Simply log into an Ultraviolet connected app on any device, and you can either download or stream the movies you have registered. You have 24 months from when you purchase the physical disc to register the Ultraviolet code. We registered the code for the Blu-ray version of The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey at JB Now Video, and when we created a Flixter account and linked our Ultraviolet log-in, the file was already in our "owned movies" section. More services are expected to follow.īecause Ultraviolet is a repository for your digital licenses, you only need to register your Ultraviolet code once at any portal. Both of these have apps across Android and iOS, and Flixster is also available on Windows Phone and BlackBerry. In Australia, you can redeem the code via the newly launched JB Hi-Fi Now Video service from JB Hi-Fi, or you can use a service from the US called Flixster. Redeem the code online, and you'll have access to a digital version of the film that you can watch via one of the supporting services. In Australia, you'll slowly start seeing DVDs and Blu-ray movies hit the shelves marked with the Ultraviolet logo along the top, like in the examples below: Retail versions of The Hobbit showing the Ultraviolet logo. (One notably absent studio is Disney, which has its own version of the Ultraviolet system, and thus isn't a supporter).
It's been developed and supported by a group called the Digital Entertainment Content Ecosystem, which has members such as Sony Pictures, Warner Bros, Paramount and many more major film studios. To over simplify things, Ultraviolet is like a storage shelf for the digital rights of movies you've bought on DVD or Blu-ray. But what is Ultraviolet and how does it work? Ultraviolet has been operating overseas since late 2011, and it's now made it to Australian shores.
