Hi diane,

Please try to download 3.1.3.2 to see the result.

I think your internet connection may have problem so that download is not finished.

Best Regards,

Thanks for addressing these problems so quickly! This shows again why DVDFab support is unequalled.

Outstanding work you guys, have been spreading the DVDFab word again here -

Possible buck with german settings DVDFab Platinum 3.1.3.2:

Testet with:AMD Sempron 2400+ 1,6Ghz, 1GB Ram and newest XP Professional:
Choosen profile: generic.avi.xvid.audiocopy

1) "Render Subtitle to idx/sub" to copy older selfmade non protected DVDs (i.e. DVDShrink) idx/sub doesn't work. If abort 3 times DVDFab hangs up or closed without Email window or crash report.

2) Now an old buck again: idx/sub doesn't work with original discs. DVDFab Platinum closed itselfs before encoding without crash report.

If choosing "Render Subtitle to video" it works fine in any case. No crashes if abort more than 3 times, no matter if old copys or original disc.

Thanks Fengtao and Ting.

Hi maineman

I just purchased 3.1.3.0 last night....so far it is working fine but I would like to upgrade however, you mentioned to me that I should save my key in many places i.e. cd. I have tried but I must be doing something wrong, it will not allow me to copy it anywhere...also before I upgrade, I would like to save version I have now just in case new upgrade doesn't work for me. Would appreciate how to do this.

When you download the file just choose " Save" then run the saved file. I usually save the .exe file to a folder called DVD Fab old versions.

I can't keep up with all these updates ...thanks Fengtao and Ting!

Hi Alan

Thank you so much for your very quick response, appreciate it

I will try saving it as you explained...after I save old version and move it to a new folder...will this keep new version from overwriting it or does it upgrade as a whole new set of files?

Baskets

I'm sorry but I have to offer a bit of a negative opinion here. My fear is it will be misunderstood so I want to be careful. I very much appreciate the updates and the way this software is kept up-to-date. And there is no other software out there that even comes close to DVDFab. I've bought. I've recommended it to many others who have bought it as well.

I expect frequent updates to keep up with various copy protection issues. There is no way anyone can anticipate all the issues "out there" with DVD's and copy protection. So frequent updates is a good thing. For copy protection.

What I am going to be critical about though is frequent updates for things that are bugs. And again I very much appreciate the openess of all involved with DVDFab regarding fixes, bugs, etc. It is a very customer centered software from beginning to end.

However I would like to see some time taken in regards to the core of this software so its bugs are squashed and stay squashed. It seems the fast pace is getting in the way of fixing things that ought to be eliminated. So one release fixes audio tracks that are playing back too fast like a chipmunk. The next release, the chipmunk voices are back. One release dvd'S burn fine, next release teh built-in burning piece doesn't work.

This is not good. There is fast and there is too fast. This software feels like its getting to the "too fast" pace in its releases.

Let's get the core of this software stable. Then frequent releases for copy protection updates are all we have to worry about.

I would say that some bugs might be caused by adding a new option/function at times, and is normal. I personally don't believe it's TOO FAST, as the WORST is you may have a bug for a few days to a week til a new version comes out, which isn't THAT big of a deal. And worst case is, just switch back to a previous version for a couple days til it's fixed again.
I used to program, and i know at times stuff just gets broken. It's never purpose, and sometimes it takes time til you figure out what exactly broke it, then can be fixed.
I love that they are constantly coming out with new versions. Sure, you may have a bug for a very short time, since they come out SO frequently, which is nothing unless we just don't have any patience at all.

Thanks guys for the update. Great work!

Just keep downloading the new versions as they come out. But keep the older .exe file in your folder of previous versions. When you execute the new version it will write over the last but you will still have the .exe in your folder.

you may have a bug for a very short time...

New bug, that's ok. And I agree with you in general.

But an old bug that was fixed before and comes back? In my humble opinion, that's not okay. That is telling me things are going too fast. When you don't take the time to keep fixed code in the final code, that's not a good way to do things.

You end up re-inventing the wheel over and over and over. And that's what some of this feels like to me, in their hurry to fix a current problem they reintroduce something that was addressed before and have to readdress it.

Its not like I'm going to use any other software. I'm sold on DVDFab as I've indicated. I'd just like to be sure that when I update I'm not going backwards at the same time. My opinion is that they should take enough time to make sure each update is moving forward. If we are seeing past issues coming back then maybe slowing down just a bit is a good idea. Then maybe some of those bugs that get addressed so very quickly, and we all agree this stuff gets addressed FAST, maybe those bugs wouldn't have to be addressed at all as we wouldn't see them.

As it is right now, when I run an update I am then looking to see if something else is broken. That is probably not a good nor the desired outcome of the update process. Maybe its just me.

Jim

Fantastic work, Fengtao and Ting!

Been away this weekend, and that's why I'm a bit late in getting off my mark.

Really do appreciate all the hard work on the part of yourselves and your team in keeping DVDFab updated like this.

Many thanks from the three of us here, and we'll see you again, then. Jim

Hi All,
it may be, that some people understand me wrong. That's why my english isn't well. (Wrong undertstanding by writing incorrect words, or so)

Please note, that is DVDFab Platinum is a great Software and nobody works not at all perfect (including myself). Fengtao and Ting gives best support you can find in the WEB. They need reports of errors or new protections to fix it. May be, that I have strange errors only. I will see it in the next updates.

Fengtao & Ting: This is the best program, i've ever buy, mistakes or not !
Please don't change your work, THANK YOU

Sorry but just keep D/L the new version is not enough!!!!!!!

I was c/b fine until I d/l the latest version. Now it will not complete a copy.

Originally it would just go away in the middle of a copy. After attempting an update which claimed to complete successfully it hangs at 26%.

I know things happen and you have to debug them but don't you think it might be good to include and icon that would un-install the latest revision and allow us to operate as we could before until you debug the issue with the update?

I personally saw few problems until the latest update. Now I cannot use the software. Something that works 80% of the time is better than something that will not work.

Signed Hung up in Alabama!!! Looking for the keys!!!

This is great, Fantastic work, Fengtao and Ting! Thanks so very much for the quick response

Hello CapnRon5969 and welcome to CD Freaks
If you are having trouble with DVDFab and you want to do a clean uninstall of DVDFab look below in my Signature there is info on how to do it on both XP and Vista, then you can re-install a version that worked for you

Hi alan1476

Thank you so much for your help.....

I copied both the program files and key onto a cd for safe keeping just in case my computer goes awry again and will now download the new version. What is strange is that 3.1.3.0 works just fine in my IBM computer w/xp pro but not in my toshiba laptop w/xp pro....it won't work at all. Doesn't want to recognize the disk that is in the drive....will upgrade and see if that solves that problem. Hope so...like to be able to use both computers for all my computering.

Another question, if you don't mind....I notice if I click on the key icon it opens up the program without my opening up the original program icon..am I going about it correctly? or doesn't it matter which way it is opened? Thought when I clicked on Key it would give me a register number but it just opens up the program...it works but would like to know if any steps are missing for it to work completely right.

Thank you again
