HEVYDEVY FORUMS

I'm almost in tears.

I got home late tonight, to find that my Special Edition Synchestra had arrived! Euphoric, I tore upstairs to my computer (quietly, the rest of the family is sleeping), to watch the DVD.

It doesn't even read.

Upon REPLACEing it into my LG 4081B DVD-everythingunderthesun Drive, Windows thinks about it for a minute, and then decides that the drive is, in fact, a CD Drive, and that there's nothing in it. (WinXP, SP2, bleahbleahetc.)

Bearing in mind that I have not yet tried it on our Sony DVD player, is it more likely that there's a fault with the DVD, or a hardware incompatibility? Anyone have any advice? (I've uninstalled Daemon Tools, as I've heard that can bugger with LG Drives, but other DVDs are working perfectly. It's frickin' Region 0, I'm not supposed to be having any trouble with this)

My heart is broken. It's sitting right in front of me, and there's nothing I can do about it.
Today, I am not a man.

I just grabbed my copy from a local store here in Australia, popped the DVD in my computer at work and had the same problem as you. I'm not stressing too much about it at the moment as I have yet to try it on my DVD player or PC at home.

Can't help much more than that. Sorry.

yeah, just watch it on your dvd player and experience the brilliance of the dvd! It's amazing

I bought the special edition from inside out, from an australian store... DVD works fine.

I've found one easter egg so far.... its very cool... hahahah

I tried it on my computer and it wasn't working either, but then I put it into my DVD player with the television and it works perfectly.

What?? It doesn't work in PC drives?

I just bought a DVD drive a few weeks ago specifically so I could watch this... I don't even own a TV, much less a separate DVD player.

My synchestra order hasn't arrived yet, so I'll have to see how it works out.

Update: Still no dice getting it to work in my PC, but I've had a chance to try it in the DVD Player, and there's no problem with it.

That would make the very first DVD I've ever met that my computer couldn't handle - be warned, friends! If you're banking on being able to watch it on your computer, you may well have a night like mine.

Thanks for everyone's input.

I run of Win XP as well, but didn't have any problems in my PC DVD drive - thank fucking God! Cause fuck that in-studio gig they play is amazing!!! All of them were so tight and The Dev's singing was spot on.

Anyone else have a Mac? No problems with the computer drive here...

Yeah. Same here.
But the menus are damn slow.

I've not tried it in my PC, but it works fine in my Xbox.

It works fine on my PC. Strangeness....

Oddly enough, the DVD works fine on my PC but in my DVD player I only get sound, no picture. Very strange.

I've got two.

No problems either.

My Macs love it.....All the dvd players in the house are cool with it.
