At the moment you can get Channel 4, BBC and BBC 1, STV, NHK World and ITV 1 transmitting in high definition but Channel 5 have signalled their intent to transmit free to air HD programming. I hope this will happen sometime during 2012.

BBC sports broadcasts look good in HD and they are transmitting more films on their HD channels although their low bitrate causes some image issues. Hopefully the BBC will listen to customer complaints and up their bitrate, really we need around 16 to 18mbp/s for really good quality. I actually sent a complaint to the BBC recently asking that they raise their bitrate back to previous levels and that they start transmitting all their films in HD.

Movies already out at cinema’s in 3D include Toy Story 1 and 2 with Toy Story 3 to follow this summer. George Lucas has already announced his plans to re-release all six Star Wars films in 3D.

HD screencaps of The Wizard Of Oz on the Blu Ray format. I consider the image quality to be mostly excellent except for one particular isolated moment. This moment can be seen in Blu Ray screencap 6
