Topic: choppy fmv?

Is anyone else getting choppy fmv at the beginning of Subspace Emissary?

It could be the dirty laser problem that many people have, only it's not as bad as it could be. You might need to send your system off to Nintendo for a cleaning, if it gets worse.

I had the problem too, but only for the very first couple cutscenes...Ever since Petey, everything has been a-okay...

Same thing that happened to me. It seems to be getting better though.

Bump...ish. I think the sturrering has to do with some background loading that happens as that FMV is playing. It happens every time I watch the video, when choosing a new game - it stutters when Peach and Zelda are first shown, and when Kirby first appears as well - but if you choose "replay" after it plays, it only stutters when Peach and Zelda are shown, and you can definitely hear the laser moving around, so it isn't just streaming a video, or so it seems. It could be a dirty laser issue I guess - sometimes my Wii doesn't notice that the game is in the system, but ejecting and reinstering almost always works. It's annoying, but it's not worth sending out my system, at least to me it isn't, especially since House of the Dead comes out today too.

I got the same thing on just the first scene with Peach and Zelda, though I haven't replayed it to see if it happens again; otherwise, I've had absolutely no problems.

Same here. Also, if you are having issues, it's not because your lazy is dirty, since even brand new Wii systems are showing the same problems. Nintendo isn't cleaning the lasers - they're replacing them, or the entire DVD-ROM unit, or possibly just resetting the potentiometer.

My fmv does not slice nor dice.
