Anyone having problems with the audio dropping out on the 7.1 track? It is doing it quite frequently on my copy. And in random places. Seems to me I had this issue with another Disney title but can't remember which one? The 5.1 track seems to be OK. Probably a hardware issue but thought I would check.

That's a common issue with TrueHD 7.1 tracks, especially in 3D films.

I watched my 2D copy last night and the entire 2nd half was constant drop outs.

Decoding in player and sending out PCM fixes it if it's like Brave and a few other Disney titles that have this issue (Monsters Inc, ?.....). I am just going to send PCM from the start to avoid this when I watch it today.

Bummer. Glad to know its not because I have a bad copy. It only seems to happen on my set up with Disney movies. I wonder why?

Default Another Non-3D slipcover from Disney

My copy FINALLY showed up today from the DMC (it was mailed on October 18 via, apparently, a slow boat,) and it did not have a 3D slipcover. Disney is starting to annoy me.

Just finished watching this and I noticed about half a dozen times the sound dropped for the briefest second, this was mainly when the sound got louder and in the final third or quarter of the movie. I Never noticed this with any other movies including brave, I only have a 5.1 setup so don't know if this makes difference or not.

Not just you. It dropped out for me when bitstreaming but not when letting the player do the decoding. But even when the player was decoding, I did notice a few pops in the audio track. I don't know what it is, but it seems to be something that I've been experiencing with the latest Dolby TrueHD tracks.

Having the same issue right now. Everytime a loud scene starts the sound drops off for a brief second.

This is not a unique or new issue. As already mentioned, it is often better to just send LPCM from your bluray player to your receiver to avoid potential handshake issues.
