DVDs: All DVDs should continue work. OPD is only used to speed up things, it is optional.
HD-DVDs: All work.
Blu-Ray AACS: AnyDVD contains data for roughly 130000 discs, these will continue to work. Discs not included in AnyDVD will need the OPD. OPD results will be cached locally, if you copy the cache, you can move it to another PC.
Blu-Ray BD+, 20th Century Fox: Recent discs (1-2 years?) need OPD. Older titles work. OPD results will be cached locally, if you copy the cache, you can move it to another PC.
Blu-Ray Java protection (mostly Lionsgate): Recent discs (1 year?) need OPD. Older titles work. OPD results are not cached.
Blu-ray cinavia: Will continue to work with current players & software.

| | Posted: | | | | Glad to see support here for SlySoft. I was online right when the closure happened and didn't make a thread here figuring most people would give "good riddance they were pirates anyway" type responses.  | | | | 99.9% of all cat plans consist only of "Step 1." |

The only important thing to discuss here is the alternatives to AnyDVD HD. Without that, it will not be possible to add new movies to my "images from movies" site...
I guess there is DVDFab Passkey, but I really don't know of much else that works similarly to the way AnyDVD HD did. And there's no guarantee that won't be shut down at some point too. There is a free trial for 31 days. For my purpose, not sure if the Lite version will work (I don't copy movies, just use it for screen grabs), so I'm going to try it beyond the trial date. So far, I used it on a new title and it worked just fine. | | | | Last edited: by The Movieman |

http://copyright.gov/1201/2015/fedreg-publicinspectionFR.pdf I just went through the DCMA I've read the exemptions. It's a pretty broad brush to include what you or anyone here's reason for a need to unlock a decryption program on a disc. |

| | Posted: | | | | When I buy a disc, I want to copy it onto my storage. I don't tolerate any other usage any more.
I did not download one single film, which was available on DVD, before the AACS (and the DCMA) establshed a copy protection preventing me from storing the content on my storage! Now we are back in those dark ages, where the discs have no value for me... | | | | Complete list of Common Names • A good point for starting with Headshots (and v11.1) | | | | Last edited: by AiAustria |
