Renato - do you have any Austrian / Swiss online store links?

You can get the Dellamorte DVD from the following places:
www.absurd-online.dk

A danish site which is fast and 100% reliable. Only problem no paypal or creditcards yet.
http://www.sexgoremutants.f9.co.uk/frame1.html

No creditcards but accepts paypal - is also reliable.

An online store that doesn't accept credit cards or paypal... That is pretty funny.

Hmmm, sorry I don´t have a direct link, I only had the idea that the DVD should be available from Austria or Switzerland, tried to find some links and saw this...
http://www.dvd-inside.ch/links/links-handel.shtml

... although I don´t know if any of these shops has the "Dellamore" DVD, maybe this helps a bit anyway (?)

My Dutch Stendhal Syndrome turned up. Yes, it is anamorphic, but unfortunately, it's missing the encoding that tells the player that it is, so if you have a 4:3 TV without 16:9 mode (like I do), you have to watch it vertically stretched. God damn it. Unless there is just a problem with the driver on my player. I might test it on another one.

Damn, it must be player specific - I tried it on PowerDVD and I could get it to show letterboxed. Doesn't work on my DXR2...

Hmm, definitely a problem disc. PowerDVD can barely play it (I have to bring up the audio menu, start playing the doco, and then skip to the feature title).

But, on the aspect ration side, it is anamorphic 1.66:1, which is the theatrical ratio. Their is a black bar at the sides (which you could see if you have zero overscan, but it is outside of the safe regions).

Update: Hmm, this is even getting more confusing - the 3.5 series of Creative players have a bug with anamorphic PAL discs, something to do with the crop settings, so someone on the web had a patch for registry settings of 3.0 players that you could apply - that did the trick. But now there is no black area on the side, so I am not real sure what the aspect ratio is, or what is just the players. But I'm giving up now while I'm at least ahead... I'll post an update when I get to watch it...
