Farscape the Peace Keeper Wars box set.

R1 version on play is £8.99 and the playing time is 182 minutes long.
However the R2 version at £17.99 has a running time of 4 hours 7 minutes (247 mins) a full 1 hour 5 minutes longer, is this correct? Can anyone shed any light on this???

Running time between NTSC & PAL formats differs between the standards, one is greater than the other for the same content.

This would account for some of the perceived differences.



If we don`t take care of the customer, maybe they will stop bugging us.

Difference could be the mini-series run time against total run time including all the extras...

And those who see will fade and die,
And those who laugh will surely fall,
And those who know will always feel their backs against the thin wall...

Thought I had covered that, even if I couldn`t recall which was one that played longer. ;)

Extras are obviously extra.

I got the R2 release on Monday and Disc 1 is 88mins and Disc 2 is 88mins giving a total of 176 mins

As for the extras, they total roughly an hour so the total running time Play.com is listing is with extra features, the mini-series itself is around 3 hours long.
