My big fat greek wedding part 3

My big fat greek wedding part 3 Second, Im noticing a very slight studdering problem. About once a second, or maybe once every few seconds, the video seems to hesitate for just a instant a tiny fraction of a second. You notice it most when the images on screen are moving quickly, or when the camera is panning. It may be that this issue is related to the first. Still trying to figure out what Im seeing here. Lionsgates Lord of War was the title where I noticed it first, and Ill have to check them all before knowing whether its just this title or all of the discs. Again, its not something Ive seen on any HD-DVD titles thus far. By the way, I havent tested the Samsungs standard DVD upconversion capability to any real degree yet. Just FYI. If I had to compare my initial impressions of Blu-ray Disc to those of well, I certainly need to see more Blu-ray titles and spend more time with the player. Im really just giving you my initial, off-the-cuff comments, based on less than 10 hours of viewing time with the Samsung. Its worth noting that weve only seen one player for each format, so its hard to say what issues are specifically related to the players, and what are format related. But right I think I may end up giving Round One of this format war to HD-DVD, and that surprises the hell out of me. Sure, that Tosh HD-DVD player was a lemon until the firmware upgrade, but its worked like a charm since. And the first 25 or so HD-DVD discs Ive viewed just look better overall than the first 4 Blu-ray Discs Ive seen. The HD-DVDs also have a LOT more extra my big fat greek wedding part 3 than the Blu-ray Discs even if you consider that most of the extras are recycled from standard DVD. For the record, Terminator on Blu-ray has 7 deleted scenes and 2 featurettes, recycled from standard DVD. Fifth Element has a pop-up trivia track, again from the standard DVD. The Lionsgate titles have nothing. I keep hearing these comments both official and unofficial from Blu-ray execs saying that theyre leaving off the extras so they can give all the extra disc space over to the best video quality possible. Which tells me that Blu-ray is having major disc space problems. Ive heard from more than a few industry sources that Blu-ray is having trouble getting the dual-layered BD media to work, which means that discs with lots of extras and good video quality arent an option now. It also means that longer movies arent an option now either. Both are problems for this format that dont seem to be troubling HD-DVD at the moment at least not at first glance, based on the initial title offering. What all of this goes to prove, of course, is just what Ive been saying all along: These formats are being my big fat greek wedding part 3 to market before theyre ready. And it also proves that the best option for the vast majority of you out there is just to save your money. Dont even bother with Blu-ray Disc and HD-DVD for at least a year, because there are significant bugs to be worked out yet. Wait until better hardware and software is available at a better price, and the early adopter types have dealt with the problems and getting the manufacturers and studios to fix them. Anyway, Ill have more to say about Blu-ray Disc and the Samsung player in the next few days, as I spend a little more time with it. But so far, Im less than impressed. I think Sony has majorly screwed up by going with MPEG2 on SL discs. I didnt understand why they would stay with MPEG 2 either. Ive heard that cable operators are looking at moving on to MPEG 4 and VC This is an error that they better rectify quicly. Samsung is taking returns because people are unhappy with the movie quality.
