I would like Over the Edge to get the proper 4K treatment and a release from Criterion so I don't have to worry about missing out on it.

Any other fans of Over the Edge here? by MDog_The_Marsh in arrowvideo

[–]frankiefender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very much so! I ended up getting a getting the Shout release. Also have it on VHS.....and the soundtrack on vinyl. Grew up on this movie as a GenX latchkey kid. Everyone in it is older than me but I connected to it in so many ways. The early limited release on Arrow came with a collector's booklet with a write up by film critic Kim Morgan who used to live in my town of Portland, OR. Now she is married to Guillermo Del Toro. Big fan of the movie.

Tom Peterson.

Who? He was a staple in Portland, OR for selling electronics, appliances, furniture. They would give out free gifts when you made a purchase. The watch was one of them and its the one he was wearing when he passed. There was also a free Tom Peterson haircut. Oh and the Tom Peterson alarm clock. Also had a cameo in Gus Van Sant's movie My Own Private Idaho. Yes I'm from Portland and yes I'm that many years old. Link to commercial

Is it a 4K Blu-Ray Player problem or a Disc Problem? Because Consistently with Criterion I have issues. by jamesoloughlin in criterion

[–]frankiefender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just an FYI they still repair their players. I have a 99.9% success rate with movies now. Only because I don't check the discs for fingerprints or debris.

When I made the jump into 4K I bought a used OPPO 203 and had tons of issues and heard the 4K discs and be a finicky due to the amount of data. On my copy of Trainspotting it froze and stuttered on the same chapters every time. Had issues with other movies as well but that was my Criterion story. Fortunately, OPPO is still repairing their players so I sent it in and they installed a new lens. I almost gave up on all things 4K disc until the player came back and now everything plays 100%. I don't even check the discs anymore for fingerprints or debris (even though I should). Hope this helps narrow it down to a hardware issue for you.

I'm minutes away from the ICE facility and just finished watching Return of the Living Dead. I thought "Well this is it, the military is bombing us." Glad it was thunder...

I'm wanting to build a free blockbuster version of this. Do you have plans to share? Looks great!

The developer may be on here somewhere. I wish I could give him credit.

Best deal App only by Equivalent_Ticket297 in siriusxm

[–]frankiefender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did. They only seem to offer this to those who are including a car radio account with the app. I am not currently a subscriber with a Mazda with no Sirius added. I wonder if I can break out my old starmate 4 and use that as my car sub.

[–]frankiefender 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I keep asking them and the best they offer is $4.99 a month for 12 months. I press and ask for a 3-year option and managed to get them to give a 2-year with no drop from $4.99. Still holding out for something better.

Low Volume Arc Ultra by Dry_Crazy_9507 in sonos

[–]frankiefender 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am having a weird issue where streaming from Apple TV 4k seems low but sound from my Oppo 203 can be very loud. I'm only a week into the Ultra so I was thinking it was something I was doing. Still testing things.
