Sorry for the late reply but what I meant with "also" was: in addition (yeah I speak Dutch, not English... Could not find the correct term)

But anyway

What? VHS was analog. What would a DAC to do an analog signal? Digital is digital. I don't see what HDMI has to do with mosquito noise. I've never had video with mosquito noise because I don't use crappy sources. I don't apply processing to anything because I always start with an acceptable source. I don't need to apply filters to video because I don't watch 700 MB Xvid rips. I don't apply any processing to my music because I don't listen to lossy crap.

progressive is better than interlaced. no further argument needed on that lol. and unless you are projecting on a huge movie screen and need the best quality possible the difference between 720 and 1080 is not enough to ruin the quality of a video. if you need any bigger you would be shooting in 2K+ anyway which no normal person is doing or needing

Progressive of a lower resolution is not better than interlaced of a higher resolution. 2K is basically like shooting at 1080p. 4k and up is where it's at, even for scanning film, and even for downsampling to 1080p.

yep 1080 look better then 720 be it in i or p!but we werent embarking on that slipery slope !we were discussing how to this and that!cause there is a lot of info that is clearly too old!

http://www.anyhere.com/gward/hdrenc/hdr_encodings.html i found this page but i aint sure if its meant for computer screen ,tv screen or just plain photography!but they seem to say ms is pushing the wrong standard in term of quality vs the amount of space per bit it take?

HDR has zero to do with what we're talking about here. It started in photography but is creeping into videography now. It really makes stuff look quite trippy and sometimes Kodachrome-ish.

It's not about film, it's about digital video. A movie on Blu-ray is video. A TV show is video.

on a side note!as much as i love 1080i ,for mobile i would say go 1280x720 (720p)because on mobile this setting make more sense ressource wise!

1080i =1036800
720p =921600
so it would be better for mobile of those size

if you were to get a 23 inch tho 1080i would probably be better!

720p better than 1080i? Is this true?

I wrote the initial info for this case, so that's pretty much my review. Compared to the TT Command Snow I just evaluated, if THIS case was ATX sized, I would rather buy this case than the TT...

Overall, I'd recommend passing on buying this unless you're at the store and it's the cheapest one you like. I'm more impressed by the quality of the generic Apex TX521 that Tiger Direct likes to...

Picked these up for my TRON Legacy theme build. Got the optional light bar upgrade kit(s). Note, for a quad channel package you will need two light bar kits as each covers two sticks. No issues...

I honestly love this cooler, but I think I'm gonna move on to another one soon, it just looks... A bit to bland compared to other flaming red (literally) coolers on the market.

Metro 2033 is one of the greatest FPS games ever made. Although not usually recognized as such, due to the horrible state the gaming industry is in, it succeeds largely on its storytelling,...
