i played the game and had the same problem, and with the slow loading time it can get aggravating - figured out the thing to do is hit 'enter' when you find the water. after that it's moving rocks out of the way - "frustrating" doesn't come near describing this part of the game. if you screw up moving rocks it kicks you all the way to the hallway.

There should have been a 6 pointer certificate in the blue envelope (along w/ a booklet of coupon savings).
I haven't have a chance to play this disc on a Pioneer DV-414 but from the other poster, looks like I'm going to have slowness to deal with...

I have a Toshiba 5109, menus are a bit slow,
but otherwise, plays fine. Does Chapters,
search forward and reverse. Nice sound
and great picture. I actually enjoyed this!
Thanks CC and BB for a 10 dollar buy!

I was so sure I was going to have problems on my Toshiba SD-2108. But I didn't. I had a long lag time in the menus but that's all.
But then again, I've only seen the first five minutes or so of the movie. Knock on wood maybe the rest of the movie is okay.

Add the RCA 5220P to the list.... but with different problems, it all loads fine, but whne I watch the movie, it will automatically jump from one time to another, like from 1:27 to 4:56, and 10:46 to 14:26, so I can't watch the whole thing.
Let's see what happens.

Troubles with Dinosaur : CE DVD.
Talk about disappointment!!
I own over 250 DVD's and this is the first DVD that would not play back in my player, an RCA RC5220P [played back "Matrix", "Walking With Dinosaurs", A number of the James Bonds DVD's].
After trying to get this DVD to play back in my RCA, I tried it in two computers that I have with DVD-ROM (Creative Labs 2X & Raite 8X) drives and it would not play back correctly in either of them, trying three different software interfaces(PC Friendly packed with the DVD, PowerDVD, WinDVD)!
I have tried to exchange the DVD with one that looked as if it was pressed differently than the fist one.
The one thing that I have noticed on these two DVD's is that the imprinting on the interhub seems to be messed up.
The first DVD did not have any form of bar code imprinted and the second one the bar code overlapped itself.
What can I do about getting a correctly pressed DVD? or Refund?

No problems with my Sony 7700. CE Plays like a charm. DTS is incredible and the picture was outstanding!

Although it ran on my Panasonic A110, the fast-forward and reverse buttons were disabled at different points throughout the film. This probably has to do with the multi-angle code, since I've found this in some other multi-angle discs

I have the Toshiba 3109, and the disc will not play at all. Just sits there flashing "LOADING". The supplemental disc works, but takes a LONG time to load. I exchanged it three times before seeing this post and they all did the same thing.
How will we know when the do a recall/replacement?

APEX 800A here. MOvie plays fine until scene 26 when instead of showing the last scene it just jumps to the credits. I noticed that the graphics do not line up on the scene selection menu as well. No other problems, yet, but I haven't completely checked the whole DVD out.
