DVD guinea pig

I need someone to experiment on. Don't worry it won't be painful just a bit time consuming. Well maybe a bit painful.

You know I mentioned my 05/06 DVD here. Well, I need a guinea pig for the NTSC version. I know the PAL version looks fine but my multi-region DVD player isn't always reliable with NTSC discs. I'm aware there are some interlacing issues on a couple of the vids, this I can't fix. I do want to know though if the rest of the DVD is up to scratch. I'm thinking specifically of navigation issues and menu screen picture quality etc. The file is 2.55GB

Email me at charmax[at]bronze-ambition[dot]net and I'll send the password.

ETA: I have the help I need now, thanks! ;)

You can send me a NTSC disc or a PAL disc. It doesn't matter. My machines read both. So if you want to send a test NTSC one to me, that would be fine.

Thank you so much for offering!
Initially, I was looking for a downloader because I'm not yet ready for sending out dvds, would you be able to download the files? If you can't I will send you a hard copy. Email me with your contact details if you can only do the second option.

Yeah, I could download them. Sending you an e-mail.

I have contacted you with the details now. :)

ceridwyn2, did you manage to download the files? If not then that's ok, I had other volunteers. Just let me know either way.

I managed to get one of the files by internet connection the other night decided it was going to go a little nuts. So it was sporadic. Will try again, but glad you've got the folks you needed as well.

Don't worry if it's too sporadic, I've already tried it out on another volunteer so I'm happy to say it's good to go. If you want the dvd and can't completely download it give me a few weeks and I'll send you a hard copy. Thank you so much for trying!
