Warner Bros HD DVD Problems

This is just a quick post just informing everyone who owns HD DVD's that it is rather common for Warner Bros discs to not work or start freezing. Out of 50 Warner Bros discs around 7 have started to have this problem. A way of testing this issue is to test the disc by trying every chapter on the disc, if the process freezes or distortion in the picture then you can identify that there is a problem. It could be as simple as a scratch which, in some cases, could be fixed but some discs that are healthier than others on the surface may have more significant damage. For example Training Day did not work when i attempted to watch the film but after some light cleaning it works fine. The Matrix on the other hand was working perfectly up until 1 hour and 37 minutes and refuses to work properly at the time of this post.

So my goal is to attempt to deep clean the discs I have in order to get them working again but I thought it would be a good idea to use my platform to warn owners of HD DVD of this problem and it is mainly Warner Bros discs that I have found this problem. From online reading it appears that the biggest problem with Warner Bros HD DVD's is disc rot, this is what I fear is happening so I implore all HD DVD owners to test their Warner discs to see if they suffer from this problem and start to look to upgrading them to blu ray.
