Nomo Audioholic Samurai Dec 27, 2009 #4 Lost for sure. I would think the first episode's plane crash would sound great on BD, not to mention the afore mentioned hot chicks in 1080P. Ooh, freeze frame/ slow motion. I can't wait for the final season to start.

supervij Audioholic General Dec 27, 2009 #5 Personally, I think they're both great shows, and the first seasons of each are great examples of stellar writing and directing. It's a toss-up for me as to which I'd recommend, but I'll throw this out there: Lost definitely looks and sounds better on BD than Prison Break (not a huge difference, but a noticeable one). cheers, supervij

Nothing like using the freeze-frame option while zooming in on that panty shot. I be darn, now I am hungry! Claire is hot as well. My vote is for LOST. Cheers, Phil

Adam Audioholic Jedi Dec 28, 2009 #12 Alex2507 said: Season 1 ? Click to expand... Yep. I'm looking forward to 1080p, which is higher res than the broadcast.

It's 480i DVD in 16:9 with DD. Still way better than broadcast with the upscaling but I might be missing something here. Am I missing something here?

Adam Audioholic Jedi Dec 28, 2009 #14 Alex2507 said: Am I missing something here? Click to expand... Yeah, that it IS in blu-ray. BTW, DVD upscaled would not be better than 720p broadcast (IMO). The image quality of the digital broadcast is really phenomenal, IMO. Actually, I've only seen it in reruns on 1080i, so I don't know what source material they are using. Perhaps the blu-ray won't be a huge step up from that.

I just checked and season 1 is in BR while season 5 is in DVD. I'll give disc 1 season 1 a go and make a determination on whether or not to watch it all again. I really liked that scenery and the audio was quite good as well I thought. As far as DVD's go I think my Denon 1920 was the bomb but I still haven't read the manual on the BD60. With a static image on the 1920 I found that my TV likes a 720p image the best. Upscaling to 1080i wasn't as nice. I have no idea what the BD60 is doing with a DVD if anything. I have manuals and projects coming out of my ears.

It discusses how to set the HDMI resolution. I have my BD60 upconvert to 1080p. EDIT: Alex2507 said: I just checked and season 1 is in BR while season 5 is in DVD. Click to expand... Delete Season 5 from your queue and then add it back. I can add Season 5 in blu-ray to my queue.
