I'm interested in getting them, I just need to know if they'll work on a Playstation 2 (one of my friends only has a PS2 for DVD-watching...)

I dunno if they do or not. Don't have one/don't know anyone with a PS2 to test it. And, nobody that's received a set from me said they played them in one.

If someone that's gotten DVDs from me is reading this...and you have a PS2...can you test them out?

Are these in 4:3 or 16:9?

They are 4:3.

But, keep in mind when Fox broadcast it was in widescreen. So, there are black bars at the top and bottom.

The video is exactly what you saw when it was broadcast.

Hi there.

I think that this is so cool. I have a question though, about how you downloaded them. Just got a cable modem and dl'd WinMX, but so far my search strings have yielded no results. What search did you use to find them?

I could use some help. I really don't want to have to put Kazaa on my machine.

It may not be the best, but I had no problem finding them on imesh searching for video of "Firefly"

Becareful though, it installs a lot of spyware too

Regarding Playstation2 compatibility:

Several people who have purchased these discs report that the very first time you insert
one of the discs it plays fine. After that none of the discs will play, whether they've been in the unit before or not. The discs in question played just fine for those customers in set
top DVD players and/or computer DVD-ROM drives.

If a PS2 is your only method for watching the discs, I wouldn't suggest you buy a set from me.

Just wanted to let everyone know that I have made some sets of DVDs with full color labels, and either a standard CD jewel case with full color inserts or a standard DVD case (like store bought DVDs come in) with full color wraparound graphics. A big thank you to those that did the majority of the artwork!

Since the cost of printing all the full color stuff can add up quickly, I'm probably going to only make a few of these. Contact me if you're interested in a set: trs80@cornerpub.com

And, of course, I still have many of the plain sets still available (see info at the top of this thread).
