Exclamation New Chips Enable High-Def Recording on (REGULAR) DVDs

http://news.yahoo.com/s/pcworld/2007...D8HHls8n.SxLEF

Yes, this article says that MPEG4 AVC can hold 2 hours of HD content on a regular DVD!

The artifacting must be pretty.

Note this from the article:

"While the enhanced DVD technology is being offered in new-generation machines from Toshiba, Panasonic and Sony, it remains to be seen whether they'll turn up in cheaper, DVD-only recorders. For now, Toshiba seems to be the only company contemplating this. It said it will watch market reaction and then make a decision."



Toshiba's attitude is: "Anything other than Blu-ray" Since they get royalties from SD DVDs, I guess it isn't surprising they would consider recording HD on reg DVDs.

Toshiba's motto should be: "We'll throw anything against the wall to see if it sticks".
