Baby of Macon on DVD-R from Amazon.com


Hello,

Has anyone ordered the Baby of Macon DVD-R from Amazon.com? Here's a link:

http://www.amazon.com/Baby-Macon-Julia-Ormond/dp/B004YMAUKK/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1313883317&sr=8-1

This is similar to what studios were doing with their less in demand catalogue -- you order and a DVD-R is made on the spot with your order.

I was just curious if anyone else here has ordered this DVD-R. There seems to be one review on Amazon for it, here's a link to the reviewer:

He notes that the DVD authoring incorrectly formats the video in a squeezed 1.85 ratio when it should be around 2.35. Of course, he notes you can fix that depending on your dvd player, but I agree with him -- why should you have to? They should have got it right.

So, I'm curious if that's an isolated problem with the disc or if every DVD-R is pressed like that of this title.. perhaps I'll take the bite and order.

I wonder the same thing. I intend to buy this DVD edition and would like to know if the aspect ratio is correct.

Do you have bought this DVD ? If yes, how was it ?

Thanks.
