Fred兄：

確定是使用eyeIO 這家的晶片與壓縮技術，至於是使用H.264或H.265規格壓縮，就得看到時後的4K電影檔了....

看來影片需透過網路下載，不具光碟機讀取！？

真不喜歡這個圓形的造型!!
不過喜歡嘗鮮還是要趕緊弄一部來玩玩!!
規格上只寫到 Video Compression Resolution : 3840 x 2160/30p; 3840 x 2160/24p
不過目前我手上一堆SONY自家公司新推出的2013展示片，大多是4096x2160/24p的，只有部分電影是3840 x 2160/24p..真有點矛盾!!
3840 x 2160/29.97p



4096x2160/24p

關於Sony這台全球第一台4K媒體播放機，有若干網友有誤解。這一台的使用方式有如加上專屬網路下載功能的爆米花, Dune或M3：透過網路線，它可以讓你從Sony下載Sony影像庫提供的4K影片(把它想成iTune)，這部份當然是要另外付費的。它不是讓你透過網路連線像Youtube一樣即時進行4K串流，因此不需要超大水管的網路頻寬(當然頻寬越大、下載時間愈短).

西楓兄不喜歡造型像掃地機器人的Sony，那試試與Epic有血源關系的RedRay 4K媒體播放機！剛好這兩天開始出貨！

這台RedRay 4K播放機，有幾大特色：
1. 這台雖然價錢偏高，但卻是以Epic, One等攝影機在專業領域躥紅的Red公司，第一台"民生向"消費產品
2. 可以輸入1080p訊源升頻成4K
3. 4K部份目前似乎只支援自家的 .Red 檔案格式
4. Red表示使用自家的.Red壓縮技術，兩小時的4K影片檔案大小只有18G，因此內建1T硬碟大約可以儲存50部電影
5. Red今夏將先透過http://odemax.com/ 提供4K影片下載服務，未來供片商將"持續增加"

RED的播放機我朋友早在一年前就下訂了，到現在還沒被通知出貨。
這一部REDRAY定位應該不是給一般家用，而是希望能統一電影院格式的!!

RED野心不小的，不過在sony播放機版又討論red似乎不妥。

老大，我已將標題修改。
據國外消息，這台RedRay確實已經開始出貨，應該有pre-order的人近期會拿到貨。另，這台確實是有民生向企圖，當然4K video studio 跟Post-production買幾台來與4K面板組成簡易的4K監看系統，也是很方便，畢竟它(以專業眼光)來看便宜，也比PC 播放簡單。

The following post was taken from the Sony 4k media streamer FMP-x1 forum.

"Hello gang. I already have the Sony 4K media player. And I have some really bad news. You are NOT gonna like this.

Short version: I hooked the media player up (correctly) and received the error that the TV could not connect to the media player, along with a variety of error codes. After several hours of this, I returned the first unit and got a fresh one. Same problem exactly.

Enter Sony support. I talked to various people 'up the chain' until I got to a person who actually understood what the issue was. I hope you're sitting down:

Evidently, at the 11th hour, Sony decided to change the HDCP employed in these players. This new version of HDCP is not - I repeat NOT - compatible with virtually *any* 4K television that Sony has sold to date. If you purchased a Sony 4K TV of any size at any time before, I don't know, the last 14 days or so, chances are you're affected.

The solution, per Sony: The entire HDMI board in the TV has to be changed before the media player will work. Of course, Sony will set this up for you. When the part is available. And when the technicians have time. Because, you know, they have to now change the HDMI boards on almost *every* 4K TV they've ever made.

Am I the only person who's more than a little irritated that I just spent close to $7K on a beautiful new TV that effectively now cannot play the *only* 4K content in existence? Truly, truly unbelievable.

Questions? Ask away. But my advice: don't order the media player yet. Get your set's board changed first. Then, you won't have to endure the frustration I've endured today. Grrr......"

Sony announced its FMP-X1 4K Ultra HD Media Player a few months ago, and today confirmed it's arriving in homes and on store shelves by July 15th. The $699 box only works with Sony's own 4K TVs, and early adopting owners of "qualifying" X900A sets can expect a $200 introductory discount. Also available is in-home setup and activations free of charge, set up through the 4KActivation.com site once it's available July 8th. Sony's also named the online 4K movie distribution network it's launching this fall -- Video Unlimited 4K -- which will offer films, TV episodes and short-form content for download. For feature films, it will cost $7.99 for a 24-hour rental or $29.99 to purchase. The 4K Player (and its 10 pack-in movies) is available for pre-order now on the US Sony store, expect it to hit other retailers soon.

嗯....Sony 4K下載服務7月15日正式開始，提供4K電影、4K電視影集與4K短片；4K電影下載一次7.99美元，可以觀看24小時；購買的話則是29.99美元....

有點好奇，既然是下載服務，花7.99美元只能在24小時內觀看，顯然超過24小時就不能看了，是否是花29.99美元可以永久保存無限觀看次數，只花7.99美元的檔案會在24小時內自動銷毀或失效？？

沒有消息指出4K電影可"實體商品化"嗎??
(BD裝不下了...??)

OK. Here is accurate info on the problem and the issue of the server working with the 1000ES and whether 1000ES owners will get $200 off on the server.

Sony will do home installs to 4K panel owners of the mods needed to make the server work with Sony 4K panels.

The $200 off is only applicable to 4K panel owners and is through the Sony panel division. So there is no point in registering for the discount if you own a 1000ES. The attempted registration will be ignored by the panel division.

Around Cedia time the server will be made to work with the 1000ES projectors. Whether a $200 off will apply to 1000ES owners is unknown. Whether the projector will need a modification and how, if so, that will be done is not known. I expect a modification will be necessary and I suspect there will be $200 off on the server. Whether there will be a cost for any modification is unknown.

That's the info I have. It is not speculation and I have verified it through appropriate channels which I can not disclose. Dealers and Sony personnel can not post this info but I have been given permission to disclose the info.

The present downside. Not much until the Sony content service goes to operational mode. What we give up as 1000ES owners is we can't watch the present preloaded content which based on reviewers who have seen it is of variable quality. That's it. That's what I know. I have no more info. So enjoy your summer without buying a server.
