Gorram Netflix
« on: August 15, 2011, 05:45:49 PM »
They've bolloxed up their streaming recordings of SG-1 season 3.

It's in French.  Can't change it to Engrish.  Called and complained on Friday.  It's a known issue (how do you eff up your audio track to default to freaking frog-ese for jeebus' sake?), their engineers are working on it.

Whatever.

Ching-wah TSAO duh liou mahng.   =|

The blame probably lies with the TV studio.  I saw weird stuff happen all the time when I was processing music files from the record companies.  The owners of the content can feed data into the subscriber systems and they all just blindly accept it because doing quality control would be way too labor intensive.

Well, thank goodness it's not just me.  Episode 21, Shades of Gray?  That sure put my high school French lessons to the test.

Oh, and Facebook won't let my use Chinese characters in my relationship status on my profile.
Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

C'est la vie.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

Weird i watch all the season a couple of months ago and it was fine. I did notice they removed some episodes through out the season. Whats up with that?

I am working my way through SG1 right now, but haven't watched anything since the 7th. I guess I better check.

Hmm, it seems they pulled Season 3 for now.  Hopefully they can figure it out.
