RE: DVD - A Playback problems.
I am waiting for a replacement to come any day now!
RE: DVD - A Playback problems.
I`ve connected up the DVD Player using the analogue out to analogue in on the processor. I know this is working with Fleetwood Mac, as I disconnected the Digital Coax and DVD A was fine. I set the processor to 6 Channel input for listening.
RE: DVD - A Playback problems.
Yeah, I`ve done all that but still no luck. I have since sent the disc back to futureent.com and see what they come up with. Not much probably!
RE: DVD - A Playback problems.
Yeah, I`m just getting into the music myself. It takes a little time after all these years of Stereo and Mono! I will post a message when I reach a solution on my disc. I am sending it back to Futureent and see what happens.
RE: DVD - A Playback problems.
Yes I have connected it up correctly. I am begining to think it could be the disc. Strange though, the producers have a very good name in the U.S.
Chesky Records. If you get chance and you like Jazz, check this disc out it is superb, even in normal 5.1!
DVD - A Playback problems.
I have recently purchased a Pioneer 656 A DVD player, of which I am most impressed. The problem I have however, may or may not be to do with the player itself. I have set the player and processor to play DVD A discs and with my first disc Fleetwood Mac`s Rumours, I have had no problem, it is superb. The problem comes when the second disc I bought, Bucky Pizzarelli `Swing Live`. The disc should play straight away, which it does and the counter reading clicks over, on pressing the audio button, the onscreen menu states that the correct section of the disc is playing, ie the DVD A track. However, there is no sound, popping Fleetwood Mac back in it plays without fault.
The disc will play the Dolby 5.1 mix and Stereo mix, ie in the DVD Video section of the disc. My player is connected to a Yamaha DSPE 800E proccessor and NAD C340 amp.
Has anybody got any suggestions on what may be wrong, it could be a faulty disc, faulty player (unlikley) or the proccessor not... well proccessing correctly. Any info would be very helpful.
RE: Cannibal Holocaust, is it as hard to watch as everyone seems to say?
I saw this film when it came out and it stayed with me for days after. Friends of mine who had also seen the film said much the same thing.We were young at the time (fourteen or fifteen) and the film may not now have the same impact today.
I am suprised the film has been rereleased as i have seen no mention of this anywhere, i do know that existing prints omit some scenes notable a "Piranha Bait" scene, there may well be other cuts.The running time should be around 95 mins.To sum up it is as i remember a disturbing if not great film from a time when watching these films was considered to be less than desirable pass time! oh happy days.
RE: A & B Sound Any Good?
This may or may not help, i have been to A&B Sounds on numerous occasions whilst on holiday there and they are one of the best shops of this type i have been into.Over the years i have been going they have got better and better, its not only dvds that are cheap check out the cd prices.Unlike places like HMV the listening posts comprise of top quality hi-fi seprates and the staff are very keen to help,knowledgable with it to.
