Topic: Which Way To Go?

[Clondalkin]

I scanned through Ep 1 of Band of Brothers 1080p hV rip using Media Player Classic and ffdshow as codec.  No prob naman.  My processor is Intel E4300 not overclocked.  Which particular scene ang problematic?  Mas okay if you can indicate which particular episode and time.

MPC just solved my problem 1080ps.     Stupid me, it's not the PC, it's the software player.

You don't need HDMI to get 5.1 surround. Just use your normal coax in --- wait, wait ... eGreat31b has optical out. PCH100 has coax out. You need to check compatibility with your AVR

Hello Sir Mark! Musta na po! I went to Ehome this morning to audition the Egreat and it really is amazing! Bilib ako sa PQ at SQ...kayang kayang tapatan ang Bluray! Also, found out that 5.1 is achieveable via optical cable...so, that basically sealed the deal for me! I love watching films in surround sound kasi eh...

[stickfighter]

pwede, use hdmi to your panel directly, then coax/optical to your avr (almost all avrs have both audio outs anyway) so you get great video and great sound too. 

Thanks for the input Sir iiins. Was at Ehome this morning and Richie explained to me how the Egreat can achieve 5.1 surround sound. Value for money, this is the best machine by far. Awesome video, great sound!

Glad to hear that, the latest version of ffdshow works better with multicore processors

Ayan naman eh oh! Pero yang Extreme for 2,500ph, why not! pwede!!    At bakit nagkaron ng MAC? Wala ako pambili nyan.    Baligtarin na lang natin  Extreme-->NMT-->PJ-->MACdo (sagot na kita value meal). 

No problem at all re the mask.

not sure if you guys have also tried hooking up an external USB connected DVD drive. It works. That is, you can also play regular DVD media via the external USB DVD drive connected to the EGREAT. :-)

I did the same via XBOX360's HD-DVD add-on kit, it can see the HD media, but can't play it. On the other hand, using the same external USB HD-DVD drive, it can read regular (legacy) DVD titles without a hitch.

Hope this helps.

Richie, actually mentioned this to me earlier today when I was at Ehome. He told me that if I had an external dvd drive, that I can connect it to the Egreat via USB and be able to view dvd's.

I forgot to ask if the Egreat "upcales" the viewing to a higher resolution...would you know Sir Jack?

since pareho lang kaluluha nyan ng pch, it does! through hdmi and component!

i also got a lot of 480p sd files, and it looks ok naman when upscaled to 720p. have not tried upscaling a real dvd through external drive though.

I cannot believe this thread.  Why do I get this feeling this thread openly promotes program piracy. "What kind of HD collection do you have?" "Oh, I collect free HD material downloaded from the 'net" "Isn't it piracy?" "Libre naman 'to at pinaghirapan ko idownload ng matagal, binayad ko naman ung DSL ko" Pareho lang iyan sa peke na DVD..." HD naman 'to" "Anyway I will sooner or later buy an original" Yeah right...

Is it possible for egreat to read mkv burned in DVD+R via external USB DVD drive?  As of now, DVD media are cheaper than HDD for storage.

I tend to agree with this and with a complaint about this thread that I received via PM today. What started out as an interesting poll has evolved into a piracy thread, complete with little smileys that seem to indicate "I know I'm doing something not allowed here, but I termed it properly." Locking it for now until I get further advice from the Admin.

Please don't get your panties in a bunch and start half a dozen "Dear kapitan, why lock this thread???" threads right away, okay? I've already explained why I'm locking it for now, and am getting an opinion from the site owner if this sort of discussion will be allowed here. For all you know this thread may be reopened if it's gray enough...

Thank you for your attention.
