Rush "Moving Pictures" DVD-A won't play. Help?

[BungalowJim]

Just purchased Rush "Moving Pictures" CD + DVDA. I have a Pioneer DV 610-AV which plays all manner of DVDAs and SACDs without problem. The "Moving Pictures" DVDA freezes up after selecting "Surround Sound" or "Stereo" on the menu. No sound playback whatsoever. It can play the "Videos" and "Pictures" part just fine. Any advice?

Does the DVDA have the Blu-ray logo on it?

The Pioneer DV 610A is a DVD A/SACD player - it will not even begin to play a Blu Ray disc. This is a European model that is "zone free." There was another member here that had the same problem https://www.quadraphonicquad.com/forums/showthread.php?14355-Rush-MOVING-PICTURES-DVD-A/page3&p=126365#post126365 you should probably check for any firmware updates.

I am having the EXACT same problem with my PIONEER ELITE DV-48AV. It works fine on all DVD-A's as wells any SACD's that I purchased over the art 10 years. When i load the RUSH "Moving Pictures" [DVD-A] and any DVD-A's from the RED SECTOR set, everything freezes after selecting the surround sound option. Can anybody help out with a suggestion or at least an explanation?

I ended up ripping the DVDA using DVDA Explorer, then reauthoring a new DVDA using Cirlinca Audio Solo Ultra. Same for the "Hemispheres" DVDA.

I am having the EXACT same problem with my PIONEER ELITE DV-48AV.

My Pioneer Elite DV-79AVi plays it ok.

I have that same DVD/CD and it plays on all my DVD players no worries. Perhaps you have a dud pressing. I had a DVD of The Who that continued to freeze no matter what player I used, changed it over and it played perfectly.

Here I am from the future and I am having the same problem. I think the player thinks it isn't authentic. It just shows a freeze frame still instead playing.
I have the Pioneer DVD 610 also.
