    Thanks^^

    Edit:

    What the fuck, same as last time it lags/skips, it cant play properly.. and this only happens with the Eclipse releases for some reason, every other tv-show/anime i watch is 720p hd (and i watch alot of stuff) and they work flawlessly, except for Eclipse's releases... very strange :P

    Here's a link to another 720p version if anyone other than me has this weird playback issue, [TMD-ASU]_Fullmetal_Alchemist_Brotherhood_-_07_[H264-720p][52139D04]

    Either your encodes are way out of date or you have a crappy computer. I can't think of any other explanations for why you have issues, particularly with a group like Eclipse. Before I finally upgraded to a new computer, the only way I could watch 720p videos was to use CoreAVC for all h264 videos. Eclipse's releases were one of the very few things that played smoothly before I started using it.

    It's actually well worth the price. I still use it on the new one.

    I've never had playback issues with Eclipse's releases.

    Nice episode.

    One thing I just noticed for the first time... Ed has both human arms in the opening at his first shot.

    What, at like 0:35, right before you see his Mum? I'm positive that's his dad.

    Edit: unless you mean the kids.

    That was a good episode. Things are going really fast, but I do like the pace. You can feel a darker tone to this, though I would like to see more Hughes and Mustang.

    I've checked it out today and this episode was actually the first ep on the 5th DVD (US version)... so the pace is a lot higher.

    So far i prefer the humor but find the action inferior to the original version

    New watchers of FMA should definitely watch the first adaption first because this pacing fails hard

    I like it the way it is... I doubt the first is better because there is nothing wrong with the speed or pacing in general for someone who hasn't read the manga or something.

    Sure there is

    It's just you wouldn't know about it unless you read the manga or watched the anime

    Yeah I agree about the pacing. In the original FMA the pacing was amazing, but now on FMAB they revealed alot of stuff much quicker such as the ingredients for the Philosophers stone being humans. In FMA they didn't find out until episode 19 I believe.

    So far I like FMA much much more the FMAB.

    I had the same skipping problem with the video, too, on this one. I just tried opening it in a different player and it worked. I tried it on real player.

    Anyway, so far I believe the first adaptation was better. It had more of an epic feel to it, I guess. But this is expected. I would be very much surprised if a rushed job to get through the necessary episodes would be as good as the original that wasn't rushed.

    Care to share in case others also get this problem?

    @below: Probably a Realtek HD Audio hiccup. My brother had a different problem where suddenly plugging in his headphones didn't work anymore. He had to change his Input/Output audio device specifically to "Logitech Headset" instead of the default Realtek HD Audio Input/Output device, which is the default that should work.

    Anyway, edited to stop spamming the thread.

    /off-topic.

    And thanks .

    Apparently the error had something to do with the audio, im using Media Player Classic HomeCinema and this is how i fixed my problem.

    Under Options>Playback>Output and then then under "DirectShow Audio" abit down in the window i originally had "Speakers (Realtek High Definition Audio)" selected, but i changed that to "Default DirectSound Device" and now all the playback problems are solved...

    I'm still not clear on why this only affected the Eclipse releases and nothing else though... but atleast it works perfectly now and thats what i was going for so :P

    Let's just hope that when we reach the point where the story is new they're going to slow down, I'm pretty sure they will though.

    It's logical to make the pace high now since they've already made the story, IIRC it's the same studio after all... so basically it's all for FMA newcomers to not get confused too much.

    Of course, they do miss out anyway, but they can always watch the original series if they don't feel satisfied

    As someone who has read the manga, I can't complain about the pacing. The original anime really drew things out, and had plenty of filler even early in the series. The example is that this anime hasn't skipped anything yet in the manga and is just following its path with no filler (with one exception.)

    I'm not saying the original is inferior, I just think that this series hasn't gotten to what sets it and the original anime apart yet.

    Good action episode. My favourite part has to be when Al took off his helmet and the Butcher freaked out.

    Otherwise, that sword/shapeshifter fellow is being awfully nice to a guy who keeps foiling their plans...
