I never understood this complaint with HD-DVD/DVD combos. The HD-DVD side (that goes down in the player) is very clearly a blue/purple color, while the standard DVD side is the same white/yellowish color that DVDs have always been. ALSO, the text around the inner ring is on the standard DVD...

Has anyone else experienced some weird shimmering in certain scenes? In Episode 9 on Disc 3, when the african american employee is telling Jerry that he might want to forget about his wife so the alzheimers doesn't claim both of them, the swatches on his blue sweater are flickering like crazy...

I just checked Moonraker, and I get the two pauses / stutters, one around 56:59 (which I guess it the layer change, according to what people have said here), and the second around 59:26. This is in my XBox 360. I just tried it on my PC with PowerDVD 6, and neither spot had any noticeable...

I ordered all 4 sets from Amazon when they had that $125 deal, and I'm liking them so far. The Goldeneye cropping is disappointing (Goldeneye is my favorite Bond film and I've seen it dozens and dozens of time, so I actually do notice that something looks off), but other than that I'm happy...

Man I'm so sick of cheap packaging. These slim DVD cases bend so easily, and have crappy disc-holders inside them. I just got Vol. 3, and 4 of the movies are fine (not pristine, but as decent as you can expect with these stupid slim cases), but one is really messed up. On Her Majesty's Secret...

Well I meant I don't know how such a thing could happen - the odds of one person getting multiple instances of what SHOULD be such a rare occurence should be extremely low. Yet they're obviously not. What are they doing in those factories?

There is definitely some problem - I've gotten 4 more HD-DVDs from Amazon, and 2 had definite marks/splotches. I returned those 2 and got replacements, and 1 of the replacements was the same. I no longer think it is the packaging however - I think it has something to do with how the discs...

Do HD-DVD discs have multiple layers of information like SD DVDs? I ask because I think I caught a layer transition pause in the Mission Impossible 3 HD-DVD. When Tom Cruise's SUV flips over and the camera pans over his face while he's upside down in it and the smoke is blowing past his face -...

OK - I guess I was just really unlucky, or maybe my local Target handles its discs very poorly. I have a few discs on order from Amazon so I'll see how they look.

Oh no, I understand that the screensaver is a feature. I meant the extra second of audio and video right before the screensaver switch is a bug - I somehow doubt that is intentional.

I'm afraid that HD-DVD packaging (and possibly Blu-Ray - it looks the same, although I haven't purchased any yet) is not helpful in keeping discs pristine while in shipping. I've opened 3 HD-DVD movies and all three have had damaged discs. King Kong - a few small light scratches, not a big...

MS has some kind of bug in the programming - a small one at least. When you pause an HD-DVD, it keeps the disc spinning for awhile for quick resume, but after a certain amount of time, it spins the disc down and goes to a screensaver (for King Kong, it's a slowly moving Universal logo). With the...

1) How long does it take to start a movie once you've closed the tray? I've seen that it takes about 10 seconds before it leaves the XBox Dashboard. That normal? 2) On King Kong, I'm experiencing some odd behavior - When you pause the movie for a long enough time, the drive eventually spins...

Is the 2-disc Fight Club sealed DVD the original style with the matte box, or the reprint with the glossy box? Thanks! edit: Oh my, I just realized this was a thread from 2004. Sorry for bringing up the past.

What site?

Has anyone gotten this yet? I just picked up a copy and not a single disc will play in my DVD player (Sanyo JVW-7000). Every single disc gets through the FBI warnings and other junk, but freezes before the menu. The discs play in my desktop PC fine, and all my other DVDs play in both the desktop...

Ok, the contrast and brightness issues seem to be fixed. I spent two hours trying to make the geometry work, man is it difficult. Going through the settings, I realized that bits to each side of my image, and on the top and bottom were getting cut off. No amount of messing with H-Size...

I have a Samsung TSL2793HF, a 4:3 ratio 27" CRT HDTV. I noticed that with widescreen movies, the black bars on top and bottom were not straight - they curved up at the sides of the screen along the top of the picture, and down along the bottom. I went into the service menu to try to make some...

I just got the slim re-release of Season 9 and noticed something odd - the theme song for 4-D is the normal one, not the unique one like the tv broadcast. I remember some random things were backwards, and the tagline was erehT tuO sI hturT ehT. Was this skipped over on the original Season 9...
