They may have done an invisible update. I'll be able to check in about an hour.

Thanks!!

Byte wise that is different than what Signals said it should be as well. Are you getting the correct checksum?

Actual size = 17.5 MB (18,452,800 bytes)
Size on disk = 17.6 MB (18,456,576 bytes)
Installs and runs like a top! I backed up Season of the Witch and made a movie for the iPad perfectly.

MD5 hash checksum = 34fc11c8c625426fb813fa9f25c5d2cc

down loaded many times and always the same size and checksum.

Does not install or uninstall like a top for me.

Does not match size or checksum as others have stated.

Not a big issue but strange. Using 8112 and just backed up Soul Surfer. Now that (8112) is running like a top.

I'll wait for the next update before I try installing it again.

You can close this thread if you want to because it seems as though I'm the only one having an issue with it. I'm not going to try it on my Win 7 boxes.

I may download 8115 later tomorrow to see if I can get matching sizes and checksums.

Thanks for everyones input.

I just downloaded it again and got exactly the same numbers as you

Something has changed since this morning.

Yeah, I didnt download it until this afternoon. Something must have changed like you said and it wasn't for the better.( at least for me)

I think there was an invisible update. I will post here when I find out.

I also cannot open any version of DVDfab since downloading 8.1.1.5!! I have also tried downloading 8.1.1.2 but cannot get it to work!!! HELP!!

[brendajc]

Update: I was able to get 8.1.1.5 to open but since the audio that is played in the preview frame sounds choppy, I tried going back to earlier QT versions. Unfortunately, once 8.1.1.5 has been downloaded there is no going back as none of them will open (8.1.1.2, 8.1.1.0, etc., it doesnt matter)

Well i am not saying that the file size has anything to do with someones problem.......i guess i should have posted the file size thing in another thread.......was an idea though.

As far as file size, i am just hovering my mouse over the file. I always check to see if it is close to the older ones. Vi$ta Ultimate 64 bit.

The title of this thread is misleading and confusing. I should have changed it earlier.

It is not terribly unusual for a program that is updated often to be smaller than the previous version. Programmers will often go through and remove entropy that is gained over time. I downloaded and installed this morning (Sat. 8.27.11) on my W7x64 system and all is well. As a matter of routine I uninstall the old version with the DVDfab uninstaller, scrub the registry enough times that there are no orphans left behind and scrub the prefetch folder before installing the new version. It takes a couple extra minutes but I don’t seem to have these bizarre problems. I have an XP SP3 machine so I’ll do my thing, install 8.1.1.5 and report back.

There was an invisible update, the correct size for the current download is 18,456,144 bytes.
