Here is an email I recieved from "ONE SIX RIGHT". If you dont know about this movie you had better. It's great go to the web site and check it out! And if anyone knows how to record from their cable box to pc via the firewire cable record it, so I can have it on my PC! If you don't, but want to see if you can let me know, I can show you were the links are to record HD from you Cable box to your PC. Here is the email:
I remember when this started production last year and it sounded awesome. The DVDs (incl. a HD DVD version) is available for sale through their site (need HD DVD player for it). This brings back that special joyish feeling of flying I had as a kid and the true romance of flying. It's too routine in my job, but this almost brings a joyful tear to my eye, watching those trailers, and a reminder why we all love aviation so much! The soundtrack sounds great too and the footage is simply outstanding!

I cannot confirm or deny it, but the rumor mill and jungle drums have sounded the beat of hope for the end of next year! Don't remember the name(s) of the source(s), but it was at least in one credible home theater magazine. We get a lot of those tech mags for free while flying the line after the flight attendants scoop up the "left overs" in the cabin (in addition to People, US and In Touch of course)...necigrad wrote:If that's for real (which I actually think is best) and not a joke I'll see those dual players at CES next week.

Standard DVDs play in standard definition. Granted if you use the component cable outputs from the DVD player the picture will still look amazing but it will not be high definition. The only way to see this in HD is to have HD Cable service, an HD Cable Box and the channel DiscoveryHD. Most cable services that offer an HD package will include all "free HD" channels, ie ESPN HD, TLC HD, and Discovery HD to name a few. If your Dad just invested in an HDTV he'd be wise to make full use of his purchase by getting HD Cable Service or if that's not available in your area an HD-DVD player, BluRay player, or PS3.
Second what Burner said. The DVD and HD DVD discs are available from www.onesixright.com , but the HD DVD does require a HD DVD player and will not play in a regular DVD player. There are also upconverting DVD players you can buy and play the standard DVDs in, that will "transform" your picture in to a better quality (interlaced) for ones HDTV. If you have a 720p or 1080p HDTV you'd lose quality whenever you are viewing something less than that standard of HD (Yes, there are many standards, 1080p being the highest right now). Long story short, if you have a HD DVD player get that disc from the link above, otherwise you're better off viewing it on Discovery HD (channel) with the HD programming from your cable company. A standard DVD in comparison is crappy quality!Jonnyb wrote:Luckily only yesterday my dad brought home a 42" HD LCD TV!!! Now I just gotta get the dvd from where?
Note: Most people don't understand you have to "feed" the HDTV with a HD signal, otherwise you're committing "HD abuse", while you think you're viewing High Def, but in fact viewing standard media on a screen capable of much more. As far as the DVDs and HD DVDs however, the HD ones simply do not play in a standard player.
