RE: What Kit would you recommend for my bedroom????

I am thinking about getting the Panasonic SCDT100S, It`s had a glowing report and House of Fraser are selling it for £299.00 reduced from £449.99.and has a am/fm digital tuner besides dts and d.d.

RE: Watching Sky on another tv in the house using the tv link gadget?

Jules, I am very interested in what you say about watching sky on another T.V. This is what I want to do. Is it a special lead and does it have to have a scart on the end. Also would the quality be as good as from the original source.

RE: Ordering from Australian DVD stores.

Just received Band of Brothers from Dvd Crave in 4 days, and low cost of about $94.00 inc delivery. No problems with Ezy or Crave and I don`t think you will get a better price.

Band Of Brothers

Does anybody know if any stores( or Internet Sites) have this in stock. I have tried many stores but it is out of stock.I also notice the R1 has a DTS soundtrack,has anyone got this region.

RE: Superbit DVDs. Any good?

I bought Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, only because it was priced at DVDImport as $17.52, I thought about cancelling it but because the price was so good I decided to go ahead( I already have region 4 ).
There is only a very slight difference and not worth the extra cost, unless you get them at a bargain price.

RE: Which should I get - R1 or R2 Terminator 2?

Definately region 1, it`s a quality disk.I don`t like the tin case on the region 2 anyway I think it looks like a biscuit tin.The metal case on the region 1 looks the business. I think we have a winner here.

RE: Cheapest site for Mummy Returns Collectors Edition Widescreen?

Order from Ezy it has a dts soundtrack and is pal, also think it is less than £15.99

RE: Computer Not Playing Multi Region?

I have Toshiba dvd-rom-sd-m1212 with Hardware cinemaster dvd card.
I have looked on the site but don`t really know what I am doing. I don`t know which fix to download.

RE: Computer Not Playing Multi Region?

Yes I have tried this but won`t work on mine. Is it because of the DVD drive or something you can`t change on one of the pc cards. I have a Dell and although I can change 6 times, it will set itself on the last region selected. Does anyone know if I can change this without any problems

RE: R2 star wars: phantom menace (what do you think??)

I agree Westy, I find no difference between region 1 & 2 on my 100hz Sony Haute Couture TV. I think the DVD is a bargain at under £13.00 delivered although it is from DVDIMPORT.

RE: Ezy do it again!

You are allowed £18.00 excluding the cost of postage and packing, but I am sure you have read many times, ask them to package as a gift and the allowance goes up to £36.00 excluding postage and packing

RE: Confussed about DVDImport Pricing

I have noticed that 2 dvd`s have been posted today from DVDIMPORT. Will let you all know when they arrive. I am getting free delivery by Canada Post.

RE: True Lies (R2) - sound problems

I have just received region 4 and I dont think there are any problems with the sound, in fact I found the sound very good, is the problem only on the zone 2 disk.? I will listen to it again just in case I have missed it.

RE: Godfather Boxset, Region 2

Thats a great idea( everyone rushing down to Smiths) But what is the quality like ?, picture and sound.

Non Delivery of DVD`s

Does anyone know if we are covered if we do not receive the disks we order from companies on the internet if we have paid by Visa. I understand Barclaycard cover them but I am not sure if all the other Card companies cover them. This is in the light of non delivery of disks from DVDIMPORT and other companies. Any information is much appreciated.

RE: Star Wars Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace on VCD

can I ask where you ordered from to get it so soon, I have ordered from DVDIMPORT and i wnder if I will ever get this one at all.

RE: Changing your details at DVDimport

I understand, but you are not able to change anything yourself from the account including cancelling orders. You have to send them a message from the your account but they dont respond. I am concerned that this company is not going to fullfill the orders, I have 3 disks outstanding and I have written to them from the order on the account 3 times without any reply. I understand that they charge your credit card when you order.
I think the best way would be to call them to change your address and while your on the phone give them a good telling off. Hope you get sorted.

RE: Confussed about DVDImport Pricing

I am getting very concerned about this company. The emails are now being returned saying they will not reply to emails. You must send messages from their site. But when you do they do not reply. I have been waiting for Memento and the order is still in process. I am sure I have been charged but find the customer service has gone somewhat downhill. Be aware of this before you order from this company.

Best for good service and Value

www.ezydvd.com are one of the best. Most disks arrive from Oz within 4 days from order and have excellent prices. well done to ezy.

RE: Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon Superbit

thanks Westy I will order zone 4 from Ezy.

Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon Superbit

Does anyone now if I should order the Superbit zone 1 with DTS sound edition or just go for the Zone 4 edition which had had excellent reviews

Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon Superbit

Does anyone now if I should order the Superbit edition or just go for the zone 4 edition. The zone 4 has had great reviews but would the superbit with DTS sound win it over. sorry should have placed in Software forum.

RE: Best price for Planet of the Apes (2001)?

I know this doesn`t help, but I think this film is not worth buying at any price. although the film is in DTS .Try dvdexpress.com $20.24 = £13.79 plus post. Also dvdimport $21.76 = £14.83 and no postage charge if you choose Canada Post.

Sony multi region DVD

Can anyone tell me if they have problems with the dvd going out of sync between the picture and the sound, I can realine the sound by stopping the dvd and starting it again, but this is annoying. Any answers to this problem.
