A cheap HD solution for the masses
Woo, been a while since I wrote any solid content for the blog. To be honest I’ve been incredibly busy with settling into my new position at work amonst other things. Spoilt by some of the HD quality film trailers/game trailers on the Xbox Marketplace, DVD’s have started to look poor by comparison. I just cannot watch a DVD anymore without spotting how bad its video quality is in comparison. I have been holding off purchasing the Xbox 360 HD-DVD player for quite some time now but have finally purchased the thing.
Not a lot of people know that it can be easily used in Windows, so I decided to write up a quick article on how it could be done. PR has recently reviewed his HD-DVD drive on his blog and likes it too!
Good article, but what I don’t get is if they aren’t flagged with the ICT, why does it constrain it anyway?!
PS. I blame you for Jericho being axed!
It could be PowerDVD misbehaving. I was confused too about why it wouldn’t playback films over a DVI connection. WinDVD also has HD playback so I wonder how that treats non ICT content over DVI.
lol @ Jericho
I find the picture quality of normal DVD’s perfectly fine, you’re just too fussy and a technogeek if you can notice a poor dvd picture! I bet its all those screens you have i your room
Sounds like a load of fuss to watch a film. I dunno, think DVD is more than fine now. I see you have picked up Earth Defense force 2017
Have a quick go of some levels on inferno, those ants suddenly become all aggressive and intellegant 
I thought all this HD lark was overrated until I saw it running on my pesky 20″ TFT. Now i’ve got a 32″ Sammy on the way to enjoy it further
Grrr, don’t mention EDF! I’m struggling as it is on Normal mode lol
