Confusion over high-definition TV

Confusion over high-definition TV 03/22/2005 03:15 PM
According to the BBC, just because a TV set is being sold as HD does not mean that it actually is. The problem stems from these sets being sold as HD without the needed adapter to make this happen. While some people may know to ask about this, many more do not realize that is can be an issue….

Microsoft's next-generation operating system, Longhorn, will be compatible with high-definition DVD, the company's Japanese unit said Monday. The show of support from Microsoft is considered a boost for the next-generation, blue-laser DVD technology, which is promoted by Japanese conglomerates NEC and Toshiba. Blue light, with a shorter wavelength than the red laser used in conventional DVD recorders, can read and store data at the higher densities needed for high-definition recordings.

RoomLink VGP-MR100, updated for High
Definition 01/05/2005 03:55 PM

Keeping with the fresh announcements of new Vaio desktops and laptops today, Sony has also announced a new version of their "RoomLink" network media player, the VGP-MR100. Because the RoomLink requires Vaio Media Server to be installed on a the host PC, users without a Vaio still seem to be up the creek without a paddle; but those of you who happen to own one will likely enjoy its seamless integration.

Connecting by either plain old Ethernet cable or 802.11b/g, the new RoomLink has added support for playback of HD content (up to 1080i), and now also features compliance with DLNA guidelines (DLNA, "Digital Living Network Alliance," is an industry effort to standardize media communications across home networks). Sony has most likely chosen to throw in the HD support because of the release of their consumer-level HD camera, the HDR-FX1.

Besides these two new features, it looks to be the same RoomLink — it still plays MPEG-1/2/4 (and DivX) and WMV video, ATRAC3 and MP3 audio, and your standard run of image formats.

Lifelike Ultra High Definition Video

Lifelike Ultra High Definition Video 06/03/2004 10:20 AM

Hey, who told the Times' Circuits section about something interesting? You made us miss a incisive column they were going to write about why spam is bad how some people like the iPod. Instead, we got this profile of Japanese broadcaster NHK's work to develop Ultra High Definition Video (UHDV), the 7,680 by 4,320 pixel resolution television standard that aims to hit 'as good as really there' levels of visual fidelity (you know, the kind of quality so good that it makes people puke from watching it. The awesome kind, I'm saying.) Take that massive resolution, add a 60 frame per second refresh and 22 channels of surround sound ("10 speakers at ear level, 9 above and 3 below, with another 2 for low frequency effects") and you end up with video files that end up taking up 3.5 terabytes of storage for just 18 minutes of footage. Don't expect UHDV anytime soon, of course. NHK started developing HDTV, which is just now taking hold, in the 1960s. (Thanks, Jeffrey!)
