FMF,don't panic I've got an extra copy just for such emergencies. Are you sure it's not your DVD player? If you need a copy,I have both the full screen & wide screen versions.Just let me know! BTW,how did everything work out for you with your ex,yesterday was it?

I know how you feel. One of my BDS DVD's started to freeze in a spot. Hopefully there was just a bit of dirt or a small scratch in that spot and not a bigger problem. They just don't make DVD's like they used to. God must be Alliance.:wink:

ITS OK! Its ok people. World ending disaster has been avoided. Luckily for some little ones and not so little ones running around this here house, there were no scratches to be found. A few wipes with an appropriate cloth, a lot of blowing in the player itself, and peace and non-prosperity once again reigns in FMF land.

Whew. That was a close one. They almost had to get a negotiator come talk me off the ledge - so to speak.

FMF! lol I'm glad total disaster was averted! But like someone else said, we've got spare copies... Fedex is overnight to most locations, It would have been okay. :)

Don't scare me like that.

I have had VHS tapes get eaten and it was like what is the meaning of life.

I'm into DVD's now and I don't want to imagine this could happen to them.

We sniff the air, we don't kiss the dirt.


*wipes brow*

Wheeew! That was close. I definately recommend getting a back-up copy for emergencies such as this.

FMF, every day is a negotiation, and sometimes it's done with dishcloths...:biggrin:

There's a type of cd that has mini-brushes on it that you can put in and run for a few minutes and it cleans the player. I use it on my pc because my pc is always so dusty, i bet it would work for dvd players too.

Phew! Thank god it's working again, however if it does stop at any time, don't think of it as a disaster, look at the positives! 1) You get to buy it again which, though a tiny contribution, puts the sequel that one step closer to being greenlit. 2) You get the excitement of waiting for the new discs to arrive, and then the fun of opening it all over again. 3) You're boosting the economy. 4) If you buy it in person, you can try and get the store clerk to buy himself a copy. 5) New disk smell.

Okay, I ran out of ideas toward the end there (about number 2) :biggrin:

All

Just wanted to let you know that I am preparing for future such emergencies.

I am going to buy that thingy that fixes scratched CD's (its like 24 bucks and is my present to me), I am going to look for the Brushy CD thingy (Thanks didn't know about those) and I have told the children that I really really need back up copies for Christmas.

I feel much better now that there is a plan. :evil:

Are you kidding? Reason number 5 was the best! lol Actually, on a more serious note, I'd have to say reason number 4 was. That could be fun! (hand DVD over to cashier) "So... have you seen this movie yet? NO?! Well, let me tell you what you're missing out on..."
