Hi all, For those that have the Yamaha DVD-C920 changer or equivalent, is there a way to power the changer on and off remotely by programming a learning remote? thanks!
Hi all, I have a 4:3 ratio Samsung hdtv. When watching DVDs in wide mode, the black bar at the top is thicker than the black bar at the bottom. Does this mean there needs to be an adjusment? If so, what needs to be adjusted? Thanks, Naddy
Hi all, Can anyone tell me if the JVC XV-FA900 dvd changer will do random play across all 7 discs when using CDs or will it only do random play per individual discs? Thanks, Naddy
Hi all, I have a receiver that has DTS:Neo6 capability, but I only have a 5.1 speaker system hooked up to the receiver. Can I still utilize DTS:Neo6, or do I need to have 6 speakers hooked up to the receiver? Thanks for the help! Naddy
I apoligize for the confusion. The coaxial out is your regualr video cable video connection, and I have both the rca composite video out and the L/R audio out connections.
Hi all, I am a little confused about NBC's broadcasts of ER and Kingpin in letterbox form? What type of broadcast is that? And what picture mode is optimal for that on the TV? Thanks, Naddy
Thanks for the help! I only have a coaxial out and then the rca composite out (which is what I'm using). By the way, I have AT&T digital cable, do you know if it is possible to request an upgrade on the digital cable box to one that does have a digital out? Thanks!
Hi all, My digital cable box has composite connections coming out that I connected to my a/v receiver. My question is, what type of sound is coming out of the cable box? I guess it depends on what is being broadcast by that particular station? But is it always stereo sound, is it sometimes...
Hi all, First off I'm not sure if the following problem is due to overscan or geometry, but the scoretickers and news tickers on espn and cnn at the bottom of the screen are slightly cut off on my tv. Is that geometry or overscan? Regardless, I ran the overscan pattern from avia, and it...
My tv has 2-tuner PIP, and I assume the second tuner is internal, but I may be wrong. So, normally PIP would work fine, except with the digital cable box, it only outputs channel 3 to the tv, while the rest of the channels are scrambled and therefore the converter box is needed. I'm just...
Hi all, Do I have any options to get 2-tuner PIP to work when using digital cable. I don't believe my box has a composite video out to connect to a receiver either. Also, my tv has only one coax connection. Is there any way to get PIP to work with this setup? Also, if I have my cable from...
Hi all, When calibrating your subwoofer level, does it make a difference whether you adjust the level through the receiver or the gain level on the actual subwoofer? Is there a difference between the two? Thanks, Naddy
Hi all, I was just messing around with the sound modes on my receiver, and I noticed that if I use the receiver tuner to listen to FM radio and set the sound mode to dolby pro logic II, I don't really hear anything coming out of the right and left suround speakers in a 5.1 setup, is that...
Hi all, I had a quesiton about the advanced video calibration on the Sound & Vision HTT DVD. Do you need tools to perform those calibrations or how do you do it, what do you adjust? The DVD didn't seem to explain it? Also, I realize Avia has extra video calibration tests than the Sound &...
Well, I guess what I'm really asking is: I have a receiver that has the dts:neo6 music and cinema modes, however I only have a 5.1 speaker system hooked up to the receive, so what actually happens if I try to listen to these dts:neo6 modes with only a 5.1 speaker system? Thanks for any help!
Hi all, I had a question concerning the calibration of a samsung hdtv using the S&V HTT. With the samsung, you can only adjust the contrast, brightness etc... under the custom mode, so basically you can only save one setting at a time. So, should you just calibrate the tv to look best when...
Thanks for the response! Here is my situation: basically, I normally could not afford a mid to upper level quality receiver, however, I can get such a good deal on the sovereign equipment, it is now affordable to me. I already have the Infinity Modulus speaker system, so that is a moot point...
Hi all, I've been lurking for a while but this is my first post, so I just want to say that this is a great forum with a wealth of information. I posted similar questions on another forum but did not receive many replies, so I apoligize in advance to anyone reading this twice. Just some...
