I was a day one collector for HD-DVD picking up the Toshiba A1 (Tank) from Movietyme. Always loved the red cases and “The look and sound of perfect”.
But after the end of the format wars losing to Blu-Ray, CBHD Chinese High Definition was formed from the ashes.

I’ve searched for many many years to pickup a disc or a player (if lucky). And thanks to Marco (FB) I have finally managed to source stuff.
Utilising much of the HD-DVD format specifications and using DVD production lines, I have always been intrigued with this format and Warner Bros really got behind it with a large catalogue.
In this video I’ll give a brief outline of what CBHD is / was and show you the discs I’ve sourced and also the player. And let’s hook it up, see what it does and play a disc.
