The Two Towers Ch 51 again

Post Published:


I don’t know why, but suddenly, after posting this, I think “Area 51”. I’m no UFO conspiracy buff either. Oh well, worth inserting. Ho Hum. On to the actual post.

I posted first about it here

Many people have come to view that post from searching on different search sites. I’m finding more info out there now, this is widespread and a problem that needs to be resolved. It’s a glitch. It’s a glitch. It really, really is. But the question remains, as I ask below.

It’s bothersome that it is like this. The movie, for us works on my laptop and one other DVD player we have, but not on the one player we would tend to view this movie on the most. One article I read said to return it for a new one, it takes up to three times doing that to find one that’s good. Well, if it’s the disc, why does it play flawlessly on some players, but the same disc skips on other players? That’s what bugs me the most.

We bought it on August 26, returned it on August 28, I wobbled on wanting to return “my precious” DVD without hope of a true fix. So that return “exchange” had the same problem.

The article I referenced above [but didn’t link, don’t look for that here right now!] also said to go to the store and return and exchange for a new disc, but if they have DVD players operational on the floor, open the DVD set and play it to be sure it works. Yeah, but it’s only certain players that have this problem. For instance, in our home it’s the SONY C650D player that it skips at Ch 51. The stores don’t carry that model anymore. 🙂

Well, we’ll try the exchange again, but really, it gets old, before the first exchange.

I love this movie. I’ve watched it on my laptop a few times now. It’d be nice to watch it from a more relaxing viewpoint, viewing a larger picture.

I’ll be sure to report our personal findings, and links to other stuff when it comes up.
