Championship
Productions - DVD Compatibility Statement
The DVD is the
most exciting development to come along in the short life of instructional
videos. It allows you to find the exact segment you are looking for within
seconds, without the tedious fast-forwarding and rewinding required of
traditional videotapes. DVD also provides great image quality, still frames,
and slow motion.
Unlike
videotapes, DVDs do not wear out, that means you can reference your
instructional DVD countless times and it will still look as good as when it
was new. With proper handling and care, your DVDs will last a lifetime – and
then some!
At
Championship Productions, we want you to have the best experience possible
with our DVD products, so our DVDs are produced using only top quality disks
to ensure a high level of compatibility with your DVD player. Unfortunately,
some DVD players manufactured before 2001 may not be compatible with the
high-quality disks we use on our DVDs. In a rush to get their DVD players to
market, some manufacturers build their machines to work on most disks,
realizing that some features of a DVD may not work.
If you are
unable to play a DVD from Championship Productions there are three things
you can do:
-
If you
recently purchased your DVD player, we recommend returning it for another
model that will play "DVD-R" disks. A good feature to look for is
"progressive scan". The majority of DVD players on the market today, at
all price points, have this feature.
-
Buy a new
player. This may sound drastic, but a new progressive scan DVD player
costs as little as $38, and we have seen prices as low as $18 after
rebates. With all of our future instructional titles being released on
DVD, this is a great investment for you or your school!
-
Return your
DVD for a complete refund. If one of our disks does not work with your
player, we will give you a full refund, providing the disk is returned in
saleable condition and the packaging is re-usable. If your player is
experiencing difficulties with DVDs in general, we still offer a vast
library of excellent quality instructional videos available on nearly
every topic and subject in your sport!
Most video
rental and discount stores across the US and now the UK have discontinued
selling videotapes -- some have even stopped selling VCRs. To remain
competitive, Championship Productions is embracing this trend to meet the
growing demand for DVD. Beginning in 2005, we will release all of our new
titles on DVD only. This will provide our customers high quality video
images, a product that will not wear out, and a product that is quickly and
easily accessible for referencing.
As always, we
appreciate your patronage and look forward to serving you in the future!
