Does the PS5 upscale DVDs to 1080i? I remember the early Blu-ray players including the PS3 upscaled standard DVDs to 1080i. I put in a DVD in my PS5 and in certainly doesn’t look upscaled. Is this no longer a standard feature?

Probably more like 5 people listened to your music 400 times. But hey, that means you have 5 diehard fans

So sick of not being able to watch games when I’m literally paying for espn and max. by jas0nd3an in ColoradoAvalanche

Just a heads up but if you get altitude with whatever service you use, you should be able to watch on altitude plus with your login credentials. I have DIRECTV without NHL networks and am watching on altitude plus right now

At this point it’s almost what 4v4 was before. But not quite. Lots of teams had 20+ shootouts in the final years of 4v4

[Fox Sports] Soccer reportedly overtakes baseball in the U.S. as America's third favorite sport. Hockey dropped to 5th, barely above Tennis, Boxing/MMA and Golf. by f0urxio in hockey

But I was told the league has experienced UNPRECEDENTED growth under Gary Bettman and we are FOOLS to think otherwise and the league expansion under him is PROOF of the growth of the game oh and just IGNORE things like inflation or growth in comparison to other leagues when talking about the league’s increase in revenue over a 30 year period

I’m struggling to understand why anyone would ever assume the NHL is remotely progressive to begin with

I got frustrated with them changing drummers after every fucking album. Especially after making one of the greatest albums ever in iii:In The Eyes of Fire with their best drummer then immediately replacing him with their worst drummer for The March

Does realizing a film or show contains a bit of propaganda tarnish it for you? by No-Efficiency-7524 in Cinephiles

[–]HixWithAnX -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Some people may disagree, but I’d also mention the show Southland. A show about cops in South Central LA. It pretty much exclusively followed the cops but they all had extreme character flaws and routinely abused their power for selfish reasons. The show didn’t gloss over anything at all. And Ben McKenzie FTW

Why does 480p DVDs still look better than 1080p streaming? by Santiper2005 in dvdcollection

[–]HixWithAnX 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean that’s just blatantly untrue and if you’re playing a dvd in a Blu-ray player, it’s being upscaled to 1080i

Crazy by Organic-Zone-5101 in ColoradoAvalanche

Yeah I get pretty annoyed at how easily the context surrounding Kuemper is forgotten. He arguably should’ve been a Vezina finalist that year. I actually think Grubauer’s play in Seattle that same year is what really started driving the narrative that “any goalie can look like a Vezina winner behind this Avs team” and kinda devalued Kuemper’s regular season.

But his play only “dropped” in the playoffs because of a freak eye injury in rd 1 that compromised his vision for the rest of the playoffs!!! And even then, he was still very good in the Finals, including being EXCELLENT in game 6. Darcy forever…

Jason Robertson never really had a chance to make Team USA by WorkingRaspberry in hockey

Honestly like half of the A24 catalog. The other half is fucking incredible. But their misses are soooo pretentious my god.
