Can you compare with the screens you took from the trailer? I wanna check out Raditz's scouter and Piccolo's ear.

The only time I think I'd ever say such a thing...

You do realise that the Faulconer music only starts in episode 68, which is way later than what this set covers?
yea i do but do you konw they went back and produced new tracks ? regradless , the question was if you can play the new english dub aka orange box dub with the the US broadcast music insted of just the JPN track.

also do we have something like marathon play ?

I took that super noisy Gohan pic and blurred it down a little here: http://i345.photobucket.com/albums/p385 ... hanblu.png

Any comments?

(Sorry, it was resized, Photobucket's a bitch.)

Pleas...no.

You already could in the orange bricks, why would these be any different?

I just wanted to try something out, although it does look a little too blurred.

I changed all those images to links, because 1920 is really wide (especially for people who might be using mobile devices), 8 MB is a really huge filesize (not everyone has ultra super fast connections), and BMP isn't really a good web format (is it still Windows only?).

Please use the URL tag instead of the IMG tag for further screenshots.

People are already posting caps which is fine.

I won't comment on if they are properly color tuned or not because my set hasn't come yet and I don't know.

Feel free to let me know what you want for when I get mine. I'll make sure they are properly color tuned. And with lossless compression.

Yeah, the set looks good in my opinion, although it has a lot of grain. You can tell this especially in that Gohan shot that I blurred. The DBox is one thing, but this has a ton.

Yeah, I wanna see them too. Especially the exact frames, because I noticed some details appear different towards the bottom of the frames on a couple of them, and I want to know if it's artifacts from the trailer, or something on the sets themselves.

Notably here:

Dragon Box:

Blu-Ray Trailer:

I'm hoping it's just a vsync issue, and the frames on the trailer were just pulling visual information from the next frame towards the bottom.

no you could not let me go bullet point for bullet point

in the orange boxs you had the choice of ether

1. the US dub +falconer tracks
2.you had the new uncut dub aka not the US dub but a new US dub with JPN tracks
3.you had the JPN voice track + JPN music track

now my question is in this set can you mix the music from bullet point "1" with bullet point "2" ?
