DVD Menus
« on: April 21, 2005, 05:43:01 AM »
I have a question for the fellow DVDers out there.

The first couple DVD sets had a really classy menu format where the episodes and options ran along the bottom of the screen, under the picture of Collinwood. Personally I was blown away by the opening menu animations and the overall presentation. Around boxset 5 they switched the episode listings to a very Star Trek looking format, huge blocky text listed vertically along the screen.

Anyone know why they changed formats? Personally I really can't stand the huge blocky font, I think if they couldn't do the small font, they could have come up with something better. I also swear that the dates listed next to the episodes in boxset 6 say actually say 1868.

One last question, does anyone else have the problem of the episode track listing from the menu staying on screen into the episode? Usually if I press the skip button and then go back they disappear, but was wondering if it happened to anyone else.
