where? can PM me?

I'm sure you don't need a blu-ray player to watch this, just a cap ayam 100 bucks DVD player will do.

Most likely just standard DVD, ripped from a blu-ray. So it will still be standard definition 480p video (4-5 MBps bitrate), only it will be slightly brighter, sharper, and richer in colours.

So quality will be slightly better then normal DVDs. But the details and vividness from the real blu-day (20-40MBps) will be lost. And no way you can put the 4-20 MBps lossless audio on the DVD.

I walk past this jack sparrow shop, then I saw a cardboard sign "Blu-Ray" sticking out from the piles of discs
and I was HUH?
since when we are so high tech and be able to have jack sparrow version of blu-ray movies?

upon closer inspection and checking the price, it's too cheap to be actual blu-ray disc
it's just ordinary dvds, ripped from blu-ray

pasty skin in HD. i will wait for the DREAMERS in HD, now that is something that i will buy!! WAHAHA...hahaha. hahaha

LOL, i remember those times. But yea, the quality is definitely not Blu-Ray quality, that's why I just said better than DVD Not many of us can maintain Blu-Ray anyway.

I have tested out jack sparrow bluray. And yes it is indeed sharper than my normal DVD. But in terms of audio im still trying hard to differentiate if its clearer. Anyone tested so far?

I compared Transformers with my original R1 version. Very hard to see difference. But bluray seems brighter. I noticed got some video anamolies eg. jaggies on bluray version also.

how much oh is one jack sparrow blu-ray??

got meh? so gheng??

where u seen it?

As mention by other forumer its just normal dvd ripped from Bluray.

PRice is same as any other high quality jack sparrow (not talking about D5 crap).

As for locations, your friendly neighbourhood shop should have

How about Sg wang or lowyat or times square?

the previous golden triangle (SgW,BTS and LYP) for jack sparrow is no more since long time ago...

man... you just crawl out from a cave? when was the last time you were there?

The Jack Sparrow BD ripped is Made-In-China DVD - the quality is slightly better but no better than normal R1/R3 ori DVD (same as 480i quality). No crappy DTS or fake track BUT no features either. If you willing to pay for Jack Sparrow, might was well pay a bit more for true R1 ori (thru Amazon) since most ori are coming down in prices due to lower US dollars exchange rate.

True BD movie on real BD player yields 1080p video quality with TrueHD sound. Go check it out at your local BD store and you can see the real difference over your DVDs collection.

Hehehe.... golden triangle is still active. The triangle is hidden ... bermuda triangle ! behind closed doors!

yalor... no more golden triangle, now has become bermuda triangle

I tested a few movies downloaded from Bluerayrip and convert/burn to DVD....result worth the download...movie are clearer, brighter and sharper..better than a ori DVD version.

But the original .mkv files of course better than a converted to DVD.
One thing I experiment due to the memory capacity of a DVD, to have the best pictures, one must forgo the Dolby sound, but if one must life with Dolby, the picture will be slightly inferior...but still, better than an original DVD.
And also, different software used will also yield different result. Some ppl. even use 2 software to do the conversion and the burning.

So far only can download blurayrips floating of the net...n stream it to my LCD tv wif hdmi...and the quality is already superb..
can't imagine the quality of the real 1080p source....
would love to really get my hands on the bluray disc...but the size is damn enormous...not to mention the price still damn expensive here and i dun even have the BD player/ps3

Guys, buy from Amazon la, can get BD movies for less than RM100.

We already have a dedicated thread for blu-ray, now already Version 3.

http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/647297

A lot of info about BDs can be found there. See ya there!

For d/l big files >3 gb, I rather just spend rm15 for 'imported' sparrow dvd unless the movie is crap or unknown/untested.

For 20 bucks can d/l 150Gigs of movies for one month
Thats why me never visit Jack Sparrow nowadays...cos' I become Jack Sparrow myself!...kekeke
