    How over the speed limit would you have to be to not qualify for traffic school?

    I believe in California if you are more than 20 miles per hour over the speed limit you cannot qualify for traffic school. If you contact the court house, they can let you know what the options are.

    Try Zabasearch, they don't have email addresses, but you might get a phone number and a street address. Good Luck, Chauncey

    Criterion Solaris vs. RusCiCo (with screen captures)

    I might add that Ruscico produces a PAL version as well. I believe that the transfer on Artificial Eye DVD is exactly the same as the PAL Ruscico. The Ruscico NTSC DVD loses a bit of quality when they do the PAL to NTSC conversion.

    Digital Net Shop - Requesting Feedback

    I was thinking of purchasing an item from the Digital Net Shop. Has anyone here shopped there? If yes, could you relay your experiences? I search the forums, and the net, but was unable to find any sites that had feedback for this store. Thanks,

    Help! PAL DVD encoding/reproduction Q/A

    I agree with Simon. PAL DVDs are encoded at 25 fps. When you demux the video from a PAL DVD you get a MPEG2 file that is 25 fps. I have tested this, and the video files are 25 fps. Good Luck,

    R2: Monstes Inc & A Bugs Life in dts

    Do these digitally made movies suffer from the PAL speedup other films do? If they do, is the DTS track pitch corrected? Thanks in advance for any information. Thanks,

    I'm getting Spirited Away with the LE Ghibli DVD Player!

    I have the Japanese DVD, and the red push didn't bother me at all. IMO, I thought the movie was incredible, and the picture and sound were stunning. Most TVs sold in America have the color decoder set to output way too much red. My Mitsubishi's red push was +25% out of the box. I had to hack...

    Can PAL encoded DVD's play on a computer?

    My PAL DVDs play on my computer. So yours should play as well. Also if you want a region free player that does PAL to NTSC conversion go with the Malata. I've seen it and it does damn good conversion. Good Luck,

    Why isn't "Once Were Warriors" on DVD

    I don't know why it is not available in the US. But it is available in Australia. The DVD is PAL and region 4. I don't own it so I cannot offer up a review. Good Luck,

    Import dvds in dts on ebay?

    In general, if you know where to look, you can save money by buying directly from where the Ebay people are getting their DVDs. I believe most of the DTS releases come from Hong Kong or Korea (someone correct me if I am wrong). You can try DDDHouse and Hivizone and see if they carry the DTS...

    RUSCICO DVD Format Question

    On the RUSCICO website, they indicate that their DVDs are both available in PAL or NTSC formats. What was the original transfer format? Was it PAL or NTSC, or did they do a transfer for each format? I want to pick up Solaris, and would like to get it in the originally transferred format. Any...

    BULLY - Anyone know if it's anamorphic?

    The transfer is anamorphic. The transfer is quite good. I saw no edge enhancement. The movie is very good, and very disturbing, IMHO. Good Luck,

    Brother - Region 3 NTSC

    Roger & Mark, Thanks for the input. I do have the Japanese region 2 version as well. And you are right, the transfer is awesome, and it is much better than the region 3 release. I do have some other non-anamorphic titles I wish I could zoom in on and still see the subtitles. A couple that...

    Brother - Region 3 NTSC

    Mike, Have you tested the subtitle issue any more with the Malata. Do the subtitles move and partially cover the picture? I have recommended to TAW, at the TAW Forum, that a nice new feature for the Rock+ would be moving the subtitles up when zooming in on a non-anamorphic DVD. I figured that...

    Brother - Region 1

    Mikko, The Japanese DVD is 114 minutes. The typo is on the DVD case. It indicates the movie is 144 minutes long, when it is actually 114 minutes long.

    I thought the movie was excellent. It is very disturbing. Best to have a "pick me up" comedy for after.:)

    Any early reviews of Tombstone Vista Series DVD??

    On my setup I have the various sharpness, SVM, edge enhancement settings, etc. set so that there is absolutely no edge enhancement on the AVIA test disc pattern. Tombstone is one of the few DVDs I can still see edge enhancement on.
