590419 ....... enjoy lawlesskfd.............

oops guess not as you all already have this hack .......

LOL Lawless !!!!!

You don`t know me well enough !!!

ok clayts ,
i dont know you but i know bedlam and he knows you well
lol........

omigod !

It wasn`t me that found that hack incidentally, some very shy posting person who went very quiet when asked how he found it !!!

Top marks to him tho` so no-one else has to go through the kitten thing that I did using the flashback and fore method !!!

Website will be running by weekend - virtually all but done now !

Well who could that be?
Was it <REMOVED BY MODS> (According to dvdreviewer news page)
Was it Rosemary? (the telephone operator)

The hack: Came from.....well that would be telling :-)) But you may want to have a link to http://www.nerd-out.com/ and keep your eye on the sampo forum.
For not replying: My money would be on that the person got diverted with Xmas coming up and having a software release deadline in his real job :-) (Meaning he didn`t have time to post)

HEY!!! I`m <NAME REMOVED BY MODS> (that`s what I get for sending EMail from my work address. At least they didn`t post my phone numbers!). I was in the news and I missed it? Crap!!!

I informed them it was missing from the page and believe me, I sure wish I could take credit for it, but I sure as hell didn`t come up with it. I got it right here. I first saw it posted by Chris W. Thanks a ton Chris. Here`s the post:

People might want to try the following sequence instead of the usual 38883 when you`ve got the 3.3e firmware.....

This may get you to a more interesting loopholes menu :-)

[I don`t have one so cant test it but thought people might be interested in trying before it becomes a dvdtimes exclusive]

Yeah, Chris W, can`t thank you enough mate : it made writing the Encore website a darned sight easier than having to mention the old fashioned way of hacking Macrovision and possibly resulting in fried players (as Smiffy puts it so quaintly).

Once it emerged that this was happening (and mine NEARLY did - somehow got away with it) I did warn everyone NOT to do it.

And then Chris W came along with the most fantastic Christmas present of all - total hats off to you mate !
