DVD / BluRay dual format discs

[bibblebub]

Has anyone had any problems with these?

These a new release that I want to buy which is very unlikely to be in the shops (because it's an obscure film) and so will have to order it online. I haven't bought one of these dual format discs before and would just like some confirmation that there is no problem playing them in any DVD players.

Is that correct that they are DVD on one side and BluRay on the other,? If that is the case then I can't see why there would be a problem but would just like to be sure.

Yep you have it, different formats on different sides (they've been doing a similar thing but with slightly different versions of a standard DVD film on each side for ages now)

It should play the DVD side fine in any standard DVD player, just make sure you don't get an old DVD/HD-DVD flipper disk that were about a few years ago as you'll never find anything to play the HD-DVD side of it!

Thanks for the confirmation. It is a brand spanking new release and definitely DVD / BluRay.

if it is a dvd, it can play at any player. but it belongs to bluray , a normal dvd player will not play it,
