    BATTLESTAR GALACTICA: The Complete Epic Series

    Having recently managed to but this set and have it arrive today, must say I'm slightly annoyed that, despite careful sanding of the hub catches, disc 6 still cracked upon removal. Now as I'm in the UK, and it was bought from Amazon marketplace, to be honest, the cost and hassle of returning...

    Stargate SG-1 Season 4 disc problem...

    That's probably going to be my next port of call. Though, to be honest, being in the UK I can imagine they might not be too fussed about helping. Still, it's worth a try. Sorry to hear your season 5 got the problem, RogerH, as I seemed to be okay with that one. Don't know about anyone...

    Stargate SG-1 Season 4 disc problem...

    Currently working my way through the entire region 1 season sets but have come across a problem on Disc 5 of season 4 and was wondering if anyone else has encountered it. During the final episode, as exactly 27mins 01 secs my player (a pioneer DV-414), the picture freezes but the time code...

    Dead DVD Titles!

    Have been considering picking up Daylight but wondered if anyone can tell me if it's one of the Universal discs that was and/or is prone to no longer playing? Thought I'd ask as I checked my Apollo 13 today and it no longer wants to play on my Pioneer (but it will still play on my PC!!)...

    Batman Begins Deluxe edition problematic

    Hi. Just thought I'd add that I'm having problems with the 2-disc Region 3 Batman Begins. Playing it on my Pioneer 414 it gets to approx 76mins then breaks up for about minute/minute and half. Bit annoying as the disc itself is spotless, and I've had five region 3 discs in the past that...

    *** Official STAR WARS DVD Glitch Thread

    Greg-t, Yep, checked all three on 2 other UK players (one was a real cheap player too) and they all played ok. But on my US model Pioneer that ain't so. Which is annoying as it's the only disc I've ever had a problem with (figures it's Star Wars, but hey, c'est la vie). Course, it...

    *** Official STAR WARS DVD Glitch Thread

    Well, bad news, folks. For me, at least. Tried my replacement copy of New Hope last night - it still has the same picture stutter as my previous two copies from the retailer, and in exactly the same place. Checked the disc and there seems to be nothing that indicates this is a Version...

    *** Official STAR WARS DVD Glitch Thread

    Don't suppose anyone knows of an e-mail address for FOX so that I can check if my replacement has been issued? As I'm in England I don't fancy the prospect of having to keep phoning to find out. Thanks. *** wahoo! replacement arrived this lunch. Fingers crossed it works... ***

    After exchanging my Episode 4 disc, and still having the exact same problem in the exact same place, does anyone know if Fox have started shipping the replacement New Hopes yet?

    *** Official STAR WARS DVD Glitch Thread

    For others like myself here in England, thought I'd let you know that I rang FOX last night on the number provided earlier in this thread. Other than being put on hold (and mentally totting up my phone bill!), it was pretty straightforward. Well, almost. When I explained where I...

    *** Official STAR WARS DVD Glitch Thread

    Hi. Would like to contact Fox with regards a replacement New Hope as mine too has problems. However, being in England, can anyone tell me if there is a contact e-mail (or standard) address to write to, or even a phone number I can call from here? All help appreciated. Thanks.

    Hm, I find it strange that Lucasfilm assure Bill there are NO technical glitches on New Hope. Wonder how they'd explain away Han's head glitch? Maybe he's now supposed to be doing a double-take, perhaps?! Or maybe they'll say it only occurs on mine and Neil's copy?

    *** Official STAR WARS DVD Glitch Thread

    As a newcomer can I just say Hi to everyone. I've now finished watching the region 1 New Hope and I think I've found a genuine glitch on the disc. It occurs right at the end of chapter 40, as a smiling Han turns away from Luke. Just as the chapter is about to change Han's head seems to...
