I actually ask this as someone who has put off reading the Thrawn trilogy for all these years (I own the books and know plot points and such, and always planned to read them through regardless). It’s interesting that in the end, there doesn’t seem to be as much “passion” for the EU as I once thought; that is, it seems in general that people are ready to disregard it for the most part.
In general, if YOU had to choose between one to be canon, which is it?
I have tried to read through some of this thread, but I don’t understand much about this topic. My situation is this:
I have the MKV files for the first 2 movies on my computer. My computer has an HDMI out slot. I play one of the files in VLC on my computer, plug an hdmi cable into a receiver, which puts my computer screen on my tv. When the movie is played, it looks and sounds surprisingly good on my tv (surprising because I didn’t know how else to play these files on my tv, but noticed my old desktop does in fact have an hdmi slot).
So I am wondering if my method is not the preferred one, if peoples’ computers just don’t have hdmi slots, or if there’s some better way of doing this process?
And also, does anyone know off hand what the optimal settings would be in VLC and/or my receiver for playing this? On my test run I believe I switched the sound on VLC to 5.1, and my receiver to 7 channel audio. (btw this is not my receiver and tv, and I know little about this stuff).
Ok what’s the best one?
