UY Digital Delights
Soon after the original pressing of the first Urusei Yatsura TV DVD box set was released to those who had preordered it, a production glitch was discovered in the second disc of the set, potentially causing compatibility issues with some players. The source of the production glitch was tracked down and a second pressing of disc 2 was attempted, but unfortunately, many of these repressed discs exhibited a similar "coffee mark" effect, leading to yet another pressing run.
Finally, on their third attempt, AnimEigo has squashed all the production glitches and pumped out a new set of error free UY discs. Shipping has now started on these corrected sets, containing the updated disc 2, as well as a corrected liner notes insert for disc 3, and replacements for those currently stuck with the original defective discs will be sent out Tuesday. The full post to AnimEigo's News mailing list, outlining the problems they've encountered in the production of this first UY TV DVD set, the replacement of the defective discs, and a set of troubleshooting suggestions for those still having problems with the corrected discs, can be viewed here.
