What is a good HD video player?

Brenden B

I downloaded Avatar in 1080p and the file will play in WMP but there is no audio. Then I play it in VLC player and it plays both audio and video but just after a couple seconds it becomes all pixely and the video freezes but the audio keeps going. Who knows what I can do? I'm playing it on my laptop and its a very nice HP HDX 16 so it should be able to handle it. Any suggestions?

Why am I getting Black & White pictures after connecting a DVD player to new LG 47" 3D LED TV?

Arius Dath

Answer
I found some info on your TV and it seems like there is a lot of problems with that model's 3D mode.

Also it seems that LG wants you to only use their LG Blu-Ray players for "best quality and performance."

If you still have the receipt for the TV I would suggest maybe a different manufacture rather then LG.
If you don't I would try using a LG blu-ray player.

After reading a few reviews and user experiences I found the one below most helpful.

I have a few questions about Blu Ray stuff?

best 3d dvd player review image

Critter122

on January 11th, i am planning on getting Piranha 3D, but after the terrible 3d quality of My Bloody Valentine 3D, i was considering a blu ray player.
1. if i don't have a 3d tv, can i still get a 3d blu ray player to make the 3d look better than regular dvd?
2. if i just get a regular blu ray player, will the 3d still be a lot better than regular dvd 3d?
3. is blu ray worth it?

Answer
"1. if i don't have a 3d tv, can i still get a 3d blu ray player to make the 3d look better than regular dvd?"

No. A 2D TV is only capable of displaying older, anaglyph 3D, which uses color tinted cardboard glasses and is available on both DVD and Blu-ray.

If you want to see the true stereoscopic 3D effect that some movies on Blu-ray use (called 3D Blu-ray), then you need a 3D TV, 3D Blu-ray player, and electronically shuttered 3D eyeglasses.

You should know that "My Bloody Valentine" was released in two forms of 3D, anaglyph (DVD and Blu-ray) and stereoscopic (3D Blu-ray). The stereoscopic version that was recently released will have a better 3D effect (when viewed on a true 3D system) than the anaglyph version , but was still poorly reviewed when compared to other 3D Blu-ray titles: http://www.blu-ray.com/movies/My-Bloody-Valentine-3D-Blu-ray/16128/#Review .

"2. if i just get a regular blu ray player, will the 3d still be a lot better than regular dvd 3d?"

Not really, the picture may look a little sharper, but that's about it.

"3. is blu ray worth it?"

It is if you have an HDTV that is 42" or larger.

What should i buy first? A new 42' LED Vizio 3d tv or a new soundbar such as the sony htct260?

Taylor

I'm tight with money right now and I am going to buy one or the other, I've never had a Soundbar before but neither have I had a 3d TV, what should I get first?!

Answer
First off you will need a tv and then a sound bar. I would not waste my money on a 3D technology that is not supported by software. Keep in mind, to watch in 3D you will need the following: 3D HDTV, 3D blu ray disc player, 3D blu ray disc movie (at this time there are only 180 titles available in 3D and they are mainly animated movies from Disney) and 3D glasses for each person. The price is higher for any 3D product. Vizio is a bargain price tv that is not very good in quality or reliability. Sony is not know for making very good sound system and the quality and reliability have dropped over the years. I never had any Sony product that have lasted over 3 years. The first DVD player model 7000 and 7700 the following year and paid over $1,100 each. The first HDTV by Sony and paid $6,400. Go online to Home Theater Magazine and read the reviews on all products for a home theater. If you read yahoo questions all the time, you will notice that 95% of tv problems comes from LCD or LED tv and 95% of those are the bargain price tv. Keep in mind, you get what you pay for. Hope this will help you out.

I would like to know is the Sony Blu-ray 3d surround sound is the best flat screen speakers to buy?

palmerz6

or what is the best speakers for the flat screen TV.

Answer
When buying a speaker, you should demo them first at your local retail store. Here are some brand to look for: Definitive Technology, Energy, JBL, Infinity, Klipsch and Polk Audio to name a few. Sony is not the best on surround sound. Go online to Home Theater Magazine and read the reviews on just about anything you are interested in. Sony has a poor customer service support and they are not a very dependable product. I never had any Sony tv (2 first HDTV in the market price $6,400 34" CRT tv and a 32" CRT), DVD player (2 both priced at over $1,100 when they first came out) and they did not last more than 3 years. Hope this will help you out.

How can a 120 Mhz refresh rate make a picture clearer?

best 3d dvd player review image

Angelo

Aren't we breaking laws of physics? A television camera scans at 60 Mhz, then sends out the signal to television sets. No matter how fast the refresh rate is on the television, you cannot reproduce a picture clearer than what the camera photographed, right? I do not understand all the hoopla about televisions with fast refresh rates.

Answer
LCD manufacturers started increasing the refresh rates of LCD displays because of a perception of image blurring during fast motion. There is more detailed information about that, and how much it actually helps, here: http://reviews.cnet.com/4520-6449_7-6792632-1.html .

Another reason is that motion pictures are filmed at 24 fps (frames per second). The standard refresh rate for TVs in the U.S. has been 60Hz. To prepare 24 fps material for video display (such as on DVD), components of the image are repeated, so that film material can be stored at 30Hz for video. This way a TV can get frames that divide into a whole number for correct display and timing (60/2=30). The problem is that detail is sacrificed somewhat to create the illusion of 30 from 24 (the extra frame data is an approximation, and not original material).

Blu-ray discs can preserve the structure of 24 fps film by encoding the video at 24Hz. If you have a 60Hz Tv, then the Blu-ray player will have to make up the intermediate frames to get an even number, because 60/24=2.5. But if you get a 120Hz TV, there is no need to create intermediate frames, because 120/24=5. So Blu-ray material can look sharper and more filmlike on a 120Hz TV than a 60Hz one.

With the increase in refresh rates, some TVs also incorporate motion processing. They are creating intermediate frames, not because they need to compensate for timing differences, but to create more fluid movement. They eliminate the cadence of 24 fps film and make movies look more like live video broadcasts. Technically the feature is independent of the refresh rate, but some manufacturers make it the default mode so that you have to look in the TV's menus to disable it.

3D material will also become available for home viewing, and refresh rates of 120Hz are considered the minimum to handle the display of stereo frame data.

Please recommend me the Best 3D TV for my family?

Kathleen B

Iâve been looking for a TV for my family and decided to buy a Full HD 3D TV since my kids love the animated movies. I researched and read many of the 3D TV reviews on the web. I learned there are active and passive 3D TV. What is the difference between those two? Does anyone know which one is better?

Answer
3DTV is a waste of money right now. It's still very expensive, and honestly the content just doesn't justify the prices. In addition, new technologies are due within the next few years that will make the whole 3d glasses thing obsolete.

Active glasses use an electric shutter to cover 1 eye and then the other. At the same time the TV only displays the image for the uncovered eye. This happens several times a second so your brain thinks it sees 2 separate images and combines them to form the 3d image. Active glasses are very expensive ($100/pair) and relatively fragile.

Passive glasses are like those you've used in the theater. The screen shows both images at once but the lenses are slightly polarized in different ways so each eye only sees a different image. Passive glasses are cheaper ($30) however you're essentially watching TV with sunglasses.

You then have to buy a 3D blu-ray player, and then 3D blu-ray movies. While the 3D blu-ray movies also come with plain old blu-ray and DVD versions, you're still looking at $40 for a movie.

What is the best 46" LED 240hz 1080p 3D TV available? is it a sony, samsung or something else?

Jose

What is the exact name of it. I'm looking for a tv with outstanding picture quality that is good for regular tv watching and especially for sports. Any suggestions? no budget, so no need to worry about how good it is for its money or anything...thanks.

Answer
Go online to Home Theater Magazine and read the reviews on tvs, along with the pro and con of each technology. Plasma tv is still considered to have the best picture quality of all tv in the market. Panasonic is the only plasma tv they recommend. As for 3D, it has not been a big hit with consumers. Keep in mind that to watch in 3D you will need the following: 3D HDTV, 3D blu ray disc player, 3D blu ray movies (at this time there are only around 110 title available and they are mainly animated movies from Disney) and 3D glasses. The price of 3D is still very high. I never had a Sony product that have lasted me more than 3 years. The first DVD player model 7000 and the following year 7700 both priced at over $1,100 each and the first HDTV in the market. A Sony 34" CRT HDTV for the price of $6.400. If you read yahoo yahoo questions all the time, you will notice many issue with Sony. Look at a Panasonic 46" Plasma 3D HDTV or a Samsung. Hope this will help you out.
