they wont work on computers...but I doubt they will accept that.

Out of personal interest I did a Google search for "20th Century Fox," "Homeland," and "DRM." From what I could gather it seems that 20th has added some additional DRM that allows standalone Bluray players to play their disks if the player is new or has a firmware update (two new forms of protection updates. AACS MKB has been updated to v17 and BD+ to v5.). No additional details were given. Aside from "Homeland," they mentioned "Avatar" as another title that included their "new" protection.

I'm interested if you can PLAY the discs with for example TMT or PowerDVD (free trials available)?

If not then it doesn't sound good for my HTPC with a blu-ray...

I copied Avatar with no problem some time ago.
