    I forgot, my bad. It's not silly when I enjoy them. And it isn't the same as going to a store.

    Oh God Marv, are we going to get into this again? HD-DVD might be cheaper, but it is better. The PQ is better, the sound is better, the special features are better and the discs themselves are stronger. I know this stuff because I own both formats and I have seen/heard it. Go out and check both formats. Having a BR and HDDVD player really helps my knowledge because it gives me a hands on experience. You talk about how your BR/HDDVD stuff, but you can only learn so much from reading.You can read all you want on how to fly a plane, but you won't know how to until you actually fly one. Same goes for HD/BR players. I do know plenty about HD, maybe not as much as you, but I know my fair share. And of course I didn't know anything about HD originally, WHO DOES??? Yes, I learned some from you. I learned some of the basics from you and others at this board.I learned the rest by doing research, just like you did. So now that I know a lot, I'll explain it to others. WHY DOES THIS BOTHER YOU SO MUCH? Is your life that lame when someone you helped teach about HD starts to know a lot, it bugs you? Good God man. We do have the same TV? What is your model #? What did I get wrong this week huh?

    Unless I am reading this wrong, you can't use DVI with the 360. You can use VGA, but not DVI. Really? I thought it was just a periphal, that used the USB on the front, and was dependent on using component cables from the X360 into the TV....I still haven't had a decent look at it, however. No. All you can use is component or VGA.

    I'm not going to put retarded down. It's fine the way it is. Damn you're really pissed about it being there.

    Half of the posts in Site Feedback get off topic and turn into a bitch fest. It's just a test. The Graphics folder is just sitting there, so I changed it. If it doesn't work out, then I'll switch it back. And I brought up everything you said in the Mod folder and no one has really replied to it. They think the board is fine the way it is. To be honest, there is only so much we can change. The board is honestly doing fine at the moment. There won't be anymore Mods, no more changes to the layout, the mainsite is going to stay, and the mods are going to be less trigger happy when it comes to warnings.

    What do you think BR is? They are also dual layered. When it comes down to it, both are going to cost tons of money.

    Why is there a need for the Graphics folder? It is barely used and if it is, it's just CS little cousin. I'm going to change it to Side Feedback NHB. That way you guys can create the threads that I always close because they get off topic. You have a problem about something on the board, go in there and bitch your brains out. It will be NSFW.

    Yeah... So you don't buy into the HD hype? Or HD-DVD/BR hype?

    I haven't said a damn thing about 1080p. My TV is 1080i native with no 1080p capabilities.

    Sony is already losing money on them now, so they won't be lowering the price anytime soon.

    The add-on is great. I had the Toshiba A1 but sold it once the add-on came out. I can't upconvert DVDs on the add-on, but I have an upconverting DVD player so I don't care. You can't get TrueHD on the add-on, but I don't have a receiver that can support TrueHD, so I am not losing anything there. The add-on is "rockin."

    He didn't tell me anything since I didn't do anything. And if I wanted you gone, by "hacking" your account, I would have done something much worse than what was posted. And I am not going to ban you unless you break the rules. Simple as that.

    This Film Is Not Yet Rated...

    This Film Is Not Yet Rated is about the MPAA and why/how/who rates these movies. It's a great documentary and looks into a lot of stuff in the movie industry. It comes out on DVD on Jan 23rd, but did anyone actually see it in the theaters? (I downloaded it) I doubt it since it was only released in 18 theaters. But when it does come out on DVD, everyone should check it out.

    Well, I own both. And I like HD-DVD better. It has better picture quality, special features, the player is cheaper, the movies are cheaper and it has TrueHD (which BR doesn't). Blu-Ray has more titles out right now and more studio support. The cheapest BR player is $799, well $599 if you count the PS3. The cheapest HD-DVD player is $599, $199 if you have a 360 and want the add-on. Plus PORN is on to HD-DVD.

    Just use a twist-tie or a paper clip. And if you don't have a receiver, HDMI has better sound than analog. Some people say there isn't a difference between HDMI and component, but I can see a difference.

    No. Ahh yeah. "To change (something) into another form, substance, state, or product; transform: convert water into ice." 35MM is better quality. So when it is converted into HD, it loses quality. It is being converted, but into less quality. Hence down converting. Unless I am missing something here.
