Universal HD-DVD Site
 
My player is in the shop. Has anyone tried connecting theirs to this site?

I notice at the bottom of that page it gives a bunch of Xbox connection links. Can you connect the add-on to sites like this?

I thought the only way you could connect was with a web-enabled disc. I believe Heroes is the first one from Universal.

I'm probably wrong but I got the impression from looking at the site that you could download and watch HD trailers.

I'm assuming the HD downloads will be for the 360 only? Weird site.

Notice the "connect your player" says nothing about connecting to the site, simply about connecting it online.

But then this image:

implies otherwise. Very confusing.

Do any of the Toshiba players have a Hard Drive? Or enough memory to download a trailer?

Got to download some trailers via my Heroes HD DVD disc (Disc 2), but the trailers offered were all standard def. :(

Haven't checked since release day, but that's all they offered via download the last time I checked...

So I'm not crazy after all. :)

I thought it was confusing too and wondered how it was possible to download to a Toshiba. If all you get is SD trailers then I wouldn't bother but watching HD trailers on the big screen via the Toshiba would be cool.

Don't the players have a mem card slot? Well, i don't have a hd-dvd player, so i don't know...

The Bus 08-30-07 04:04 PM

From what I understood, they indeed have a hard drive. At least the A1 does.

No HDD it seems... http://geekswithblogs.net/lorint/arc.../21/75795.aspx
