Disc rot?

[Amethyst]

Or more likely the dvd player is being fickle... I have a Panasonic that would play any HK's, dvdr's, R1's great... then after a couple of years or so, it stopped reading the dvdr's... and then the HK's... still plays R1's fine though... and sometimes the others.. but when it stopped reading them, I bought a new player...

And some dvd players just won't play some HK dvd's... we've had this discussion before... what works for some people, doesn't work for others... Apex usually plays anything depending on the model... (older model played anything, but newer model doesn't) but the catch is it doesn't play them extremely well in the way of video quality, or it doesn't play them for long cause it just doesn't last as a dvd player. Usually about a year or so... but then they are cheap... shrug...
