What's a " Live Action " Blu-Ray ?

Hi ,

What's a Live Action Blu ? Does it mean that it's an Interactive Blu Ray where you have to react with your Remote ? Like the QTE ( Quick Time Event ) in Video Games ?

Thank's .

Sorry my english is laaaaaaaaaaame , I'm french

I haven't heard of Live Action Blu, perhaps you are talking about BD Live. BD Live is where you can download content from the internet on the player.

People use the term "live action" to distinguish between regular movies (live action) and animated movies.

As pacificvibes said, if you're talking about a term associated with blu-ray, it's probably BD-Live that you're thinking of.

Please don't use Sony's poor excuse for BD-Live to illustrate that functionality. How about a nice screenshot from Sleeping Beauty's Live features?

Sorry, I don't have Sleeping Beauty.

If you have it, post it!

I haven't used BD-Live yet, either. I'd like to see some good screenshots if anyone has them.

Heh, I don't know about "good" but here are some shots I took to send to friends. I edited out my username in some of them.

Most of the functionality so far has centered around trivia games. Disney and Universal have added chatting and some other stuff. Some of Disney's stuff, like the Calendar, isn't active yet. Lionsgate provides a MoLog feature that essentially lets you add comments to scenes in the movie and submit it for others to watch. Oh, Disney's weather display is always off for me so I'm not sure why that is. Time of day usually seems right (the display changes to night as it does in real life). The Sony pick is showing the trivia game tournaments being hosted. You can play single player or multiplayer and in multiplayer join a tournament or host one.

The included shots are from Sleeping Beauty (Disney), Men In Black (Sony), The Incredible Hulk (Universal), Transformers (Paramount) and Saw IV (Lionsgate).
