my crystal ball is a cheap model......then again, i am no pakar.

the 2nd disc is a DVD...pop that into your dvd player...assuming your dvd player is a region free player.

your msian bought unit (presumed) is a Region A bd player, Region 3 dvd player. US unit is a region A bd player and Region 1 dvd player. Note the difference?

have to say, i dont have the hellboy II....but on region coding info it list the 2nd disc as a dvd.
also on highdefdigest

Technical Specs

* Blu-ray
* 2-Disc Set (Blu-ray/DVD)
* BD-50 Dual-Layer Disc (Disc 1)
* DVD-9 Dual-Layer Disc (Disc 2)
* Bonus View (Profile 1.1)
* BD-Live (Profile 2.0)

these are referring to the US release.

this is not the only title which has a dvd as a feature disc....my la vie en rose UK release has its special features on a dvd (2nd disc) too.

i still cant accept that i dont have holiday to begin with!

the problem with getting paid in euro...is i am spending them in euro.....

christmas holiday is 2 days.....new year 1 day....easter is 1 day (+1 day on good friday). summer still have to work...unless of course you want to join the rest in the exodus to the sunny beaches in the mediterranean.

working hours is as you said...that is only a guideline which most have to exceed anyway.

not that much holidays for BD actually ( added to keep this relevant to BD... )

not exactly cheap if i buy them in local stores....in the range of 25 to 32euro....32 are those new release...

hence i still get them from amazon

actually The Chronicles Of Narnia - The Lion, The Witch And The Wardrobe [Blu-ray] [2005] UK is not listed as region locked or not...its the Prince Caspian which is locked

i have many original dvds...hehe

i'd still support original BD even if the pirated one become cheap

well...you asked if one has many ori dvds....i was answering to that question.

then again depends on how you define as many.

as for those media players...they're streaming all sort of media files...still pictures, audio and visual files....even txt files.

110" to 120" ? aiyah...i'm short of that....

i got my baraka yesterday....watched 5 minutes of the thing on my TV...and then sat through the whole thing with the pj........rarely sit through a whole documentary one shot....and this one didnt even have any narration....the scenes are spectacularrrr..

my max viewing position from the 106" is approx 4m...

i also sit approx 3m away.....if i need to focus my vision on the edge of the image...i'd need to move my head. the 4m distance is better to see the whole screen. i think the 7ft viewing distance is not that ideal.

then again....i cant fit anything larger than 106".

120" would need a very bright pj

i dont use the highest brightness....the fan starts to kick in full mode.

that's why i said the 7-8ft viewing distance from a 106" probably not that ideal.

9ft=2.7m that's nearer than the 3m i mentioned where the edges are a bit outside the viewing cone.

jesse jane in HD...muahahahaha

amazon's edition is heavily edited. note the running time.....the full pirates 2 is more than 2 hours.

wish Jacky Cheung included 李香蘭 in the BD.....and he should have used 二胡erhu instead of violin in 吻别.
