HD Moods Fire Blu-ray
Topics Entertainment | 2009 | Not rated | Mar 03, 2009
HD Moods Fire(2009)Other     For more details about HD Moods Fire on Blu-ray, see the HD Moods Fire Blu-ray Review HD Moods Fire Blu-ray, Video Quality  This is the Cadillac of fireplace Blu-rays as far as the 1080p VC-1 encoded image goes. As is advertised on the back cover, this was filmed in HD with a Red Digital Camera, which provides 4000 lines of resolution, twice the normal HD res. What that means is a strikingly realistic image, though of course there's not a heck of a lot to see here. The good news is there is no artifacting in the quickly changing flames in any of the many different modes available on the BD. Colors, such as they are, are well saturated, and the surrounding black levels are consistent, with excellent shadow detail. HD Moods Fire Blu-ray, Audio Quality Similarly, there are quite a few options available on the soundtrack side of things, split between Dolby 5.1 and 2.0 offerings. It's a bit unwieldy to toggle between these choices due to Topics' odd menu setup, where you must first choose between stereo or surround and then go into another menu (not even a submenu) from which to make your actual soundtrack choice. On all of the fires included, you are offered natural fire sounds in both sound formats, and they sound just clear and crisp and crackly as can be. The 5.1 was actually a little disconcerting since you can clearly hear the snap and crackle behind you, perhaps raising your blood pressure just a bit. There are varying music soundtracks available on the various fires, again in both 2.0 and 5.1, with ambient names like "breeze" or "warm," but frankly I couldn't hear much difference between them, save for the holiday tunes played over the Christmas fire and the kind of funny organ music played over the supposedly scary castle fire. |
