Okay, someone tell me why the blue hell it keeps skipping at ep 16, "Another Chance". (And I haven't had the DVD player for hours on end; if it matters, I'm using my PS2.)

(And I DID use the search feature, but am now too lazy to dig through a couple thousand threads.)

I watched that volume last night and I remember an episode skipping during the intro and the first minute or so, but then played fine. I thought my cpu was just multi-tasking so it skipped. But I guess I was wrong.

Was it at the beginning of the episode or through out the whole thing?

So far, it was just through the beginning of the ep.

I once tried playing just that one ep one day and it played fine. Maybe it's a defective DVD or something.

The first time I tried the DVD, the main menu had trouble as well. Only the audio played and I couldn't see anything, then I clicked the screen and I guess I clicked the extras menu but still it was all sound and no video. I restarted my cpu and the 2nd time it worked fine.

I wonder if that stuff just happened to us two though since no one else is posting.

What version of the GITS are you playing? DTS? I never had any issues with those disc, haven't really had a chance to look at the other disc...otherwise I would try using a different dvd player. PS2 have a bad record (I've had 2 different one's) of having less the great quality dvd players....in fact I don't even like using PS2 for playing disc.
Till next time,

Delta Kiral

P.S. I will try playing both disc tomorrow in my PS2 after I get home from work, see if I have any similar difficulties that you had.

1. Yes, DTS.
2. My PS2's always played DVDs fine, no problemme. But GITS vol. 4 keeps skipping at ep 16 for some odd reason, unless I play it just at that ep.

Did you examine the disc for scratches? If you don't like it doing that just take it back and say it's defective, exchanging it for another one.

It was a new disc, and has no scratches.
