These were added to our fios tv in Texas as well.
All Intel Macs come with Flash 8 and there has been a beta version of Flash 9 for a while now. So nobody has been seeing white holes. ;-)
For the love of God, use side bars (aka pillar box)! I can't stand stretch modes.
Yeah, the article is just talking about Sony Pictures. Blu-Ray will still support the other MPEG-4 formats, but Sony Pictures have decided that for their initial releases they'll use MPEG-2. The quality will still be top-notch but I have a feeling that there won't be many extras (or they won't be in HD). As soon as you need to release 2+ hour movies and also have a lot of extras MPEG-2 will not suffice. This is when the newer codecs will come in handy (same quality much less space).
I notice this on all DirecTV HD channels. The compression is terrible and I really hope they use the MPEG-4 capabilities of the new receivers/satellites to provide for a better picture and not just crap hundreds of highly compressed HD channels. It's already depressing how poor the quality is on the "HD" channels.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a pair of quality headphones that aren't seemingly made of glass. I'm an avid BMXer which causes me to frequently bash on any type of technology that joins me for my daily riding. I've been through the higher quality headsets in the Skullcandy line as these are supposed to be built for "abuse," which is laughable. I cant wear earbuds or canal buds, as my large ears seem to have a repelling property upon anything that sits in them. Wired or Bluetooth doesn't really matter, but I need something that can hold up to taking a few hits every now and again. I'm trying to keep 'em under $150. Thanks!"
