    After image (?) issue with Samsung qled

    I've had an issue with my Samsung QLED (QN82Q6FNAF) that I haven't been able to figure out. I have noticed that when some dark objects are presented against a light background, the display takes a moment or two for the image to disappear. I've included a picture I took while the disc was playing...

    Watching computer files on TV?

    FS: Criterions, Box Sets, Non-R1, more

    Good news re: Kagemusha release?

    If you check out the list of films being screened at this year's Cannes festival, a portion of the films are restored prints (including the first of the long-promised Shaw Bros titles!). Among the restorations is Kagemusha, listed as the director's cut, from the original negative. Maybe this...

    Hollywood Plus problem

    I recently installed a Hollywood Plus card in my computer, and while NTSC DVDs play back fine, PAL discs will not. All I get with those discs is a green screen and no sound; menus load up fine, but that's it. Usually, they make the program crash completely. The FAQs I've seen on the web are...

    the new Young Girls of Rochefort disc?

    Anyone have this yet, who can comment on the video quality? The French disc has a lot of shimmering on my Malata, and I'll gladly get this version if it looks better. Too bad Miramax wouldn't spring for the documentary on the French disc, though...
