I'm looking for any BD disc which have film based content stored as 1080i60. Is there such thing? Concerts?

The 'Short Circuit' Blu-ray is a 1080i transfer of a 35mm movie.

Terminator 3: http://bluray.highdefdigest.com/1197/terminator3.html


Search that site for "1080i blu-ray review" and you'll get some likely hits. You'll have to research which ones are film-based.

Well that's disappointing. Good ol' Arnold deserves better treatment than that.

Only the first version of T3 is 1080i (the non-IME video track), the second version is fixed and is in proper 1080p. You would need to check the barcode to find out which version it is.

That was the HD-DVD version, yes? There were a more than a few HD-DVDs that were 1080i in the early days.

No, the first Full Metal Jacket HD DVD and Blu-ray were both encoded as 1080p. The problem is that the transfer stemmed from an old 1080i master that the studio deinterlaced in-house prior to authoring.


There are very few HD DVD discs actually encoded as 1080i, and I believe almost all of them are concert or scenery titles.

What does the bar code say on the second version?

No it was 1080p but flagged as 1080i (like all HD DVDs), so players would only output as 1080i. Playing on a PC, software could ignore the flags and play it as 1080p.

That's strange. Blu-ray players (at least on mine, anyway) always outputs at the resolution you set it as. So if you set it to 1080p, you'll always get a 1080p output. If a movie content is 1080i, the player will do the de-interlacing and output it as 1080p. If it's 480i/p, the player upconverts it.

That's right, I forgot about the details.
