Thats what i hoped for. But a friend of mine, who still has the disc has told me its still a slow load on his Sony 360. Slower than most JAVA discs. I guess it keeps looking for an internet connection, even on players that are not hooked up, and have the internet turned off of the player.Originally Posted by Simon Howson
Surely this could be fixed with a firmware upgrade?
Starship Troopers, another disc that is a problem with Sony players, and a movie from Sony no less. But a memory stick in the back fixes that. To much JAVA, and to many BD live gizmos that slow down the act of watching the movie = no fun.
Once again, i am talking worst case discs. I can live with a 30 sec. or so load time, and thats all it takes for most discs to load. But all it takes is for a studio to do it a little different, and you got headaches on our end. Not to mention, firmware updates from the player manufactures.
My main interest is to watch a movie with the best picture and sound Blu-ray can offer. I dont need moving menus, that take forever to play out before you can select PLAY. I dont need JAVA, BD Live, or forced trailers and ads.
