Yeah I have it too. Pretty boring flick. Amazingly small file size and not great quality IMO. Does the toshiba HD DVD player play the WMVHD file?
 
I do not have a HD-DVD player. Just thought it was cool that a porn movie was the first to be out in HD-DVD.

My wife loves Tera Patrick, so she has almost every movie she is in.

Its been out long before HD DVD existed. Its not in HD DVD VC-1 format, its WMVHD (at least the bittorrent version is) and will play on the computer. And if stripped of DRM it will play on the Avel linkplayer2 etc.

This disc will not play on the Toshiba HD-DVD players.
Thats what I thought and its really ashame. SO I guess the Toshiba wont play mpeg2 media files burned to DVD or WMVHD movies. SIlly if you ask me since you pay a high price for that thing and it is basically a computer. :rolleyes:

High price? You're joking right?
 
FYI: yes, it is possible to burn short HD videos on standard DVD-Rs and play them on HD-A1. This has been done.

Is there a thread on it yet? Does +R DL work?
What about streaming Hd to it over its ethernet connection?

Yes, here is a good thread about this at AVS. It has step-by-step instructions on how to master your own HD-DVD videos using Ulead DVD Movie Factory and burn them to DVD -/+R media and play them on Toshiba HD DVD players.

The players claim to support such capability, but I haven't seen any real demonstration yet.

If I can stream my HD mpeg2 files and play Mpeg2 HD Dual layer DVD's then I want one. But no commercial WMVHD disks play? Is that a DRM issue?

I don't know. I wonder if this is something that can be supported later via a firmware upgrade.

I wonder if anyone has converted or can convert one of the divX or Atom films HD clips to a HD DVD playable disc...

I attempted some conversions from Mpeg2 to WMVHD before. Trust me it takes hours or days depending on your computer. No way do I want to attempt any reencoding of anything. Its for the birds.

That RCA model you posted info on says something about windows media files. I wonder if that means WMVHD???
