how can 720p or 1080p mkv rez only 640x480?

MKV can be in any rez.. doesn;t mean must be HD 720p or 1080p.. so unless you give more specifics, can't really say which is better..

Ok la...given the same movie at 720p or 1080p which one is better in term of PQ n SQ. Is it MKV or is it RMVB

I havent tried a MKV 1.5GB 720p vs RMVB 1.5GB 720p before..

cos pitting a standard 4.3GB MKV vs a 1.5GB RMVB aint exactly fair comparison..

Talk about mkv files, is there any SQ difference comparing between 720p and 1080p? To add details, I am taking consideration in DTS format.

720p and 1080p refers to picture format/resolution/quality.

I cant imagine why would a 1080p have better DTS sounds compared to 720p unless it has a higher audio bitrate

To me, If I just want to watch and delete such as TV series or B grade movies, RMVB is my choice due to its smaller size and faster to complete downloading. If those movie worth keeping and wanna enjoy the sound quality, I will go for mkv...

My 2 cents...

hehe! true audio is audio/video is video,.. but I wonder if DTS can adjust and reencode the bit rate wan ar? not sure..

available locally yet?

Looks like cinema tubegot promise. Anybody seen this locally?

1 USD = 3.4914982 Malaysian ringgits, so that would be about RM349. By the time arrive to Bolehland I wonder how much would it be? Would this price be within TS's budget?

For that price there will be better and cheaper media player especially ones with Realtek 1073DD chipset coming out from China in the following months. Some thing like this to play most movie files? >> http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=28512034?

yeah wait for the china equivalent using same chipsets would be a good option.

but just worried these china firmware stable or not? after can only playe 40% of the HD files available then sien..

I concur as after getting the RCA L8H and ChangLing 668, I regreted that I didn't go for the famous player with firmware upgrade support

Nothing is 100%. Reality check, just look at WDTV thread. WDTV can't play DTS also, you need to buy WDTV LIVE.
All electronic equipment, nowadays is 'used and throw' so don't expect much for long term customer support from manufacturers. Consumers need to be more aware of the pitfalls by being more knowledgeable and keep each other info of current happenings

It is somewhat true.... May be the manufacturers want us to spend on the new model and purposely delay the support upgrade pack etc

Mstar 6M68 fault
(but Mstar already release 2nd gen chipset)


Temporary , the best 1080p solution is REATEK 1073.

but TELECHIP TCC8900 , PoweLayer PLM3000 chipset coming soon. (search google)

Does it mean I should hold my purchase for Realtek 1073?

AC Ryan using which chipset?

sure nothing is 100%, but 80-85% compatibility is still better than 60% rite?
at least even my basic my Egreat outperforms wd, with wider compatibility of MKV especially 1080 + get DTS downmix compared to the the WDTV at slightly 100 bucks more.. so it pays to do some research before buying.. unless you fond of buying similar items twice just to upgrade their functions..

Egreat may not be so great, correct me if I'm wrong, it does not support RMVB.

New batch use Realtek 1073DD.
