Hi, I was thrilled to get home last night and put on the DVD I picked up. My DVD player couldn't read the disc. Kept coming up "Clean Disc". Well, the disc was/is clean. And all my other DVD's work fine. I guess I just got a bum DVD. Unfortunately, this was the only copy at my Best Buy they could find, so I'm not even sure when I'll be able to exchange it. Anyone else have any problems? Thx, Keith

I had the same problem. I'm not sure if it's a defective disc or if there's some compatibility issue overall with my DVD player. Mine's a Sony? What's yours?
I probably won't get back to Best Buy until this weekend to exchange it, unfortunately.

Plays in my Sony DVD player and my Mac, so it's possible you got a bum DVD. I would definitely exchange it.

Exchanged it. Same problem with the new one.
Guess I'll just bring it back and hope I have better luck with the later release.
A friend of mine tells me he had the same problem with the movie High Fidelity. He tried three different copies and none worked in his otherwise-fine DVD player.

Won't play in my Sony DVP-S360... have to play in my Mac.
Must be a problem with older DVD players...

As mentioned, I had no luck with either of the copies I tried from Best Buy and ended up returning them.
Picked up the new release with the extra tracks on it from a Borders, though, and that one works in my older Sony DVD player just fine. Ended up paying about $20 instead of Best Buy's $11, but at least it works.

Mine kept stalling during the "Redline" logo - about 5 times. But it finally decided to go. I'm playing it on my generic laptop. This is curious...never really heard about bum DVDs before this one...

Haven't had any problems with my DVD. It's such a great documentary.

My bonus track version freezes about 2/3 through the documentary when he's sitting on a green couch. I have to watch real close for the green couch and then fast forward past that part. Otherwise, thanks to no chapters, I have to start all over. I knew there was a reason (beyond the general weirdness of it) that I hadn't watched it again since the first time.

Hey Jill. thank you for your insightful contributions to the board. you really do, uhm, rock and I've noticed that you are continually rocking even harder. which is cool. ok, at first i hated the haiku thing but I'm over that. I just think you're totally smart and we're lucky to have you around.

listen you little annoyance....I happen to love David Cassidy, so F.U. Partridge family jokes are off limits because i said so. got it? and furthermore Gravy, don't be so presumptuous. Maybe I'm the protege and JillRocks, the high priestess of hiaku, is the mentor. imagine that.
PS. stop sending me PM's.

get it straight Gravy. your name, my name and the word 'relationship' are never to be packed into one sentence again. is that simple enough for you?
