internet is required to open this blu-ray disk

[bonethang]

I also got the "Internet is required to open this Blu-ray disc" message for the first time. I do have an internet connection and I have turned Windows firewall off and added DVDFab to exception list. I have not had this problem before with other Blu-ray discs. Is this problem on my end or DVDFab?

[imadodgernut]

Yes it is a flaw. I burned Step Brothers and Star Trek yesterday, then when I tried to burn Transformers II the error came up. Now the software will not open any blu-rays, including Step Bothers and Star Trek. I also connected my computer directly to the modem, no longer using the router, as well as shut off Windows Firewall and still nothing. If it is not software error, how did I burn two movies without any issues, then now not be able to open the same titles?

[Chameleon]

Its not a flaw, its the way the program works, it has to have an internet connection to decrypt the new bluray movies, if you have that option enabled it will always need the internet. The key has to be sent over the internet. Its a flaw in your internet connection.

Cannot use dvdfab today - get the dreaded "internet is required to open this"...

this is a serious flaw in this software. I am now stuck sitting on my ass waiting for dvdfab support to reply to email, (usually not replying )
It could at least give a more correct error.

This might be a server issue on fengtao's end but I am only guessing.

[ericner]

It's happening again this morning. Turning off "check for updates automatically" didn't help. I'm using v7.0.3.0.

[ranciaes]

It has nothing to do with "auto check for updates". I haven't changed any settings and now is working fine again.

[fabfan]

This may have more to do with the server. As mine is now working with no changes to the settings. Would be nice if this error was corrected.

[Dirtydeedz]

Was having the same problem. I turned off the auto check for updates and now it works fine. Using 7.0.2.5

Hope this helps

That worked... wow.. that was so ez, who'd of thunk it...LOL

Thanks and I hope it helps the others as well and I always uncheck that as I check for updates on my own on a daily basis from the forum here

DVD fab i think only needs internet if the real disc is in drive, it doesnt need it if its from an iso..., right?

Give it a try and find out

[Dirtydeedz]

Ok, so I mounted a BR.iso to a virtual drive and everything worked as normal.
