無需要咁快買!!!
各大電視台都未轉播...
絕對同意,歐洲先發展,美國又向吾同制式發展,即係好似以前pal/ntsc一樣。美國又逼日本用佢制式,日本當然吾肯,怕俾人牽住鼻走,又自已發展新制式。
至於香港,當然係想跟中國路線啦,但中國又未夠富裕發展hdtv,香港無用官員又點敢自已定制式呀!到依家都係無話用實那種制式。只係定了所謂大方向。
所以如果買display還可以,買hdtv就絕對吾好啦!到時隨時乜電台都收吾到。作者: cwhs 時間: 2006-1-23 12:57 AM

Sony Bravia 82" HD LCD
Tokyo, Jan.5, 2006 - Sony Corporation today announced the development of an LCD TV with the world's first color range (*1) “xvYCC” (*2) compliant high resolution signal processing system, which enables a wider color reproduction capability of TVs. This technology will be developed in conjunction with an 82 inch LCD TV, being one of the largest in the world, and its prototype will be unveiled for the first time at the 2006 International CES in Las Vegas, USA.
The color range “xvYCC” is the International standard for wide color space of video applications, and was accepted by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) in October 2005, and will be issued in January 2006. This standard will expand the current color data range by approximately 1.8 times more based on “Munsell Color Cascade” (*3), and it was successfully reached due to the newly developed high resolution signal processing system. Video cameras complying with this standard will be able to record a color variation that is very close to what human eyes can recognize, and TVs complying with this standard will be able to reproduce visual images almost in the same picture quality as it was recorded. In addition, LCD TVs will be able to show the detailed color variation of movie scenes, the different shades of a color, e.g. the red color of a paprika or a tomato, as well as numerous color tones of petal.
This LCD TV incorporates the so-called “TRILUMINOS”, the backlight that uses the LED with three independent colors (red, green, and blue), resulting in a further enhancement of“xvYCC”. Furthermore, for the first time, the 82 inch LCD TV features a full HD panel (1,920 X 1,080 pixels), ensuring a superior picture quality.
Sony promotes the concept of “Full HD World”, as it enables consumers to enjoy a wider variety of high resolution video sources at home via digital high definition broadcast, HDV-ready digital camcorder and new optical discs such as Blu-ray. This “xvYCC” standard realizes the reproduction of truly natural and high resolution picture images in a wider color range, which represents a step further towards the new display era.
Pioneer 50" PRO-FHD1
CES is turning into Attack of the 50-inch TVs. Pioneer claims its new $10,000 PRO-FHD1 display, positioned as a companion to the company's Blu-ray player, has pixels 35% smaller than previous models. It's so new we couldn't get any decent press photos, but we snapped this shot at their press conference. Specs: 1920 x 1080 progressive, built-in upconversion and HDMI.作者: cwhs 時間: 2006-1-23 01:08 AM

XBOX 360 HD DVD
Xbox 360: Blu-ray Disc Drive an Option
Speaking to ITMedia of Japan, Peter Moore, corporate vice president of the Interactive Entertainment Business in the Entertainment and Devices Division of Microsoft Corp., said that if HD-DVD loses the next-generation DVD war, Microsoft could still develop a Blu-ray Disc drive for the Xbox 360.
Since either case the drive will be external, Microsoft has the option to choose either format. As of yet, Microsoft will only develop an HD-DVD external drive since that’s the format the software giant is backing, but if HD-DVD fails to impose as the standard for next-generation DVD, Blu-ray Disc is an option, at least for Microsoft and the Xbox 360.
The PS3 has a built-in Blu-ray Disc drive, so for PlayStation fans, it better be the format that wins the war. Otherwise, they’ll be required to purchase an external drive to play HD-DVD movies. Xbox 360 owners have been the brunt of jokes from PS3 backers, due to the console requiring an external drive for HD-DVD movies. Only time will tell who has the last laugh. In any case, the next-generation DVD war continues.
External HD DVD Drive for Xbox 360
Highlighting key consumer products such as Xbox 360™ and offering the first broad demonstration of the consumer features of Windows Vista™, Microsoft Corp. Chairman and Chief Software Architect Bill Gates showed how the company is delivering on its vision for a digital lifestyle where devices, services and applications work together seamlessly. In his 10th annual keynote address at the 2006 International Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, Gates demonstrated how Microsoft® Windows Vista, Xbox 360, new mobile devices and the emerging wave of software-based services will deliver more connected and richly personalized experiences for consumers.
In his keynote, Gates said that the consumer electronics industry is poised to deliver a quantum leap forward in rich, interactive, high-definition experiences.
“Technology has revolutionized how we listen to music, watch TV, play games, communicate, and manage and share personal information,” he said. “In the years ahead, further exciting innovations will unify the software, hardware and services in people’s lives, offering them even richer, more engaging and deeply connected experiences.”
Just a month after the global launch of the new Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system, Gates filter-004ed the product’s strong momentum in delivering high-definition hardware, games and digital entertainment experiences. Xbox 360 is on track to be the fastest-selling video game console ever, forecast to ship between 4.5 million and 5.5 million units worldwide by the end of June 2006.
Gates noted that Xbox 360 has also become a powerful application for high-definition television, adding that nine out of 10 Xbox 360 owners currently own or intend to purchase a high-definition television set.* He announced that more than 50 new high-definition Xbox 360™ games will be available by June 2006.
HD DVD for Xbox 360
Building on Xbox 360 leadership in high-definition experiences, the company announced plans to deliver a new Xbox 360 external HD DVD drive in 2006. The new drive will offer millions of Xbox 360 owners the ability to easily enjoy HD DVD movies and will provide consumers with even more choices for experiencing high-definition content, in either physical or digital form.
Using Xbox 360 and the Xbox Live service today, consumers are already able to access high-definition entertainment such as Xbox Live Arcade titles, game demos and high-definition movie trailers. Consumers can also use their Xbox 360 system to access high-definition television and movies from their Windows XP-based Media Center PC.
Gates’ keynote also showcased the momentum behind Xbox Live, announcing that more than half of all Xbox 360 owners are already connected to the online games and entertainment service, which boasts a worldwide community of more than 2 million members.
He demonstrated Electronic Arts Inc.’s forthcoming EA SPORTS™ “Fight Night Round 3,” scheduled to be available in February 2006, and announced that a free, playable high-definition demo of the game is now available at the Xbox Live Marketplace, a one-stop digital download center where consumers can access high-definition games, music and movie content from leading industry partners.
Xbox 360 Might Incorporate HD DVD Drive
Today, at a joint news conference in Tokyo, Microsoft and Toshiba announced they will strengthen their joint development of PCs and consumer electronics goods and will work together on HD DVD technology.
At the press conference, Microsoft Chairman Bill Gates revealed that the Xbox 360 video may incorporate in the future the next-generation DVD format developed by Toshiba.
“The initial shipments of Xbox 360 will be based on today's DVD format,” Gates confirmed. “We are looking at whether future versions of Xbox 360 will incorporate an additional capability of an HD DVD player or something else.”
The incorporation of HD DVD technology would put the Xbox 360 on par with the PlayStation 3, at least in what regards to optical storage.
The next-generation videogame and entertainment system from Sony will use Blu-ray Disc technology, a competing next-generation DVD format.
A single-layer Blu-ray Disc can hold up to 25 gigabytes of data and a double-layer Blu-ray Disc will hold up to 50 gigabytes of data.
Although Blu-ray Disc can technology hold more data per disc than HD DVD, the lower manufacturing costs and compatibility with the current DVD format makes HD DVD more consumer-friendly.
We'll have more on the possible incorporation of HD DVD technology to the Xbox 360 as it develops.作者: cwhs 時間: 2006-1-23 09:00 PM
