Hi,
I just got my copies of Euro Angels 3 & Kelly's Way To Love in the mail today and I have had problems on the DVD player I use in my room. EA3 locks up after a couple of chapters while KWTL refuses to load at all. Now both discs play fine on the Power DVD on my computer and fine on the Panasonic DVD player in the living room. The player in my room is my XBox, which for space purposes doubles as gaming system & DVD player. These are the only two discs of any genre that I've had problems with on the X and I was just wondering if I was alone on this one or were these early EA releases and might have something a little hinky in the mastering process. Thanks for any and all help or suggestions outside of not using my XBox as a DVD player.
Best

Out of all 248 discs I currently own, only one will not play on my stand alone DVD player(s), and that title is Rogue Adventures 3 (also from Evil Angel). I've exchanged that copy 3 times with DVDempire, and all three copies won't play the last two scenes.

I used to be able to play it on my DVD-Rom but that was lost when I reformated my HD (Basically because the rescue disc got scratched and I couldn't load the DVD program back in.)

So, 1 out of 248 isn't bad, though I'd really like to see that title in it's entirety.

Max B,

I'm running at about the same rate as BIGmike. The few discs that won't play on my standalone player, play perfectly on my PC DVD player. So I am able to play ALL my discs on one or the other.

So don't know if it's a hinky in the mastering process, of idiocyncracies in the DVD player.

thanks for the answers....I own about 150 XXX discs and about 1,200 mainstream DVDs so having problems with two of them is no big deal I just thought it was odd for both those discs to arrive in the same package and to come from the same company....which lead me to my question about if there were problems with some early EA releases....the only problem it raises for me is my bedroom player is the only place I can watch porn....long story short....my Dad died and I moved back home to help my Mom clear a lot of things up. While I know she knows I like porn I try to show her some respect by confining my smut watching to the room I'm staying in...oh well....just gotta deal...
Thanks

Yeah, I've run into 2 titles in about 1000 that I have trouble with. Blowjob Babes won't work on my standalone, but is fine on my PC. Love Is In The Web won't work on the PC, but it is fine on the standalone. Go figure!

Max -
while Euro Angels 3 is one of our older titles, Kelly's Way to Love is on the newer side (although not brand new.)
We don't use the same replication companies that did either of those titles anymore, so perhaps that is the problem?

Unfortunately, not all DVD players are the same specs, so it's hard for us to figure out exactly what's going on in each situation.
We had problems with PS2 for awhile too, but those seem to have gone away.

thanks for taking the time to respond Tricia...its not a huge deal I just thought it was odd. Doesn't change the fact that EA puts out the best DVD product. Period.

tricia-

out of curiosity, do you deliver DVD-Rs for authoring to the replicator or do you deliver on DLT? We have found that on some of the lower end clients that request DVD-R delivery that the finished, replicated product is more prone to have playback errors and glitches than product that we have delivered on DLT. And if they are delivered on DVD-R, some of the individual brands of DVD-R themselves tended to yield higher failure rates than others. I am also a believer that it depends upon the hardware you do the encoding with. In other words, a dvd made by a Spruce, Daiken or higher end Sonic system has less failure percentage than say a system using software based encoding, like iDVD, etc. Anyway, I'd be curious to know if you've experienced any of the same results with your guys' stuff and also what kind of system you do your encoding and authoring on.
