DVD Review HTF Review: Monty Python's The Meaning of Life SE + TRANSFER PROBLEM FEEDBACK (1 Viewer)

[PaulEB]

no mailer yet...its been about 2 weeks since I called. No big deal since the new discs won't be ready until November (we hope).

Just a heads-up to everyone. Universal and DreamWorks are now having the same problem with copies of Taken on DVD. Same interlacing problem. Deluxe did the authoring and is looking into it.

Did Deluxe do the authoring on Monty Python?

I've been holding off on purchasing this DVD. Can somebody post screenshots so I can see what the problem is?

I'm sorry, I looked through all the posts, and I didn't see the number to call to get the replacement. Could someone who called, post it?

Thanks!

Thank you for contacting Universal Studios. With the advent of cutting-edge
technology in the DVD format, a small number of DVD players do not have the
technical capability to take full advantage of the "Monty Python's The
Meaning of Life" disc format. Universal Studios Home Video has become aware
of a player specific issue which results in the appearance of jagged video
interlacing, on disc 1 only. Disc 2 is NOT affected. Consumers with an
incompatible player may mail back Disc 1 to Universal and receive a
replacement. To obtain a pre-paid USPS envelope in which to mail back the
original Disc 1, please call 1-800-433-4673. Replacement discs are currently
scheduled to be available mid-November 2003.

I need to call and get this mailer, My player doesn't have a problem, but if I upgrade down the road....:frowning:

I just called for the BTTF mailer, at first i thought it was a recording, then i realized someone was really speaking to me, and apparently English wasn't a first language.....

On a side note: I just picked up Jurassic Park and discovered that it had the faulty DTS track, did they do a mailer for this as well? and if so what's the number for that?

Thanks.

Oh Universal. When will you stop with your sub par DVD authoring?

Anyhoo, I called the Canadian Universal number today. Left a message, who knows if I'll ever see my mailer. However, they were quite good with the BTTF exchange, so I have high hopes.
