read more you fucking idiots:
Blu-ray
Blu-ray discs do not use either PAL or NTSC coding but rather are 1080p (p: pixels, of vertical resolution) worldwide standard. Beware that there are a tiny minority encoded at 1080i50Hz sometimes called 1080p 25fps on the sleeve. Theyre basically 1080p content at PAL framerates, and cant be viewed on US or Canadian TVs without a framerate converter built into the player. It will either send out a signal your display cant show properly, or just default to a black screen.
Nope. Doing what I said I was going to do. This will involve setting up playback software, ripping and burning discs, and taking BD players from one apartment to another. It'll take a little time. In the mean time, prepare to be shamed.you guys huddling in dark corners trying to figure out how to move the goal posts again?
Yeah this thread is ownage of the year. All of you lose. First time in the history of the forums 12 boobs are all wrong.
Retard, You can change the frame rate of the file in your computer. MPEG stream clip does this easy. Why would you making another bluray disk prove anything other then you converted the media?
I don't have to convert anything and the disc is only one of many things I'll be doing. I'll also be demonstrating PC playback with and without AnyDVD HD enabled. Sit back and enjoy the shame.Retard, You can change the frame rate of the file in your computer. MPEG stream clip does this easy. Why would you making another bluray disk prove anything other then you converted the media?
I believe you can take that and put it in a computer and do anything. That was never the argument.
Anydvd is probably doing a real time fps conversion and you think it's magic. Lol.
Forgetting that the pal formatted bluray is 25fps and won't play on your tv? That was what we initially were talking about... You said it was the region lock. I said it was the fps. Remember? Now you want to do what? Be an idiot more? Ok go ahead.
And I'm sure software called anydvd also convert pal to NTSC or to frames readable by your tv. Just fucking stop.
If you check the boxes for the different regions it's gonna do what it needs to make it play, including changing the frame rate. But please burn a bluray disk and spend a bunch of time on your science experiment.
yes it is but that bluray has a certain resolution and a certain frame rate.PAL or NTSC is a signal format. The encoded video in the Blu-Ray disc is neither "PAL" nor "NTSC."
he played it on his htpc via a dvi to hdmi converter. This turned it into any other "file" and as I'm sure you know you can play back any fram rate and resolution on a computer. He turned his tv into a monitor.A comparable example: If I take a European SNES game and defeat the region lockout with a CIC chip bypass, does my TV say "unsupported video format?" It does not. We're talking about the same thing here. The video signal is generated by the SNES console, not the game cartridge content. Likewise, a "PAL" signal from a Blu-Ray player is generated by the player, not by the movie on the disc. Now *maybe* there's some special PAL color encoding for some variant of MPEG4 that might lend some credence to your line of thought, but that's not what we're talking about here.
We are talking about a video file that played perfectly fine on the the same hardware (PS3+TV) after the original disc failed *only* -- due ONLY to the region code flag of the original disc. The file was not re-encoded. It was simply decrypted and played back from a USB stick.
Wrong. Once again: READApparently you learned how to perpetuate the conflation of region-locking with PAL video signals
When he made it a file and played it back on his computer none of the pal issue presented themselves, as expected.
The aspect ratio is 4:3 which would at first blush suggest SD. However, the resolution is 1080i which isn't standard definition.So look back to retards post shows the specs of that bluray... look for the aspect ratio. What do you see?
You are ignored czroe so I dont see anything you type
I'm pretty sure you can buy things like older TV shows on BD that are also 4:3 aspect ratio. I'm not sure you can assume anything from the aspect ratio alone. You have to look at the encoding of the source material.
Even new films are shot in 4:3 at times. The Grand Budapest Hotel played around with aspect ratios. Almost the entire movie takes place in an older timeline and everything is displayed in 4:3...but still glorious high definition.
We arent talking about that.
