Blu-ray with analogue equipment

AIX Records has 24/96 surround dvd's

Some are in 3D. I wonder if pcm out on a player to pcm in on a receiver along with video
in on the receiver
would give standard video on analogue set but

24/96 sound.
  • My analogue set
  • has good blacks

  • and none of the digital
  • problems
  • while 24/96 sound can be
  • prologic spread
  • across all speakers I am concerned about artifact free image and immersive good sound.
    IE can a blu-ray player be used with non-blue-ray tv?

    New Laptop (forwarded to Catherine & Brendan)

    Ironically, an e-mail I sent in colour was praised as evidence of my new computer although this is sent to my inbox in
    colour.
    the problem is that in forwarding that e-mail, colour is no longer there.
    The villain with text is that since Windows 3.1, javascript is used instead of plain html.

    Text use

    does seem to still be easier on my 1982 computer

    Blog to e-mail experiment

    This is regarding my use of my computer to watch rvAlthough most episodes are streamed, it does seem
    that I can watch any episode I have missed of
    any programmes.
    1. Shattered
    2. Fringe
    3. Nikita
    4. or even MI-5

    Same message different impressions

    1. This is typed with a C=64
    2. using the Links browser
    3. but will be viewed
    4. with Explorer and Lynx
    5. differently

    So the question

    becomes whether the message will change between browsers
    or

    whether
    the message will simplyscale depending on the features of the browser-perhaps adding meaning with the more featured browser

    Underutilized?





    Iphone/Pods are much more than phones that
    take pictures.


    Bluetooth connects them to mouses, keyboards and in special cases, printers.
    They can output to video screens and to sound systems.
    It could be asked in what ways they are not fully fledged computers.

    Difficulties getting Technical Info

    Yesterday a sales person (albeit for phones) at a Futureshop assured me
    that Ipod Touches could not have their operating systems upgraded. "Only
    Iphones". Even though a customer said she thought she had upgraded her
    touch.

    Googled sites seem to disagree,

    On a parallel note, I have been told by someone my age that he is typing
    on his Ipod with a usb connected keyboard. The net disagrees.

    Futureshop has a bluetooth dock for a usb keyboard.
    Not clear how all this fits together.
