| Endorphin Luminary 1185 Posts 3/00 | I am assuming that this would be the best forum to ask. Today, I popped Flash (the porn) into my DVD player. I chose play movie and it froze. My DVD player wouldn't even repsond to open/close from my remote so I had to push the button on the player. I ejected the DVD and looked at it for possible problems and noticed some discoloration along the outer rim (it is nothing that can be cleaned off). I tried again, then tried just going to the first chapter. It started to play but glitched heavily. What happened to my DVD? It is about 5 years old and I keep it in a folder like you keep CDs in (if that helps. Thanks in advance for your help. [Link] |

| Endorphin Luminary 1185 Posts 3/00 | jrv, the best that I can describe it. There is a portion of the outer edge that is a not silver. At one point on the outer edge it is, I would say, a brownish red about a quarter inch thick with a slight mixture of silver. As it progresses along the edge the brownish red areas becomes thinnner and there is less silver mixed in. At the moment as I examine the disc I see some minor stratches an fingerprints. Nothing that has prevented play before. I use a Case Logic folder, much like I have used for CDs and DVDs in the past. I assume you are familiar with it. Do you think this is a DVD issue or a care issue? Thanks for your help. Molon Labe...Oh! And! FREE THE WEED!!! |
| jrv Senior Member 1266 Posts 2/03 | There is a description here http://www.hyperion-records.co.uk/bronzed.asp of one type of "bronzing". This has not been seen on any disc made in the last 15 years. If this is what you have then quite a few people will be very interested. There is another form of "bronzing" where the entire "bottom" polycarbonate turns a bronze color in a more uniform way. I've seen this in a CD and it is caused by acids leaching a paper insert in the box over time attacking the polycarbonate and darkening it. If you can find a way to take a pic maybe post to a specialist forum like cdrinfo or cdfreaks. |
