AVS HD 709 - Blu-ray & MP4 Calibration - Page 120

Thanks for the helpful answers. Right now I don´t have another empty DVD here, so I will try it in the next few days again (it was a DVD-R), and will check the MD5.

is there a way to burn directly to a usb without first burning a DVD?

You should be able to extract the files to USB using winrar or 7-zip. It won't be bootable, but I don't think you need that.

I can't get the USB to work and I can't burn it to blu ray using IMGBurn.....Can I just buy the friggin disc somewhere? This has been the most frustrating thing ever.

Just wasted $25 worth of BD-R ARGGHHHH


Edit:

Must be a bad bluray burner. The burner came with the computer and this was my first time trying it. I tried a blank DVD in my DVD burner and it worked! Thank god!

Now time to learn!

Did you ever think of the possibility that your computer is infected with Malware?

Strongly suggest using `ALL 3' of these to scan your computer from `Safe Mode.' (Note: `Safe Mode' with Networking, not Normal Mode!)

Instructions:

Please note: the New Malware that is infecting CPUs is what I call Stealth Viruses.
Infects the Boot Sector of the Hard Drive, or installs first before any programs startup. The only way to detect this Malware is to remove your Hard Drive, boot up firstly with 3.5 Floppy on another Malware Free CPU and check Sectors 1 through 63. (An old copy from way back when of nu.exe with the /m switch helps greatly in this matter.) All Sectors except #1 should contain only Zeroes. If not, put them to all Zeroes. Replace Sector 1 with a new MBR.
We're seeing lots of this! What happens - as soon as you boot up, you're already infected! This infection now masks any other infections on your Hard Drive/s. (If you have more than 1 hard drive, also check the other drives. These malwares are know to put backups on the other drives.) Your AntiVirus has also been corrupted to look like it's working, but not! So, AntiVirus downloads new updates, scans, but finds nothing! Once the Boot Sector is taken care of, now scan your Hard Drive with the above mentioned Online Virus Scanners. Of course, we're assuming here that the CPU you're using is infection free?p5browne

On a PS3, will the AVCHD version (burned to a DVD) and the HDMV version (burned to a BD) provide the exact same results for both visual and meter patterns/calibration or will there be any differences?

There is some mention on the first page that you can use the disc version with the Xbox 360. Do I just burn the AVHC version to a DVD-R?

Any help would be much appreciated as I'm totally lost!

thanks, just wanted to make sure I was missing anything by not having a BD burner/BD-R media

Are there plans in the future to add full field saturation sweep and ColorChecker patterns support for Calman v5?

Thanks

Are the MP4 links producing incomplete downloads for anyone else?
The link works, and a file downloads, but I can't extract it (not the right file size).

You can try the mirror.

FTL...
I didn't even notice the mirror link in the first post.
That .7z link worked, just fine.
Thanks...

Many thanks to the developpers for the good program. I've used the dvd to calibrate the tv for my blu-ray and ps3 and I want to calibrate the screen (with the mp4 file )for playback from my usb harddrive. I have a samsung ue46d8000. This one has the RGB only mode which is very handy to calibrate the colors. I've put the mp4 file on my harddrive and connect it to usb with my television. But I can't select the rgb only mode. I can select it with the hdmi input (blu-ray and ps3). Anyone got a solution for this?

does anyone have a mirror for the HD versions? HDMV files download at like 10kb/sec from wuala...


nevermind * it was just the connection i was on earlier..

how do i play HDMV ISO file with TMT6?? windows 7 PC
i try .but cant seem to figure it out. these are the steps i take with no success.

down load HDMV.7zip
extract to desk top
mount with Ultra ISO or Deamon tool
run TMT6. the drive shows up in the home page of TMT6, i click on it, TMT6 gives message saying something about no file found or disc found something like that..

if i get a older version of TMT , it might work the mounted ISO file??

i need the file for avs hd 709

Then you need to read the first post in the thread....

OK, I have got to be missing something here. Just got a new Elite 60" so I wanted to try this out. I've got an LG BD390 which is supposed to support HDMV and AVCHD (heck, it's even on the AVCHD sticker on the player). I first tried HDMV (burned to DVD). Checksums matched. Put the disc in and it is recognized as "BD" and then immediately says Disc Error and spits it out. So then I tried AVCHD. Again, checksums matched. Same results - BD, then disc error, the spits it out.

So what in the heck am I missing?

Using some generic DVD+R's

Make sure that your DVD burning software is burning the DVD+R as a DVD-ROM booktype. This is the most readable format of DVD.

I poked around ImgBurn and see no such option. I have tried using different DVDs (some DVD+R DL's) and it actually failed to read back properly in the verify phase. I was able to mount the ISO via Virtual CloneDrive, so it seems fine. I then tried to just burn the contents (vs the ISO) and got the same results on my BD player.... I also lowered the burn speed down to 2.4x, same problem... Am I cursed? Unfortunately my trial of Nero has expired as well and I haven't looked around for other burning SW (built in Windows 7 ISO burner won't recognize my burner for some reason).

Which did you burn with: Nero, or ImgBurn? An ImgBurn Blu-ray should work. I use NTI, but found the ImgBurn works better.
Other possiblity, some Players don't like certain Brands of Blu-ray Media. I'm using Verbatim with no issues. Played back through an OPPO 93. My Sony and Samsung Players give me problems: Sony won't play properly, and the Samsung is a pain in the butt re trying to Pause.

Thanks for the responses. I'll probably try a burner on another computer tomorrow (think I've got two more at home I can try). Don't have access to a BD burner, just several DVD burners. LG player (BD390) is up to date on FW. Used ImgBurn for all my burns using the DVD+/-RW/BD-ROM drive in my Dell Studio. I can try to burn at work on Monday where I have access to different media, a different burner, and Roxio (though I've got ImgBurn there as well)

Edit:
BTW, the AVCHD disks I have burned are readable on the PC . I just tried playing one of the disks in VLC and it seems to play fine. Menu comes up and can click thru to the selections. Really starting to sound like a player incompatibility
