Thanks for featuring my Collection Tanmay! I'm thrilled to have a small part in this fantastic video!

[@TanmayMehta]

Thank you so much 👍🏻 And happy to see your fantastic collection 😀

[@averagestudent4358]

Still physical Blu-ray holds an upper hand. ❤

[@1987thakurankit]

There is also a volume gain difference in OTT vs original disc if audio quality is considered.Disc has higher gain levels and is always better.

[@NikhchansGaming]

There's no comparison. Video might be Ok. But the Audio compression on OTT kills the experience!

[@sakthihvishakan3828]

Long read: As far as video quality is concerned, you will need a bigger, better screen to notice the difference. But yes there is a big difference in video quality like details, sharpness, colors etc. The big difference is in audio quality. Basically Dolby atmos is played in streaming as well as bluray but the difference is in the format In Streaming- Dolby atmos is played as doby digital plus which is compressed.(Max bitrate-640kbps or 768kbps) In bluray- Dolby atmos is played as dolby TrueHD uncompressed. ( Bitrate goes as far as 8mbps- which is a huge difference) Plus no streaming supports DTS audio. The difference is highly noticeable only when you have good 5.1 surround system and good calibration. Soundbars doesn't do the job well in this. Avg size of a movie in streaming -15-20gb while in 4k bluray it is around 70-90gb Thats quality. But hey it costs more. Either u need to spend on bluray player and 4k discs or other media players like Nvidia shield,Zidoo, dune and get large storage Hard disks to play bluray movies. Note: Media players like vlc in-built in TV will not passthrough dolby atmos TrueHd it will compress.

Hi Tanmay, any suggestions on how to play the demo files you have provided on a firestick 4k max? I have it stored on a synology nas drive attached to the same network. I also have a ps5, apple tv and the webos of LG if needed.

[@TanmayMehta]

This video will surely help you. We have also recorded this demo on FireTV Stick 4K Max. Here's the link to check it out: appopener.com/yt/6bi7fu50b

[@VIPULKUMAR-yk1ht]

Can u please make a video on how to cut subwoofer bass in apartment home theatre systems.

[@TanmayMehta]

Depends on room acoustics. But best is to use the spikes or studs provided and put the sub on the rubber bass sheet!

[@greetmoon]

Appreciate if you can discuss on good options 4k media server

[@TanmayMehta]

Many options like WD, Synology, QNAP, etc.

[@Devmudhaliyar]

Oppenheimer Blu Ray any day

[@saniltalathi]

What about your plex plans which we talked about, when we met in your office?

[@TanmayMehta]

Plex plans couldn't work out due to format limitations of the platform!

[@Devmudhaliyar]

Also can you please help me understand, when I plug a EXT HDD to Nvidia shield, does the NVIDIA device process the sound for me and leave only the Amplification part to be done by the AVR. I am a bit confused. I must confess that there is a huge difference in the way NVIDIA render the sound compared to when I use the laptop to play a movie.

[@TanmayMehta]

Video and audio processing happens in the Nvidia. AVR takes care of further matching it with its audio format selection!

[@Devmudhaliyar]

Ok, thanks Tanmay...is it possible to make an video on this topic.

[@saketbj1976]

Always on Bluray, but getting the discs is a pain now. Anyways which 4k Blu-ray player do you recommend? I have a 1080p Panasonic which is serving me well with my collection, but now the need for 4k is imminent.

[@shivajipadamukhi]

Netflix gives a download option in mobile devices at highest quality to watch off line but not OTT media streaming devices.. How to connect mobile to dvr ?? Or do you know any OTT steaming devices with download option and play later off line.

[@TanmayMehta]

Downloaded streaming is still of low quality and except for MHL (to TV or Projector) there is no way to connect mobile to AVR.

[@TanmayMehta]

You can drop a message on bit.ly/GBAVIBA for any buying needs. And best bluray players are - Panasonic 820, Sony X800 👍🏻

[@davidkosta7245]

Hi sir how abt amazon 4k amazon firestick compare to bluray very costly and in demand

[@TanmayMehta]

Amazon firestick is OTT streaming so it will not be the best when compared to Blurays.

[@davidkosta7245]

@TanmayMehta thank you sir I know that disc is the problem very expensive.

[@nagoprak]

Blu Ray cd & 4k discs are hardly available post Covid phase for new hindi films in india as majority have shifted to OTT. As per Amazon india , samrat Prithviraj was last officially listed new original Hindi film. Cd Shops are long closed 🔐 nearby home

[@adityadas5820]

Yes that is sadly the case with hindi films which didn't even adopt the 4k bluray medium. But for anything hollywood or foreign cinema you can get some good deals in amazon or maybe importing them from amazon us. Some good individual deals also come up in some bluray forums that are india specific.

[@AuthenticAbhi1]

I'm always crave to have good collection of some musical bollywood bluray movies , few of them i already grabbed, when i get crave again i just scroll on Amazon

[@AuthenticAbhi1]

also as of now no single ott is able to provide uncompressed sound output

[@nagoprak]

@@AuthenticAbhi1 same here ...

[@vasu5313]

Burn blue ray into your nas and build your own ott for your home for the best quality.. immediately you can sell the blue ray dvd to others..

[@TanmayMehta]

Absolutely :)

[@averagestudent4358]

Where to get Blu-ray disks from ? New and old?

[@averagestudent4358]

Only Amazon or any other sources?

[@senthilkumarnadarajan2247]

In OTT, we can download the movies and keep it within the app right?

[@heavenlyxtacy]

@@senthilkumarnadarajan2247 no you cannot, you only can stream and on mobile you can download and keep but for like 3 or 4 days, after that it gets deleted or wont work.

[@TanmayMehta]

Amazon and Flipkart. Else Crossword 😀

[@SoumalyaPathak]

is there any online or offline store available in India (except Amazon & Flipkart) from where we can buy 4k blu-rays new or old collections? (original)

[@TanmayMehta]

You can check Landmark or Crossword stores and any old CD shop in your city.

[@bidyutghosh727]

Oppenheimer in jio Cinema for Aaam admi, although Jio cinema not have 5.1 but it will reach max customer as it has regional language also.

[@TanmayMehta]

Whatever pleases you!

[@mananagarwal7002]

but Oppenheimer in 4k BD is just next level thing. like if you see that can you hear the music scene or black and white scenes you won't believe that this image was shown by your projector only like it is so damn good and crisp

Pls suggest blue ray movies disc having Dtx content

Hey Gajanan, There are many. You can check the rear cover photo of bluray discs for audio format

[@parupudiphanindra3126]

​@@TanmayMehtai have 4k blueray player. Amazon charging bomb for 4k bluerays. I had some blurays,and some dvds anyvtime physical discs best than ott. Where can we get 4k discs cheaply. And how about purchasing movies from itunes. Are they in good quality.

[@TanmayMehta]

Purchasing iTunes movies will still not be as lossless as blurays. You will have to find out stores in US and other markets, and seek help from people travelling around you! The only faster and reliable source 😁

One needs to have some brains to avoid high investment to watch Blu-ray movies , but that still need a small portion to invest like high end 4k media player with dolby vision and dolby atmos and rest depend upon your skills how to use internet to enjoy Blu-ray movies with top notch quality Your topic needs a hell of investment first with high quality latest Blu-ray player which currently cost around 50k ( 10 years life ) , old Blu-ray wont give you such sound out put And above all price of individual movie which ranges from 1500 onwards and most important availability of new movies which arrives very late . Overall not a bad topic I have watched more than 2000 top quality Blu-ray movies by some tricks and size varied from 30GB to 120GB. One can imagine its quality

I know what’s the catch here 😁
