We have CFS Super Platters, and despite the negative remarks I have seen on other threads, we havent had too many serious problems, up until last night, my day off by the way. I was picking up my paycheck when the projectionist asked the other manager to go take a look at # 1(Envy). I went up there, and the film had taken up fine for the first 2 reels, but the rest of the movie was on top of those reels. It was in a cone shape until it hit the platter above it, and ran out of room, and started to tangle up and pile up on itself. This took about 3 1/2 hours to fix, and needless to say, the print will look like crap when it runs again today. Unfortunately, I had to cut it a couple times, to untangle the mess. What would cause this to happen? Do I need to adjust the timing? The movie did not stop running, and the projectionist happened to be on a break at the time.
