i can understand your sentiment, but isn't that basically ALL tv sets?
I'm only aware of 2 HDTVs that take native 1080p in (HP DLP and there's
one LCD, iirc). Top of the line Sony SXRD ($10k) doesn't. And 1080p
is not even quite "complete" as a format, is it? IIRC, currently 1080p
exists only in 24,25,30 fps and not the usual 50 or 60.
Without going into yet another rant on AACS et al, I'll say that I'm
normally an early adopter and i have a 50" 720p DLP TV and I EAGERLY
anticipate a hi-res DVD-type format b/c there current DVDs do not (to
me) look that good and the flaw are extremely noticeable on a 50"
screen. Now, whether h.264 is the solution or whether mpeg-2 at 480p
with higher bitrate could eliminate the artifacts that bother me is
something i donut no (or if there's another solution).
btw, has anyone watched any HD WMVs? output to a big tv? if so, how
do they look?
