That's interesting that they're actually using the word Eclipse when reporting the error, as they didn't seem to do that with Keranu when MSR had issues.   But then again, the error reporting seems to be pretty hit/miss.

We could probably help straighten it out if you need.

Any help you can offer would be appreciated.

A sample Cue sheet that you used (that worked?

Any additional info that I can provide them to get what I sent them to work.. .

It's 2004 all over again!

thank you.

well for starts, can they give you actual error messages instead of "It broked"?

if it's failing because of overlaps, that shouldn't be much to sort out.

also, can you describe how you made the master?

Still awaiting that info from them.  Apparently the person I have been dealing with takes a late lunch.

Who's your duder. 

Man, we've never had problems with them aside from:

Insanity:  The discs had a surface scuff so they refused to even try it.  Had to reburn the discs and make sure no little knicks happened.
PP: Someone said the disc wouldn't play in a CD player so I said "duh. its not supposed to.  Proceed.", and then they went OH, ok!  and then went "hey yeah its fine."

I included a note with the discs but apparently that note was lost in the shuffle between handlers.

Dave was the original guy, but lately all contact has come from Shelly.  Or in context, lack of contact has not come from Shelly.

Dave was who I had the second time.

First time was Brian.

Hopefully we get some good info back.

Just received this cryptic response:

"Sending the physical masters straight to shop to cut metal. (no uploading)"

Um, okay, so we're back on?

Yep. They're cutting the metal master mold to press the discs. Hope everything is okay <crossed fingers>

Hopefully they didn't just decide to press on without verifying that it's OK, lol.

That would be lame when 300 busted discs show up.

Thanks for the links to the soundtracks on soundcloud, and the brief history lesson!  Hope all goes well with the new pressing.  I'll be ordering as soon as they are available. :D
