RE: Kodak digital camera worth £300 for £100 PLUS loads of accessories

I don`t think that is the same at all. Kodak is responsible for the security of their site and therefore they ought to take responsibility when there security is undermined. I am not condoning hacking but Kodak should have taken the appropriate steps to safeguard from such attacks or at least withdrawn the offer sooner.

RE: Godfather trilogy - any good deals? (no message)

I have just been on the site now it doesn`t appear to be b1g1hp. Is there a special link?

Play247 and Amores Perros R1

I purchsed the R1 Amores Perros dvd with play on the 5th Oct, at which time they stated that it had an english 2.0 soundrack. I recieved my goods today to find out that it didn`t. It is a canadian disc and I am assuming the American disc has the additional soundtrack. Can anyone confirm this?

Also is anyone in the same boat and what has been plays response?

RE: Wharefdale 750s soundtrack problems

Thankyou for your responses.

I have got the amplifier linked up with a optical cable. I have tried the same cable and amp with another DVD player (panasonic A160) and both DTS and DD ar recognised and work fine. I use the Wharfedale for Region 1 and this is where the problem has arisen with the DTS soundtracks (Almost Famous and Saving Private Ryan). The DD soundtrack is not recogised on region 1 or region 2 dvds.

On the basis of your replies I am guessing that there must be a compatibility issue between the 750s and the DSP-A5, or maybe I was incredibly unlucky and picked two 750s with identical faults!!

Wharefdale 750s soundtrack problems

I have a wharfedale 750s and a Yamaha DSP A5 amplifier and have encountered two major problems.

Firstly, the Amplifier does not recognise the Dolby Digital soundtrack on any DVDs and plays them as pro logic.

Secondly, when playing in DTS the sound randomly skips but the picture does not.

I would like to know whether others with the Wharfedale 750s and a different amplifier experience the same problems, and whether there may be a solution (firmware upgrade?)

RE: Amazing Wharfedale 750 Deal

It does seem like good value, but I have spoken to all of the tesco stores in Nottingham and they do not have any in stock.

I telephoned the strore in Baldock (a tesco extra) and they said that they had the dvd players in stock but they were £179.99. Could anyone tell me of a store near Nottingham (or one near the M1 between Nottingham and London) that sells the Wharfdale 750s for £99 please.
