Vol. 2 of Black Sheep Squadron available in France
I ordered the Set 3 days ago and received it today. You can get Vol. 2 of the BSS at http://www.amazon.fr or at http://www.ebay.fr
Enter either "Les tetes brulees" or "Les têtes brulées" in the search field. That's the name of the show in France.
I just finished watching the first disc. So far I can say the following about the set.
The Volume 2 Series comes on 4 DVDs. Unlike Vol. 1, Universal decided to use one-sided double-layer discs. On each disc are 3 episodes, totalling 11 Episodes (Episode 15&16 Deadliest Enemy of them all is a 2-hour special).
The DVDs are Region 2 encoded. The picture is PAL.
The DVDs have French and English mono 2.0 audio tracks.
2 French subtitles are availabe, but no english subtitles.
The DVD-Menu is in French, but that's no problem, you can easily navigate it, just takes 10 sec. to get used to it.
You can either select each episode individually or play all.
When the episodes start, it begins with the preview of the show just like it did in Vol. 1.
One thing I noticed though, when they first blend in the opening title, "...became the terrors of the South Pacific..." it is in French. The Episode title is blended in in English but also in French at the bottom. The credits remain in english. Also during the shows, when a reference is made to Vella la Cava etc. the French used a black block with french language and blended over the original description. This is only for 2 sec. though. The subtitles or translations for when the Japanese speak are also blended in in French.
The picture quality is good, could use some improvement though. Here I think the NTSC version of Vol. 1 was a bit better. The colors slightly seem to fluctuate. This might be because the movie was transferred from NTSC to PAL, don't really know though. It has nothing to do with my tv, because it supports both pal and ntsc. They also didn't remove the small dust blemishes, which keep showing up. But hey, it's better than nothing.
The shows on Discs are longer than the History Channel versions. If they're totally uncut remains to be unknown.
I hope I was able to give a somewhat detailed description of the French Vol. 2 Set of the Black Sheep Squadron.
