Hi friends,

I hv bought a new Plasma TV. I want to see some bluray stuff to check its HD quality. Pls tell me how to download bluray content from net for free and see it via a DVD player.

Regards
Rohit
 
if ur dvd player supports mkv format and has an hdmi port...then download blu ray rips using torrents and play it on ur dvd.

if it supports only divx then download and convert it to divx format and play it on dvd......converting proper blu ray to divx takes hell lot of tym and the movie can turnout to b more than 20gb after converting..

and when i say proper blu ray rips...it means it should be

- 720p must have a minimum bitrate of 4000 kbps or

- 1080p must have a minimum bitrate of 8000 kbps

Micro Rips(i.e the rips which are arnd 350 gb to 1gb which say they are hd rips) are not HD and will not giv u desired output.
 
@v.na5h on wht basis ur saying microrips are the best???if watched on 17" monitor then probably yes.

the guy wants to chk the HD quality on his plasma and the microrips are not classified as HD....so u wont get the req output and wen these are played on 40" u will c scattered pixels
 
I guess I have the same Plasma at my place.. I use it with HDMI and connect it directly to my PC.. watch all my movies off my PC on TV.. without any glitch.. but it does not look as the demo you see in the showrooms.. for that you need a bluray player.. or the 50GB BR Rip.

and I don't understand why do you wanna use DVD player to watch the content.. simply download it and view it in Media Center or VLC player..

search for 1080p in any torrent search engine.. download the movie.. it will take some time to download as the files are big in size.. I'd say anything above 6GB is true full HD movie.. check the aspect ratio usually 720ps are not even 500ps.. just by upping the bit rate does not make them HD content.. a proper full HD movie is somewhere around 14-15 GB..

just connect ur PC to ur TV with HDMI cable and pplay the movie in ur PC

or use a pendrive to see it

just got a 32' LCD TV and tested it with pendrive

it support mp4 format with x264 codec .....

if u download a mkv movie 99% it will be in x264 codec and u just have to convert it to mp4 using avidemux

NOTE : dont reincode when converting

Just connect your CPU with the Plasma. It just like connecting a new monitor. And plus you "can't" get FULL HD Movies for free. Its just not legal and you are not suppose to ask about it in TE. However you can get movie clips for free. If you convert HD movies to DVD quality you won't get the desired output for sure. So digitally download HD Movies and watch by connecting your PLASMA to the pc or get a blu-ray player and buy blu-ray discs. It should cost around 10k.
 
Your DVD player is no longer qualified to match your HD TV, throw it. It is impossible for DVD player to playback 1080p quality movie. Divx you might say? it is not qualified as good HD source even if it is in 1080p format and I doubt the DVD player will output that resolution. Good quality 1080p movie should be about the same size as the original bluray disc (25Gb). What Kratoli said 40Gb for 720p and 90Gb for 1080p is without basis and out of topic. Even dual layer blu-ray disc is only 50Gb and most movies use only 1 layer.

If Blu-ray player is not practical, connect your PC to the TV is the best solution. Depends on the distance between your PC and TV, you may need expensive HDMI cable if the distance is above 20 metres traveling through the ceiling (don't try cheapo long HDMI cable, I have tried that and experienced intermittent signal loss). Another alternative is to buy a media player which is very common nowadays; it supports a lot of formats and is able to output 1080p video and fairly portable.

1 question, is your TV full HD (1080p) or half HD (720p)? TV makers are very smart to cheat consumer by simply put the word "HD" without specifying 720p for non "full HD" TV. If your TV is 720p then the DVD player is still able to serve you well.
