XBOX360 HD-DVD player

I am unsure if you will be able to rip with this drive.  I have AnyDVD-HD and an LG Bluray/HD-DVD writer which does this fine.

Check around before you get too excited Andrea.  I've seen threads where folks have had trouble doing with it what you want to do.

I paid all less than a brand new HD-DVD movie, so it's not a huge problem, at the end (^^,)

The question is still open, though!

LMAO! I just have to answer this, do not listen to him, go ahead and get excited, the Xbox 360 HD DVD player is what most people, if not all I know that does these kinds of projects use, I use it myself, so YES you can rip your HD DVD's with what you have, you just need to make sure you get the driver is all.

DJ, it's all your fault if I've bought another damn dead format drive along with movies... (^^,) well, now it's mine, could you please tell me where to get the driver(s) needed, and which kind of software to use for ripping (preferably free) that could also manage VC1?

Thanks!!!

Dolby Digital+ shows up on my BD's when played, my HD receiver even shows DD+ when watching.

BD could decode only the surround channels from DD+, and the others will be treated as "simple" AC3; so, a DD+ from HD-DVD could be encoded in another format, as LPCM or DTS.

d_j,

If you HAVE a problem with me, take it to pm, do NOT bring it into someone's thread.  Otherwise I WILL ask a moderator to step in.

Thanks

Animal House is much much better on HD-DVD and also Streets of Fire with Diane Lane is only available on HD-DVD.  It looks incredible if you're into DL in her prime.

This is one I am doing, I did not get many HD-DVD's myself just the titles that really interest me, the titles I have are these,

Seed of Chucky
King Kong (came with the player)
The Thing
Sneakers
The Hitcher
Black X-Mas Unrated
Army of Darkness
Feast Unrated
Slither
Streets of Fire
Midnight Run
Cat People
The Dukes of Hazzard Unrated

In Jonno's thread, you talked about the fact that your UK "The Thing" HD-DVD was coupled perfectly with BD soundtrack, at the contrary the US HD-DVD version was not in sync... do you know why?

My apologies Andrea, I was only trying to help.  I'm glad it's going to work just fine.  Very cool for you to have a new format to check out.

Also Apollo 13 is much better in HD-DVD.

I own this HD-DVD and I can attest to it's awesome picture.

Streets of Fire is visually stunning and even better in HD.  It ain't a perfect film but it sure does look great.

It is on my to do list but probably not by the whole Team, we have to many projects going at once lol for me to add more, so what I am doing is just getting the movie on BD with the audio and chapters, so it is a "movie only" but at least it can be watched and enjoyed.

Except for Feast, since this is the only Unrated version I wanted to include this film and the other 2 sequels as extras since I am fairly certain those will not get a BD release.

Do you mean this Feast?

Maybe it's time to do "Apollo 13 [spoRv]" (new acronym, do you like it?) - HD-DVD video with LD DTS audio (and, if needed, LD chroma too...)

I do have cinema DTS for this one ..... so if it's a consideration, let me know.  We'll get it worked up for you.

"let's get it started"! Why don't add the LD AC3 soundtrack - along with the italian LD PCM?
