On both old and new players. - Kostas Wed, 17 Oct 2007 11:56:13 +0200 http://www.zune-online.com/news/zune/zune-gets-a-dvd-quality-tv-out.html#pc_765 .wmv video container format only really blows. why not support divx/xvid and other popular mpeg4 containers? not many video converting software developers make .wmv output specifically for the zune device. canopus 3 supports ipod but not zune. i'm not sure if tmpgenc's videosync outputs a compliant .wmv for zune? the zune needs to support video formats other than their proprietary codec--doing so only limits its acceptance and usability to end users and developers. - john Wed, 17 Oct 2007 02:44:26 +0200 http://www.zune-online.com/news/zune/zune-gets-a-dvd-quality-tv-out.html#pc_751 @solution i tried it, the cucusoft first converts it to the format you say and then the zune software converts it again to 320×240 so it's pretty pointless to do so. - Gaurdian Mon, 08 Oct 2007 19:17:48 +0200 http://www.zune-online.com/news/zune/zune-gets-a-dvd-quality-tv-out.html#pc_749 @ stian: Zune 30 currently plays only wmv 320x240 or 320x180 (widescreen) video formats. It's quality is far less than the DVD-equivalent the new players will have! - Kostas Mon, 08 Oct 2007 16:43:48 +0200 http://www.zune-online.com/news/zune/zune-gets-a-dvd-quality-tv-out.html#pc_748 yeah okey..my bad...but still there is a solution...download cucusoft dvd to zune..it converts so that you get 480*640 or something..havent tried but someone should - stian Mon, 08 Oct 2007 16:36:46 +0200 http://www.zune-online.com/news/zune/zune-gets-a-dvd-quality-tv-out.html#pc_745 @ Gaurdian: Yes, it's a bug of the comment plugin I use. I hope I'll have some time to check whats wrong with it (or just update to latest version). - Kostas Sun, 07 Oct 2007 18:05:45 +0200 http://www.zune-online.com/news/zune/zune-gets-a-dvd-quality-tv-out.html#pc_744 the new zunes might have a higher quality tv output. Btw, does anybody else have to enter every code twice because the first time it says incorrect password? - Gaurdian Sun, 07 Oct 2007 17:02:55 +0200 http://www.zune-online.com/news/zune/zune-gets-a-dvd-quality-tv-out.html#pc_742 It's not that the Zune 30 is being left out in the cold. It's just that the processor has improved for the Zune 80 (as happens with all technology devices). That means the Zune 80 can handle the higher bitrates easily. The Zune 30 might be able to do it, but would probably stutter and skip because it couldn't keep up. That's not something worth having. Bottom line: It's a hardware limitation, not software. - anachostic Sun, 07 Oct 2007 14:51:43 +0200 http://www.zune-online.com/news/zune/zune-gets-a-dvd-quality-tv-out.html#pc_740 I seem to remember back when the original came out it was said that all codecs were software based, so more could be added with a firmware update. That being said, I don't know why we shouldn't get the new codecs with the new firmware. - Mark in St. Louis Sun, 07 Oct 2007 07:49:26 +0200 http://www.zune-online.com/news/zune/zune-gets-a-dvd-quality-tv-out.html#pc_738 Yeah Guardian is right the hardware that they used in the Zune 30 doesn't support DVD out like quality. Only the new flash based and Zune 80 will get that kinda of quality because of theyre updated hardware. - Travis Sun, 07 Oct 2007 01:50:20 +0200 http://www.zune-online.com/news/zune/zune-gets-a-dvd-quality-tv-out.html#pc_737 except dvd out and Zunepad... - Gaurdian Sat, 06 Oct 2007 22:37:32 +0200 http://www.zune-online.com/news/zune/zune-gets-a-dvd-quality-tv-out.html#pc_736 all the new features that the zune 2 have will be coming to zune 1 in a firmware upgrade so everything that zune 2 have thats cool...also comes to zune 1! ;D ;D ;D btw its firmware 2.1 - stian Sat, 06 Oct 2007 18:12:44 +0200 http://www.zune-online.com/news/zune/zune-gets-a-dvd-quality-tv-out.html#pc_735 So does this mean that the original Zune will be left in the cold, and won't get the upgraded output? - Richard Swartz Sat, 06 Oct 2007 14:11:44 +0200
