Blu-ray going 1440p and 50Mbs + bitrate ? - Blu-ray Forum

kevon27 · 02-29-2008, 04:17 PM

Bluray specs says it can do upto 50Mbs bitrate. Is this limit due to storage space or is it due to the capabilities of the decoders?
Second. Can bluray do 1440p (hdmi 1.3a) in it's current state if the 100 and 200 gigs discs come out?

The reason that the movies never get up to bitrates that high is because of all the extras and different language audio channels everyone wants. What people don't realize is that if there were less extras-the movie could be a higher quality.

Totally agree. This is a very important point and something that people really need to be educated on.

yeah i think extras are a waste of space never once looked at them i would much rather have better pq and sq and no extras

I'd be more than happy to settle for that, if your worried about cost then you must have been a red ant

Especially the force you to watch preview in the beginning of the movie. (Some will let you skip it but won't let you go directly to the main menu)
I hate that. Wish they got rid of it.

I agree and i never did interacting with dvds
PQ is what all that matters

Scrapanatchi · 03-01-2008, 09:40 PM

I think LCD will be 1440p soon, just have in mind these tv's would output true 1080p motion res...

I would rather have the extras then the marginal difference you are referring to.

Thats why they will release blurays with 2 discs. One for the film and one for the extras

Actually 9 bits is 2.0 the levels of 8 bits. 16 bits is 256 times the levels of 8 bits.

What with all the talk on here about 1440P, I was just sitting back a while ago thinking about 1080 (I/P) and what was being proposed a few years ago as far as HDTV was concerned.

Japan proposed the Hi-Vision system which was 1125 lines, and broadcast this using an analogue compression system called MUSE. So this system had an additional 45 lines of resolution. They even launched a LaserDisc system onto the market using this format.

Europe proposed the HD-MAC system (which never took off) and this was a 1250 line system (twice PAL). So this system had an additional 170 lines of resolution.

Both used a similar aspect ratio, though I believe Hi-Vision was actually 5:3. I wonder what made the world plump for 1080 lines???
