Munsters: Complete series
I just read the review of "The Munsters: the complete series" and the reviewer doesn't mention if the theatrical film "Munster go home" is an anamorphic transfer.
does anyone know??
does anyone know??

Also I have The Munsters - America's First Family of Fright (Documentary) (2000) that I bought in a recent DD sale. It looks like most of the features have been ported over. Does anyone know if ALL the features have been ported over??? (and what ones are missing)

Re: Munsters: Complete series
I know this thread is very old and I'll probably be crucified for this but I just got this set and it has an astoundingly low bitrate. 3.6 GB for 7 or 8 25 min episodes. I am posting this cause the reviews on this site speak of a "consistently high bitrate" and no compression artifacts when just the opposite happens. Night Gallery (by Universal too) isn't much better but it doesn't have the mad dct blocking this set has. I paid $22 for 12 discs so not too mad but this is worse than Mill Creek level compression.
The bottom of the box says dual layer though so maybe I bought a misprint off ebay? I don't think so cause the originals were 3 double sided single layer, right?

The box looks just like the universal images on amazon. If anyone would be so kind, could you look at any of your discs and see if there is just one layer code on the inner ring of the bottom? Dual layer would usually have to codes, one for L0, one for L1.

Re: Munsters: Complete series
This is starting to make me sick and I am about to file a claim. I just looked at the provider ID in pgcedit and it says (Fab8130) and there is no copy protection except for some unplayable cells. Also it's region free when the box says R1.
These things look just like Universal factory pressed and the box even has a lenticular Munsters logo.
Fab8130 is dvdfab, a program to rip dvds to computers and remove all copy protection and also to shrink them. I think the seller is clueless based on his reply. Universal gave me a standard "these are dual layer discs" reply. Anybody ever deal with a situation like this?
No wonder these were cheap.

Re: Munsters: Complete series
I got an immediate full refund with the seller saying "I'm sorry this happen to you I can offer full refund" and they didn't want it shipped back (I don't want this piece of crap). But I want to alert everyone else about this cause he/she sold a lot of them. I bet ebay doesn't even care. I guess I'll just leave very negative feedback.
