Hi, I'm new to dvd porn, just got my player a few monthes ago and I need some of the best of the best (ie the matrix for regular movies) incredible picture with a lot of options or interactivity that really make dvd shine and make vhs look utterly inferior. Are there any titles like this? I'm also tyring to get it to show off to my friend. He is very into this stuff and the more it's appealing to him the more he'll buy the more I can borrow So I need some GOOD suggestions please. I'm sure you guys get the idea, also I appreciate for myself too and many thanks in advance!!

In porn? Damn..that is hard to say. It really varies. There are lots of good studios out there..and it is now that they are getting in touch with dvd. Killer studios are Diabolic, Private and Wicked. Every studio has something good, but the ones I just mentioned have the delicious looking HOT sex on screen with their great sharp on screen image. You can have a title with alllllllll the features you ever desired..and your stuck with a flick that will make your dick flimsy from 3:00PM to 5:00PM. Yeah two hours of..I can't believe I bought this Vivid title! <a href>

scarab007: Welcome to ADT!
I'd recommend these titles as DVD demos:
* Electric Sex: Collector's Edition (Digital Sin) - Wonderful menus, audio commentary, complete deleted scene, outtakes, trailer, special effects reel - it's one of the best DVDs for extra features, in fact, it won for Best DVD Extras in the last AVN Awards.
* DMJ6: Devil in Miss Jones 6 (VCA) - one of the flagship DVDs from VCA, lots of extras and a great overall DVD.
* Private: Millenium (Private) - A great compilation of complete scenes from Private's 10 year history of adult videos. It's a super value with high quality video and I highly recommend it for anyone who's never seen a Private feature. It's a "best of" video and a guided tour, all in one.
* Ritual (VCA) or Pin-Ups 2 (Studio A) - These two tie for the best A/V quality of the adult DVDs I've seen. Nearly flawless video and audio that rival mainstream discs.
That's my short list of porn to demo to make VHS look like the telegraph. Most of those discs are on the pricey side, but they're well worth it, and in this industry, you often get what you pay for.
Hope that helps,
Saki

Thanks for the help! I totally agree with you sonic about how good a porn is depends greatly on your mood . I think electric sex looks like a good choice with all the extra's and menu you described, just a quick question on the video quality also? (How is it? ) (Any chance of multiple angles? ) Thanks again!

Porn is in fullframe 1.33.1
Some a few, are in widescreen mode..like Pin Ups 2 which is about 1.78:1, though it is not anamorphic...meaning when played on a 16X9 television, you won't get the extra 33% resolution, but I believe you also won't get the black bars because the widescreen image height is good for such a set.
...............
Forgot to mention VCA and Digital Playground as great studios on dvd.

Woops...Pin Ups 2 is 1:78.1 mixed with 1:33.1. Sorry about that.

Scarab: The A/V quality of Electric Sex is top notch...I believe it was digitally edited and transferred to the master directly from the computer, so it's extremely high quality.
Here's my review of that title: [url=467384]https://www.adultdvdtalk.com/redesign/reviews/Read_Review.asp?sku=81</A
BTW, like Sonic said, nearly all porn is 1.33:1. There are some directors and studios that are starting to do widescreen releases (letterboxed, not 16x9 enhanced). Private is the only studio that I've seen that is consistently releasing all of their new features on widescreen DVDs. Some of the top-notch directors (such as Michael Ninn and Andrew Blake) are experimenting with mixing widescreen shots with full-frame, but I haven't seen anything from them that is 100% widescreen yet.

Hey Scarab-
Just want to add one more recommendation to the list... it seems like I'm one of the few people on this board that actually likes beautiful women with breast implants (i.e. Jenna Jameson) so I wholeheartedly stand behind FLASHPOINT (Wicked Studios) as my favorite adult DVD. Top notch picture and sound quality, director's commentary, trailers, stills, bios, and behind the scenes footage round out the package. Can't go wrong unless you dislike Jenna!

I'd agree with the recommendation of Flashpoint, except that the behind-the-scenes documentary has perhaps the worst A/V quality I've ever seen on a DVD--it looks like a 4th generation EP dub of a cheap videocassette recorded by a plain old VHS consumer camcorder. I can't explain why, since the A/V of the movie itself is outstanding.
Generally a good, loaded disc, although it definitely helps if you like Jenna, since it's her star vehicle.

Thanks a lot guys, I'm goign to get electric sex tomorrow and look into flash point also. I really appreciate your help so far, its made me feel less blind making choices and possibly getting a bad first experience. Also how are the "virtual sex" videos, they seem like they offer a lot of options to them to actually make you feel part of the ... experience ?

As far as only virtual sex dvds, they offer lots of features..you decide. You wanna see her blowjob you..you wanna see her get fucked...it's pretty cool.
I only have one, and that is Jewel De'Nyle..and the doggystyle position on that disc is HOT. The transfer? The best one I've seen todate on adult dvd. This is just my opinion, but there's a couple out there. I prefer your basic watch man fuck girl type, yeah..straight. <a href>
