ntl:HD? and all things tech relating to NTL/virgin or unspecifyed interesting stuff.
as per requested so as not to make the thread
http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/sh...d=1#post777805 off topic with indirectly related stuff, this thread is open.
i assume that creative is refering to mpeg4-AVC (part 10 aka H.264) rather that the older Mpeg4-ASP (part2 aka divx/xvid).
i always find bonds doom9 codec graphic very telling with regards the different options or lack of options the main codecs have.

creative, what do you make of the fact NTL/Virgin are going to use cheaper options rather than the far better DVB-H long term options that the rest of the EU etc are going to use?.
