Topic: Downloading Digital Copies

[scoob]

Has anyone tried downloading the digital copies included in some of the DVDs and BDs?  I tried doing it for Wanted and The Dark Knight BDs but both failed.  It told me that the serial key is not valid.  Is there another way to download the digital copy?

TIA

I tried my Jumper Digital Copy, successfully transferred it to my PC but I had Fox Digital Copy Customer Service reset my serial number first since it said that the serial number is already in use even though I bought the movie sealed.

Wrote a small tidbit of my experience with that here.

I encountered the "serial number not valid" message once.  I was redeeming my digital copy of Star Wars: Clone Wars in Mac format.  It turns out that this format requires an active iTunes account for a successful download.  I opted for the Windows format instead and the number enclosed with the dvd worked just fine.

Im not sure if the digital copies in DVD's are the same like the one in Bluray's, but make sure u download them right away cuz some have expiry dates....unfortunately for me, i wasnt able to download them in time..  :'( :'( :'(

I encountered an error message when trying to play the digital copy of Hellboy II. I was able to download it but upon viewing it on Windows Media Player, I was prompted with an error message that I have already exceeded my limit. First time ko pa lang sya na download tas ganun pa ang naging error message.

Any thoughts on how this problem can be rectified? I tried contacting the customer support of Universal Studios via their e-form and still have not received any solution to the problem.

Usually contact them through the information on the digital copy flyer. Yung sa akin, inemail ko lang yung Fox, weekend pa nga sila nagrespond.

I tried it once with my Tropic Thunder copy, pero naisip ko kung papanoorin ko naman sa PC, why not just pop the disc in? Kahit naman I place it on my iPod hindi ko naman papanoorin, naliliitan ako sa screen.

thanks for the reply. Was able to rectify the problem. They reset the authorization code.

actually, the copy is already on the disc, you can copy paste it... problem is it needs serial number when you try playing it.
