Author Topic: Sound problem in "Malibu's Most Wanted"? David Stambaugh Film God Posts: 4021 From: Eugene, Oregon Registered: Jan 2002 posted 04-21-2003 01:25 PM                        I saw this yesterday, in SR-D. From the start of the feature through at least the first reel, it seemed like there was something very weird about the sound mix. Whenever there was loud music, it was coming from Center - Right Screen - Left Surround. At first I thought the left-screen channel was dead, but it was in fact working, and later in the movie the sound was fine. I finally came to the conclusion that the left-screen and left-surround channels were reversed at the start of the movie. Has anyone else noticed this? Could a problem like this even happen on a single reel but not on other reels?  |  IP: Logged Paul G.

Same thing, or was it OK?  |  IP: Logged David Stambaugh Film God Posts: 4021 From: Eugene, Oregon Registered: Jan 2002 posted 04-21-2003 01:32 PM                        Well, since I'm just a paying customer, I didn't get to see a 2nd showing. I suppose if someone wants to pay ME enough to see it again, that could be arranged though.  |  IP: Logged Mark J.

Guess I'm gettin' old.  |  IP: Logged
