It has recently come to light that the 5.1 audio track on "Bad Timing", the last episode on
DVD Box Set 4.5 from Contender in the UK, is faulty.
Originally, the release dates of Box 4.4 and 4.5 were delayed when Contender discovered that the 5.1 DAT tape (with the audio tracks on) was faulty, while they waited for a replacement. Unfortunately, an oversight at their DVD facilities house meant that the faulty audio track was incorrectly encoded onto the master for the DVD.
Since this fault has came to light, Contender are remastering the disc and creating a new batch. They will be replacing faulty discs if requested. It is worth noting that this problem only seems to affect those listening in 5.1, and the sound is apparently fine when played as a normal stereo track.
To request a replacement, visit the
Contender / Kult-TV website and drop them an e-mail, explaining that the problem has come to your attention and you'd like a replacement, and they should reply asking for a mailing address.
Please note that due to licensing restrictions, Contender are only able to send replacement discs within the UK and Ireland.
