received my new n-vi on wednesday, so far so good, no problems with the optical input fed from my tv-drive, like there was with the first one and to some extent even after the software upgrade, just hoping they manage to sort out my dvd-audio problem which they know about, by the way it is only one dvd-a disc that it has problems with. would now highly reccomend buying an n-vi if you are looking for a one box solution.

Hi John thank god for that. at last a happy man and wife.kind regards munch

Which DVD-A disc?

david, its the tubular bells 2003, played this before on my arcam dv-89 and it was ok, but on the n-vi you get long pauses between the tracks which were not there on the arcam, have a few other dvd-audio discs which all work fine,

thnx

david, just to add to my previous post, i had another look at the disc today, it says there is a dts multi surround format on it as well, but i can't seem to access it, all that comes up on the disc menu is suround or stereo, whichever i select goes into mlp either surround or stereo, tried to select something differant on the n-vi but that just comes up the same.

Hi John where did you get the disc from? regards munch

hi munch, i think i bought it from play.com

Hi John if you got from play it will not be a copy its just one or two sites u can get copies sold as the real thing and they dont have all the info on the disc. Ihave only one disc my n/vi wont play and thats a cd tangerine dream that comes with the dvd live in america 1992dvd+ cd collectors edition .I did a copy for the car and that plays ok in the n/vi.regards munch

munch, just put the disc in my boys dvd player and because its not a dvd-audio player it comes up with the choice of dts or dd 5-1, not sure how to get this up on the n-vi, any ideas ?

just going to try something . will get back to you in a few mins .munch

just gone through my dvd audio discs not one has dts just 5.1 i have three m. oldfield dvds bells2-bells3 and millennium bell live in berlin. if i was you i would not bother with dvd audio discs .just get the dvds and turn your plasma off or record them onto cd.regards munch.

does the disc work ok in other multi channel capable players?

(This may be a mastering error).

av@naim, just tried in my boys computer the dd 5-1 surround format works fine, not even any pauses between the tracks, i know that the advanced resolution surround works without any pauses as it used to play on my arcam dv-89, i dont have anything i can try the dts soundtrack on, as my n-vi does not give me the option to try it,
