My point exactly. Sorta irks me slightly when someone proposes (i.e. "Have you tried...?") something that you already know about, and already know doesn't work. Although I do keep an open mind, and hope I'm wrong -- it would make life way easier in this case.

Moth3r, you and I have the same player, and therefore the same problem. Don't know quite how to solve it. I wish every LD had a test pattern on it somewhere, so one could optimize levels independent of the movie!
