Media Blasters DVDs

Media Blasters announced yesterday that they would be replacing the first Kenshin disk for people who have experienced

From the Media Blasters / AnimeWorks Webpage:

Hello, Here is the official word from Media Blasters on the Kenshin #1 DVD. So read and be informed.

On the first Kenshin disk, certain players were having sound problems of various degrees. After much effort, I have finally tracked down their causes and had them corrected. In fact, the reason the second Kenshin disk was delayed was that we decided to be absolutely sure that every trace of the audio problems had been eradicated. The problems with the crossed stereo on certain scenes had to do with the fact that the audio track was encoded in segments, so that certain parts could be crossed while others were not. The other problem was that the original master used to encode the video and audio from had the Japanese audio on tracks three and four. Even though they were then encoded on to tracks one and two of the DVD, some more temperamental players got confused, and had trouble deciding whether or not these two tracks were supposed to be front (Sean Molyneaux, Production Media Blasters

Now the word from the Pres is that we will be replacing the DVDs that have been sent into us but you have to be patient. We have been back logged due to the delay in the Kenshin #2 disc so we must get those out first and than we will reprint the corrected #1. So for those who have sent in their discs, we have them and will replace them but be patient. We apologize for this inconvenance and hope you continue to Media Blasters.
