I only started getting damaged Blu-ray's (Cracked/broken cases etc) when Amazon switched to sending me my orders using the yellow padded envelopes a few years back. The odds of me getting my order undamaged then became really low (I live in New Zealand). A few months back I decided to see what...

They are indeed, I've confirmed the contents. 100% certain of it. I also agree that I am probably sensitive to it now but all I'm looking for is smooth playback of the film I purchased. Surely that's not asking for too much. I have 160 Blu-rays that are smooth and suddenly whammo, some that...

For comparison sake, here's Back to the Future 3 on Blu-Ray. Spot the difference: 00010.mt2s 33,014,964kb 01:58:24

Here's a small sample of the amount of branching that is going on. This is from the very start of Prince of Persia. I've included the actual running time of the footage in these particular segments of the film and they are in sequence. Anyone else think this is nuts?: 00066.m2ts...

One other thing from my testing: - Toy Story 3 shows signs of the issue on the BDP-S350 but not on the BDP-S570 (Not that I've spotted and I have eagle eyes) - Prince of Persia shows it on both players but this may have something to do with the fact that it's split up into to way more...

This will be a little long so I apologise. I'll just reiterate some facts: I have two Blu-ray players. A bdp-s350 (latest firmware) - two years old. A bdp-s570 (latest firmware) - 1 week old. Recent release Blu-rays now have the main film split up into multiple files on the disk (potentially...

I guess another way to describe the issue I'm seeing is a momentary stutter in the playback but it can be very subtle (less than a second). Unfortunatly now that I'm aware of it I can't not see them. If you spot any motion in a scene that looked a little weird, rewind, replay and if it plays the...

Recently I experienced an issue with the playback of the Toy Story 3 blu-ray with my Sony BDP-S350 player (updated to the latest firmware) that left me a little puzzled. After having played a 150 odd blu-rays up to that point with no issues, I was suddenly faced with a movie presentation where...

I agree, my preference is for the theatrical version. The extended edition tarnished my enjoyment of the film so much that I was almost considering buying the original prince of thieves dvd that was a flipper with an even worse transfer. At least it was the theatrical version!!

This may seem really trivial to some people but I've noticed a strange consistency among a number of Blu-Ray titles in my collection. It really struck me the other day when I received my copy of Beowulf from Amazon. On removing the shrink-rap my first impression was 'darn it, another warped...
