  1. In TWNR, the spokes in closeup wheel shots looked like lines.

    They are now clearly cylinders! :o

  5. Like hi-fi but for T.V. 😄

    basically, anything better than NTSC or PAL...although that used to be
    considered High Def...but High Def was originally used in the 30s to
    mean the first "standard" for encoding.
    Now it means ATSC,DVB or ISDB format.

  6. Isn't it digital? So if you aren't in a good spot to get good
    reception, instead of snowflakes like a normal tv it gets chunky and
    choppy (so i've heard/think i've heard)

    At least it makes use of those 20 foot lcd screen tvs at sears.

  7. when i release the next movie, it will be available as a super
    clear...SUPER clear...DVD, and also on whatever is available to play Hi
    Definition, most likely Blu-Ray (30GB?) discs.

    It's roughly 4 times the resolution as DVD's

    It biggest screen I've played it on was 52" and it was delicious!

  11. Hi Def is as much an improvement to standard TV as Color was to Black &
    White. I bought a 52" Hi Def set a year ago and coupled it with a
    Digital Video Recorder. Our cable provider only has ten stations in Hi
    Def and over a hundred in standard digital. The difference is so
    remarkable that we won't watch the non HD ones anymore.

    Hi Def DVD players are available but in limited supply and very pricey.
    I'm waiting for the prices to come down.

  12. although this doesn't really show too much in terms of clarity (other
    than the detail on very far away clouds) it does show the 16:9 aspect
    ratio.

    This shot is a picture taken to memory from the tape that is playing in
    the camera...now THAT's handy! (but clarity on the actual video is WAY
    nicer than the pic you can take from it)
