Has anyone heard a definitive answer to when the HD version of the AVIA II cal disc will be available for shipping.

I know you can now order the regular AVIA II disc but someone told me it will be in 4 different formats if thats correct.

Thanks for the help since I am specifically wanting the HD version but submitting a order now basing it on mere speculation of when the HD version will actually be stocked is not my cup of tea. It could be delayed for another 6 months since no one really knows other then the AVIA II HD versions author.

Sent a e-mail to HDTV-Supply & they sent back info that now they expect the release of the AVIA II HD version in late May or early June from the maker. Still really mere speculation I feel on their part.

I called Ovation today (7/11/07)

They are having "post production problems" with the video for Avia II . They hope to ship in four to six weeks from now which would be mid to late August.

Thanks for the update though I'm not sure what that means. Whatever problems they have, I just hope that they can be resolved asap. Do you happen to know the approx. list price? Thanks.

Please, save us all some time and annoyance- don't report, repeat, or believe anything about HD calibration disc release dates! What has been proven repeatedly now for years is- the only news worth conveying is that the completed titles are actually being shipped.

Alas, I expect it means just what GeorgeAB so succinctly said.

Please forgive my zeal in trying to relay comments received directly from the company on a product there is apparently a lot of interest in. From now on I shall do my best to confine myself to emotional responses devoid of any intrinsic informational content.

By the way I noticed in your profile that your company provides calibration services. How interesting.

I'm also a dealer for Ovation Multimedia's products, and have been for over 7 years. Same goes for Joe Kane Productions and now ISF/Monster. Every attempt these companies have made in recent years to predict when their projects will actually be available has been fruitless. They mean well, but have been at the mercy of circumstances outside of their control.

A chronic pattern has been set and confirmed again and again. Anything you may hear from these companies about anticipated release dates is simply just wishful thinking. Don't bet anything on their reliability. I have resolved myself to just being happy when these types of products arrive at my door.

Geez, it would have been nice if you posted your search results and provided a link, it would have saved other members from searching!

was this the email you received? i just got this today (8/16/07). Apparently 4-6 weeks is a catchphrase for "we have no frecking clue"

==============================================

Thank you for your inquiry. We are currently in the process of updating the Avia disc with both HD DVD and Blu-ray editions, as well as NTSC and PAL. Unfortunately we experienced some technical difficulty in post production and the release of Avia II has been delayed. Our goal is to have the NTSC & PAL versions available in approximately 4 - 6 weeks, and the HD versions to market shortly thereafter; however; I have not been given a firm release date for any of the discs at this time.

I have added your name and email address to our database so when the product is released we will send you a notice.

Thanks again for your interest in our products!

Kind regards,

Lisa Berendts

Hawaiigone,

In a previous post you have indicated you are an agent of this vendor. Is that true?

A look at his previous posts make him look like a shill for that company.
