1080p Movies

[larry55]

I DOWNLOAD A MOVIE IN 1080P ON MGM DEMAND .I CHECK MY TV IS COMPATIBLE TO WATCH 1080 P PROGRAMS. WHEN I START THE MOVIE ALL I GET IS THE SOUND AND NO VIDEO. MY BLU RAY WORK FINE WITH THIS SONY TV. I HAVE THE HDMI INPUT . I HAVE SWAP THE HDMI CABLE. NEED HELP.

Sometimes, TVs with 1080p have issues. I do not understand what it means but there is 1080p @ 24, 1080p @60, 1080p @120, etc. My LG TV doesn't have a problem with any of them, but sometimes 1080p @ 24 makes my Samsung do exactly what you're describing. I don't know why or what I do differently when it works! Sorry, I wasn't much help but I am curious about this, too.

all caps, someone is MAD

j/k, what model tv do you have?

This is usually a sign that your TV does not support 1080p/24 which is what DirecTV uses for movies. Many older HDTVs only support 1080p/60. But it does not matter. Just watch the movie in 1080i, you will get the same quality. Short explanation - the moves are filmed at 24 fps and so 1080i contains all the same info as 1080p/24 or 1080p/60.

MGM on demand? Not in my guide.

go to demand and click on movies and scroll and you will see MGM AND MOVIE IN 1080P. I download Behind enemy line 1080p.

Its also not gonna be 1080p/60 or 120 from Directv, only 1080p/24. There is actually no such thing as 1080p/120 AFAIK, at least not in tv and movie.

go to demand and click on movies and scroll and you will see MGM AND MOVIE IN 1080P. I download Behind enemy line 1080p.

I looked last night and didn't see MGM available. Are you getting it on channel 1567? My on demand doesn't even show movies as an option.

 

[larry55]

click on my Directv. click on demand and it show movies and click on action/adventure .

MGM doesn't have its own on demand section. It scattered in the different categories (like "movies") among other channels.

 

[raoul5788]

I don't have a listing for action/adventure. What software version are you running?

Edit: I see it now, under movies. There are some MGM titles, but they are on channel 1000, so MGM isn't available as a channel, just some of their movies.
