    Progressive DVD question

    Thanks guys! Just got a new Gladiator disc and all is well :) Funny that it plays fine in my SD3205 but not in the 5700(guess it is too picky). Yes I have the option of flipping back and forth on the pro/inter. Now that I have done that while watching From Hell, I see the difference. Thanks...

    Progressive DVD question

    Yes I am using the colorstream connections and I do have the progressive active (switched to "P" on back of player). But more importantly, is the processor the same for 3/2 pulldown in my Tosh 65hx81 and Tosh 5700? Or maybe I am just confused again on the whole progressive thing :frowning...

    Disc problem on SD5700

    Thanks Jon. I think I will try a brand new Gladiator disc and see what happens before I decide to return the 5700. I purchased the 5700 in hopes that it would be the right fit for my new Tosh 65hx81. I have been reading that the progressive processor will be better than the internal one on...

    Progressive DVD question

    Maybe I should of posted this earlier before I made my purchase of my Tosh sd5700. Since I have a Tosh 65hx81 and it performs internally what a progressive does and since it is also a Tosh, did I waste my money in purchasing the DVD player? It would look like the same processors would be in the...

    Disc problem on SD5700

    I just recently upgraded my DVD player to the progressive 5700. I have been playing it constantly and came across a problem with one DVD. I tried to watch Gladiator and kept getting a disc error. I tried the accompaning "extra" DVD and it played. The problem disc plays okay in my Tosh sd3205...

    Any feedback on Pioneer VSXD811S

    Well I hope I upgraded my sound system by making this purchase. I did have a Sony STRDE345(I know, my stupidity in not knowing HT). I am using the included speaker package that came with the Sony DE345. I plan on using my 65hx81 speakers as my center and wondered if this is wise? And if...

    Need some answers for HT newb

    So there are several variations that I may run into. So looking at my DVDs that are amorphic, I should have my DVD in 16x9 and my tv setting on widescreen or full? Non-amorphic DVDs should be set up with my DVD player in 16x9 and my set in widescreen, which result in black bars. I think I...

    Need some answers for HT newb

    I forgot to ask about my sound system. I have a Sony STR-DE345 receiver and the SA-VE230 Micro satellite system(purchased as a package). Coupled with my Toshiba 65HX81 and my Toshiba SD-5700 DVD, will this sound system be good enough? I know that there are better sound systems but I just...

    Need some answers for HT newb

    Thanks! I did not know the anamorphic DVDs differed from the ones marked letterbox. Why did they make it so confusing? There probably are alot of people thinking that,by owning a 16x9 tv, they will see the whole screen filled with a 16x9 DVD.

    Okay, I am new at this and have a couple of questions regarding my inital try of setting up my system. I have a Toshiba 65hx81 and just purchased a Toshiba sd5700 DVD player(improving on my Toshiba sd3205). I have been reading that progressive scan is better than the internal processing on...
