New disc, looks pristine, won't play past 1:09:50 (approx.), the beginning of chapter 17. Freezes, then pixilates, distorts, stalls, etc. Also can't skip or FF past this point. I am sure I read about problems with some copies of this disc before I ordered it, so it wasn't a *total* surprise, but I can't find the info now. Anyone recall this? If so, what was the remedy? Thanks.
This isn't posted as a known problem on Criterion's site, but I believe it *is* a known problem...at least to me and some others. I can't return it to the dealer as I bought this a few months ago I think (but just opened it tonight), and somehow it got *way* down the pile...a shame, as I really liked what I saw and its quitting was really disappointing. The player is a Panny RP82, other discs play fine, so IMO it's the disc.
