Glad you got yours FG! Me too, I'm used to this type of disk holder.

Trevor, I just had problems with disk 4 too, in Man with Nine Lives, chapter 2 time 15:00. I checked the disk and saw no marks, but cleaned it anyway. Guess what? Works fine now! Tried it several times and it's perfect. Maybe the disks just have to be squeaky clean to work?

I watched Saga of a Star World today with the commentary. I don't think I've ever done that before. It was a little odd, like having rude guests talking all through it, but it was interesting to hear some of their thoughts on making it. And Dirk's thoughts on his hair colour.

I agree dec5! She was a beautiful woman and had a presence. Its a shame to hear on the commentary about what had happened. I thought she was VERY good. Maybe the way she was treated is the reason she remains hidden?

I would like to finally declare..... I've got mine!!! (well, yesterday - and only a day after I got my copy of 'Paradis' and the 25th anniversary CD!)

With the Region 2 DVD standard and Cylon set releases on January 12 confirming my suspicions about the layout of the UK version, (7 discs - 6 for the episodes, 1 for the extras - the same as Australia - Region 4) I decided to go for the US set - It's got it all!

It took just under a week to reach me after my order, and lordy, it's big!

I'm impressed by the quality of the packaging, although the sticker on the back of the box can easily pick up fingerprints. As for the discs themselves, they appear to be in good order (I've only handled disc 1). The booklet is really great too, with a nice layout.

I've only scratched the surface of the set so far - I've watched the Glen A. Larson & Stu Phillips featurettes, and some of the deleted scenes from Saga of a Star World (some interesting points to make about those!), but I hope to watch some more of it this weekend.

In all, a great set.... but why did I have to buy Region 1 (US) in the first place? Why couldn't Universal release the same material in each territory for everyone to enjoy? A puzzling question indeed.....

By your command,
Ian W359

Default Now watching...

Okay, home sick (head cold) so going through the recently arrived set. Disk 1 and 2 are viewed.

Anyone else have any trouble with the commentary? I have NO problem with the movie, or the deleted scenes, but I can't get the commentary to play.

Hi Imagination,

Several people have had problems playing various parts of certain disks, and it seems to be rather random, not just one certain disk or feature.

First you should try carefully cleaning the disk, even if it seems clean. All my errors went away when I did this, even though they looked clean and I had been very careful. I guess these disks are especially apt to encounter problems, more than likely due to heavy compression or similar.

If you are still unable to get a feature to play, the best thing to do is exchange it. Several people have done so and that seems to have fixed the problem.

Hope this helps,
Muffit

I've played 'em all on Xbox and the only problems I've noticed is a bit of stuttering during some the features deep on the disc, this is something I blame on the Xbox as it never happens in the same place twice.

I was actually suprised they weren't other issues for me.
