Topic: PS3 as a blu-ray player

[iiinas]

hahaha yeah, exactly what i was thinking. san ba kayo usually bumibili ng BDs? sa amazon mura around $20 lang (900Php) pero syempre may shipping fee pa yun. dito sa pinas nagtanong ako sa infomax 1700 pinaka-mababa. of course i can always opt to buy mint condition BDs din dito sa pinoydvd hehehe

madami dito sa amazon kumukuha tapos johnny air cargo (jac) ang padala ditosa pinas. and tama ka, you can get pre-owned mint condition from the pdvd marketplace. knowing that pdvd members are really video enthusiasts, lahat na mabili mo are parang brand new pero at very reasonable prices na.

ano yung johnny air cargo sir? mas mura ba shipping pag ganun? for sure pag naisipan ko nang bumili ng BDs eh dito ko maghahanap sa pdvd, confident naman ako na almost bnew din mabibili ko dito.

jac yung service na gamit ng tao to ship yung mga orders nila from usa to here, bali when you buy from amazon, you ship it to jac's new jersey office tapos they ship it to the philippines for you to pick up. for a fee syempre. pero mabilis sila kausap.

may thread dito tungkol sa kanila and how to avail of their services.

[n3d_d2x]

uy thanks sa link sir! from what i have read sa thread, mukhang ok nga talaga yung JAC at mura lang. mag submit na rin ako ng application, and it's a good thing na may special rates pala sila sa pdvd members.

[iiinas]

pinaka ok nga bumili sa tate, number one, ok ang warranty dyan 2 years, if ever may problems you can bring it back to where you bought it. number two, ang tate ang pinaka malaking market when it comes to video games, kaya the support from sony is definitely there, una kayo sa release ng bluray movies, games and to a certain extent pati online goodies (although technically anyone can access this anywhere in the world basta may u.s. ps3 id). so go ahead, buy the ps3, but as i said if you are not in a hurry wait for september when they will bring down the price of the 80gb down to the 399$ level and phased out the 40gb model.

rule of thumb daw, 1 va = 0.65 watt, so yung 500 va = 325 watts. kaya na yun even with the lcd. although wala masyandong allowance. i think since most probably meroon kang voltage regulator, i-stand alone mo nalang yung ups sa ps3 tapos yung lcd sa voltage regulator mo nalang saksak. para sure lang.

[mizyel]

salamat sa reply

@skylynx
hehe ako to si davz.. ano pa naka saksak sa UPS mo? ps3 lang? pano pag wala nang kuryente,.pano mo i-proper shutdown since ps3 lang ang naka UPS at hindi kasama ang tv mo?..di mo makikita ang xmb..

@iiinaslao
naka bada Line conditioner ako courtesy of sir nemesis... so ok na yun for TV right?
kahit 500va nalang na ups just for ps3 im good to go?.. 135watts lang kasi 40gb..

[iiinas]

sabagay may point ka nga, kung nag brown out on nga yung ps3 mo pero hindi mo ma klikot kasi off na yung tv. i think kuha ka nalang ng 750 va para roughly 500 watts, yun safe na ang lcd and ps3 sa isang ups, lcd tv kasi mga 150 to 225 watts ang mga 32"lcd.

Yep ps3 lang, na memorize ko na ,

[n3d_d2x]

may chance din ba masira ang lcd tv pag nagkaroon ng power outage bigla? nako sa outlet lang nakasaksak yung samsung lcd ko, and it has already experienced about 2 power outages if i remember right. ano ba nagiging effect nun? baka may sira na pala lcd ko...

anyway, kailangan ko rin pala bumili ng UPS pag bumili na rin ako ng PS3. magkano na kaya UPS ngayon? nakalimutan ko na magkano yung bili ko dito sa UPS ng pc ko. 500va lang din ito.

Better get a voltage regulator of at least 1000watts for protection against power surge.

mas recommended mo sir avr na lang?

[CARLITOCOOL]

Got myself a 1000W AVR for my 42" plasma, dvd player and ps3   



 

[iiinas]

mas recommended mo sir avr na lang?

para hindi tayo ot read this thread nalang. 

http://pinoydvd.com/board/index.php?topic=70886.30

basically it answers all your queries. iba kasi ang voltage fluctuation = avr sa surge protection = solo surge protectors or more sophisticated line conditioners (combination of surge protection + line conditioning), in an ideal world and wallet size, you should get an avr and line conditioner, tapos iba ba ups. gastos! 

[n3d_d2x]

^Ok sige thanks bro and sorry na-OT na nga hehehe

[pao625™]

Was able to finally change it...nagulat ako sa umpisa.
Sobrang panget nung PQ...nakalimuan ko hindi pa pala naka set-up.
So nasa 480i pa siya...sobrang labo.
Buti na lang may improvement when I set the video to 720p via component.
Pero may diff pa din pag HDMI.

Hi Sir,

are you using component cables for the 720p? anu po un cable nio? san nio po nabili?

[steelcrazy]

Hi Sir,

are you using component cables for the 720p? anu po un cable nio? san nio po nabili?

i was using component cable for my ps3 before. it does produce finer picture quality compared to composite cables. colors are also more vibrant when it comes to using component cable than using composite cables.

[donj87]

Thank u Sir, bakasyo kasi ako sa US, uuwi ako end of this month. thanks again!

ok, great! thanks! knya nia nia 720p via component?

[darkwing]

yup you can do 720p in component

[n3d_d2x]

ang PS3 din ba naee-enhance ang divx videos and jpeg pics pag may hdtv ka (syempre hdmi connection)? nagiging parang high def din ba? thanks.

[darkwing]

you mean upscale just like a DVD? Yup, it depends on the source material though

[n3d_d2x]

^Yup, I meant upscale din (i was careful not to use the term "upscale" baka kasi may iba palang term pag sa divx files etc hehe)

ok thanks bro!

excited na ako magka-PS3! pero baka hintayin ko yung lalabas na 80gb with the price of 40gb.
