experiencing the same as well.

The GotG set that's on the main downloads page. Just wanted to check them out as I've not had much time lately to spend really messing around. I've downloaded the dts-X bumper at least 3 times (sorry for the bandwidth but it just never worked at all).

As an aside, for most of your video content, specifically your CV branded stuff, you should upload versions to YouTube for easy preview even if you slap huge watermarks across them. Will save your site the download bandwidth for those of us curious to see them but not sure if we actually want to download the highest quality.

And you need more info on all your videos. Resolution, aspect, 3D and audio format. I don't know which THX trailers are full 1080p with HD audio and which are lossy and so on. Again, saves your bandwidth.

I know I'm sure this is all still WIP on your end.

Bandwidth doesn't matter at all. We've got plenty now to go around. I'm reuploading the DTS:X bumper and GotG deck now. Let me know what else is coming across corrupt.

Cool. I edited my previous post with the following notes as well. Just some quick observations I've had.

Will save your site the download bandwidth for those of us curious to see them but not sure if we actually want to download the highest quality.

And you need more info on all your videos. Resolution, aspect, 3D and audio format. I don't know which THX trailers are full 1080p in 3D with HD audio and which are lossy and so on. Again, saves your bandwidth.

I know I'm sure this is all still WIP on your end.

I second this.

I third this! The videos are all up on YouTube, but I've been lazy about putting them in the descriptions because I'll be re-uploading them there. The videos on YouTube have the old logo embedded in them. As far as the Audio Format Bumpers go, I completely agree. The downside is that the community software we use basically gives us two choices... the way it is now, or individual files that you have to click through and download. What I'm thinking about doing is putting a table in the file description that lists all of that information. How does that sound?

Hi, i love your content. Could you do a spanish version of your videos? I could translate the text and you only have to change in your video software. What do you think?

A listing of the videos, specs and proper file name would be great. Then users can look through and see what they want, what they already have and what they don't want. I downloaded 3 THX trailers that are all less than 1080 with lossy audio that I didn't really want. Saves everyone time and bandwidth.

How's work on the app progressing?

I got some Molten Lava bumpers from emumovies and was wondering if you did those as well as they were on the same page as others that I recognized. If so any plans on doing a Trivia one?

Also I just checked and I was able to successfully download the DTS:X 1.0.0 file that I believe the others above where having issues with...I used Chrome and Time Warner if that helps.

Sure we can.

So I was putting the list together and I started thinking... When we convert these, the audio is passthru so that's lossless, but the video was not processed that way to save some space. How important to you all is lossless video? I can convert them that way, but the file size quadruples in a lot of cases.

While those weren't me, they were done by Circo who is associated with CinemaVision. We'll be uploading a bunch of new videos, and trivia video bumpers will be included. Excellent news! I re-uploaded the DTS:X bumper after hearing about the issues.

For myself, the video being in a semi-compressed 1080p isn't going to hurt anything. I'm not watching the audio bumpers to see tiny beads of sweat in perfect pores on someone's face. So long as the video looks great still going lossy isn't an issue.

The point of these bumpers is to briefly showcase the audio and for that the audio needs to be fully unaltered and uncompressed. Otherwise what's the point, right?

Now of course many videos aren't native 1080p or even HD audio. I don't think I used any like that in CE if I could help it. Even if the movie that follows isn't full HD.

Not sure how others will feel on the video front or even the audio. Just what I'd hope for and want to build into my system. Till they day 500 terabyte hard drives cost peanuts and can be downloaded in under 30 seconds.

I'm with Dave on this. I don't mind if video is not 1080p uncompressed but audio needs to be what it's advertising.

I think audio passthru is important to demonstrate the audio format in question, so I've never altered that. I've tried to sweet spot the video quality which doesn't affect the resolution, but do affect the bitrate of the video. The difference in quality is minimal, and the space saving is massive.

Sounds good to me. I figure you can keep the 1080p but compress it so long as the audio it tip-top. When the dts=HD bumper plays in CE now you most certainly know it!
