Uhm... read the post again, brad. It's "NANA".

I did and checking out IMDB finds 22 references to a film called Nana:

Well, it's the very first one on that list. A Japanese adaptation of a manga.

Thanks.

Hung forgot to mention only the HK DVD has English subs (this Thai DVD does not). I know he likes adding his own subs but most (me included) don't.

Despite the interlaced transfer I'd still opt for the HK DVD.

dvdtimes gave the HK disc 5/10 for PQ, but it should be otherwise a good disc.

That cap doesn't really do the Thai disc justice. I usually don't know what I'm talking about but this is probably the best looking dvd for a japanese movie I have seen. But, like Brad said, no subs. Besides, the disc is putting on a real fight. There's a distributor logo at the beginining of the film (maybe 12 seconds). That logo has no sound, and it's a part of the movie file. However, there is no audio at all for that part, not even silence, nothing exists on the audio track. I don't know how the disc is coded but basically (I think) the audio doesn't start playing until the film itself starts. That's not the problem. The problem comes when I rip appart the video, audio etc. add subs and then put everything back together. The audio starts 12 seconds too early (= during the logo sequence).

Now I need to find a way to fix this, but I'm sure I can do it somehow.

Lots of bad luck I've had with subbing lately. Samurai Wolf 2 disc didn't play on my computer. Luckily I managed to download a rip of the dvd
