    Help with HDTV tuner, can't get a signal

    I compared split screens of The District (HD vs. standard) as well as Law and Order SVU and while I can see a noticeable enough difference, it's not as mindblowing as people have said it is. Could it be my cabling? I'm using the standard cheapo Acoustic Research Component cables that I had...

    Really quick Q: Which channels broadcast in which format?

    Just a quick question on which network channels broadcast in 720p and which ones do in 1080i. Reason being I bought a HDTV tuner, hooked it up and turned to ABC (Dr. Dolittle). Compared screens vs. regular TV and wasn't blown away like I thought I was going to be. Then I think I read that ABC...

    Help with HDTV tuner, can't get a signal

    Ok, guys did all that and it works! Well somewhat. I copied down the channels from TitanTV and inputed them into my tuner. It picked up the majority of them (UPN, WB, and PBS didn't, but got CBS, NBC, Fox, ABC). A few of the channels will lag momentarily, but I'm thinking that's based more on...

    Help with HDTV tuner, can't get a signal

    I live in a residental part of the town, with no tall buildings with a few trees in the area. On antennaweb it shows everything being in the yellow to green area. I'm comparing antennaweb to the Zenith website and one thing I noticed is that on antennaweb it shows the majority of the channels I...

    Well my Samsung SIR-T151 came today and after hooking the system up, I cannot receive any signal at all. Here is my setup. I have the Samsung unit connected to my Mitsubishi 55" HDTV via component cables and into the inputs marked DTV. I purchased the Zenith Silver Sensor antenna and have...

    Your opinions of the Samsung SIR-T151 HDTV receiver?

    Thanks for all the help guys! I'll get back to you on Fri/Sat when I get the receiver if I have any problems. I just bought the Silver Sensor antenna today, not bad for $18.

    Your opinions of the Samsung SIR-T151 HDTV receiver?

    Oh, so am I correct when I say Silver Sensor Antenna (the Zenith one correct?) connected via coaxial cable to the T151. From the 151 has component running to the TV and a coax (or fiber optic) cable to my receiver for 5.1. And keep the cable running into my house running to my Tivo then to...

    Your opinions of the Samsung SIR-T151 HDTV receiver?

    I checked on antennaweb.org and it shows that all the channels that I want to receive are in the 10-11 mile range. I'm going to give this one a shot with an indoor antenna. Any suggestions on one? Also how would this connect to my HT in conjuction with my Tivo? I'm guessing from the...

    Sony DVP-CX985, Production halted?

    Anyone else add pictures to your title? I know it takes more time, but I'm starting to add a picture of the menu screen to accompany the description. One thing I notice that I don't like is that WB DVDs will autoname your DVD for you and not allow you to edit the title. Sort of annoying when...

    Looking for a player that handles DVD+/-R media

    That's strange because my RP-82 which only says DVD-R on the front will play back DVD-R and DVD+R with no problems. Maybe it's your media?

    Your opinions of the Samsung SIR-T151 HDTV receiver?

    I'm on the verge of buying this unit from another member of the HTF and I'm wondering if I'm making a good purchase or not. At this point in time I only have regular basic cable (2-13 + HBO and Encore). I have no plans on upgrading to digital cable or DirecTV (too many trees near my house)...

    Sony DVP-CX985, Production halted?

    I just picked mine up today at Best Buy. I work there, so I got a great deal on it. I went in search of them yesterday and today. At the store that I work at they only have the display model and one open box unit. I didn't want to take a chance with this being a multi-disc changer and all, so I...

    FS: Panasonic RP-82 Region free modified

    I'm looking to see if anyone would interested in a Panasonic RP-82, that's been region free modified by JVB Digital. I still have the original box and remote, but I'm not sure if I still have the manual. I hate to get rid of this bad boy, but I'm looking to add the Sony 400 DVD mega changer into...
