Problems with Star Wars bonus disk?
Sorry about another SW thread, but I didn't really see another suitable place ....
Anyway, is any one else having troubles playing any parts of the bonus disk? My player (Toshiba 6109C) locks up every time I try to watch any of the trailers or the Episode III content. When I pop it into my computer, it locks up the same places exceptwhen I use the Interactual player.
Do you think this is a defective disc or compatibility issue?

Was gonna start this same topic latter tonight but thought I should respond that my older sony player has the same problem. Not sure whether im glad it is not just specific to me or not.
edit: mine acctualy jumps back to the begining of the preview but the strange thing is i can fast forward through that point and avoid the problem

Just as an update ....
I tried a different copy of the bonus disc and it worked fine on my player. I must have just gotten a bad disc.

My bonus disc in the EMPIRE OF DREAMS documentary has some minor hiccups at the following spots (possibly others) ..........
8:09 (Gary Kurtz speaking)
32:01 (Peter Mayhew starts to speak)
2:23:46 (George talking about changes to Star Wars movies)
2:28:15 (Last scene of a New Hope)
In all the above scenes there seems to a minor audio/video skip or hiccup. The dvd continues to play and doens't really miss anything, but it's a bit annoying. This happens on my BRAND NEW AKAI DVDRW120 dvd recorder. My MAGNASONIC dvd player and DVD-ROM do not show this problem whatsoever and they are older than the AKAI unit.
