Total Media Theater v6 released

Aside from a Metro interface for Win8 users, doesn't seem different from TMT5. Also, Cinavia was enabled in build 5.3.1.172 pf TMT5; so Cinavia will be in all builds of TMT6 and onward. Just figured I'd post this for those who want the latest :)

I actually use TMT3 for movie library/folder rip playback (more stable/reliable) and use TMT5 for physical disc playback (for Redbox/Netflix rentals) all from within Media Center. I'll be upgrading to 6 for the latter usage scenario to avoid any DRM conflicts on newer discs that might pop up.

Wow, it is 9.99 right now for owners of TMT5!!! Sweet! I'm pretty happy with Arcsoft on their upgrade policies. "The other vendor" would always rape me anytime they came out with a new release, which seemed like every few months.

Has anyone installed v6.0? Someone on AVS reported that installing v6 increased his boot time significantly on three systems. I installed it on my test system running Windows 7 without any issues.

I haven't yet. I heard it was only Win 8 that was being affected only by this bug.

Yeah, there is a thread in the Arcsoft forums about the slow boot issue. It's a problem for me right now. It mostly affects those of us with an SSD. Fortunately it's not a problem for me, as I boot my machine and leave it booted. It doesn't effect standby/resume.

Win 7 too. I have the issue. You need to have an SSD to have the prob.

Ah, I heard about people disabling fastboot to no avail; so I assumed it was only 8.
