Quoting James:
Quote:
6.3.1.1 2008 01 22
- New (DVD): Added hooking of the IDvdInfo2::GetDiscID interface. All 32-bit
  applications which use DiscIDs will retrieve the correct DiscID, even if
  AnyDVD is running (e.g., Windows MCE 2005, Windows Media Player, Invelos
  DVD Profiler, MyMovies, etc.)
  Note: This feature might not work correctly with X-Protect or other heavily
  corrupted discs. Blame the manufacturer of the disc....
  This feature is currently only supported for 32-bit applications.

Any particular reason you changed the name of the executable from AnyDVD.exe to AnyDVDTray.exe?

No problem...just noticed it when looking through my registry.  Maybe it changed in 6.3.0.10...




Quoting James:

Yes, the reason is because DVDProfiler "blacklisted" AnyDVD.exe, because AnyDVD altered the DiscID values returned from IDvdInfo2::GetDiscID
Now AnyDVD hooks IDvdInfo2::GetDiscID so there is no reason for it to blacklist it in DVDProfiler, and no reason to unblacklist and version check either (no IDvdInfo2::GetDiscID support from AnyDVD.exe, IDvdInfo2::GetDiscID support from AnyDVDtray.exe)

WOW!!!! I am impressed, although it took him a LOOOOOONG time to recognize his problem and fix it. I don't think it was Invelos or Ken that blacklisted ANYDVD, I think it was THIS COMMUNITY once we became aware of the issue. Good job, gang, ^5s all around.

While this is great news, it still needs to be blocked if users are running an older version.

As things are now, the older version will still be blocked.

The older version is named AnyDVD.exe and that is blocked by DVDP.

The new version is named AnyDVDTray.exe and that is not blocked by DVDP.

Disclaimer: I haven't installed the new version yet so I can't say for myself that it's true

Clever response.  Keeps the nonfunctional one blocked and lets through the functional one.
