I'm still contemplating whether to get this PJ or upgrade to 40" Full HD LCD (currently using 32").
And, is there a place where I can audition this PJ? Thanks bros. |

Just join the club.
Thanks to bro htkaki, and also bro hackwire for the audition last week.  Currently using normal white wall; no screen yet. At the moment, projected at 70" diagonal screen.  Some screenies with default settings (no calibration): (Uncharted PS3 Game)  (Dark Knight Blu-Ray)   Can't wait to get a proper screen. |

Just wondering about something; normally you guyz left your PJ in 'Standby' mode, or completely off after viewing?
A few more screenies. Finally, got the time to do some tweaking today with the display settings.  Display mode : Cinema Contrast : 4 Brightness : -5 Degamma : Video BC : 1 TV : 0 Color temp : Medium RG : 3 GG : 0 BG : 4 RB : 0 GB : -1 BB : -1           This post has been edited by Ninja: Dec 29 2008, 11:08 PM |

As requested by htkaki, I'm posting my HD65 setup pics here.
Still using white wall, but I put black border to increase image contrast.  Took a few more snapshots last nite. Scenes from King Kong, Resident Evil, Transformers, Ice Age and Beowulf.         |

QUOTE(kerollowyat @ Jan 14 2009, 10:57 AM) I'm dumping my plan to get a Full HD TV. Aiming for a projector from now on. So mad at you Ninja In process cleaning up my room. Throwing out all the racks and cabinets. Make some space. Can I have a projector, and pay it monthly. My current budget only allow to buy a Yamaha 663. Even have to hold plan to buy a handycam. I dont know what I'm doing..... It's madness "You see, madness, as you know, is like gravity. All it takes is a little push" - Joker This is the first thing comes out my head when I saw Ninja setup. Madness!  QUOTE(rx330 @ Jan 14 2009, 11:06 AM) fuiyoh... ninja punya bravia My setup was inspired from yours.

QUOTE(aiman04 @ Jan 15 2009, 05:29 PM) Wow, Ninja really went all out for the screen. Very nice! Yeah, got neck strain after a while; I think need to lower down the bookshelf behind where I put the PJ.  But I'd make it as "Pioneer Kuro" than the "Sony Bravia". However, isn't the screen to high? I imagined myself sitting there driving, felt like I have to look up too much, which we don't do during normal driving. |

Watched Speed Racer just now with HD65. File streamed as M2TS format from PC to PS3 through media server.
Very nice mixture of colors. A few snapshots taken just now:         |

Yeah, only 720p.
But, when I took the above snapshots, I zoomed in. If you guyz, noticed, there's no black borders on top and bottom. Maybe that's why not sharp enough.I took a video also last nite, showing Speed Racer movie and KILLZONE 2 game clip projected from HD65.

QUOTE(gocitygo @ Jan 20 2009, 11:57 AM) Ninja, nice screenshot. How do you stream the video? Wire or wireless? Since my PC/router located at ground floor, thinking of buying homeplug to link up with PS3 @ upper floor. But the price for 200Mbps homeplug is not cheap, can buy a wireless N router. In dilemma now. I use wired connection to stream. Initially I used wireless,but got some jerking/freezing issues, so change to wired, no more problems. Video plays smoothly; can fast forward; scene search.QUOTE(ronnt88 @ Jan 20 2009, 11:58 AM) Ninja... can teach me how to get the Angelina Jolie background for GT5? Thanks.  You mean how do I get the wallpaper? |

QUOTE(ar188 @ Jan 21 2009, 05:50 PM) was wondering how long to convert a 720 mkv (say 4.3GB) to m2ts? and which program is most efficient? I used 'tsmuxer' program. Conversion normally takes less than 5 minutes for 8GB 720p.What the program do actually is extract the video and audio from MKV and mux it back into m2ts video container. No re-encoding required.
