WinDVD 11 Pro Service Pack 2
Notes:

An important update is available for WinDVD 11 Pro which improves title compatibility and Microsoft Windows 8 support.

It is highly recommended that you download this update immediately. You must exit out of the application before you start the installation of the update so that it can successfully complete.

Upon completion the application language will become English, please be aware of this before you apply this patch. If you have already installed Service Pack 2, you don't need to download it again.

I would not recommend downloading this patch. I received "update now" notice for WinDVD 11 Pro. Reluctantly, I complied because Corel gets in your face with its update notice. It no longer plays Blu-ray disks. It will pick up things stored on the hard drive, but not disks. A disk will open the Corel Window, but just sits there unresponsive to the play icon. I uninstalled WinDVD. Then I had nothing. So I downloaded the free trial of WindDVDPro and it works, but what happens after 30 days? Do I have to buy the thing again? This is very frustrating. I spent way too much time trying to resolve this problem. I was very happy with the original purchase. It worked well for the better part of a year until this patch came along. :cry:
