Re: What is the deal with the KEY?

I tried using the new key, and it just kept tripping the "too old" notification for no clear reason every time. I had to redownload the entire application (and force my Mac to let it open again), and it is now working. Just in case other people are getting a similar problem.

Re: Doctor Who - The Collection Rip Error

Yes, that is exactly what I was meaning. The Simplified Editions are not the same at all. They remove one of the most important parts of the releases (the production booklets) and use significantly-inferior packaging. No-one intelligent would wait two whole years for a worse product for no reason. ...

Re: Doctor Who - The Collection Rip Error

Sent that message without bothering to count - I knew it was around there somewhere. It's before 7AM here and no coffee. I have bought them all . That photo only shows 15. Two of them are wrong. Huh? I took that picture. There's 17. Are you referring to the fact that two of them are smaller than th...

Re: Doctor Who - The Collection Rip Error

I wouldn’t know. All I do know is that it does it with mine as well. It’s probably an issue along the lines of how the actual menu itself is usually a six-hour-long loop) as shown when playing it on VLC), but the disc reports the length based on the length of a single iteration with chapters for eac...

Hello, everyone. New poster here. I've been spending the past few weeks importing my Doctor Who DVD&BD collection onto external drives, but I keep running out of space too early and having to clear some other things from them to make space. The main culprit is that any episode with optional upda...
