Bugatti Fan Posted September 18, 2021 Share Posted September 18, 2021 (edited) Oh well! It's gone! Look out for second hand copies (and maybe rip offs) appearing on ebay some time in the future. I hope that the Model Car Museum in Sandy, Utah obtained a copy for archive purposes as Scale Auto was closing. Perhaps a generous benefactor donated one to them maybe.

I’ve had one for 3 years that I can’t look at because my MacBook Pro is too advanced for the dvd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I am aware Peter, any issues when reading DVD's is more to do with the DVD software than the 32 bit / 64 bit computer. I wanted to play a Genesis concert tour DVD recently with my Windows 10 desktop computer, and it wasn't possible until I eventually found some software that would read the DVD disk. My version of Microsoft Windows 10 Pro is a 64 bit operating system. David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stitchdup Posted January 11, 2023 Share Posted January 11, 2023 If you can get a version of vlc media player it plays most formats, and there are patches to add other less common formats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustang fan Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 I bought the DVD years ago, and I soon converted all the issues it contains into PDF files, guessing the software required to access them from the dvd would eventually become unusable (for info, I use Windows 10, and it still works on the current up-to-date version). It is very easy to do this conversion, since the reading software allows printing of any pages, even an entire issue at once. Just use a free pdf printer like "PDF creator", and voila! (adjust the paper size in the printer driver, so that you do not see ugly white margins around the pages). Now, Kalmbach could also provide the password use to allow access to the pdf files on the DVD... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're using W10 or W11 you can convert them to PDF by choosing "Microsoft Print to PDF" instead of your printer . Yes it works , I've done it . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiml0001 Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 On the first dvd every issue is already in its own separate pdf file. You don’t have to do anything to it. The problem comes when you try to open one of the pdf files. They are all password protected and I haven’t found any way to bypass that password the second dvd that has the issues through 2019 also has every Issue in a separate pdf file. These files are not password protected. You can copy them anywhere and open them with any app. I copied them from my pc to an iCloud Drive. Now I can use my iPad to look at them anywhere.
