Opening a stupid old DVD fails!

[LignGeorge]

This is ridiculous,dvdfab 7.0.6.2 can't open NORBIT,it crashes and it's a DVD,
while v6.2.2.0 CAN.Also dvdfab passkey 7.0.2.0 CAN open this dvd.
Why dvdfab 7.0.6.2 fails?
Take a look:

It's really disappointing to be unable to open an old dvd.

Do you have passkey running in the back ground while it is trying to open the disc?
If so disable passkey and try again

No
Only dvdafab 7

Have you tried with Pathplayer turned off?

[Guest]

Have you tried with pathplayer disabled ?
With older movie pathplayer often needs to be turned off.

Have you tried it with any other title of older move to see if it reacts the same way.?

Probably all you have to do is alter your PathPlayer settings; if on, disable and vice versa.

If necessary, please run through the list of usual suspects here:

Tips on Troubleshooting Analyzing/Ripping dvds
and please clean the disc as instructed in #3, regardless of how good it looks

//Edit
Hey G & G, didn't spot you in time.
I'm thinking about creating another sticky here in this subforum, but then again, how many stickies of the same thread do we really need?
and will it help?

3 post by 3 mods all saying the same thing! Within 1 minute.

Great minds.............

[LignGeorge]

But the settings are excacly the same with v6.2.2.0 which opens it.

[LignGeorge]

With path player off works but why v6.2.2.0 opens it with pathplayer and without it?
Thanks anyway.

[GregiBoy]

Cos pathplayer in V7 is different that in 6 because of some of the newer titles and sometimes this causes a problem with older titles.
