4.0 out of 5 stars Better than "Fun View TV v. 1" for what it does, Oct 11 2007

This review is from: Fireplaces, Fishtank & Lava (DVD)
This is a DVD containing 5 short videos, each about 30 minutes long. They are closeups of a two fireplaces (classic and modern), a campfire, a saltwater aquarium, and a lava lamp. The fire and fishtank videos are excellent, in sharp focus and with good, realistic sound quality. There are many active fish in the aquarium, plus some coral and a shrimp. While the DVD is standard def (480i), everything looks pretty good on an HDTV with a quality upconverter in the TV or DVD player. If you want a DVD with fireplaces and an aquarium, this is a good choice.

In comparison to the "Fun View TV v. 1", the fireplaces are similar, and perhaps a little better on this disc. "Fun View" only has one fireplace, equivalent to the "classic" on this disc, and the video of it is only 2 1/2 minutes long. "Fun View" has a single goldfish against a white background instead of an aquarium, and has goofy sound effects instead of the aquarium's realistic pump and filter noises. Both discs have a lava lamp. (I'd have preferred a freshwater aquarium.) This disc is a clear winner over "Fun View" in the "fireplaces and fish" department.

However, "Fun View" does have a lot more variety of TV "screensavers". Most of them are literally computer-style screensavers (zooming starfield, snowscape, etc.), and are literally computer-generated. Many are a static image with a computer-generated foreground (for example, the snowscape is a picture of some snow-covered trees, with computer-generated snowflakes falling in front of the picture). They're well-done, but do look a little fake. There are a couple of oddballs, such as the video of the running microwave. Plus there are seasonal ones, such as a jack-o-lantern with lightning in the background. They might be useful to play as a sort of animated decoration for a party. For variety at the expense of quality, "Fun View" is a reasonable choice.

Since neither is terribly expensive, a third option is to simply get both.

5.0 out of 5 stars I'm warmer... I am!, Jan 19 2009

This review is from: Fireplaces, Fishtank & Lava (DVD)
This is the second fireplace DVD we've purchased. The first was a disappointing thing with horrid music that you couldn't turn off, of which there was no mention on the label. We wanted to have a "crackling" fire, and that's what we got with this Vjworld DVD. We played it during our family Christmas parties, as we do not have a fireplace in our great room. People said they felt warmer when it was on - I thought it was only in my head, so this was confirmation for me that I wasn't going crazy. The fire is mesmerizing, as well as gorgeous and calming. I noticed people just staring into it as the festivities were going on, and several of them asked where we bought it. The aquarium is also beautiful and calming; I'm sure we'll get more use out of it in the warmer months. We watched for quite a while, trying to see where the loop started over, and never did see a repeat.
We enjoy the fire in the evenings while we read - so cozy - all it lacks is the wonderful smell of a wood fire (got a wood-wick candle for this). I wasn't sure that we'd ever use the lava lamp - we are a little past our "groovy" stage, but our baby granddaughter just loved it! Highly recommended.
