So you picked up a nice Toshiba Thrive tablet, and figured that with such a nice screen, it would be great for watching movies on it. Unfortunately, there are not that many options to actually obtain movies for it. Of course you can watch videos from YouTube, but for new-release movies, you are tied to Google [...]
Small update to MovieGallery:
The UPS guy just dropped off The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo bluray dvd combo box, so I ran it through its paces:
After playing with the new iPad 3 for a few days, I came up with some video settings for DVD Catalyst 4 that work really well for just about everything you want to convert.
Of course, after checking out the tools4movies.com website on the iPad3, to see what it looks like, I had to test video playback. Great screen, retina, sharper than 1080, all nice, but the aspect ratio of the iPad3 is its biggest let-down for me:
As mentioned in the newsletter (link) my iPad3 came in earlier, so I snapped some pictures of it.
Thank you for reading the 47th. Tools4Movies Newsletter, Today is iPad3 Day. Announced last week, and of course massive pre-orders, FedEx is finally delivering them to the lucky few million.
So you picked up a shiny Amazon Kindle Fire, and after playing around with it for a couple of days, you have realized that unless you use Amazon Prime and Netflix, playing movies and TV shows on it is a bit of a hassle. Your Amazon Prime and Netflix subscriptions work great, however, either they [...]
So you picked up a nice Barnes and Noble NOOKtablet tablet, and figured that with such a nice screen, it would be great for watching movies on it. Unfortunately, there are not that many options to actually obtain movies for it. Barnes and Noble currently doesn’t offer any movies for it, so aside from watching videos [...]
The Adventures of Tin Tin has the 99track issue. In order to convert this movie properly, and with the scenes in the correct order, you will have to determine the correct track to use.
With Apple’s popularity among the portable media devices with the iPod, iPad and iPhone, of course the iPad3 is something that a lot of people want. Super-easy to use, amazing screen, and of course obtaining content like music, movies and TV shows is made painless through Apple’s iTunes. But what if you already have a [...]
So you got yourself a cool Motorola XyBoard, and after playing with it for a bit, you figured it would be great if you could use it to watch your movies and TV shows on it. You tried YouTube, and might even tried a movie or 2 from Google’s Video section in the Android Market, [...]
So you picked up a nice Asus Transformer Prime tablet, and figured that with such a nice screen, it would be great for watching movies on it. Unfortunately, there are not that many options to actually obtain movies for it. Of course you can watch videos from YouTube, but for new-release movies, you are tied to [...]
So you picked up a nice Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablet, and figured that with such a nice screen, it would be great for watching movies on it. Unfortunately, there are not that many options to actually obtain movies for it. Of course you can watch videos from YouTube, but for new-release movies, you are tied [...]
Personally I prefer the original better, but I had someone ask me regarding the Footloose remake earlier today, so I ran it through its paces with DVD Catalyst 4.
Earlier this week, I explained how you can join a multi-part Bluray movie like Fellowship of the Ring into a single file with DVD Catalyst. There are multiple methods to accomplish this, so for the second Lord of the Rings movie, The Two Towers, I decided to use a different method.
As part of my preparation for the new iPad3, which should be here this friday, I am continuing my testrun of a few movies. Eventhough I am using the iPad3 profile in DVD Catalyst 4 (iPad3 HQXT to be exact), the format itself is compatible with just about all Android and Apple devices out there, so it [...]
With the iPad3 underway (I just got the notification that it should be here on the 16th) I figured I’d run some tests with the iPad3 HQXT profile in DVD Catalyst 4, so that by the end of the week, I have a nice collection of movies to transfer over. First one, Immortals, released only [...]
Thank you for reading the 46th Tools4Movies Newsletter, A bit of a weird week regarding the weather. It truly feels like March. Among snowfall, thunder storms and heavy wind, we are now experiencing some nice spring weather. My pets are eagerly looking outside the window, so later today, I’ll be taking my 2 dogs to [...]
