How are you going to watch the shorts

[kurtmo]

In another post I talked about issues with Quicktime viewer on the PC. I thought I'd take a little informal sample on how people plan to watch the films.

I plan to use VLC and MediaPlayerClassic if I'm watching on my PC. Otherwise I'll throw them on a drive and watch them on my LCD TV using a Western Digital Media Player.

What will you use?

Hadn't even thought of this issue - Eagerly awaiting consensus...

I download the whole packages & then watch em on my PS3 & TV. :)

I actually managed to watch quite a few on my iPad last fest with a set of headphones.

I usually watch the finalists on something larger, TV or Home Theatre.

Should be fun. :)

I download them all and use a WD Media Player to watch on the big screen.

If I'm on my laptop, I'll probably use VLC as I can set up a playlist. If I'm in my studio, then I'll probably go the WD Media Player route as well. I've had it for a while, but only recently have I discovered how easy it is to load content onto since it is on the same ethernet network as my computer! I used to have my computer hooked up to my LCD TV, but not anymore.

I like to batch convert and send them over to my Apple TV. Then I can watch them on my big screen :)

[Richard J. Johnson]

I watch them on my mac.

Laptop/12' screen/1080p DLP projection in my HT. ;-)

Or...on my iPad.

(can we have bigger file sizes or host on vimeo to get at least decent 720p? I know, call the waaahmbulance!)

I will hopefully be watching the shorts drunk at a Halloween party.

[Charli]

I'm going to watch the shorts wearing my boxer shorts, duh.

[2062ad]

I figure I'll just watch them 1 at a time

[Richard J. Johnson]

Why have I never heard of this WD media Player?! I'm going to buy one of those mofos today.

I really like my WD Media Player. When the HMC-150 came out I picked one up. It was perfect because it could decode the HMCs MTS streams, which are coded in H264 High Profile.

Me too! I download all the films and head to the livingroom for a great evening.

I normally throw em on my Apple TV and watch on the big screen in the living room.

[Derkoi]

I'm now gathering my film making buddies at my house, having a few drinks & watching all 26 films on a 50" TV, since the other half and kids are away for the week. :)

[kurtmo]

Couldn't "borrow" the projector I'd wanted too. Now gotta transport LCD TV around arghh.
