Hey. This is an endeavor that has been years in the making. :P
Usually I drop a heap of disks in and let it go overnight.
| SvennoJ said: There's Netflix on the tv remote if I'm too lazy to put in a disk. If I want top quality picture, sound and extras for the full movie experience, blu-ray is the way to go and consoles are very useful for that. The only downside is the crap they make you have to skip through before you can start the movie. |
If you want the top quality picture and sound... The HTPC is the best solution. Consoles don't even compare, I'm not even kidding.
Blu-Ray is only the start of the equation, there is so much more to enhance the visual and audio experience.
| SvennoJ said: You could argue 4K gives an even better picture quality, however I bought Your Name on blu-ray for CAD 25, the 4K edition is CAD 143 |
I want my name back please.
Here is some information on video decoding. (A little old, still relevant.)
I suggest you give this a read: https://www.anandtech.com/show/6335/amds-trinity-an-htpc-perspective

There is more to it than just putting in a Blu-ray and thinking you have the best quality, there is a ton you can do to improve the experience, especially in regards to deinterlacing and noise reduction.
On the Audio front... Inside a computer is a very noisy environment, an Xbox or Playstation is no different in that regard as they are computers.
Which is why if you wish to have the best Audio experience, nothing less than an external DAC will do.
