From the Bits: "Buena Vista has also set a Pirates of the Caribbean Trilogy Blu-ray Disc box set for release on 9/16, containing all three films in a single package (SRP $82.99)." Do you guys think it will contain the Black Pearl with corrected framing?

Thanks for the replies. I exchanged my unit and the new one works perfectly. Maybe the SACD chip in the other one I had was bad or had some microscopic abnormality. The sound on this unit is fantastic. Even regular CD's sound better. Kind of fun going through my collection and listening to old...

Can anyone suggest a few links to good websites with information and news for SACD and DVDA? News like upcoming releases and titles in production, stuff like that. Thanks -Jim

Yes my new unit that I got yesterday is working fine. The only popping/ticks I hear now are the edits and stuff not created by the player, but are part of the recordings. I did also visit the AVS Forum and found a few people with similar problems but they seemed to have it even worse than me...

102 views and no replies? Guess I was he only one. I exchanged my unit and so far so good.

I bought a slew of SACD titles for my new player and was listening happily when I started noticing popping/clicking. I tried different titles with the same results. I was even thinking that maybe it was part of the recording, but when I rewind and listen to the same spot the popping/clicking...

MacGyver could. Hahah LOL . Good one Scott...

The redbook and all the audio options on the 2900 sound fantastic. You should check one out, you won't be disapointed with the audio capabilities on this machine.

LanceJ I have to disagree with you and CurtisC. If this player didn't have the 3-2alt. bug I think it would be one of the top contenders on the market or THE TOP contender for video quality. Other than the picture being a little soft, which in my opinion is a matter of preference, this player...

From what I've heard from DenonJeff over at the avsforum he doesn't think a firmware update could fix this problem. But you never know some engineers are pretty clever and could find a way to do it, but don't count on it. The real question comes down to wether it's viable for them to do so. On...

What I'm curious about now is how many titles actually have the 3-2 alt. encding. Maybe we should start a thread and find out. Does 1 in 5 have it? 1 in 10? 1 in 20? Are ALL the latest Disney titles like this?

rodon, i am pleased te hear that you are loving your new dvd-2900. It is a great machine. I have decided to keep the machine and overlook the small imperfections on some DVD's. Perhaps when hd-dvd players come out all these small kinks will be worked out. Of course companies like Disney will...

I would like to say that overall this is a fantastic player and I want to make sure that nobody thinks that I am bashing it. It is definitly the best universal player available. The bug issue IS minor and to most people it wouldn't make it a deal breaker. It's just that for a around a $1000 I...

Lee - I was extremely impressed by the DVD-A and the SACD performance of this player. Even with regular CD's it sounded fantastic. Top notch all the way IMHO. Brian - I have been waiting for a universal player w good bass management and chroma free for a year and a half. I thought this was...

I bought this player last week excited that there is finally an excellent quality player that has both DVD-A and SACD in one unit. From what I HAD read it was to be CUE free(chroma bug) and was going to be a fantastic player. Come to find out it is only partially CUE free and to say the least...

It can't be a layer change because if you can switch it to dolby digital it doesn't dropout. Let's not blow this out of proportion. I don't think this tiny(only a fraction of a second of dropout) problem sould prevent anyone from enjoying the movie or from buying it?

I do remember checking the theatrical cut and there is no dropout on the DTS that I could detect. The dolby tracks seem to be alright on on both discs. I don't think that it is a problem with your player, but I could be wrong. I think it is just a glitch that fell through the cracks. I have a...

I remember when I first got the disc that there is one spot that I did notice a dropout on the DTS track. I don't recall the exact time that it happened, but your time seems about right. The scene where I remeber the dropout is when they are captured and being escourted up the pyramid walkway...

I just looked for you and my Toshiba SD-2109 is running version ROM 1.5.

Worked fine when I watched it. I have a Toshiba SD-2109.

Hey, what's up fellas. Many, many XBOX games are DD4.1 and are designed without the center channel in mind. Remember DD is capable of doing 1 to as many as 6 channels of audio(inc. subwoofer .1). Unfortunatly I think some developers are lazy or run out of time or are doing ports of games...

I've seen dark crystal superbit at best buy...they are full of it. I hate it when people at stores don't know the answer to someething and they just make up some bull. I would rather them just say they don't know and try their best to find the right answer and if they can't find out I would be...

I forgot to mention that I went to borders as well. I had a bad feeling when I didn't see it advertised anywhere in the weekend newspaper. When I was at Best Buy I got one of the workers to look it up at a computer console and he said they only had two on order from the warehouse and should be...

Anybody else have trouble finding this title yesterday? I went all over town and out of town and had no luck finding it. I went Best Buy, Circuit City, Sam Goody, Suncoast, Fry's, and even Barnes and Noble. I don't think any of the stores even had any delivered to sell. I gave up and ordered off...
