I saw someone posted a thread asking if anyone had scratches in their disc 4. He asked the thread be closed due to a comment in one of the review threads (which I was unable to find). I dont have scratches on my S2 Disc 4, but I noticed a weird problem tonight while watching it.
Has anyone else noticed a weird "defect" in Disc 4, in the episode "And Now For a Word"?!?
It happened twice, both times at the SAME part of the episode. It is when they are in the council chambers, shortly after the Kosh-spotting scene. GKar, Londo, and Sheridan are all arguing. Near the end of that scene, my DVD suddenly skipped, and returned to the very begining of the episode --- right after the opening credits where they display the title of the episode.
After this happened, I went to the DVD menu, jumped to the previous chapter, then fast-forwarded to the same scene and watched it again. This time, while it didnt skip backward as before, it did HANG for a second, then slowly creeped forward through a part of the scene. While it was doing this slowly, the audio was slowed down as well, and the video had "boxed" artificts. After a very short sequence of this (it occured for no more than 5 seconds) the episode continued with no further problems. I even watched the next episode after it.
Now before this happened, I had watched about 3 episodes before it, but I have a good quality DVD player, and its never done things before while being run much longer. Also it did it at the SAME place in the disc, and after it happened, the occurance didnt repeat. I looked at the back of the disc and could see NO scratches or smudges.
I just thought it was odd that a couple other people commented about Disc 4, when I saw this. Can anyone else verify if they have encountered a similar problem? I am going to test this again tomorrow when I get home from work and see if it occurs again.
