Hi there! I've recently bought the WCIV-DVD on ebay, man was I happy to finally get my hands on this! But now it seems that some of the movie files on side A are corrupt(if you wish, I could post which of them exactly).
The game itself works great (even the movies played well...at least one time, the second time and all the other times I wanted to play, the movies were running, but looked like badly encoded, with lots of artifacts, blurring etc, which I find a bit strange), but I have actually bought the DVD for the gorgeous movies, so I'm a bit sad.
When I try to open the .VOB-files, my MediaPlayer(6.4 Classic, yes it plays vobs, so that's not the problem
) will open, but the movie will not play, and when I try to close the MediaPlayer, my computer will hang himself up completely for about 30 seconds. I can't even copy those files to my harddisk, when I try, my computer says CRC-Error.
What also confuses me is the fact that at one time, several files which wouldn't play the day before suddenly worked fine, but unfortunately the other files were still corrupt. Also, some files are lacking sound...to be exact, in the scenes where Blair walks through the corridors of the Lexington and when you fly back to the Intrepid after having been on Telamon.
Oh, and at least two scenes that have been on the CD Edition are missing on the DVD Edition...the first one is the video that is showing the factory you want to raid, where the Bearcats are produced, and the second one is the scene after Blair is "fired" by Tolwyn(you know, this very sad scene where Blair wants to shake Tolwyn's hand, but he refuses). In the CD version, you see Blair who has returned to Nephele in a short conversation with the barman, but it is missing in the DVD version, at least I haven't found it yet.
Is there anyone out there who has encountered similar problems with the DVD or who knows how to help me see these movies? I would really appreciate that!

Is it good surround? And what about the two scenes I also mentioned, did you also notice that they were missing?
), so there is little chance I will ever watch it again in full lenght at her place.
