So I was just thinking....

I realise that now there's quite a lot of HIGH DEFINATION movies and series to download from the internet. each file ranges from 4Gb to 22gb.
So I was thinking that if I put this file into a external juke box drive and connect it to my High Def LCD to play.

How will the quality like? I know when I watch on My 22" LCD monitor, it look way much nicer... but if I use this juke box to stream it into my TV, will the quality in term of picture and sound be better then DVD's?

DVD's also can control normal audio to DTS...



Comments pls...

Thanks

If download, I chose Matroka file format.

.mkv instead of .avi

Sometimes got no choice to choose though ._.

DVD is not that bad actually.

Added on August 18, 2008, 6:40 pmYup true...

But what I was thinking is if you stream it through the 2.5' multimedia player or juke box to the LCD... will the quality degrade?

i think it depends on the dvd whether it is a copy from the cine or ori dvd from overseas.. in overseas the dvd release is faster....
some pirated dvd also have this HD class....

so you think yourself... some people have the satisfaction from buying the ori want regardless of the price... its your money and its our economy together....

I do agree with you all ... hahah who say we are discussing pirated?

I'm comparing original DVD and with the HD Movie that I purchase and download from the Net... smile.gif

Hahaha

FYI... I do support original... biggrin.gif just that it's too expensive in Malaysia... I bought the Original Transformers Special Ed DVD. Expensive... but worth to Collect... smile.gif

ya, seriously, Anime on HD (be it 720p or 1080i) which is on matroka file format is holy sh*t!

Watching on my 40" Bravia is worth it.

I connect it directly to my computer btw.

those in .avi has wierd color outage? *something like loses colour*?
