Pushed a new update to the site! Hopefully this version is less annoying, (less ads) and easier to use than the last version.

The dataset used in this update should be virtually 100% accurate to what is actually available/redeemable, whereas the last dataset was pretty bad (sorry for that), so that's a big plus...

I'm still working on bringing around some of the old features like the leaderboard (don't worry, everything is still saved), etc...

I'd love to get some feedback, or suggestions on making the site even better!


Site Updates

Sept 7th, 2022

  1. Updated the search functionality. You can now search by "anything" which basically searches of the title, description as well as actors. Searching is also typo tolerant as well as "fuzzy", so searches like "ring king" should return "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King"

Sept 8th, 2022

  1. Seach is functioning again... oops

Sept 10th, 2022

  1. Added the Library

    • You can now add titles to your Library - previous users that had a library should see the stuff they added on the old site
  2. Added a Wishlist

    • You can now also add titles to your Wishlist, handy for those titles you haven't redeemed yet, but want to in the future.

You can find these under the new "My DVDUPC" link in the site navbar.

  1. General impovements were made to help speed things up (with more to come)

As always, looking for feedback, especially on the new Library / Wishlist

Nice redesign!

A bug: It looks like the Fox movies are back, but they are not compatible with Disc to Digital.

A request: It would be great to have filter for Movies Anywhere compatibility.

Thank you for this! The non-redeemables should be filtered out now, i didn't even catch that...

I'll see what I can do to filter on MA!

avatar

Great design. I am looking forward in review the infomration. Thanks.

avatar

So is the library function coming back?

I love the new look and enhanced functionality, excellent job! I noticed some new titles showing up as well, thank you so much! One thing I noticed is when I go to search and begin typing, my cursor is removed from the typing field once the search results beging populating. If it helps, I'm using the latest version of Firefox on Windows 11. I wouldn't mind also being able to press enter after typing a search query and having a page of the search results, but I don't want to seem nitpicky because I'm super grateful for this site.

Thank's for the feedback! I think this should be fixed! If not, lemme know (also try a hard reload on the browser).

I do have a goal of creating a settings page where users can enable/disable/configure different settings. Using your example, you'd be able to switch the way search works from it's current form of "search on typing" to "search on enter", so keep an eye out for that eventually.

Thanks again for the feedback!

That was super fast! It's fixed, thank you so much!

The codes are not working on vudu, I put the camera on the bar code and ut does nothing

avatar

did you click on the code you wanted first to open up the useable code

avatar

Is there any way to add a filter for whether the movie has a Blu Ray UPC added? I am not big paying $5 for old movie but 2$ is.
But i can never know which ones have a blu ray upc added. This feature would be awesome.

avatar

Will you be bringing back the library? Might I suggest making turning that into a wishlist. That way people can make a wishlist of titles they want to covert instead of what they have converted.

avatar

The library will totally be back and the wishlist is a great idea! Keep an eye out for it and thanks for the suggestion!

avatar

How do you view your "Wishlist"? I started flagging a bunch into my "Wishlist" but don't know how to display just those items. Only thing I can view is what is in "My Library".

avatar

Absolutely love the redesign!

Not sure how it is now because the wishlist isn't currently there...but previously I couldn't click on a movie in the wishlist to find the code to convert. I always had to have two windows side by side.

I've used this site to convert over 300+ movies the last few years. My library is now 650+! Thank you for your hard work and dedication!!

I love the new design on the site! I wish we could tether it to MA or Vudu to pull the info directly from our other accounts. Thanks for the awesome work!

avatar

Or possibly a way to import a list of titles to fill out My Library.

avatar

What happened to the my list? i hope its not gone forever, that took me a long time to make

avatar

Don't worry, it's not gone! I'm working on bringing it back as we speak... When finished, there will basically be "my list" as well as a "wish list"

avatar

oh thank goodness i thought mine was gone also.

avatar

Hi, where are the blu ray codes?

avatar

Hello Serpico007, I find that not all are available in Blu-ray. If they are SirDVD would have them listed. Sometimes there is a 'Show More' below the DVD UPCs as he lists as many as possible.

👍 1
avatar

@BlueRayMovies2 is correct, if there isn't a BluRay option, the title is most likely not available in that format (not everything is).

That said, if you see something that you know scans, but isn't on the site, let me know!

Thanks!

avatar

loving these updates, Thank you for everything you have and are doing to improve this site..

Amazing update! Was worried there for a second that the site was bought out as there was a huge Katy Perry video at the top. I thought it was an ad at first.

avatar

Great job on the redesign. The site looks amazing! Thanks for doing all this.

avatar

I appreciate the hard work you put into this website, its well done! My question is I have'nt been seeing any new movies being listed much anymore? I'm not sure if i'm just not navigating through the site correctly. Thank you Scott

avatar

I haven't seen anything new in a long time

avatar

Is there any chance of getting the trailers link back?

avatar

Give me a bit and I'll bring them back

avatar

How do I go about contributing a barcode?

avatar

Currently the list (i believe) should be 1:1 with vudu, but something could be gonig wrong somewhere. Is there a missing UPC or movie that you can share here with me so I can look into it?

avatar

have you stopped updating the latest movies that are available for the D2D?

avatar

I haven't stopped, I just don't know if vudu is adding new titles...

It seems like lately they have been removing more titles than adding, I'm guessing due to licensing with studios or something similar.

Is there anything that you notice that should be in the list that isn't? I can look into it if you notice something missing.

avatar

I like your site but almost unusable from an ipad. Heaven forbid from a phone.

is there a way to sort by studio? trying to build up sony rewards and looking for movies released by sony.

avatar

Every movie or tv show I click on show only DVD UPS. Where are the Blu-ray UPCs? Please help. Thank you.

avatar

Sorry, I just realized not all are offered in Blu-ray . . .

avatar

Hello, I am a recent user here and I am curious as to how often or when does this site gets updated? I have been checking in but there seems to have been no updates since I joined. Is there a when I can find out when it is update? Thank You.

avatar

Hey BRM. I have a link from one of the Reddit forums I belong, and even the newest one on the list is here at DVDUPC. Reddit group: https://www.reddit.com/r/vudu/ D2D list: https://lookerstudio.google.com/reporting/d4bd9305-6ffb-4bd3-bdaf-ee798a457e6a/page/0ngiC

Hope that helps.

avatar

Many Thank jb99. The first like come up 'something went wrong' the second one worked. I will check on both this and your reddit site. :]

avatar

I used to check Michael's UPC MASTER LIST before he passed (RIP) I remember he posted movies/TV/Bundles almost weekly and let us know which were removed. I asked how to do so and continue his list, but no one replyed on how he got the information. The last time list was updated was February 2022. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1IgK7tIEKngP59PUOs_lsF4P1hbSRIG71tgxncpu1Mws/edit#gid=402351217 I had hoped someone would take over it and help us out.

avatar

The site should be to the tee 1:1 what is available. Let me know if you see something that might be out of sync so I can look into what might be wrong.

Thanks!

avatar

The Blob (1958) Bluray is not the 1958 version it is a 1988 remake version. Totally sucks. LOL I see you updated this list in September 2022. How often does Vudu update their Disc to Digital Movies? How can I access them from Vudu? Thanks.

avatar

The site is currently completely unusable on iPhone. I can send a video demonstrating the issue if you tell me where to send it.

avatar

Yep, I sent a note a few months ago but no reply. Figure webmaster is doing as a public service so we will just have to put up with.

avatar

I haven't read any recent replies from him. Hope you are alright SirDVD!!!

avatar

How do we upload?

avatar

The old site allowed uploading because it was manually curated, but the current site should be an exact match of what is available for redemption. Let me know if you see something that is missing from the site so I can check into it.

Thank you!

avatar

In the comment section of the title The Garden I added a link to the barcode. I've tested the barcode myself and it does work. Can you see about adding it?

avatar

As of 3/4/23, the site is almost unusable on mobile devices - ads cover over 2/3 of my screen (iPhone/Safari)

avatar

Give it a shot again and let me know how the experience on mobile is now. I've disabled all of the annoying trash ads that covers the screen, they weren't suppose to be there. If they are still there, give it a minute they should be gone very soon.

avatar

I contacted VUDU on movie 'The Blob' and they changed it to the 1958 version. This was the only monster movie that scared me when I was a kid because I could not hear it coming and it could sneak up on me. I was on the sofa watching with my legs on sofa so it wouldn't get me!!!! Steve McQueen did a good job. I can't help but wonder if he realized he was the only person that actually 'acted' in the movie. The other performers were just awful!!! LOL

I'm curious, do you have any sort of an API to lookup a movie by it's UPC code?

With such a lovely dataset of movie's, that'd be an amazing feature. I'm pretty sure you're using Laravel Jetstream, and API authentication is baked in out of the box, so that'd be super easy to build.

I'd love to help out if that's something you're interested in building!

avatar

I haven't seen any updates here in months. Any chance you'll be updating soon? Vudu updates their list often, but I don't see them here. How about giving us the information of pulling the newly added Disc to Digital movies on our own?

avatar

It seems someone has taken over Michael's google spreadsheet (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/u/0/d/1RSjytgDMHy3ZvOBotkKFY8g-WBYwRQ9jGI9uM-xY1Go/pub?single=true&gid=9&output=html) Unfortunatelly, it does not include bundles, removed movies nor the updated dates. But it is worth a look at. Just an FYI

avatar

It is also not as nice or detailed as seen on this site.

avatar

AND . . . it is a direct to digital???? I clicked on Fantastic Voyage, I've been hoping it came to D2D but what it did was take me to Vudu to puchase it at regular price. Bummer. You can't even communicate with the editor as before. I will stick to this site. :]
