    Dh Dvd

    Does anyone know if all HD DVD come with the standard DVD also? Every HD DVD has both versions but only 1/2 are listed as a dual format disc.

    I have a HD DVD for the bedroom TV and was planning on getting on the the new PS3 40Gig packages which come the the Spiderman Blu Ray compiled disc for the living room. I was going to use this in conjunction with my Denon upscaling player. I am an XBox 360 guy, so I would rather have a stand alone Blu Ray player for the rack, but I have read the PS3 is the best performing option and the only one with HDMI 1.3. Are there any stand alone player that performs better than the PS3?

    Also, does anyone have any good locations for purchasing HD DVD or Blu-Ray discs? I typically compare prices between Best Buy, Target, Walmart, & Amazon. I found that the release week you usually get the best pricing at Best Buy and Target. If you don't get it the release week the pricing goes up.

    No only the ones listed at the top saying HD-DVD and DVD or like Dual Format or something. There are a ton of them that are both formats but most of the older movies are just HD-DVD. Some of the new ones are only HD-DVD too like Transformers.

      I've made the jump to HD discs. Have you? (HD-DVD/Blu-Ray)
      by Chris D
      Well, I did it. I bought myself a PS3. I wasn't sure if I was going to or not, but ended up taking the plunge. I thought I might be waiting longer than this to go to the next-gen formats, but if anything, at least I held myself off this long instead of getting in on the very first players and wading...

      RDV-1092 vs PS3
      by Jaynaldo
      Can the RDV1092 match the PS3/blu ray in video and audio quality? I know it's not out yet, what's the feeling out there once blu ray hits the shelves. I know that the blu ray player is differnet from the stand alone player, does anyone knows the difference ?

      RSP-1068 with PS3 Blu-ray optical audio?

      I get DD and DTS with regular DVDs and games. When playing a Blu-ray disc, it reverts to Prologic. PS3 optical out is set to bitstream (tried linear PCM with same result).

      Thanks a lot! for any advice...

      PS3 Blu-ray Function dead?
      by audioqueso
      Is anyone else having this problem?

      After the last update 2.76, my PS3 stopped playing blu-ray movies. I've tried about 10 movies, and it doesn't work. I tried DVDs, it doesn't work. So it looks like it's the lens. But I try a game, and it works. However, in mid-game, I can NOT press...

      Stay with DVD, Buy a Blu-Ray, or None
      by urlawyer
      I have been on the fence with Blu-Ray (See below Pioneer BD-09FL or OPPO BDP 83) and now I read a report in my local paper with states that DVD sales world wide are down, that Blu-Ray has not caught on, and that Studios are getting worried.

      I would think that in times like this people...
