That's from the version I download. I imagine straight from bluray it's even a little better.

yes sir i do. i like how stuff works and how its made too. future weapons and 90% of the history channel is great to. i get bored of hearing the same WWII stories over and over. the pre A.D era is cool to watch stuff on and most of americas early history.

I could see trippin, but high probably wouldn't do much for me. You want to see something good? Trip out and watch Aqua Teen.

LOVE the 52" 750 Samsung. Got PE in 1080p. It's nice. Watched it on the 720p projector. Birth sceen liked to have killed the PC i was running it from.

Re: Planet Earth, Do you like to watch high
 
Tripping/stoned (maybe even sober) you'll have a great appreciation for the other ---- on the planet. I've always enjoyed the documentary/educational type video, but this is definitely one of my favorite series.

I've been watching it on a 1920x1200 26" LCD monitor from my PC. The series was a damn good quality 48gb rip. My old PC couldn't even play the title screen without being chopped to hell, new PC plays every portion silky smooth :) Soon we'll be watching it on a 720p projector now that I've picked the project back up. Surround sound, 10ft high def screen, psychedelics, and PE should be interestinggg...

Building, once I get off my ass and actually do it. The weekend is my only chance, but it's also my only chance to stay out late and sleep all day.

I do! I have all of the episodes saved on my DVR and they're all from Discovery HD. That show is ------- cool watching it stoned on a 52" LCD in 1080i...i still think the Shallow Seas one is the best. I was on a scuba diving kick for like 3 days after that ----

Good deal! What panel & lenses you using? Im about to start another 18" Beseler with a 17" 1280*720 Asus monitor. The thing came in today and it had SEVENTY MOTHER ------- FAULTY PIXELS!?!?!?!? What in the flying ----!? Meh, atleast Newegg pays shipping both ways.

Meh, I didn't have the fresnels yet anyway. No harm I guess. :\

Nice, so have you already built one?

I'm using pro fresnels, pro triplet, 400w MH ballast, and a 17" 1280x1024 2ms LG LCD, no faulty pixels :P Cost me maybe $40-50

Toysrme 01-27-2009 11:12 AM

Re: Planet Earth, Do you like to watch high
 
LL is cool and all. But between the laughably overpriced ---- they sell and now being a pay forum. I wouldn't any more give them a dime than the man in the moon! Can be abit of a pain if you need a long throw front fresnel tho.

This is my third. I built one out of a craigslist 1280*768 special normal triplet 330/220 fres, 400w. It was okay but the throw was waaay too short. Gave it to a friend. Second was a 17" 1280*1024 400w 18" Beseler. Slow blah monitor I got from the savation army store. Its okay for movies but its so old it can NOT handle the FPS games. OK for movies/HDTV tho. Bulb needs replacing after a year anyway. Thing was probably running 4-8 hours a ------- day. :\ Gave that one too a family member that wanted it for football parties over Christmas.

This one is going to be HUGE. Not sure how Im going to light it right now. Its going to wind up 165"+ in the studio because of the 16-18' throw even with the 18" Beseler Im gunna use. Even if I re-ebay my 18"B for a 24"B, it's still going to be a long way and loose an assload of light.


On that LCD, you better run a solid black and a solid white image and go over it slowly with your face about six inches from the screen. If it's visible that close, it'll drive you NUTS on the projected image for real! Run some of the pixel desticker flashy color mcprograms overnight too. Trust me on that! Those damned dark blue/purple pixels can be HARD to see!

Jorsher 01-27-2009 11:45 AM

Re: Planet Earth, Do you like to watch high
 
lol, it's been gone over by my face on black and white images, after being gone over by LG. It's a refurb so they have to go through all sorts of tests. It was D-class because it has "mura" defects which are slight inconsistencies in the contrast due to the backlight...which won't be an issue...and because it has light leakage around the edges, which again won't be an issue since both are related to the backlight/casing and not the actual LCD panel.

I agree that LL has gone to ----. What started as an enthusiast board with low prices for the DIYer has gone to a commercialist BS site where they try to make all the money they can. I was pissed to see that the bulbs are so damn expensive now. You know where to get a good T15 bulb with a good CRI, lumen output, and 6500k color temp?

I fortunately bought all these parts a couple years ago before the site went to ----, and they were used which made them even cheaper.

Give me some tips on the enclosure. The DIY guide gives the info I need for measuring the optics, but I could use some tips on the actual enclosure before slapping the money down and making mistakes.
