Got My Toshiba HD DVD Player Today!
First thing to note:
1. The MAC DVDSP4 HDDVD on standard media IS COMPATIBLE. But it has an issue: a) It appears that the menu is got an issue, you can't move around at all, so you have to open the little slider on the remote and select a chapter to make it work. (Bye Bye transitions, but I think apple will get that corrected) b) Kinda slow to load, but boy!!! 2. Is better than watching Discovery Channel in HD, SUPERB!!! |
Can you give a bit more details on what you mean exactly. Is this like burning a HD DVD formated disc to a DVD-R? What codec, MPEG-2, h.264, VC-1?
I'm sorry, i don't have a mac or FCP so I don't fully understand, and I'm sure i can't be the only one. |
You lucky dog!
The folks at avsforum.com has been discussing and congratulating the lucky few who got them from Best Buy today--though a few haven't gotten the movies for it yet.[Tuesday] Glad to hear Apple has been ahead of the curve here [HD-DVD on regular media]--can't wait till "iDVD HD" comes out--or maybe some kind of rudimentary support by Roxio--then all HDV camcorder owners are gonna be in heaven. Me, I'm going to wait a bit till a few more flicks come out. Maybe something unique like "True Lies" or "Bladerunner" in HD before dropping $499 for the player. |
Yes, DVD Studio Pro 4 allows you to burn HD-DVD's on a regular DVD, it looks amazing including the menu.....
....the problem is; you know that overlay shadow or line or whatever it is you choose as the indicator for your menu selection, well, is not there so you can' choose anything. |
Movies come out Tuesday which I kind of don't understand the reason you'll release the player and not the movies!!!!
|
Oh, and the remote is kind of hard to see in the dark, you would think it would be backlit!
