Doomsday issue - Blu-ray Forum

pacificvibes · 09-09-2008, 10:40 PM

I searched the thread but of course I found nothing about Doomsday, soo here it is. I popped it in just the other day and in the very beginning I had noticed horizontal lines throughout the picture. The weren't subtle, you could totally see them and it was distracting. None of my other movies have this problem so I thought it was the transfer. As anyone else seen these lines in Doomsday??

Sorry, did not notice such issue. You probably got a defective copy.

pacificvibes · 09-09-2008, 10:52 PM

Yeah probably, Im going to return it and try another one. The lines made a straight line jagged. But at least I know someone has a good copy

Same for me. Awesome PQ and really fun movie throughout.

I've watched it twice and didn't notice anything like that either time. I'll try to watch the beginning again tonight though and look specifically for that.

Thats weird. I pause the movie and then of course they go away, but just like Blu Titan, I probably have a defective copy.

I know some folks had some issue with dots showing up on the screen with this title, and the fix was to toggle the U-Control on and off a few times and they would disappear. Doubt this will fix your problem, but hey, worth a try before you have to exchange your copy. Great flick, by the way.

mine looks fine

I noticed this problem with the copy I got from Netflix. My lines, more like a series of horizontal dots actually, were at the top and bottom of the screen in the black bar area. It was fairly distracting though. Hope you get it worked out.

My copy had no issues.

pacificvibes · 09-10-2008, 02:46 AM

Wow didnt think so many people had problems, I will go trade it in tomorrow and then see if its any different.

What players and firmwares are people using? I wonder if it's a firmware issue, since so many people are reporting it.

I'm using a PS3 with the latest firmware version (2.42 I believe), and I just checked my copy of Doomsday and it seemed fine.
