I was testing the XBMC full screen on the extended second display (HDTV) via MBA using thunderbolt cable. Im impressed my Onkyo 515 detects DD 5.1channel audio from Superman 1080p from dailyflix and output to 7.1ch to all my speakers.

I hope Marvericks can do the same via airplay.

Great! Quick question, XBMC still does not support 3D right?...

Yeah i think so, and OSX definitely not supporting DTS-HDMA & Dolby TrueHD but i dont think any repo in XBMC has that too, even in torrent.

So to get good lossless sound to worth the 1080p movies that we're watching, we still need take out some cash to buy bluray. (be it ori or RM8 one)

... You don't believe in Media Player??

I do but then when we get our movies from XBMC or Piratebay these sources will not carry the lossless DTS HDMA and Dolby True HD because the size are big. (more than 7GB of mkv/mp4 if you properly ripped and compressed from BluRay.)

Even the cheapest pirated bluray also carry at least 25GB with DTS-HDMA/Dolby TrueHD 5.1/7.1

My Asiabox already kaput (blinking blue light of death) and apple Tv so far only play 3.1 ch audio via airplay. There is a complicated guide on how to decode movies and play surround using ATV but im not interested to do all that hassle of converting existing media or ripping Bluray and all. Might as well just directly play it using PS3. (yes ps3 is my main bluray player and media player now-PS3server installed in old desktop for torrent )

maybe htpc is the best solution i think and yes im still going to cinema to watch latest movies, torrenting top 100 movies and buy pirated bluray. (plus watch full lenght unsensored asian movies in youtube too)

What can i say I love movies!

Already use media player(currently pioneer 450)for 2 years with no problem,i"m a bit particular about sq and aq..used to buy bluray disc ori or not almost everyday bcos like u i"m crazy about movie...any language will do.
But i"m not downloading myself bcos of the poor connection in my area,so particularly i get my movie from hdworld.biz,already done a lot of test..no different with the ori bluray disc..

Hdworld movie definitely carries DTS-HDMA cause the files are huge 39-45GB per movies

is this media playback or streaming?

if streaming, interested to know:

.. which player - android, ios...?
.. is audio really dtshdma 5.1?
.. paid or free app?
.. what broadband speed in use?
.. can explain what is "Upscaled to 4K to extended HDTV via thunderbolt cable"?

thanks, we r all very interested!

its a playback from macbook air to HDTV as extended display via thunderbolt cable. The extended display has been upscaled to 4K (click on the picture for original screenshot in 4K resolution)

Only with thunderbolt -hdmi cable i can get more than 5.1 multichannel sound (DTS/DD/DTSHDMA/DD TrueHD) to my 7.2 ch AVR, if airplay via appleTV only 3.1ch

it's common for movies from DailyFlix with 1080p DTS5.1 or DD5.1 but DDtrueHD or DTSHDMA only from the download coz the file is big (This Elysium is 10GB) The original seeder claimed it's 7.1 but XBMC detected only DTSHDMA 5.1, i doubt it is 7.1 too coz the file for bluray movie 7.1 DTSHDMA easily more than 25GB

Sorry bro ! Tech noob here. Can teach here how to "rectify" my XBMC problem ? You see, since a few days ago, there's this red logo "Speaker Audio" on my top right hand of my screen that "show"
Volume Off ! As such, no sound at all. Picture perfect, but no sound at all ! Had tried to "erase" and "change" the logo but no respond ! Anyone can help ? Thanks in advance

Despite of the trailer already shown most of it, there are 2 amazing scenes (when the school girl died in the car with the face stuck in the windscreen and when the mother did). There is also a surprise in the end of the movie

3.5/5 from me.

Hehe just got my new tv. Wanna test it out. Streaming from my Mac via HDMI

Any suggestions on where to download awesome bluray movies ? Got unifi so I don't mind downloading instead of buying since I don't have a bluray player

Ask all you pros a question , if I watch bluray on my Mac vs buy bluray use bluray player got difference ah ?

And do you guys have a fav video player to watch your bluray on the computer ? I use VLC only..

bdrip via torr3nt

the real bd better in term of sound, if you have AVR or Home theatre

VLC is good
