Just received email from Amazon.de that my copy of Saving Private Ryan Blu-ray SteelBook™ is being shipped 1 month ahead of schedule, lets hope that my copy of Sherlock Holmes Blu-ray SteelBook™ ships early too.

I estimate Saving Private Ryan BD to have a sync delay of about 50+ ms. starting from chapter 15 (audio sync is good on chapters 1 to 14).

Most people won't notice it, since audio sync errors start to become noticeable to most people at around 200 ms.

Unfortunately for me, audio sync delays start to become noticeable to me at around 25 ms.

Regret to hear that.  :-\ Does the lip sync issue starts from chapter 15 until the end or just a few portions lang?  :-[

yes, I got the same message last week.  I just hope the German version of Saving Private Ryan does not have audio sync delay like that of the US and UK.  But if it does, I hope I don't notice it.   :D  :D

Yes, there's an audio delay from chapter 15 until the end.  

But the good news is that the delay is probably small enough to be unnoticeable to most people.  

Another positive note is that the only portions where the delay is obvious to me are:

(a) The start of chapter 15 (from the coffee machine's closing lid to Upham translating the Edith Piaf song); and
(b) The ending (at the cemetery).  

In between those parts, the delay is not so noticeable to me.  

Try googling saving private ryan sync and you'll get hits from avsforum (US), avforums (UK), and blu-ray.com.

Paramount are preparing a replacement program. If so I will be handing over the discs only and not the Steelbook™. At least Paramount are fully aware of the problem and are prepared to remedy it.

I don't think you'll even have to send the defective disc back. You just call to the 1-800 number that they provide for the disc replacment program then give your name, address and the UPC. They will then just mail the new disc to you in a disc sleeve or jacket.

After hearing so many positive things about the Chinese IronPack, I'm thinking of ordering one myself.  Did you order from AMZ China?  I'm a bit hesitant of ordering from there as I have heard quite a few negative feedbacks.

A friend ordered it for me from Amazon.cn. Only 1200 php including shipping.

Good news is that Saving Private Ryan has been delayed by a week to allow for replacement of faulty disc.

Is that a preorder price?  Because now it is ¥ 212.00 ~ P1400 excluding shipping.   :(

Yeah that's good news about SPR, although my ship date has not changed.  It still says May 14 but it hasn't even entered the 'preparation' phase yet.   So I suppose it will ship on or before May 21.  I actually haven't seen this movie yet, this will be my first time to watch it.  Can't wait!  :)

Yes it was a pre order price.
Mine has been put back a week, give them a chance to change the disc over.
