General Land Before Time / Aspect Ratio of DTV movies
« on: March 21, 2016, 01:00:47 AM »
When exactly did the Land Before Time DTVs switch to widescreen aspect ratio (1.78:1)?

The 12th (The Great Day of the Flyers) and 13th (The Wisdom of Friends) movies were released in widescreen in Australia and Europe. Are there any signs of earlier movies been produced for widescreen?

I thought the switch to widescreen might have happened when the break occurred between movie 10 (The Great Longneck Migration) and movie 11 (Invasion of the Tinysauruses). But I can find no sign of the 'Invasion of the Tinysauruses' been released in widescreen on DVD anywhere worldwide. The movies (and series) were frequently cropped to full screen for DVD releases in the USA, but other countries usually got the widescreen version.

I thought it would be useful to have a thread for the DVD releases of Journey of the Brave (LBT 14) worldwide, so people know when the movie will be coming out in their country:

USA: Initially exclusive to Walmart, followed by retail release on 10th May 2016

Land Before Time TV Series (2007) / DVD releases
« on: March 10, 2016, 08:41:23 PM »
I'm looking for the perfect DVD release of the Land Before Time series on DVD, but I'm wondering if it actually exists. I currently own the DVD releases from Germany which have the complete series in the correct order, and offer English audio. But one episode (9 - Escape from the Mysterious Beyond) uses hard coded subtitles, which are only in German. Were there any other episodes using hard coded subtitles for the Sharptooth characters?

Researching online, the only DVD releases that seem to exists are:

Themed sets:
6 themed DVD releases in USA (Cropped)
6 themed DVD releases in Australia, France, Spain & UK

Complete series releases:
Complete series released over 13 volumes in Germany, offering English & German audio. Followed by DVD repacks of 6 episodes (18 episodes only), and a complete series repackage been released soon.
Complete series released over 6 volumes in Sweden, in Swedish only. Followed by boxed set containing all six DVD volumes.

Have I missed any other DVD releases?

On a side note, was the series produced in High Definition?
