Hi all,

A huge thanks to Adywan for all of his hard work!  These are my first foray into AVCHD, and my player is known to be rather finicky with the format.  I just finished watching ANH, and the picture is astounding!  I noticed a couple of things which I attribute to my player (Pioneer Elite 05FD), and not the disc (I really hope I do not have a bad download).  First, lip sync was lost multiple times (to the tune of 1-2 seconds), and then corrected itself after a scene or two (?!?).  The main one was repeatable: when R2 is sacked by the Jawas, the sound goes out of sync when the head Jawa jumps out with the EMP gun (or whatever it is) and fires.  The audio is about a second behind the picture (so the classic "thud" when R2 falls over is late).  By the next scene, all is right again.  Second, there were several random pauses (similar to a layer change on SD-DVD) or what looked like bad jump edits (not repeatable).  I would think if the download (or DVD burn) were corrupt, the disc would not play at all.  Thoughts?


Thanks again to Adywan!
