[quote=infoman;2027925]The discs I'm using do work - the movies play - it's just that the Clearplay DVD player doesn't recognize the titles and so it won't filter them. I can still watch them on it without any filtering. (With the exception of WB titles, which it does recognize and filter.)

OK I still think this is stupid technology - if you did'nt blink in time then you've already seen the rude bits & are going to hell anyway so whya not watch all of it....

but as to how it works -

Clearview uses a filter file - that's a list, painstakingly compiled by humans , of what frames to skip over dependent on your settings.

each list has a tiltle and your clearview dvd player has to have the downloaded filter file in it's little brain and able to match the title field to the inserted DVd in order to know what dvd it is editing.

so you need to get into what dvdfab does to the dvd title info and maybe learn how to edit that back to fool your player. or jsut stick to clone mode.

personally, the only use I can see for this technology is to run it in reverse. e.g. use it on porn movies to remove all the boring non sexy bits :-)

but each to his own - wikipedia, as ever, is your firiend when you need to know how stuff works. plus it has links to some fascinating speculation as towhat would be the shortest movie ever after being processed through clearview - reservior dogs, evil dead trilogy ???
