![]() Unfortunately, I needed to buy version 12 for its 3D playback, else I'd be happy sticking with 7.3. I very much doubt that the settings are stored in the drive as PowerDVD 7.3 still plays Blu-ray just fine and tells me I have 5 changes left. No, I have not installed that software, nor do I need it all of my hardware is Blu-ray compatible (HDCP throughout, Blu-ray-specific video acceleration etc) and I have not imported any Blu-ray discs from outside Region B. Is there some way to reset PowerDVD's region change counter so I can set my region back to what PowerDVD thinks it should be so I can watch Blu-ray films? I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the software, but it seems that whatever it is that stores the region change counter is not removed after uninstalling PowerDVD. Nor will discs explicitly set for region B. ![]() Most of my Blu-ray discs are region free (they have the A+B+C logo on the box) - these discs will not play. However, if I try to apply the settings I get an error message saying that I have 0 region changes left (the only time I've changed the region was after first installing the software, where I selected Region B) and I get dumped back to the home screen. Fair enough the screen that appears has Region A selected (and greyed out) so I click the "Default Settings" button and it switches to Region B (I'm in the UK, Region B). When I go to play a Blu-ray disc in cinema mode I get a "This is your first time playing a BD-ROM title" prompt (which is not true) asking me to select a region. However, since using the trial I have lost the ability to play Blu-ray at all (I have also installed patches since purchasing Pro, so I'm not sure if it's a trial->Pro issue or a Pro patch issue, sorry). I recently purchased PowerDVD Pro 12 having used the trial version to see if it would play 3D Blu-ray well on my system (I had previously been happily using the version of PowerDVD 7.3 that was bundled with the drive).
