Author Topic: bad james bond trailers Louis Belloisy Expert Film Handler Posts: 120 From: morris, ct usa Registered: Jun 2006 posted 10-13-2008 12:59 PM                        i have replaced several new solace trailers because even though the dts disc's state that they are on there, in fact they are not. i checked with one of our other theaters and its the same for them. so we have been running them in analog and that will drop out at times. so have removed all bond trailers from our films, waiting for replacements. anyone have this problem? louis  |  IP: Logged Blaine Young Master Film Handler Posts: 477 From: Kirkland, WA, USA Registered: Sep 2006 posted 10-13-2008 03:32 PM                     For the September 19th Trailer Disc, DTS dropped Trailer 1 (which begins with the chair being pulled across the floor) for Trailer 2. Trailer 1 has the incorrect opening date (November 7). If you're playing Trailer 1, there won't be any audio on DTS discs dated after 9/12. I've not had any problems with Trailer 2 playing in DTS with newer discs.  |  IP: Logged Michael Brown Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1522 From: Bradford, England Registered: May 2001 posted 10-15-2008 01:55 PM                     quote: Louis Belloisy so we have been running them in analog and that will drop out at times. Analog sound dropping out? I think you have a more serious problem than incorrect trailers if that really is the case.  |  IP: Logged Chris Slycord Film God Posts: 2986 From: 퍼항시, 경상푹도, South Korea Registered: Mar 2007 posted 10-15-2008 02:03 PM                     quote: Michael Brown Analog sound dropping out? I think you have a more serious problem than incorrect trailers if that really is the case. If it only happens during that trailer and not during the others on the same trailer pack or during the attached movie, it would be pretty unreasonable to blame anything other than the trailer in question don't you think?  |  IP: Logged John Wilson Film God Posts: 5438 From: Sydney, Australia.

Is it not printed in sections?  |  IP: Logged Michael Brown Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1522 From: Bradford, England Registered: May 2001 posted 10-17-2008 09:42 AM                     quote: John Wilson But how does analogue sound 'drop out'?
