See topic!

HD DVD has theirs (albeit with bugs), but where's the BD version huh? Huh?

honestly, the HD DVD version of DVE didn't provide any significant improvements over SD Avia so i'd recommend not worrying about it and just using a current sd calibration disc.

Ditto...I did not need to alter a thing in terms of contrast / brightness going from HD DVD DVE vs SD DVE... My first copy of HD DVD was defective. I have a second copy but have not tried it out yet.

I think the main concern of many is that the color space on DVDs is a bit different than that of BR/HD. I don't think it would warrant a huge change in settings of color/tint controls, but it would give the user peace of mind.

I have an HDA1 and cannot get DVE to work. I have test patterns on my PS3 hard drive that I've been using, and they seem to work out fine. They were posted here some time ago.

The difference is between correct and incorrect calibration. You want to use a disc encoded for 709 to do your high def calibration.

Avia 2 was announced, but who knows when that'll be released.

Yeah I remember back in November people were saying Blu-ray verison of Avia will be out in a few months so just wait until then, referring to buying Avia or other disc calibrator on the forums. Huh, it's already May I don't see no Blu-ray Avia. ;)

If it anything like the HD-DVD version, you can expect it around 8 months after the initial release date announcement!

Or you can buy the Beta now on Ebay. :)Shouldn't a Beta be free? Who wants to pay for something that's not even production ready?
