Tonight, I successfully redeemed the codes to several Blu Ray movies that I purchased through Amazon and EBay. On my laptop, I went through them to check their streaming quality, and one of them, Shakespeare in Love, refuses to play.

This is a Miramax title. The movie plays in only SD.
I also redeemed The English Patient, Pulp Fiction and No Country For Old Men tonight. All are Miramax titles, as well, and all play with no issue. Note that both The English Patient and No Country For Old Men are similarly restricted to standard definition on the computer.
On my laptop, which, again, was playing all the other videos with no issue (ie it was not a technical issue on my end), I nonetheless did a clean uninstall of Flash from my computer, and reinstalled. I rebooted, and then attempted to watch Shakespeare again, same issue.
I tried watching it in both Chrome and Firefox, both up to date. Neither browser will play it. My laptop has Windows 7 64 bit, and is fully up to date with Windows. Then, I went to uvvu.com, logged in, and selected to play it from their website. So, it takes me back to the Vudu site, and won't play.
Just for giggles, I went to my desktop computer, a custom built system which is still running Vista 64 bit. Fully up to date on my Windows updates. All the other movies play here, too, with no issue. But I cannot play Shakespeare in Love.
Now, I tried using Internet Explorer 64 bit. It tells me I need to install Flash. So, I do. Flash installs successfully, yet the movie will not play here.
Two different fully up to date systems, running different operating systems. One streaming, one hard wired into the modem. Running Verizon FIOS, streaming at 58 + Mbps download speed.
This is not my issue.

And the movie plays fine on my Sony Bravia 1080P HDTV, which streams via a hard wired Roku 2 XS.
This issue is on your end. Fix it, please.
