Default Avatar on the tab....

So i thought I would try to watch Avatar that came with my vibrant so I plugged in the microsd in the tab tried to launch the movie but all I got was that the movie was locked it asked me if I wanted to unlock it I selected yes but nothing happened, I the tried to play the trailer and it worked. What I also noticed was the the movie didn't work on my vibrant either I guess cause I am running a froyo rom the tab is also running froyo. Has anyone tried to play the movie? Any luck or suggestions.

Get the blue ray or dvd and make a mobile copy for your device.

Lightbulb Register Divx

You probably have to register your "Divx device", it's mentioned in the quick start guide that came with tab! (one of the first pages about licenses)
It's in the online manual as well:

ABOUT DIVX VIDEO-ON-DEMAND
This DivX Certified® device must be registered in order to play purchased DivX Video-on-Demand (VOD) movies. To obtain your registration code, locate the DivX VOD section in your device setup menu. Go to vod.divx. com for more information on how to complete your registration.

Maybe this will solve your problem!

ok maybe this will explain better what i was trying to say on my original post.
On the Vibrant we have a copy of Avatar which is labeled as follows avatar.dcf. now when you launch the stock video player on the vibrant the movie plays no problem. When i insert the microsd card from the Vibrant into the tab and i use the same video player i am unable to play the movie, as stated on my original post it states the the movie is locked and asks me if i want to unlock it but when i select yes nothing happens. hope this clarifies what i want to do.

sounds like it has some kind of protection on it which prohibits it from being played/copied to other devices...
