If its on mobile devices, VLC & MX players can pretty much handle the encoding.

As for PC, at times VLC software handles the encoding, but my best bet is ANY VIDEO CONVERTER software, it a conversion software though but it also has an option to play videos and so far so good, it has conveniently handled any video encoding I've thrown at it.

As for TVs or DVDs I don't quite have a clue, my DVD only plays the AVI encoding....this is all for the AMZN WEB-DL x265 HEVC.
VLC and MX player can of course, it boils down to the phone specs and capabilities... I once tried to play Aquaman (True Blu ray rip Untouched with Dolby 6Ch.10bit 1080p) on a mid range android phone with MX player..omo if you see dragging.

Any PC above 2gig of Ram (Type of Graphics card also matters) should be fine with most 720p encodes with VLC or Gom player.

DVD these days will play avi (anyone still encodes in this?), mkv ( WEB-DL) x265 HEVC and even MP4...( High end DVD tho)

For TV, older generation of led and Lcd tv will not play (WEB-DL) x265, just MP4, avi and Normal Mkv encodes..but the newer model are quite the beast in terms of playing variety of encodes with little fuss, some of these TVs have os that are updated regularly to match any encode.. But you will spend lots of data..example lets take Aquaman with all the stunning visuals, for your tv you will have to download the 1080p or 4k source which should range from around 4gb - 7gb for just the movie alone...then if you want to enjoy surround sound, you have to download the True Dolby Atmos HD file which should be around 1.2gb for just sound o ! Amounting to about 8.2gb for 1 movie! sad

Skeleton Key

Horror and mystery. Edge of the seat stuff. One of the most shocking endings I've seen in a while. This is how horror should be done. Highly recommend.

8/10
I just finished watching this movie. I don't know what else to say. Truly 8/10.

SPOILER! SPOILER!! SPOILER FOR AVENGERS!!!

So Marvel has begun privately screening the first 20-30 minutes or so of this film to select groups of people in my area. Most of what they’ve shown to anyone was in house or to critics until recently.


I won’t say more than that other than I personally know someone who was selected that was able to get me in there as well. This is way too long to post in here but whatever. Yes, I took notes. Here goes.
The movie opens to the harsh continuous beep of an emergency broadcast over the Marvel Studios logo. Same one from the Antman and the Wasp post-credits scene reading “THIS IS NOT A TEST. THERE IS A STATE OF EMERGENCY IN EFFECT. PLEASE STAND BY FOR FURTHER INSTRUCTIONS.”


Whole screen is a shot of that for a few seconds. Cut to the Barton farm. Clint is away from the family picnic teaching his daughter some archery. He jokes that the 30th time is the charm, to stay steady and not even think about it. She nails the center of the target. He and his daughter have a funny back and forth about who the better archer will be when she gets a better trainer. Clint turns his back to her for a moment expecting a response to his quip.



He turns back around, and she isn’t there. Clint looks amused for a second. He calls out her name, looks behind the tree. Nothing. He quickly begins to panic, asking his wife if she’s seen her, that she was just with him. Laura has no clue. They frantically search around the house to no avail.



Clint turns to see his two younger sons reduced to ash in front of him. Clint runs out of the room to Laura who also slowly turns to ash in his arms. Clint, in utter shock, walks into the living room where the tv is blaring the aforementioned emergency broadcast. “THIS IS NOT A TEST.”



Back on Earth, Wakandans mourn their lost loved ones. We get a pretty emotional sequence there. The remaining Avengers gather themselves in the lab that was used to protect Vision in IW. Shuri has been dusted obviously. Okoye vows to do whatever she can to help them. Their wounds are attended to. Banner sits in stunned silence as does Rhodey. Rocket holds back tears.



Thor groans that he “had him.” Cap responds that it’s no one’s fault and that they have to get back home, regroup, and try to find whoever’s left. That they can still help. Natasha ponders what they could’ve done differently, to which Rhodey responds “it doesn’t matter now, we lost.” Thor also mentions that while he regrets not going for the kill, he still managed to hurt Thanos badly.


Bruce is given all the information Shuri collected on Vision and the mind stone before they head out, but it’s said to be encrypted.


Cut to Tony and Pepper in a massive church standing in front of each other on the altar in full wedding getup. This entire scene plays very dreamlike, kind of unsettling.


All the Avengers, including those who were snapped, sit in the pews smiling and conversing. Happy stands behind Pepper with a baby nestled in his arms, who we can only assume is Morgan. The priest reads through the usual vows. Tony smiles and says I do.



The Avengers cheer as they turn to ash. Tony looks into the crowd to see Peter die again. Happy and Morgan fade to ash as well. Tony is visibly horrified. Pepper gets dusted before she can say I do as Tony screams and we cut to him waking up from this nightmare in the Benatar, shaken.



Nebula asks if he’s ok. He brushes it off and says he just dreamt that they didn’t make it back, complains “gosh it’s cold in here.” Nebula mentions that the heaters stopped working too. Much of the ship was heavily damaged in the battle on Titan. It’s also mentioned that the ship can no longer jump travel. Something about missing parts and some coils being burnt to a crisp.



Very pseudosciencey as per usual in superhero films. From here, we jump into a relatively fun montage of Tony and Nebula passing the time playing paper football and hard at work repairing the Benatar, played to the tune of Dear Mr. Fantasy. Tony jokes if they could use some of Nebula’s parts to “speed this up.” Nebula gives Tony some sort of medicinal concoction for an infection he got from the wound in his abdomen.




This is the opening sequence critics got to see last week. I’m assuming the rest was obviously deliberately cut out for those screenings. Some scenes for this screening may have been cut or reshuffled as well.



Tony and Nebula manage to get the heaters back up but fail to restore jump travel. They are quickly running out of food, water, and oxygen as mentioned in the trailers. The montage ends as we cut to New York. Desolate. Shots of looters and protesters. A guy holding up a sign of some bible verse while yelling that there is still time to repent. Most of the remaining Avengers are present in the facility, save Thor and Rocket. Bruce studies Fury’s pager as they surround him.


Natasha mentions it was recovered by police and brought to them, along with some of Fury’s other belongings. They had no idea what or who it was for and that it kept turning on and off.
This is the problem Bruce is hoping to fix if they can bypass the battery as mentioned in the mid-credits scene for Captain Marvel. He says it’ll take him some time.



The rest of this scene is a lot of the same stuff we’ve seen from the trailers. Nat’s line about Thanos doing exactly what he said he was gonna do. That he wiped everyone out. And that they have no idea where he could possibly be. It’s also mentioned here that they’re working under the assumption that Tony is dead. Nat says Clint tried reaching out to her but has gone ghost since. She is determined to find him. Cap is willing to help while Rhodey thinks it’s better that they stick together for now. Bruce yells off-screen “Got it!” Nat quips that that wasn’t a lot of time. Bruce says he never said he would need a lot. The signal will stay on for now.


Cut back to Tony as he sits in silence on the floor of the Benatar. He is exhausted and emaciated. This where he records his message to Pepper. Sad as you can imagine. They’ve been stranded in space for weeks now, and he fully expects to die. “When I drift off, I’ll dream about you. It’s always you Pep.” Tony rummages around for clothes, throwing on a red long sleeve. He slumps into the passenger seat of the ship as Nebula walks in. He asks her if she got all that to which she responds “yeah.” Tony mentions that it feels weird “stealing” Quill’s clothes. He says something along the lines of “I saw him turn into dust. All of them. Plus we never really got along you know”. Nebula can relate. They have a funny and endearing heart to heart where Tony thanks her for her help in at least trying.




The last scene of the footage we were shown is basically just the mid-credits scene from CM. The signal from the pager finally “craps out” and they turn to see her arrive.

Wow!! That's quite massive, most True Blu ray rip Untouched 10bit 1080p are at least 8gb+ & most mid-end phones wouldn't even play it, that's why I basically go for movies whose video codec are MPEG-H/HEVC(H.256) or H264-MPEG-4 AVC & audio codec MPEG AAC audio. Trust me, the difference between the 8gb+ files & my 150mb+ files if there be any, will be very minimal & its playable on almost even low & medium end phones.

But seriously, you guys that download a single movie for as much as 8gb are really trying, if it's a game, its ok for me, but a single movie for that size, I day crase?, even if I had access to free WIFI network or a tweak, my conscience would never allow me, knowing fully well I can get as much as 20+ movies with that same size, and besides, its the same plot. The highest size i can spare on a single movie download, before the advent of the HEVC codec was 500mb & the movie had to be great like infinity war & fast & furious kinda great, anything less than that is below 500mb for me. And secondly, i archive most of my good movies on my HDD, so downloading movies with a massive size of 1gb+ to my drive would mean less space & less movies on my HDD.
Pls would you be kind enough to recommend a high end DVD player for me?

lol true that bro..i don't even chase size, i chase quality and often times both don't correlate..once saw The Equalizer 2 1080 p with file size of over 1 gb from tpdlll isshh site people use, the quality was that of 480p when i saw it, i was sorely disappointed. The site i use Value Quality over size so the size might be small but the quality would be worth the while. I only pursue the highest quality for movies with great "re watch" value to save data and money.. For any other movie file size ranging from 300mb to 900mb for movies will do, and series 100mb to 400mb will suffice, heck i have two HDD of 1tb and 500gb respectively and they are both full to the brim...so am actually chasing movies with smaller mb per say but not compromising quality..

For 4kUHD Tv with movies less than 1GB (1080p) it will be so blurry and it will spoil the fun of getting the tv i tell you, so if you get such Tv be ready to spend hell on data to enjoy it, is truly a site to behold on these tvs e.g If you see Netflix's Our Planet nature show on a 4kUHD Tv from 4k source file or 1080p, omo you will fall in love..the colours are so vivid and true...but Data Killer!

For High end DVD, Dvd players are really going out of style in these parts, hardly seen anyone buy Blu ray cds or DVDs (i know those 40 in 1 still exist sha lol)..so most times people go for Smart DVD players, LG is the cheapest, thier High end DVD should play x265 encodes, avoid samsung and sony, always overpriced..

Alright, tnx for the tip. I would definitely go for LG smart DVD, though I have one already, not high end though & it only plays movies in AVI codec, not even mp4, I had to convert some of my movies to AVI before I see 'em on the DVD, but the loss of quality is just too much, hence my reason for an upgrade.
