First one:
The files in Video_TS is dated 10:14:58 June 16, 2004
s/n L803 9661 22224060 @ R40702-06Y
There's also ANOTHER s/n on the disc that's written in mirror writing, and ends in 7Z

conclusions:
The time stamp in the Video_TS are the same
The normally written s/n is the same
The mirror written s/n is the same save one digit (a 7 and an 8)
So I'm stumped!!
On another note, I notice that the back of #1 looks like it's physically in better shape than that of #2.

Just an FYI that this still works.
I called up yesterday and told them the problem. The woman then asked for my name, address, whether I wanted Wide or Fool, and the dvd player that I had (Toshiba) - and it should be mailed out in a week.
