    Uh-Oh... three WB (film) HR discs somewhat sloppily upconverted to 1080p!!!

    Well, arguably the sports channel of record, ESPN, is 720p.

    That sounds good. I do not feel confused between what is currently being encoded/ouput and what can be encoded/output but please correct me if I am wrong.

    So 1080p60 on HD DVD is possible and indeed has been seen. http://www.projectorcentral.com/reta...VD_Blu-ray.htm

    So is Wikipedia/HD DVD incorrect? Video systems (maximum) 1920x1080 50/60 Progressive HDTV - BD 1920x1080 50/60 Progressive HDTV - HD-DVD

    My mini review - Toshiba HD-XA2

    Nor will you since neither format supports deep color.

    Blu-Ray movies cracked?

    Kind of a moot point since we are seeing high quality digital copies of HD movies on the internet.

    Blu-Ray movies cracked?

    External scalers work very well on analog these days. Besides nothing can happen on ICT until 2012 and it probably will never happen.

    There is an interesting interview with muslix64 (the cracker) on slyck.com.

    Dolby-HD & DTS-HD: How to prepare for it??

    If it even makes it to discs is that much of a reason to wait for 1.3?

    Dolby-HD & DTS-HD: How to prepare for it??

    Even the HD-A1 had all the advanced formats.

    The Bits impressed w/Blu titles

    You guys are talking about some serious equipment here. The average guy may run his Silicon Optix' Reon-VX processed SD-DVD (even if it's an XA2) into his 42" LCD, think it looks pretty good, and settle for SD-DVD (and his iPod) and not fret the format wars. Then you have SACD, DVD-Audio, HD-DVD...

    The Bits impressed w/Blu titles

    I am not sure there will be anything but losers in the format war. People are reporting that the upscaling of SD DVDs in the new Toshiba HD-AX2 is so good they can not tell the difference from HD-DVDs even on large displays. Just get one of these players and be done with it. Remember the winner...

    But why would someone with 15k to spend on this not want 7.1?

    TITANIC DVD Cover art- request a change here!

    Is this really something to get worked up over? Mine will not even be seen on the shelf between others. I do not think I have ever said to a house guest - forget the HT demo check out the cover on this DVD box.

    With HD discs looming will this affect your DVD buying habbits?

    Wouldn't a HD-DVD movie have to be shot with a HD camera to be significantly better?

    Anyone Have a Pioneer Elite DV-09?

    I will try to locate some here in the Myrtle Beach, S.C. area. The DV-09 will play CD-RW but not CD-R, oddly, if that provides any clues.

    Anyone Have a Pioneer Elite DV-09?

    Is there a way I can get my hands on a test DVD-R and DVD-RW before I spend hundreds of dollars on a burner?

    Anyone Have a Pioneer Elite DV-09?

    That's odd. I have since talked to Pioneer's Elite support group and they told me it will not play either one.

    Sopranos and Directvideo.com

    A web site called Directvideo.com sells the Sopranos box sets at a good price. However they do not list much information about DVDs. Is anamorphic widescreen the only way the Sopranos comes?
