Forking this to Linux would make this a must have software for everyone.

Getting msg of " Wrong name or password" ...not activating...pls guide to activate the same.

OK There seems to be a lot of problems so first the email that comes back probably goes strait to junk mail. Second don't use your email to register in the mail it shows you the email address to register. That said this is a most generous offer with two year registration. and a fine DVD / blue-ray player. there are so many free ones that I find the 60.00 price tag on this ridiculous but in standing with with most offerings of DVDfab their way overboard on the pricing of all their offerings. I think they need to rethink there whole business model lowering there prices would make them whole lot more money.

Got the email still no activation Key

Let's hope I don't get spammed or end up with ransomware on my computer

Anyway, I have uninstalled the software as a precaution...

received the email and password, however they would not activate the app, all I get is "wrong name or password" message

For 99.9% of all that I would hope to play, VLC does the job perfectly well and with and in a market where there is a good range of free players, I can't really see where most paid ones really have anything to offer that is really worth paying for.

This could be one of those cases with email from certain domains being rejected ? (Yahoo was the goat, last time.) I left my email addr. at the designated place -- twice -- and hours later: Nada, Zip, No Response. Changed to a different browser and left an alternate-domain email, and received the info right away. It applied and activated via the standard Cut & Paste, No Problemo. I'm guessing that everyone is getting the same reply info, which surely won't remain a secret for long.

Some have asked "but what do I do for BR ?", if the computer did not come with such an optical drive. In that case, if you wanted the easier way out, I can heartily recommend the LG Super Multi Blue external. It supports both e-SATA and USB connection, but you'd probably want to go e-SATA. (I'm a private user, not affiliated with any company, and will always give the Good, the Bad, or the Ugly about any product, straight up.) Since I got mine quite some time ago, I don't even know whether this model is still on the market. I'm hoping today's giveaway will prove to be a good alternative to the Cyberlink PowerDVD Player software that came bundled with the drive, since that player is (deliberately) limited and kind of annoying in several respects.

Been over an hour waiting for activation email. Is this just a ploy to get my email address to spam me to death?

Why do you make everything so complicated? I've been trying to activate my copy of your software for several hours without success. Can you help me?

I received the email, but can't find where to enter the information. The program seems to be working properly.

2 hours still no email from them, no key

Is this similar to their other software offers where you have to download all the added trialware?

Tried 2 different emails, but after hours still no password

Cool Beans! They finally emailed me and I got it working,! Here you go hope this helps you guys !! Let me know :-)

again i have not received the password.

DVDFAB ,mostly Just Ok player and products to me, have been testing DVDFAB player & downloader products versions since last year, but even their latest player version is still lacking hot features that Free media players have, to justify their high price.
**Have emailed their support as potential buying 1st time client several times, no one has ever bothered to reply, so they alos have poor, NON-Existent support.
Unless missed still could not find any of these hot options in this player:

*Still no (Superhot common feature) like a (Video and audio Crossfader) to watch & mix, or fade out end live or music and Karaoke videos together, that a lot of people are doing these days

**Still no Audio normalizer option, for low and high volume songs, so if convert all videos or songs from , all volume are not all over the place.

***Player still needs more useful video and audio enhancements features

****Still even DVDFAB latest Player version cannot even open and save in most common M3U/M3U8 playlists format, even though most free media players can do this hot basic option.

I had to do the type in code to get it to work and I am very happy with it. I already have the DVD Copy software and have enjoyed it for years. It is the best quality copy software I have ever used. If I had a Bluray player I would get that copy package as well. Great software from a great company.
Their help desk if full of great people that do just that. They help you.

NO Email, does someone have the Key, usually no problem with gotd?
Thanks everyone and Good Luck !

I downloaded the player, installed it have full control over playback options, such as subtitles, audio, video ratio aspects. Everything seems to be in working order.

So not sure if the devs had corrected something in the installer, or GAOD did something but I am right now watching the second half of Stephen Kings Rose Red.
Sound is good, picture clarity is good.
I'm not sure where I' am supposed to put in email and a password, or is there a key code I need to fully activate it???

Have waited 5 hours for activation password....nothing showed up yet!....Still waiting! (and yes...I have checked Spam files!)

Does DVDFab Player Version 5.0.1 play ISO files? Version 2 did, but Version 3 did not.

Well I never have problems with installations but today I am not receiving the email. Yes I entered it correctly and checked spam folders. has now been 20 minutes and no email.
I already own one software title from DVDFab so I tried my existing password which it looked like it took but program still says expires today.

Seven hours after today's giveaway is posted, there are 17 comments and only HALF of a comment is about the actual player...

The registration process is a little more complicated than usual, but manageable. I tried 4 commercial Blu-ray discs, the sound starts playing, no video, than after 10 seconds the sound starts skipping. I tried skipping forward and back, no video on any setting (different aspect ratios), just skipping sound. Thumbs down.

If I already have DVDFab installed because I have other licenses, can I just enter the GOTD license code to enable this feature?

Also had the invalid email address / password. We had the same problem with another DVDFab giveaway last week. It took them nearly a day to clear it up, but it was also a week long giveaway.

If you still have an optical drive surely you would have the software to use it by now?
My optical drives are in the bin along with the VHS and Philips cassette.

Manually typing in the password instead of copy and paste gets activation done.

ok so I followed all the directions as per email and it will not activae at all keeps saying "wrong email/password.
anyone have any ideas on this

No issues with install and registration. My current Blu-Ray player is ancient so a name for comparison would not be fair. This beats it in almost all regards. I "tested" with a movie that I have both DVD and Blu-Ray. I watched Blu-Ray first which meant that the DVD copy was excruciating to watch. Especially with captions enabled. The Blu-Ray picture was excellent. The sound was much better than the sound from my other players that do Blu-Ray. Moving the cursor to the bottom of the screen pops up the controls. More extensive controls and the setting menu are accessed by a right click.

One odd (to me) glitch that I found and tested three times on the Blu-Ray is that the player froze if I clicked and advanced position on the timeline a SECOND time. The first time, instant jump. The second was a freeze.

I have not received the password after installation.
I have verified spam.

Activation worked fine for me - once I realised it is 'not' your own email address you use.

D/L and installed fine.
Email and reg code provided in email does not activate software.
Waste of time. Uninstalled.

Email and password not accepted.Why?

Only DWD-RW on my Pc.

How play Blu-Ray discs on it?

Windows cannot complete the extraction.

The destination file could not be created.

Over an hour and still not received registration.

Download, install ok. entering a password.
Start activation
The E-mail or Passworld can not be empty

tried 3 times but get the error wrong name or password

Developer, thank you for the generous 2 year licence. With updates. Please could you spell out what will happen in 2 years time?
Will the program stop working altogether, or will it simply reject updates?

Many GOTD users have asked this kind of question for years and it surprises me that GOTD don't routinely ask for this information to be included.

I hope you can find time to respond.
