It's not always there, and not always working. But it's worth a try...

Too late! The stupid thing wasn't working anyways. It would play part of one scene and then stop. Sometimes it would start again. Sometimes not.

Thanks for the tip, though. I'm going to go look for that tiny tiny hole on the face of my new DVD player. You may have spared the life of one machine. Thanks for the 411! L.

PS: The T2 DVD is fine.
