I am an avid Blu-ray fan, very active in the Blu-ray.com forums.
However I have run into an issue that no one there seems to be familiar with.
I got The Dark Knight as a Christmas gift, which is awesome. However, once I started to watch it, I noticed that the sound went out about 9 or 10 times during the movie. I did indeed change it to TrueHD in the beginning of the movie, but for some reason, the sound just goes out during the film!
I have determined that the sound goes out at specific points during the movie. If I watch it many times, it always drops at the same points, if I stop, back up, and re-watch the scene, it drops at the same points! I found that if I pause it, and play it again, the sound is back, although I don't know if it will come back on its own or not.
Talk about embarrassing. Here I am bragging about how awesome BD is, and then my sound keeps going out on me while I have guests over to watch it!
I even went so far as to return the movie to Amazon and get a new copy, which ends up doing the exact same thing. I did not go through to see if it occurred in all the same placed, but it did in at least 2 scenes.
I even tried watching it in the default Dolby audio, and (assuming it was indeed on the default audio), it still seemed to drop the sound at the same point.
A summary of my system: PS3, HDMI cables, Yamaha HTR-6090, Sony Bravia, Polk Subwoofer (new), JBL speakers.
Is there a bad batch of these movies, or a problem with some systems reading the sound? I just don't know what to do now since I already exchanged the disc for a new one!
Anyone else have this happen to them?
Thanks for the help.
