Question by cholo: how can i play my HD movies on a LED TV without losing its screen resolution quality.?
When i play my movies on a LED TV, its a little bit blurry (my movies are in “.mkv” file extension and they are blu-ray ripped)
i played my .mkv files on my laptop and it works pretty well. The video and audio quality are good but when i try to play it on a LED TV, the video quality is not that good.
Best answer:
Answer by ZABISBA The source material may be the culprit. If the .mkv file’s source material is not good, it won’t translate well. Also, the encoding techniques/settings that were employed will have an effect on how good the quality of the file is. This may require some trial and error to get the right encoding settings. I ripped my dvd collection to digital files and I had to experiment for awhile before I found the settings that gave me the best picture quality.
If you are downloading files from the internet, some groups are better at encoding than others, look for audio video ratings in the comments to determine if the download quality is good. In general, no encoding format is flawless, but .mkv comes pretty close to the HD source material. Good luck.
Question by Azure Z: Can a guitar be tuned to play the Arabic music scale?
I’ve read that the Arabic musical scale is divided into 16 tones. (The standard Western musical scale is divided into 12 tones).
Is it possible to tune a standard guitar to play all 16 tones on the Arabic music scale, or would you have to change the spacing of the frets to do this?
Best answer:
Answer by samuraicoder Yes.
For the tuning see http://www.studybass.com/tools/chord-scale-note-printer/
click the scale tab then select the arabic scale

Question by Sharon: Will an analog tv if used as a monitor to play dvds work with a dvd player after going digital in 2009?
And also, will a vcr work? I’m talking about a regular dvd player and without doing anything special. No cable tv. Cause I have tons of dvds and vhs tapes and don’t like regular tv shows.
Best answer:
Answer by Light Knight Don’t worry too much about it.
If you have a TV that works now with your DVD player, it will still work when the off-air stations go all digital. It just won’t be able to pick up and decode those digital off-air stations. There will likely be a few interface boxes that will decode the digital signal and convert it to an analog signal that will be playable on older sets.
No promises that you’ll be able to get a replacement in case of failure.

Question by lemonzephyr7: How do i play a movie from my pc on a tv?
I am trying to watch a movie on my tv that is stored on my pc. I do not have a DVD burner but I do have a CD burner. The movie has already been converted to DiVX but is still too large to fit on a CD-R. I have an S-Video output on my PC and an S-Video input on my TV. While setting up the movie I can see my desktop on the TV so I know it’s working. Once I start the movie I can see the movie on my PC but not on my TV, but I can still see my desktop elements on the TV. It is my guess that the video is playing back at over 450 lines of resolution which my PC can display with no problem but my TV can’t. How do I drop the resolution of the video down to 450 lines to show on my TV?

i have a samsung series 5 led tv and i am wondering if i can play ipod videos and music on it. it has 2 usb ports and can play other videos.
Best answer:
Answer by classicsat You cannot over USB. USB only works with regular FAT drives and file systems. The iPod touch is not that.
You will need an iPod A/V cable to connect your iPod to the TV to watch.

My Real Player SP crashed and I am planning on switching to another media player except Winamp.
Itunes was the most suggested audio player.But does it play video files equally efficiently?
Please mention the video files it can play or some other media player.
Question by entrechat: What music can I play while my baby is around?
I’m looking for something enriching, I guess you could say.
Soft classical music; Mozart, Vivaldi.
We also have some gentle tribal music as well.
And I’m contemplating playing musicals in the car?
But I’m afraid that they might be a little too…exciting?
I’ve got the Broadway performance of The Lion King on tape, so.
