In Reply to: After almost 400 Netflix rentals, few problems posted by brewthunda on January 9, 2002 at 15:16:45:
well i can't explain it. perhaps it's the kinds of films i'm renting:here's my current list, in no particular order:
Anatomy of a murder
The Intruder
Carnival of Souls
Bluebeard
The Great St. Louis Bank Robbery
A Hole in the Head
The Vanishing
The Scent of Green Papaya
Ticket to HeavenI've received a total of 4 films since I re-upped two months ago (I currenty have none), even though I keep at least ten in the que at all times, and of the four one had a few drop-outs and pixelations, and one wouldn't play at all.
I had been a member for a year or so a while back, and the failure rate was about 10%. Perhaps it's my machine: a Dennon DVD 5000. Do you know if the Dennon has a reputation for not tracking damaged discs? Or being able to play foreign films? I always check the "non-playable DVDs in the computer player as a cross-check but they seem to fail at the same place each time.
I hardly ever rent a movie that was or is showing at the local multiplex. I figure if it's popular with the American public, I'm not likely to be intellectually stimulating, and most likely to find deeply offensive senseless violence. The rare exception to this rule is if the film has some kind of spectacular technical effect, as in The Matrix.
What are the titles/categories of the rentals you had problems with?
What machine are you using?
