Playing HD in NZ - Comparison

[psycik]

hi, just thought I'd post, I've been collecting some HD clips and now lately been recording some, notably Underbelly from last night as both analogue and DVB-T.

PLayed them back on me 26" sammy tv today, OMG looks really good. I have a normal tv in the lounge so hadn't really done a proper comparison before - and with the popcorn (as we call it - the wife likes the name) Its a good platform for taking to someones house to demo HD material....

What DVB-T card are you using for freeview?

[psycik]

hauppauge HVR3000 bought it for the satellite though, dvb-t is just a bonus......

[stustunz]

are you only playing back the dvb-t recordings on your popcorn hour?
if playing back through pc what are you using for decoders etc

[psycik]

Not really doing much with HD at all, my lounge tv doesn't take HD.

But yes I have played some from gbpvr and I'm using Powerdvd 8.

could you fast forward rewind etc
did it play back ok on pc?

[psycik]

Not sure, I really didn't play with it much since my video card is a x550 and I have a 28" crt tv there wasn't much point.

I playback FreeviewHD recordings just fine here, and can skip back/forwards fine.
