Gimme A Break.... (1 Viewer)

I was just checking the Season 2 Canadian release of Gimme A Break and was a little disappointed. While it's great to see the show released, VEI dropped the ball in a few areas:

1. No episode synopsis (as they had on season 1)

2. No time display during episode playback

3. All 3 discs in the set are incorrectly labelled as "Disc 3" on the home menu

4. The "Play All" and "Episodes" prompts are incorrectly authored on Discs 1 & 2

5. No return to the main menu at the completion of each episode.

I saw that, too. I was one of the ones who got it in October, and it had those problems. Some of the episodes also have poor sound; from "Nell Goes Door to Door" onwards they sound like they've been overly noise-gated and sound muffled and unnatural. Do they sound like that to you?

 

[JeffWld]

Yes, the audio has been overly compressed on those episodes. Also: 3 consecutives episodes (starting with "Julie Smokes") have sound levels which are noticeably lower than the other episodes on the disc.

I was hoping that the delay had something to do with correcting the audio, but I guess not.
