Real lightsabers and "holograms"
Time

I think yous guys are getting me wrong. The way I see it one day this method although in its infancy now, may be able to yield a free floating 3d picture ie: No stereoscopic method needed. It would be more like the holo deck in Star Trek. It would look totally natural and real. The problems it gives now eventually will be worked out, I'm totally sure!

Remember how bad LCD and PLasma tvs were when they first came out, crt was amazingly bad when first invented. The pictures were awful, the sets were huge, no colour! But in the big scheme of things it hasnt took that long to get were we are now. 8k, yes 8K displays with colours and depth to die for, Tv's as thin as a pain of glass!

I for one cant wait to sit in the Tantive's corridor, laser blasts left and right and then Vader strolls through that door way :-)

Sheeet! I want it now!

Has everyone forgotten that George believes the end of the world is this December.

Any one else think he may using the money for his own rocket and construction of his space station house were he'll live out his days circling the smoldering rock that was once the earth?

Anyway full admiration for George giving so much to charity.

^ Yeah. I use a full hd projector which can display 24fps natively, which it does when playing an official Blu ray, but if I encode an AVCHD at 23.976 the player converts it to 60hz. Im now wondering if it could be the software I use "multiavchd" which I use to add simple menus or alter the size and or uncropmkv and tsmuxer which I use to do a straight remux. I'm now thinking of getting myself a different player as it looks like Panny ones are the most picky when using avchd's.

Thanks for the links Stretch. Had a look doesn't look like it should have a problem playing 23.976 of which it does play but as I say converts to 60hz but i have noticed on the sites for audio they all say ac3 or pcm, I have lots of discs with dts sound and the player happily plays them. I think the 60hz problem might be the players fault but cant cant find much info on the subject on the web.

Yeah I use Verbatum Singapore never had any probs. Checked for updates on the Panasonic website but my player is up to date. So it looks like its only AVCHD's at 23.976 the player converts to 60hz. Very weird. Tried encoding at 24fps but the the audio goes out of sync but if a standard dvd encoded at ntsc standards at 23.976 lets me choose to play at 60 or 24 htz! Very, very weird.

Hey Neg, will the final product be 24 fps or 23.976?

I've noticed anything I've encoded at 23.976 my  (panasonic) Blu Ray player converts it to 60hz, its only discs at encoded at 24 it seems to play at 24.

we're working at 24fps i think.

i've gotten different test files for it.

 

so i'll make sure... especially for the

DVD version...which might be 23.976..

Cheers Neg. Just dont want your eventual release to not play as intended on my av stuff.

And catbus thanks, will have a look at the firmware version over the weekend and see if it needs updating, it is and old player now though, Panny bd35, dont think its my cables as I say all my official blu rays play at 24hz its only my other discs, the not so official ones that seem to have the problem.
