I think Blu-Ray might be promoted here for two reasons, the standard allows a higher constant bit rate because it's running at a far higher frame rate. I think most downloads are 24 & 25fps, to do the same, they need to encode 48 & 50 fps progressive to get the same effect as film, otherwise it will look like 12fps strobing. Doubling the data that needs to be encoded also means cutting the effective run time on a disc. I think Mitsubishi is on the Blu-Ray consortium as well.]]>Aug 24th 2007 7:08PMhttp://www.engadgethd.com/2007/08/24/mitsubishi-working-on-3d-blu-ray-players-displays/http://www.engadgethd.com/2007/08/24/mitsubishi-working-on-3d-blu-ray-players-displays/
Having now seen both the Kodak/RealD and Dolby solutions for 3D Cinema, I personally think its a lot further off for the home than that. Even in a Cinema its still a bit 'gimmicky', the U2 3D being a great example, your eye is drawn to the waving hands in the foreground not to Bono who seems a bit distant further back in the shot.

Watching the footage without the polarised glasses resulted in little if any change to the image at all. ]]>Aug 26th 2007 8:20PM
