Do you guys ever have to wait for this thing to buffer? I have a friend that got one and it seems to buffer a fair amount, sometimes for an extended time (30-45 seconds). I have NEVER had to wait for a movie buffer on my EVA9150's, and I think that is due to the built in hard drive.

Just curious what your experiences with that are.

Thanks.

EDIT: Typo

Buffers for a few seconds. Never more than 5-10

Is this just at the beginning of the movie or does it happen during the movie as well?

If it happens during the movie that would be really annoying...

This week meaning today right? You wouldn't make us wait would you? :)

Then I have to edit it and make fun of Cody and I heart C4 as well. These things take time :)

Can you hear that? It's evil laughter combined with the silent sound of your Control4 system remotely crashing.....

Up and running! DVD's upscaled look 89% as good as what I am seeing with BD

So far I am very impressed.

How are your movies ripped?

They are ISO's

And my Onkyo receiver upscales it. Movies access pretty darn quick too.!

So does the media player support ISO files then? I thought I read somewhere in this thread that it doesn't. Thanks for the clarification.

It does, it just doesn't support the menu navigation.

It doesn't support bluray .ISO though' date=' right?[/quote']

I'm asking around - whoever has one, try this:

Rip the Blu-ray to .iso using MPEG2 for video AC3 or DTS for audio.

I don't have anything handy to rip BD. Upload one to a FTP and I will try it

You don't work for the RIAA do you? :D

(Isn't that the company that cracks down on people breaking encryption and/or bootlegging videos?)

You could zip it down a little bit couldn't you? I uploaded a 42 gig file last week and it didn't take too long.
