Well, given that the "MP3 player quality shoot-out" proposal
seems to
have attracted some interest, how about a "Video shoot-out".
- a real DVD, on a real DVD player
- a real DVD, replayed through a suitable PC from a DVD-ROM drive
- a "ripped to disk DVD", through a suitable PC from HDD
- a "rippted to disk and Divxed DVD", through a suitable PC from
HDD
Anyone willing / able to provide the necessary kit?
I would suggest that, in the interests of fairness we choose a single
DVD movie, that we can all agree is well-mastered, and the various
camps rip in advance, so that the proponents of the various ripping
formats can choose whatever settings they consider are the best
quality-wise.
There is, as we know, going to be a reasonable quality sound system
there for the MP3 players and the xAP demo. I'm sure someone can
rustle up a reasonably good video projector.
Interested?
If so, what film(s) would you recomend as being a good showcase?
Regards,
Mark
