Same problems as with John Carter 3D -- which have been known for three months. This is getting pathetic -- not like you'd expect the Avengers 3D disc to be very popular...

Busted in Germany, too... See also:

yes it is same like John Carter. I had to start Avengers 3D BD at 2D mode and then after menu comes I can change it to 3D. Dont know why cyberlink did not fix this issue for John Carter so they likely would not fix it for Avengers too.

I wish that trick worked for me. Even in 2-D mode, once I choose 'English', I see the Paramount logo, then all I get is a few seconds of sound, and a black screen.

Too bad the EULA probably makes it impossible to get a refund (i.e. "if it's busted, too bad" language). The longer I've had this product, the less pleased I am. Since I'm pretty cheap, buying TMT is a tough pill to swallow, but sure seems to be the only "legal" answer. It seems to have better Windows Media Center integration and remote support, too. Curse me for using the software bundled w/ my drive!

This really interests me. If you search online for this issue, you can see posts everywhere.

Im starting to think that this is a disk issue.

Doubt that it's the disc in my case. Seems to be playing just fine in ArcSoft TotalMedia Theatre 5.0 so far.

I.e. *Exactly* the same problems as w/ John Carter ... which may be fixed in the next patch. Though what's the deal w/ 3-4 months between pushing patches? WAY too long when hardware boxes get firmware upates usually less than a week if some new disc causes trouble. intvsteve

Thanks for this! I have PowerDVD 10 so these actions by itself did not work. However, taking the same actions with AnyDVD HD enabled with most blu-ray options checked off, it finally worked! Looks awesome!!!

Did you guys look at the pinned post above these discussions? I can't tell if you did.

It is here and is just a different procedure for playing the DVD.
