well the battle is over, sadly. i'll continue to enjoy HD-DVDs while they can still be found, i'm guessing they won't completely disappear for a year or two. by then i could get a nice blu-ray drive for my comp for less than $200 lol. funny a bare BD-ROM drive for a computer costs that much, and i got my HD-DVD player for $99 + 5 free titles :ohwell:

Wow, I didn't know this was here...count me in too. I still use my HD DVD player quite a lot actually and plan to buy many many more movies. I also own a Blu-ray player for my PC as well but I still prefer the quality of the HD DVD discs over Blu-ray so far. It's weird but there was 'something' that made the HD DVD look more like a theater film as opposed to just the extreme clarity of the Blu-ray discs. Both are fantastic though so I had to have both.

I have the 360 add on drive but use it on my computer mostly because of sound and resolutions I can get out of the computer that I can't do on the 360 (since you can't freely select specific resolutions w/o a VGA cable). I may mount it permantly in the PC but I have to find that convertor cable first for now it's USB all the way.

I'm LOVING the prices too now that all the bickering is done and over with. They were cheap when they first came out but now they're sick!

I've got mine running through an HDMI > DVI converter to my 1680x1050 22" Samsung LCD. I was gonna get a 1080P Sharp Aquos, but nobody wants to buy my stuff :cry:

Kei · Jun 28, 2008

Nice, I've been thinking about getting a Sharp as well (or a Samsung) but I'm thinking I want one of the 120Hz models after spending a little time messing with one. I don't know what I'm gonna do just yet but either way it can only get more beautiful.

Right now I use everything (360 games & PC w/HD DVD+Blu-Ray) on my 32" LCD tv at 1360*768 resolution as it's native for the monitor. Everything is just gorgeous right now but I'd like to do one better especially for my 360 since it's stuck at 1280*720p or 1920*1080i using HDMI as I can't do 1080p.

I'm trying to get my refresh rates right with HDMI on my PC as we speak but I can only select 30Hz with 1080i for some reason? Any ideas...

None whatsoever. I went HDMI > DVI and set the output of the 360 to 1920x1200 and it worked. I think my monitor's just downscaling it to 1680x1050. Looks great nonetheless, and I don't have to spend hundreds of dollars!

i started a media PC clubhouse and your question was answered there - its common for HDMI ports to not included EDID information. Most likely, you need to try other HDMI ports. only 1 of the three HDMI inputs on my samsung screen supports 1360x768, as ridiculous as that may sound.
