Too bad they shot a lousy video to "show off" their wonderful projector. Is there some kind of rule that YouTube videos cannot be done well?

No. Click here and then click WATCH IN HD near the bottom right corner of the video

852 X 479 is HD? Sometimes YouTube sort of sucks.

Come to think of it, that's practically Panavision compared to the usual YouTube quality.

It is 853x480. The funny thing is that you must upload at least a 720p video to even get that. If you upload a 853x480 video, you get normal size. Crazy! I guess for Youtube, it is HD.

Lol

I had not seen that video before. [thumbsup]

If you want to link directly to the "HD" version w/o having to click the "watch in HD thing", link like this:

I must have clipped a couple pixels when using a YouTube screen shot to make this:

Wow! A great-big picture! Something known as lighting! And synchronized sound! This can't really be YouTube, can it?
