the style takes a bit of getting used to.. but damn.. its pretty much just a whole video dedicated to hill. and he earned it too. amazing stuff. and the athertons track up in north wales. fak, these guys flow through the woods smoother then water.

[redride]

[SteezyWeezy]

[General Lee]

[PDS RX]

you English with your good MTB moives, and the fact that you get them before us

 

[dhmike]

i must have it.

 

[DBR X6 RIDER]

My copy is paid for. All I can do is wait. Dammit! Dammit!! Dammit!!!

 

[Eren]

Where in the UK did you buy it? no bike shops near london have it yet!

 

[dhkid]

picked it up at my LBS. another reason to support your LBS. it was already here on saturday actually.

 

[FCLinder]

When is it going to be in the US?

 

[General Lee]

ordered mine direct from the UK. My DVD player suppots both formats so no need waiting until March, or whenever they usually show up here.

 

[Mc.Dub]

What?? March??
*Cries*

 

[big-ted]

OK, someone more knowledgeable fill me in here. If I intend to watch this DVD on my laptop, will it matter about the "format"? I thought DVD's were all the same format, but movies etc were encrypted to prevent piracy. I thought sports films were usually exemept from these encryptions though? I'm going home to the UK next week and might pick up a copy...

 

[Mc.Dub]

UK uses PAL
North America uses NTSC

It's a way of encoding the information on the dvd, Discs look the same but the data on a PAL disc can't be read by a NTSC player. Mine will read both so I could order it from the UK (kind of expensive) So you need figure out if you can play PAL discs on your laptop.

[Tiago79]

They are coded by region. You should be able to change the region on your laptop to what your DVD is. You can get a multi-region DVD player and play DVD's from any region. I havent checked in while but you could get them on ebay for well less than $100(maybe even $50)so if you like DVD's from other places you dont have to wait until they show up in America. I ordered my copy this morning and the shipping was included(to Brazil)with the dollar being sh*t it ended up being double the bro deal price from the shop but is better than waiting until spring.

 

[Tiago79]

Just looked. Starting from about $30 new.

It's VAS entertainment. They are a supplier to distributors (QBP, BTI).

 

[luiz carlos]

Well...........Re-Focus is available now.

I had a mini premier at my house last night, on the projector. Its the sam hill show, i dunno i jus didnt like it as much as the previous offerings, theres just nothing new any more. I watched NWD 8 last night too, and although its different, at least you can tell its number 8 in a series and couldnt be swapped for say 4. where as earthed 5 could be any of the vids really.

 

[bizutch]

I saw the trailer for Re-Focus yesterday and loved the racer boy zip line camera. Earthed 5 will probably feel like 1-4, no way to avoid that since the same videographer can only progress their style so much.

 

[mtbiker219]

I should have mine next week or so. cant wait!!!!

 

[quickfeet18]

all of the earthed dvds will work on american and uk computers. the encoding is only done to movies

 

[Eren]

yep. the earthed DVD i bought in the US works on my UK dvd player, and mines UK zone only.

But there is a website that has codes for dvd players sort of like the unlock code for cell phones so you can use any sim card, well this alows you to play any zone dvd. Ill try to find the webstie again

 

[sittingduck]

A computer will play all formats. If you want to get really tricky, you can convert PAL to NTSC with the right programs.

Ooh, thanks for reminding me, must go and pick it up at lunchtime

Many computer DVD drives are region locked and won't play multi region DVD's unless you update the firmware (which doesn't exist for some drives).

why should anyone help you? (use file | open disc in vlc instead of opening the individual ifo's)

My copy arrives this week. Maybe Earthed 6 will be sponsored by IH

actually it's a DVD recorder which happens to support and convert to/from both formats. I really bought it to record euro. porn. the fact that it plays euro. mt. bike videos is simply an added bonus.

If VLC is a bit too complicated for you, you could try PowerDVD or WinDVD. They are a little more user-friendly.
