better check if streaming HD via ethernet is smooth.. usually it's pretty choppy/jerky.. unless it's SD material like those DVDrip avi files..

QUOTE(podrunner @ Mar 14 2009, 11:10 PM) please help! Can some kind soul please point me to where I can solve the "no audio" problem on 720p and 1080p files? Can try mkv2vob and convert the dts to dd with m2ts or vob format. I tried downloading Popcorn Audio Converter but there's a trojan horse in there according to my AVG. I don't have a DTS receiver either! (How much are recivers now?) Anyway, I just want to watch my stuff on my LCD TV in my room, so the speakers from my TV is more than sufficient for my current needs. Please please help! |

your HDD is formated in FAT32, so max size is 4GB , either you split the files into 2 or you reformat the HDD to NTFS..

QUOTE(hdwarexpert @ Mar 18 2009, 01:01 AM) I'm more impressed to know where he store the backup files on HDD? I should have similar amount of titles >100) on physical ori BD discs but to transfer my entire collection to HDD as a movie server, say 100 titles would take up 30-40GB per title x 100.. that;s like 30-40TB of HDD space.. wah.. |

acterly, MKV is just a Video/audio file container, can store std def DVD rip or any video files or HD-DVD rips or even recorded HD TV channels. doesn't mean really BD rips only.. cheers.. |

QUOTE(laowai @ Mar 18 2009, 03:15 PM) Dun confuse people lah. if you are unsure about these things dun add confusion.. your statement shows you are ignorant yet still want to advise people.. What you see out there .... mkv = 720/1080 rips and avi = low resolution rips Added on March 18, 2009, 9:20 pm QUOTE(waeguk @ Mar 18 2009, 06:40 PM) Why make it so complicating? wished it was that simple. if it's so simplistic then your WDTV would be able to play all those MKV without problems.. no need to worry about high profile 4.1 or max bit rates audio codec, embedded Subtitles or MKV error checking etc. So instead of addressing hidef files with file extensions, whats the best way to say it then? Everyone start saying '720p/1080p' instead of avi/mkv/mp4/mpg watever lah. But then someone will start saying 720p/1080p can be small filesize because of compression ..... headache lah. hahahaha. by understanding what MKV is will enable you to know what kind of MKVs are playable on your media player and why some can't play.. or stutter or hang..

QUOTE(in_george @ Jul 3 2009, 05:08 PM) BD9/BD5 are physically DVD media, but with the content encoded using Blu-ray specification codecs. Thus they're not playable on normal DVD players, but could be duplicated using DVD duplicators and blank DVD-R/+R media or existing DVD pressing machines. nope. they are not the same. * Blu-ray disc player uses blue laser to read and write data while DVD player uses red laser. As blue laser has shorter wave length of 405 nm (when compared with red laser of 650 nm wavelength), a blu-ray disc player can record much more information (ten times more than DVD player). Blue laser can be focused on smaller pits precisely so data can be read and processed much faster. * The optical unit in blu-ray disc player uses improved optical features like powerful lens that can increase its aperture to 0.85 with ease. * Thirdly, the pit size on a blu-ray disc is less than half of the pit size on a DVD (0.15 microns Vs 0.4 microns). The track length is also minimized on a blu-ray disc (0.32 micros) when compared with DVD disc (0.74 microns). * Next, the polycarbonate layer over the bumps (which contain data) on the blu-ray disc is thinner (1.1 mm thickness) and this helps to remove optical aberrations and focus the laser more precisely on a smaller spot. |

QUOTE(in_george @ Jul 5 2009, 03:19 AM) Extracted from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blu-ray_Disc oh... using DVD9s but authored to BD compatibility.. for BD player playback.. thanks for pointing out..BD9/BD5 Blu-ray Disc BD9 and BD5 are lower capacity variants of the Blu-ray Disc that contain Blu-ray Disc compatible video and audio streams contained on a conventional DVD (650 nm wavelength / red laser) optical disc. Such discs offer the use of the same advanced compression technologies available to Blu-ray Discs (including H.264/MPEG-4 AVC, VC-1 and MPEG-2) while using lower cost legacy media. BD9 uses a standard 8152MB DVD9 dual-layer disc while BD5 uses a standard 4482MB DVD5 single-layer disc. BD9/BD5 discs can be authored using home computers for private showing using standard DVD±R recorders. AACS digital rights management is optional. The BD9/BD5 format was originally proposed by Warner Home Video, as a cost-effective alternative to regular Blu-ray Discs. It was adopted as part of the BD-ROM basic format, file system, and AV specifications. BD9/BD5 is similar to 3× DVD for HD DVDs. |
