Asked this in the HDTV forum but think I will get a better response here.

Will this (http://www.movietyme.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=29446) play on a normal DVD player/xbox 360/PC? It says it is HD-DVD but it also says it plays on DVD-Rom. What quality will it be?
Sorry for posting an adult DVD but I didn't know where else to ask.

It cums on 2 DVDs.

One will play in standard definition on a regular DVD player, the other is a WMV-HD disc that will play at 720p on a PC. It's not HD-DVD (that launches in March 06). It's WMV-HD which is microsoft's own HD format which has been round for a few years and didn't really take off. See www.wmvhd.com

The HD trailer for Pirates is downloadable at http://www.piratesxxx.com/main.php?tab=trailer

How do you know. It doesn't mention WMV

Trailer looks good, shame about the black levels on my LCD. I wish I could do something about this.

I would hardly say WMV_HD never took off - it is taking off - read other forums.... and it provides an excellent example of what HD will look like :O)
