DVD Reviews of Fireplace: Visions of Tranquility [Blu-ray]

DVD Review: Terrible. Don't waste you money!
Summary: 1 Stars

I don't know how you could mess this up, but they did. Like everyone else I wanted a nice fireplace scene in 1080p. What I got was something my grandma would record and give to me. Every one of the fireplace selections is zoomed in and not very different in configuration. How hard would it be to produce several scenes of beautiful fireplace settings rumbling in high quality uncompressed audio? It's obvious they produced a low budget product hoping it would sell simply because it's released in Blu-Ray format. Don't buy this. I recommend buying a fireplace scene on upscaled DVD until a respectable product is released on Blu-Ray.

DVD Review: Firellace: visions of tranquility blu-ray
Summary: 5 Stars

I don't have a fireplace nor do I have room to put one, so I pop this disc in" presto changeo ". I have a nice calming fire, no mess to clean and I don't have to wait for it to go out so I can go to bed. What a GREAT Idea !!

DVD Review: Not bad, not great
Summary: 4 Stars

I bought this specifically knowing the issues with blu-ray playback on this particular disc on the PS3, which I use as my blu-ray player, and went through the steps to get the replacement disc from the HDScape website and have had a good amount of time to watch the fireplaces. The quality is quite good, though not 1080P good, on the fires. And I of course like having the music in the background. If you want a simulated fire on your screen, this will do. Its nothing amazing but not too bad.

DVD Review: 2 copies, neither worked on my PS3...
Summary: 1 Stars

I preordered this because I have been eagerly awaiting an HD quality fireplace experience but it will not play on the PS3... can't speak for other Blu Ray players. After getting a replacement from Amazon it had the same problem so I need to send both back and get a refund. Odd that my HDScape fish tank works fine... probably a small company without a Quality Assurance department.

DVD Review: Waiting...
Summary: 3 Stars

The last reviewer is accurate when he said it does not work on the Sony PS3. If you go to the "HDscape" website they will offer you a free replacement disc that will work on the PS3. They stated something was wrong with the encoding process and that it should be fixed in all future releases of the Fireplace disc.

As far as the quality, I have no idea as I am waiting to get a replacement disc. Hope this helps.

Description of Fireplace: Visions of Tranquility [Blu-ray]

Introducing Fireplace: Visions of Tranquility Blu-ray Disc, shot in High Definition and created specifically for your high definition home theater. Four different fireplace flames allow the viewer to choose a fire and soundtrack to set the right mood. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the dancing flames and crackling roar of Fireplace.

HDScape: Advancing the Art of HD

HDScape is the leading producer of High Definition discs that turn your Plasma, LCD, CRT or DLP HDTV home theater system into a work of art.

The idea of watching a fire on TV may seem kitschy, but it's surprisingly soothing. Fireplace: Visions of Tranquility takes you through the entire life of a fire from the scrape of the match to the slowly dying embers. You can choose whether you would like just the fire, the fire with crackling sounds, the fire with music, or the fire with music and crackling sounds. For music, choose either "Night Music" (which includes Beethoven's "Moonlight" sonata and Pachelbel's famous Canon) or "Christmas Goes Baroque" (which features classical arrangements of familiar tunes).

For a holiday party or just a quiet night at home, Fireplace: Visions of Tranquility adds a nice ambiance to a room. --Dana Van Nest
