I just saw the latest "Straight to the A" and besides the fact that the vid is another RLD winner, I just wanted to let Dion and everyone at RLD know that I like the menu's. I know there have been some comment about them on the forum, but they work just fine on my Sony DVD player. Something like this was what seperated Evil Angel from the rest of the pack.

I can't tell home much I love it when companies take the time to do things properly. Things like this are what endear fans to particular companies.

I would recommend replacing the words with the letters O, A, and C (Oral, Anal, Cumshot) to further minimize on screen distractions. Actually, as long as you have the scenes properly disected, you don't need the menu. After a while, folks will come to know how you seperate the scenes and react accordingly.

Good luck, keep up the good work.

I don't know about other players, but the FF scan & Rev scan buttons on my remote were disabled on this DVD because of this feature. To me that is unacceptable.

Only DVDs I have disabling the ff/rew function are virtual sex DVDs.

I'm guessing that Swallow My Pride #2 also has this crappy on screen menu. I asked Dion about this in another thread and my question was ignored (he answered someone else's question in the same thread so I'm assuming he doesn't want to say that it does indeed exist on the upcoming SMP #2 disc).
Too bad, I was looking forward to it too.

Dion,
If possible, could you find out all of the titles that will have this menu? As much as I like your stuff, I really don't want to buy any of the discs that have the menu.

I typically buy your titles on the day that they are released (at a Brick & Morter store). I'd rather not have to spend money on a rental, or have to wait for a review prior to buying future discs to endure that the menu is not present.

Thanks

I believe that only Hardcore Training and Straight to the A #3 have this function on the disc, I can promise you that you won't see this ever again on one of my title's.

Thanks Dion. When I saw how soon "110% Natural #4" is to be released, I was afraid that this one would have already been too far into the manufacturing pipeline.

As much as I would have resisted, I think that I would have had to buy this one anyway. Thankfully, I won't have this dilemna.

For better of worse, the special feature is on SWALLOW MY PRIDE #2 DVD. Personally, I do not find it that distracting. I like the convenience of going straight to the pops. Unfortunately, SMP#2 has 48 cumshots....it drained 2 sets of batteries on my remote just viewing them all.

P.S. Seriously....if you get 48 loads swallowed by super-whores like Jasmine Lynn, Angel Long, Gala Cruz, Jamie Woods, Ashly More, and Renee Pornero, are you going to not buy this title solely because of that feature?

Then put a chapter stop right before the pop. That way, by hitting the chapter skip button you get the same thing.

I can't imagine watching porn without a fast forward button, which is what that "special feature" caused.

I have the answer to all this.....EVERYONE THROUGH OUT THE CRAPPY DVD PLAYERS AND GET A FREAKING SONY.

On my player the FF/Rev buttons eliminate the menu. If the menu were to disappear after a minute at the beginning of each chapter, I'd be ok with that. But if the menu goes...life will go on.....just please please please keep the chapter breaks.

I think RLD should recall these titles (Straight To The A #3, Hardcore Training, Swallow My Pride #2) and redo them like they did with the Straight To The A #1 disc (recalled it and re-released on new discs because most people could not view the last chapter/scene on their players, except for Sony users).

I really like this new feature. It is not
distracting on my DVD players and it allows
you to go immediately to the type of sex action
you are in the mood for.

I think it is a plus!

I think the feature is absolutely awesome! What a shame that bacause of certain peoples dvd players we can't have this great feature. I fink it very useful. Dion, is there a way to revise this feature so it doesn't freeze up on peoples dvd players so we can keep this function?

Thanks Dion. I really do enjoy the feature. Your dvd quality is already top notch. This feature makes your product the best in the business as far as im concerned! Thanks again.

I also agree on this.

i have a Pioneer player and this feature does NOT interfere with my ability to ffw or rwd and I also really like this feature.

Here's hoping you can find a way of keeping it in without adverse effects to some players.

Keep up the great work - another RLD title (SMP 1) on it's way to me as I type this :-) - that reminds me I must buy some more tissues ;-)

See it your dvd authoror can make this feature an OPTION.
See if it's possible for the viewer to disable this feature if the viewer doesn't want it on the screen during the movie.
I don't like on screen menus at all and would have to stop buying RLD titles alltogether if this feature is not optional.
I already refuse to buy any more Jules Jordan titles until the watermark is a thing of the past. And if it stays, they will have lost my business, I'll buy other porn that doesn't have it instead.
I just thought you might want to know that there are people out there that do not like anything on the screen other than the sex when watching porn.
Thanks for listening.

I have several RLD titles with the feature.
I have a high-end DVD player, so it has no problems with remote functions being disabled.

I do find the commands on screen to be somewhat distracting.

But ... I like being able to jump forward to the next sequence.

All RLD needs to do to satisfy everyone is simply include more chapter stops in each scene. JUst skip the menu. People can figure out for themselves.

I don't know if this was answerd so I'll ask it here.
Does 100% Natural 4 have the onscreen feature?

No, 100% Natural #4 does NOT have this feature, neither does XXX Road Trip #3.
There is no onscreen menu on either one, and hopefully on any others in the future.

@M.B., I learned in Vegas talking to Evil Angel that all Jules Jordan product will carry the watermark, and for the very serious reason that his movies are being incredibly widely pirated. The watermark is a sign of authenticity which helps Evil Angel go after the pirates and protect their investment.

--Speelie--

Evil Angel already admitted here on this board that the watermark won't really be used to go after people with. It was put there so that when people pirate the movie and put it on the web, it "let's people know who shot the movie", kind of like an advertisement.
But those that pirate these movies will just put their own logo over it or blur it out altogether.
I think they are wasting their time with this whole watermark thing.
I love Jules porn, but I can't stand watermarks and I refuse to pay good money for any dvd that has one. It's intrusive to the viewers experience (mine anyway), and I just don't see how it will do anything to stop people from pirating this movie. Why put it one on the dvd and not the vhs? Doesn't make sense to me.
Anyway, it's their movie and they can do whatever they want to it or with it, just don't expect me to buy it.

That's very weird. The copy of 100% Natural #4 I rented didn't have the onscreen menu, and neither does Brand New which I rented a couple of days ago.

My 110% #4 does have the menu! And it does fuck up play on my Panasonic carousel.

Dion, I actually love the feature IF there is a way to make it compatible with all of the players. Panasonic is not exactly what I'd call an off-brand! And it is only a year old, so it's not as if it's out of date.

Maybe I got the titles mixed up guys.
I do know for sure that XXX Road trip #3 and Brand New do not have the onscreen menu.
100% Natural #4 probably does have it as two people here say their copies do, I only rented it so it was probably my mistake in thinking it didn't have it.
But I'm positive the other two I listed above don't have it.

xxxroad trip does have it. Or at least it just says it on the box. I didn't get a chance to watch it yet.

I rented and watched it last week and no onscreen menu of any kind popped up while I was watching it or Brand New.

That's correct. 110% Natural #4 was the last DVD that had the menu. It has been eliminated from all subsequent releases.

So just to be clear if I ordered 110% Natural it wouldn't
have the on screen menu? Sometimes If I bump my head I have
to bump it again just to make sure.

100% Natural #4 does have the onscreen menu.
Brand New and XXX Raod trip #3 do not have the menu.
If you go to RLD any title listed above 100% natural #4 does not have the menu.
I hope this helps.
