I wonder if this would be for their cinemas only?

Or is this an April fools joke?

You only have one set of theatres that can 'play' Dolby Vision: Dolby's theatres equipped with laser projectors, you weren't ever gonna get Samsung Cinema LED screens doing DV.

The dialogue between Samsung and Dolby mentioned above is for the audio side of things only IMO, seeing as Dolby are less provincial about Atmos and want it to be as ubiquitous as their prior cinema sound formats. That it couldn't be worked out is interesting but not surprising, given that the Cinema LED can't surely be perforated (as per a regular cinema projection screen) so naturally they would need alternate arrangements for the front speakers.

Brilliant! Wish the cat next door would meet this fate when he attempts to jump on my car and sleep on the roof a couple of nights each week. Muddy prints on my hood, windshield and roof EVERY time.

Just make sure those cat prints aren’t from one of ‘Mama Mo’s’ cubs…. https://www.smithsonianchannel.com/s...d-me/0/3457437

Wow. Lots of discussion about Oppo Digital today and thee announcement related to its Ultra HD Blu-ray player(s). Well, I guess I won’t be needed for translation duties anymore, when ray0414 posts a warehouse stacked box porn pic - https://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread...t#post12943937

So, all the commotion makes me wonder….how inspired really are the Oppo ownership? Will they be gathering to celebrate a 50th Anniversary, like so - http://www.theamherstnewstimes.com/n...on-motorcycles

but for Oppo, in the year 2054?

Just checked. Paul, the link works fine for me. The only thing denied is saving the magazine offline as a pdf (which one can normally do as a subscriber).

follow-up to ^……or C-LED as some prefer to say/write. Sony has plans too….https://pro.sony/ue_US/press/bob-raposo-head-of-theater, other than for the movie screening on the Crystal LED in June at the Google Event Center which I mentioned months ago.
