Hey, Marco, I know it's been 3 years, but a friend is now trying to buy the Jamo D6 for his room measuring 3.8m x 4.6m. Since you had the D6 system running in a smaller room than that, I was wondering how it sounded. Do you still have the system? Appreciate any feedback. Thank you.

Folks, I just received Smallville Season 5, region 2, from Amazon.co.uk and wanted to confirm the fact that it DOES have English subtitles unlike its region 1 counterpart. I simply cannot understand Warner's logic... :confused:

That makes two of us! :)

Meaningless decisions these executives take... :angry:

Thanks a lot, Gord. Guess I'll go ahead and order the set from Amazon UK.

Precisely my point, Gord. Is there any way we can confirm English ST in region 2? Here's where I saw it mentioned: http://www.thehut.com/hut/8545432.product

And, I read some place that R2 has them. So, isn't Warner cutting costs on those? But I don't have confirmation on the R2 ST. Anybody?

Just realized that Smallville season 5 has no English subtitles!! I don't understand why this is since seasons 1-4 had them. Any ideas? Also, does anyone know for sure whether the UK version of season 5 has English subtitles? Thanks in advance!

Paul, Could you please check and let me know whether or not World at War has English subtitles? I have the BBC History of WWII box set and that has. Thanks a lot.

Why did Besson edit fight scenes? What purpose was he trying to achieve?

DaViD, A little OT, but since you mentioned the OPPO, I'd to know whether it's HDCP-compliant. My Sanyo PLV-70 is NOT HDCP and therefore, I won't be able to use the Oppo if it is compliant. Please clarify. Thanks

That's EXCELLENT news! I only hope this day will come soon!!

The R1 DVD comes in 2 flavors: U.S. and Canadian. The U.S. version has player-generated subtitles in the picture area (above black bar). The Canadian version has the subtitles appearing on the bottom black bar. Also, the U.S. subtitles are white and small whereas the Canadian ones are yellow and...

Most Andrew Blake features are Anamorphic WS with DD 5.1 surround. Don't think they have DTS, though.
