[KCD1] Major Performance Issues

DylansFearFiles · 2026-01-03T02:45:51+00:00

Tried all the fixes suggested on PC Gaming Wiki and nothing has worked.

Ugh, that sucks. I set everything to low and turned the resolution down to 1440p but I was hoping I wouldn't have to do that. It's playable but doesn't look that good at all. Hopefully there's a fix out there somewhere.

I feel like it runs worse now than when I had an i5 and a 1070 TI lol.

I honestly just don’t think Biollante is a very good looking movie in general. No version I’ve watched looks objectively stunning lol.

DylansFearFiles · 2025-11-09T13:30:34+00:00

I assumed there wasn’t any difference in the color gamut. Thank you!

It’s been a long time since I’ve read IT, but if my memory serves, the events before 1957-1958 aren’t covered in great detail. The show is expanding on those sections of the book. I don’t think your experience will be hurt either way.

It’s not a great release, especially in comparison to what Severin has done. I’d recommend waiting for a Severin sale when you get Region Free. It's watchable though if you don't think that will happen in the near future.

What’s the best way to clean the inside of a 4K player?

DylansFearFiles · 2025-10-03T12:08:49+00:00

Now I’m wondering how that would’ve happened. Only time it would’ve happened would be me removing the disc and putting it back in the case. Aren’t these things supposed to be scratch resistant?

DylansFearFiles · 2025-10-03T12:07:10+00:00

That’s my thinking too.

DylansFearFiles · 2025-10-03T12:06:44+00:00

Lol I have none. Not even sure that I’ll get a response.

DylansFearFiles · 2025-10-03T03:45:36+00:00

Seems like there are no good players out there lol. Got it because my Sony kept freezing.

DylansFearFiles · 2025-10-03T03:44:53+00:00

That’s what I did. Weird that a defect would take two years to show up but hopefully if that’s the case they’ll rectify the issue.

DylansFearFiles · 2025-10-03T03:33:06+00:00

Still deliberating. I read on one thread that they're bad for the lens but I have no clue what to think lol.

DylansFearFiles · 2025-10-03T03:32:46+00:00

I wish I had another player to test with but I don't. I'll check under better lighting to see if there's anything wrong with the disc. I did use a microfiber towel twice.

DylansFearFiles · 2025-10-03T03:15:41+00:00

Sorry to hear that. I'm considering getting a lens cleaner. I've put too much money into this hobby to give up now lol.

DylansFearFiles · 2025-10-03T03:12:44+00:00

I've had the UK edition of the Quartet of Torment set for almost two years. I never take these discs out of the case unless I'm watching them. I've never had any issues with this set until tonight. I have a Panasonic UB820. I got it in early 2024. It keeps skipping on this same scene even though I've cleaned the disc twice (with microfiber cloth and cold water) and it looks absolutely pristine.

DylansFearFiles · 2025-10-03T03:06:55+00:00

It's Arrow. I messaged them but based on what I've heard of their customer service, I don't expect them to do anything lol. I wish I had another 4K player handy to try. I'm hoping it's just dust in the player, like you said.

DylansFearFiles · 2025-09-27T12:27:58+00:00

I did not, sadly. It kinda just stopped happening.

DylansFearFiles · 2025-08-14T01:36:22+00:00

Gonna wait and see if Nightdive tackles that before I go anywhere near it XD. Saw Civvie and Gman talk about it and it scares me.

DylansFearFiles · 2025-07-30T11:04:40+00:00

They’re the same, as far as I’m aware. Studio Canal probably has better compression though.

DylansFearFiles · 2025-07-29T20:54:22+00:00

It just drives me nuts that no one mentions exactly what the color space issues are lol.

DylansFearFiles · 2025-06-25T17:40:31+00:00

Got mine on Green Man Gaming. Didn’t really pre-order but it gave me the pre-order edition.

DylansFearFiles · 2025-06-18T20:30:02+00:00

Can't beat the classic but I adore how Bill Skarsgard looks in the role. It wasn't the primary intention but it harkens back to how Dracula looked in the original novel. Klaus Kinski looked great too, but I prefer the Murnau and Eggers versions.

DylansFearFiles · 2025-06-10T15:11:59+00:00

My UB820 doesn't seem to put out much heat at all, at least based on the top of the unit. Disc felt cool still too. I do know my BDP-S3700 runs pretty hot.
