Homer Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 A nice Italian jacket (which cost more than my car apparently Will probably get used as much as the £600 leather jacket last year which got stuck in the cupboard and forgot about, oops) CC Jeans (34 waist, think my sis is trying to tell me something!) ... plus many other designer cloths that just don't look right on a bald fatass. Grandad slippers (best of the lot) Some rather decent books Bottle of Champagne (from the boss's vineyard ) Bottle of 28 year old vintage port (from the lass next door ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiceRocket Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 It may be obsolete where you live but out here it is state of the art. It's just that HD-DVD films/discs aren't released anymore (ended in June 2008) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveR Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 I was talking about you. Honestly, don't you know the internet works best if you don't have to have everything pointed out to you?

AlexM Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Some beer + chocolate (which I ate pretty swiftly). I spent Christmas day with my friend & his family, which was better than any present. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiceRocket Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Why a useless pressie? It's a HD-DVD player and you're not putting in HD-DVD discs, sounds like you should've received a dvd upscaler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CJ Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 It's a HD-DVD player and you're not putting in HD-DVD discs, sounds like you should've received a dvd upscaler So, if I D/L HD files and then play them though this it wont play as HD? BTW, it does upscale too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 So, if I D/L HD files and then play them though this it wont play as HD? BTW, it does upscale too. Don't think they work that way CJ. HD-DVD players are for playing HD-DVD's which are not made any more. It will play HD files if it is compatible with them, because it plays the discs doesn't mean it will play 1080p files. You would need to check the file compatibility of the machine to see what it does. Are you sure it is definitely a HD-DVD player? Didn't know you could still buy them. edit This sort of thing would have been ideal for what you do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked for something that would allow me to connect to my HD TV via a HDMI cable as my old DVD player didn't have this function and I don't have a BluRay burner.

Ahhh, sounds like an upscaling DVD player Those plug into TV's via HDMI & upscale regular DVD's to 1080i or 1080p. If it takes files via USB it may also upscale those. Whether or not it will play HD files in high resolution remains to be seen, couldn't say without knowing the spec. The thing we are talking about is actually called a HDDVD player. HDDVD and Bluray were part of a format war a couple of years back, like VHS and Betamax. Bluray is the new VHS which HDDVD has disappeared like Beta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My son will be very pleased Not useless at all, even the HDDVD players are very good bits of kit. The trouble is that you wouldn't be using it for its main use IYSWIM. It isn't one of them though so money well spent What is better is that it looks REALLY funky! It doesn't play Full HD files though, divx only by the looks of it. I think it will upscale them too though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it will upscale them too though I played some files through it this afternoon (via a USB flash disk - very cool idea) and the quality was superb. I am now hoping that I can also play the Trekstor HD through the USB port too as that would make it even betterer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
