i'm beginning to hate progress...

from wiki - xvYCC is not supported by DVD-Video or Blu-ray, but is supported by the high-definition recording format AVCHD and PlayStation 3. so i suppose it's pretty pointless bothering with it at present if my main distrib. is dvd....

There is no harm in trying it but i think a tv with XV technolagy is needed.

unfortunately it would seem the only way to really see any difference is

a. connect camera direct to lcd via hdmi

b. playstation

c. media station playing avchd direct to lcd

all 3 being pretty much impractical for commercial distrib.

oh well, one day i suppose, by which time we'll probably have moved on to 3d.....

does anyone actually shoot in xv color???

I don't think it's practical for most applications yet.
