Ice Age in Hi-Def rocks!

[Wag]

It actually started out with a 5min short I've never seen before. Apparently a squirel started the ice-age. Who knew?

 

[Goosemaster]

That Shrek he has is just off the HBO, converted to WMV.

If you get cable with a HD box and Firewire output you can record to DVHS all you like.

Either some kind of hard drive or an HDCAM tape.

Maybe, but it's still 1080p.
I had it on my 2048x1536 CRT, and the quality looked PICTURE PERFECT. No grain or video artifacts at all.
The 720p videos still have grain.

shrek is on nbc hd and looks great as well.

It's not 1080p. It's 1080i at best, upconverted to 1080p. It will be a long time before someone broadcasts 1080p, if ever. Marc Cuban said he wants to do it.

The few Imax stuff released in WMV-HD 1080p looks pretty interesting. Blu-Ray should have 1080p support as well.

 

[yhelothar]

Yes it probably wasn't broadcasted. Most WMVHD comes in 720p or 1080p flavors.
Never in 1080i.

shrek is on nbc-hd in 1080i

Shrek was never released in WMV-HD format. It's a capture converted to 1080p or whatever resolution was used. Same with all the other HD movies you download.

 

[Liviathan]

Too bad the movie still sucks.

 

[amol]

🙁

im still stuck with SDTV . . .

and no cable or satellite to boot . . .

 

[neonerd]

squirrels are responsible for everything....they're responsible for power outages at my school twice a year...twice a year we find two toasted black ones near the generators 😛

hehe it was pure sarcasm...that, and do you have any idea HOW LONG it would take to download...the numbers are mind-boggling:Q

 

[jsbush]

Ahh, now I want a HD tuner, sigh...

Bought my HDTV, and never got around to getting HD satellite or cable yet.

Yep, but still not as long as the 1.5GB pr0no I dl'ed at 2.3KB/s
Took somewhere near 140hours.

I love that little squirrel guy... Ice Age is a nice looking movie even not in high def 🙂
