I've done a search on this on a few different forums, google, etc. and come up blank so far.
Is there a software player out there that will disregard PUOs, or is that something which simply isn't possible to do? The more DVDs I watch, the less tolerance I have for companies that insist on putting things on those DVDs which I am *forced* to watch every time I put the thing in my player. I've tried MPC, WinDVD, PowerDVD, VLC, WMP, BSPlayer, etc. without any luck. VLC sort of does what I want, but it has an issue of its own in that when I tell it to use SPDIF the sound just echoes.
It's easy enough to remove all that garbage when I backup my own DVDs (although who knows how long that will last now that DVD Decrypter is dead), but I'd love to see a player that can skip directly to a menu or specific title when I'm playing a disc from Netflix.
