« Digital Video Essentials »

Found it rather disappointing. I have the original video essentials dvd and didn't find anything on the blue ray version to justify replacing it. .:. Rating: 2 / 5

 

« I can see the difference »

There is a LOT of information on this disc. They explain how surround sound works and the best setups. They discuss HD video and how to get the optimal image from your TV.

Worth the price. It really helped me configure my HD TVs to look their best. .:. Rating: 4 / 5

 

« TV Alignment made easy »

I was skeptic about purchasing this as I didn't really know if I needed it, but after buying it, I realized I should have had this since the day I went High-Def. It has many advanced alignment features for the most elite users, but in my case, I wanted to know the state of the equipment I bought and properly align it to get the best image and sound quality. This DVD does just that.
I got a better understanding of the picture and what each of the components of the image I see represents.
I would highly recommend anyone investing in this product even before you decide to buy your HDTV so you know what to look for as long as you already have a blu-ray player. .:. Rating: 5 / 5
