I have no idea how to access it! I know you're supposed to press "Audio" or "Language", and I have Audio... and I've been pressing it like a mad man... but all that happens is this weird thing comes over the screen that says something to the effect of "*** Dolby Digital 2CH" I so confused. I tried like... using the arrow button-y thang to switch over to like... a new "language" hoping that would work... and all that happened was it got all quiet for a few seconds, and then went back to normal... HELP! :homsar:

Try looking in the book that came with your DVD player. It should have some info on the remote.

You know we have a wiki, right?

Just look at the pages about the dvd, it tells you how to get it.

The page about the DVD is what I first looked at... and as I said, I've been pressing Audio... and all that happens is that message comes up... I don't get no commentary! When should I be pressing it? And is all that happens is you press "Audio" and boom! Commentary goes...? I know I'm doing it on e-mails that have the commentary 'cause I checked it on the wiki...

If memory serves, I think you can only listen to the commentaries if you're watching each email individually. If you hit Play All, you won't be able to switch to the commentary track. Also, a lot of the emails don't have commentaries, so you have to keep checking to see if the audio switched back to the regular track.

Maybe you're only pressing it once. On some machines, you press it once, it pops up, you press it again, it changes. And we don't mean the language button. It's essentially the same thing, but there is an audio/language option under setup, but we want you to press the Audio button on the remote.

On my DVD player, if the email has commentary, pressing the audio button brings up an icon that say 1/2. You have to press it again to change it to 2/2.

By the looks of the message you quoted, you're pressing the right button - it's the description of an audio track and you want to switch audio tracks to the commentary. You may need to press it once, twice or once followed by an arrow depending on the DVD player, though just once is the more common.

So the main question is which email are you watching when you press the button? Not all emails have a commentary, check their respective wiki pages for more details on which do and which don't. As mentioned before you cannot access the commentary using the "Play All" feature.

Au contraire! At least I can access the commentary using the Play All feature. I was just doing that about 5 minutes ago. By the way, the fourth disc has commentary for all the emails and some have 2 sets of commentary.

On disk 4, how do you access the easter eggs? I tried using the angle button, but that didnt seem to work.
