Imports Links: Exclusive Titles and Suggestions:
[quote name='Sporadic']Anybody interested in imports, EzyDVD is doing a 2 for 50 (or 25 a pop) sale for Universal titles.

http://www.ezydvd.com.au/promo.zml?pid=647&ddat=1&dsal=1&dper=1

Import exclusive titles include

Rambo 1-3
The Holiday
Total Recall

And there is also non-combo versions of

Children Of Men
Smokin' Aces
American Werewolf In London
Miami Vice

for you combo haters.

The really nice thing is that the AUD is weaker than the US dollar. So I was able to grab Rambo: First Blood for only 27.23 AUD (US $22.39)[/quote]
 
[quote name='xcoax']I don't think this has been posted anywhere else in the thread. CC has some of the wal-mart movies for $13.99

http://entertainment.circuitcity.com...aspx?Store=903

12 Monkeys
Backdraft
Blood Diamond
Casino
The Last Samurai
Unforgiven

Its online only, but if you buy more than $24 you can get free shipping.[/quote]

the link doesnt work. i also saw a couple on the cc website for 13.99 scatttered around. i couldnt find a complete list though.
 
went to walmart, didnt see the A2 anywhere on display, went to the counter and asked if they had it , and it was behind the counter hidden under a bag, told my sister to expect to see a package in her name so i could take advantage of the 5 free a second time, feels good getting about 225 dollars worth of stuff for about a hundred, but im sure there'll be another killer deal before long
 
[quote name='Vulcan2422']So any luck with that question i asked? Anybody else using HDMI to DVI?[/QUOTE]

I think the HDMI to DVI would look better. It's ranked about the same as a reg HDMI cable which both are ranked above Component Cables.

animemaniac14 - I am lead to believe you might have some type of disorder. You last 10 plus posts have all been about the rebates. Your a very paranoid person :D
 
[quote name='guyver2077']how can i get the a2 to output dolby digital instead of dts.. for some reason my audio receive lags when dts is used...[/QUOTE]

For stuff that is encoded with Dolby Digital Plus/True you are better off having the player downconvert it to DTS than Dolby if your surround sound reciever does not have HDMI on it. DTS is going to retain a bit more of the original audio quality over standard Dolby which is always helpful.
 
[quote name='lmz00']Is there a way to cancel orders placed on Best Buy's Business website?[/QUOTE]

pretty sure you have to call. Why do you ask?
 
[quote name='nativetongue88']the link doesnt work. i also saw a couple on the cc website for 13.99 scatttered around. i couldnt find a complete list though.[/QUOTE]

From the main page, just click movies and then about halfway down the page theres a row of five gray boxes, one of which says $13.99 HD-DVDs.

ME?! WHAT?! PARANOID?! I AM NOT...DO YOU THINK IM PARANOID...DOES HE? DO I? EVIL GOVT PLOTS! CIA! RALPH NADER FOR PRESIDENT! GAH!


so seriously i guess i don't feel like my question has been answered but at this pt im just going to call the rebate ctr in the morning and get it answered lol
 
[quote name='Vulcan2422']So any luck with that question i asked? Anybody else using HDMI to DVI?[/quote]

I use HDMI to DVI. It gives excellent PQ, but beware. There are known handshake issues between the A2 and DVI. So if the picture doesn't show up, try switching your TV on/off or changing the channel.
 
[quote name='ajh2298']Before i talk myself into the BB deal on the A3, we are sure the 360 add-on will never be used for a gaming purpose correct?[/quote]

Probably not. Since they didn't include it with every 360 sold, it's not guaranteed that everyone who has a 360 will be able to use it for gaming. But it will probably be included in the next gen Xbox. If the rumors about it being included in a future 360 model, it will probably be just for HD DVD movie playback.
 
[quote name='BasketCase1080']pretty sure you have to call. Why do you ask?[/quote]Having second thoughts. I really don't like the idea of paying anywhere from $20-30 for movies that I'll only watch once and never look at again. Plus, I'm moving in the beginning of January, so I might not even be here by the time they finally ship my free movies.
 
So anyways, I went to Walmart tonight and got Blood Diamond and Full Metal Jacket Deluxe Edition for $15 each. Awesome.
 
[quote name='LinkinPrime']WTF!? I didnt know there was 2 different ones for the same timeframe.[/QUOTE]


I hope that first one is legit. I would love to use that one instead of the other one so I could get Syriana.
 
[quote name='LinkinPrime']WTF!? I didnt know there was 2 different ones for the same timeframe.[/QUOTE]

Crazy. I was wondering why TMNT was missing from the Toshiba site one. I'm just afraid that if I send in the form with TMNT on it, they'll reject my app.
 
[quote name='Ikohn4ever']not sure which hd dvd player it will be, but CC is having a sale that on select toshibas 5 mail in, 2 in box, and 3 instantly[/QUOTE]

2 in box means that they're going to be the 3rd gens, so A3, A30, and A35.
 
[quote name='orimental']2 in box means that they're going to be the 3rd gens, so A3, A30, and A35.[/QUOTE]


i know that, its just that it might only be the expensive one, plus they arent saying what are the prices of the A3 even if it is included
 
oh.

anyway, over at avs, someone is reporting that Fry's B&M has also reduced the price of the A3 to $98.

looks like fw has confirmed it.

nm, YMMV as it was a Fry's in SD and they are pretty much regional with pricing.

You could always call them. Doesn't hurt to ask. I know I would rather have TMNT and Syriana than the other selections.

Before I send in my form I may give them a ring and see if I can use that Sears form.
 
Linkiin,

Were you looking to get rid of the Bourne Movie that came in your box?? I was trying to look for BI and didn't want to shell out for the overpriced retail version. Let me know if you were wanting to.

Thanks

For real! The A3 for $98! I'm going tomorrow!

could have mine... pm me offer? Also 300 is available.
 
I just connected my HD-A3 and it was playing for about 5min and then I got error code: 408bc504

I haven't updated the firmware but I assumed the firmware out of the box would atleast play Batman Begins...no dice, I'm out of blank CD-R's and I don't want to unplug the ethernet cable on my XBOX360 since it seems to be faulty when I unplug it sometimes it won't connect to XBOX Live again.

So anyone have this problem before firmware update? Did the update fix it?
 
Well, I updated the firmware on my A3 and it won't play Batman Begins, but It finally played Transformers...Tried Batman Begins on my XBOX360 HD DVD player and it worked perfectly. I think I might take it back to Best Buy for a refund and just stick with my XBOX360 HD DVD player.
 
Hmm, looking at the bottom of the sears rebate, it seems to be a mockup:
http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2224/1838183351_1744cda37c.jpg?v=0
I don't know if this is legit. How did this get found? Was it linked to or was it hidden and found with google or something?

My guess is it won't be honored.

ill call the number this morning and see if it is legit...i don't know why it wouldn't be if it was posted on the sears web site...
 
These deals on the A2 and A3 are nice but the fact that they're not 1080p kinda blows it for me. I mean I guess they're good for people that have 720p TVs but if you have a 1080p its just not worth it to not be able to view your movies in full resolution.

Anybody know if the 360 HD-DVD can playback in 1080p?

If you've got a 1080p monitor, it'll display 1080i content in 1080p.

Yes it will with the addon buy only through HDMI.
 
[quote name='kevzik']

I am seriously sick of so many different hd dvd deals coming up every second...wtf is going on?[/quote]

I'd like to look at all the recent HD DVD deals as a good thing ;)
 
[quote name='Vulcan2422']Question for the people with the HD-A2.

Im runing componet right now. Except my TV has DVI. Would it Ok to use the HDMI to DVI cord and then optical out to my optical in on my tv? Would the picture be better? By how much better over the Componet right now?[/QUOTE]

The picture would probably not be better, BUT you would get regular DVD upconversion, which you wouldn't get over component. Just make sure your TV's DVI input is HDCP compliant (some older ones aren't).
 
Do we have a clue on when the CC HD-DVD Player(2 in box, 3 in store, plus 4 via mail in), sale will start I just got another legit $40 off a $200 purchase coupon in the mail, and about 20.00 in rewards coupons coming also.

I didn't know there was going to be such a sale? Do you mean 5 via mail in? Or is CC giving you 3 + 4?

Sorry I was posting in reference to this post
 
[quote name='bombtom15']Yes it will with the addon buy only through HDMI.[/QUOTE]

Actually, the add-on will do 1080p with a HDMI cable, VGA cable, or if you use a PC and software to watch the movies.

Why does it say that the hd-a3 is $199 even though it isn't? What is the point of that. Either I'm missing something or you had a little typo;) . Lol. Hopefully I'm just missing something.
