Anyone Know What Resolution Is Next? - Blu-ray Forum

dereksworl · 01-21-2008, 08:39 PM

I know 1080p hasn't even hit hard yet but i was surfing the net recently and came across this tv(sorry no link, if i find it agian will post) that already is capable of displaying a resolution higher than 1080p(2070x2100 something). anyone know of this?

Well not NEXT per say but the usual step up mentioned after 1080p is 2K and 4K resolution mate. i.e 2048 and 4096 lines wiki-link

~10-15 years for early adoption? The bandwidth and storage requirements for 4K are well above and beyond 1K. And face it, even the 50G blu-ray discs are barely big enough for a tier-0 2K transfer.

For 4K, I think you'd be looking at at 200G-400G discs depending on compression and ~8x players assuming blu-ray continues naturally past the prototype 200G discs. Regardless, there are definitely some major media, hardware, and cost reduction hurdles to overcome before 4K is consumer-ready.

Edit: Fixed numbers.. apparently 4K refers to horizontal pixels.. we already have (more or less) 2K in that case (1920x1080).

Gamers are already past 2k, but not at 4k yet. My Screen is better then 1080p but not the top of the gaming line. I have 1920X1200 and love it. Top gamer screens are something like 2500X1500, rounded.

That type of resolution won't come until about 10-15 years. However I don't have solid proof but it wouldn't be fair to consumers if it came out very quickly.

air_max · 01-21-2008, 11:53 PM

OLED displays will come out before that, LCD and plasma will be a thing of the past

chnandler_bong · 01-22-2008, 12:02 AM

I think it's going to be 1440p (2560x1440), which follows the pattern that is there now.

720 + 360 = 1080 + 360 = 1440

480p doesn't count, it's not the same aspect ratio.

That's a mathematicians stab.

thanks for the info guys

Kirsty_Mc · 01-22-2008, 12:08 AM

I say if higher resolutions do eventually make it to the market, then 16:9 should be superceeded by something better. 2:1 minimum would reduce the size of out black bars somewhat, and make use of the additional lines. Ideally a 2.35:1 screen which would eliminate the need for matting (ie. Panavision would be full screen).

emacs · 01-22-2008, 12:14 AM

the HDMI 1.3 spec supports 1600p video streams.

can the PS3 output 1600p??????

Upping the resolution without taking care of the master tapes which will be used to make digital 1600P copies is pointless.

Upping resolution helps when your making the screens bigger, but unless your going 100" and above the current resolutions are fine.

Even gaming doesn't require that kind of resolution. There is only so much your going to get out of this hobby, and adding an extra 2% of detail isn't going to set the world alight.

Saw this...

Raf008 · 01-22-2008, 05:26 PM

WOW

7,680 × 4,320 pixels, must be amazing!!
and what about this 22.2 channels !!! Sounds great!

DrasticPlastic · 01-22-2008, 05:28 PM

I don't see why we would need higher resolution than 1080p. Your eyes can only take in soo much, and you would have to be sitting only a few feet away from a very large screen to take full advantage.
