Yes, I suspect that's probably the case (and mentioned that earlier in the thread IIRC)... though this particular instance w/ Poltergeist does seem more wide-spread than other instances w/ other releases, especially considering we're now several years into the format (and everyone's aware of that sort of potential playback issue and how to deal w/ it)...
Given we're getting so close to BF month now (probably not BF week anymore) on top of potential Halloween sales, I'll probably just give this issue a bit more time to play itself out before diving in for the upgrade (and probably get it from the 1st upcoming, substantial sale or something)...
I have waaay too much disc backlog (plus so much to watch via streaming to boot) anyway -- I mean... I just placed a 41-title(!) order from the current Kino sale to add to that backlog, LOL...
