I know the server for this site is in San Clemente, California, and the weather has been pretty bad in southern CA today. Very heavy rains. It's possible that the power went out for the sever. That, or James Page spilled his coffee on it.
Hhmm... i'll have to look into that. :-?
You might find one online - eBay or something?
Do they? I never knew that; I know they won't play multi-region blu-rays, wasn't sure about DVD's.
There's no shortage of them on ebay, but then it has to be a good make and from a reputable seller.
Yes, though I've never bought an electrical item like that off eBay and I guess the postage could be high. Good luck in your hunt anyhow, old chap.
In other news I wasn't aware that Blu-ray players played multi-region DVDs. Interesting tidbit there, @jake24. I have a Sony Blu-ray player and it hasn't let me down yet. Recommended!
@ggl007 - I don't know anything about UHD tv's, but if it's the image, might it require some sort of converter, or a UHD cable (if one exists / you weren't using one already)
Another DVD that I have, needed a hdmi cable and it worked! But this combo has no hdmi... :(
Maybe there's some sort of converter box available, like those scart/av cable adaptors?
This might be a UK site, but maybe there is something to point you in the right direction:

I don't know if they will play other region BR's, but you could pick up a PS3 and use that for BR.

I bought a new TV thinking it would make everything look nicer. The reality is quite the opposite - ordinary shows that were filmed before the advent of HD now look stretched and blurred. Only Blu rays take full advantage of the picture with the added detail.
It's even worse with classic video games. The first time I played Goldeneye N64 on my HD TV, oh my gosh it looked bad. I know some newer TV's won't even display the 240p resolution put out by the N64, so I guess I'm lucky to have one that does.
With another French election coming up this year, American papers are giving strict warnings against "Russian meddling". It s almost funny.
You couldn't write it. You really couldn't.
Typos in the media I'm guessing?
Ha ha, that's always a sign of quality when you read that one!
