anonlinux asked:

I know that most blu-ray players will upscale a standard definition dvd to fit and view well on a high definition TV but how is this done? I’ve viewed several standard definition dvd’s on my PS3 and while I know they’re not being displayed in true hd and just upscaled they still look very very good.

Blu ray players and viewing distance?

Yoda asked:

I’ve read alot about proper viewing distances for viewing blu ray movies and HDTV. My viewing distance is way outside of the range. I have a 65″ RP CRT which is 1080i, and my viewing distance is about 16 feet away. Is buying a blu ray a player a waste of my money or should I invest in a good upconvert dvd player instead.

Difference between blu ray and dvd players?

Thu, 09 Jul 2009 08:15:36 +0000

Amy-zing Butterfly asked:

What is the difference? Eventually it will be all blu ray but can you play dvds in a blu ray player or only the blu ray movies? I though I had seen somewhere that had it for both or maybe it was a duel thing but no idea. I’m sure I am wrong.

From what I see blu rays are expensive and I don’t want to buy one if all the dvds I have will be useless.

cassiecollins50 asked:

Now that Blu-Ray won the Format War, how long till Apple decides to equip all Macs with Blu-Ray players. I hope it won’t too long.

I need a new Mac, for editing and SHlT, and don’t want to spend $3,000 on a 8-core processor W/DVD Drive , only too have Steve Jobs announce a 8-core processor W/Blu-Ray drive the next day.
