Blu-ray discs that have "the glitch" - DVDfile.com forum for DVD, Blu-Ray, and HD-DVD

We might as well start this thread now since we can already begin with a few titles...then, let it grow, let it grow, let it grow.

POTC: Curse of the Black Pearl - misframing
Fifth Element - disc replacement in progress
T3 - check your discs to see if they have been produced with actual 1080p output and not just 1080i.

Fifth Element isn't really a glitch as much as a bad transfer and bad encoding. There are many discs like that I could name in both formats, so I don't know if it should really be called a glitch. More like Sony getting caught with their pants down when hd-dvd's looked so much better in comparison to most of their initial blu-ray discs. Thankfully they learned their lesson quickly. Still waiting for a new version of House of Flying Artifacts...er...Daggers.

There is also the Blade Runner 5th disc replacement. Where disc 5 should be workprint but is actually disc one again.

FYI - all three movies listed in the OP have "disc replacements in progress"

Yikes...really? I haven't gotten to disc 5 yet; are the discs mislabeled, or is there another copy of the first disc (label and all)?

Not enough time in the day...

FYI2: Corrected Pirates discs are also (like TFE) already on shelves. Still doesn't hurt to 2X check, as there's no clear identifier on the packaging (as on TFE).

Some folks got a HD DVD in their Blu-Ray Harry Potter box set.

HDScape: Fireplace - Visions of Tranquility inital batch of Blu-Rays do not work in the PS3 & they offer a replacement program from their site.

Only identifying marks are on the disc. (Corrected release - 2006 disc art)

I have significant playback issues with BCI's Night of the Werewolf/Vengeance of the Zombies Blu-ray on my PS3 w/ 2.10 firmware.
