http://images.betanews.com/media/251.gifThough the formal press release has yet to be delivered, press services including Reuters were formally alerted this afternoon that movies made using hybrid multiple-layer, Blu-Ray/HD DVD/DVD disc manufacturing system for which Warner Home Video applied for a patent earlier this year, will be formally revealed to the public by Warner Home Video next week at CES 2007.

It may seem like magic, but Warner's format, which reports say will be christened Total HD, can sandwich up to three data layers atop one another - not one format on one side and another on the flip side - with each layer capable of being read by its respective player. Up to 22 configurations were described in the application, including mixtures using the high-capacity DVD format SD-9, with the objective being to create a single disc that can be operated in more than one type of player - conceivably as many as three.

conceivablyInconceivable!

Just had to XD


BOT: Sounds like a good way to end the format war, if not, Blu-Ray will win due to the PS3 anyways :P

This whole Blu-Ray/HD still makes me sick, standard DVDs are fine for me until I know which comes out on top (or which ever becomes the standard). Samething.
