I have converted a decent amount of Blu-ray and DVD movies via the Vudu-To-Go application on my PC.<\/p>\n
The only one I have a problem with is Ladyhawke (1985)<\/p>\n
It’s a movie that I only have on DVD. \u00a0(Not available on Blu-ray in the United States.) The problem I have with it is: It’s only available as SD through UV\/Vudu and it shows as a tiny widescreen movie on everything I have tried to watch that digital copy through.<\/p>\n
The DVD itself will upscale in my PC and PS3 and PS4. It’s absolutely not something I want to watch through any UltraViolet source. UV LadyHawke is only in SD and a terrible version of SD at that. It’s so fuzzy, blowing it up by putting a TV’s mode to\u00a0ZOOM is sickeningly ugly. I can’t even ZOOM the picture on my PC, for instance, only some devices can change the picture size, at any rate it’s something that doesn’t matter as I don’t want to ZOOM on that movie anyhow, and doing so only makes one have to put the TV mode to another when not viewing that UV SD version of the movie.<\/p>\n
I’d love to have an HD version of this movie. I will eventually import a Blu-ray of it if it doesn’t actually get released in the US that way. That just means I can watch it with the Disc only. Possible, not as friendly as I’d like it since I do have a laptop with no optical drive, and a tablet.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
