Yes I got my replacement disc and it works fine. I have not watched the entire movie start to finish, but I watch the "bad spot" a few times and it played perfectly. I also skipped around and watch various scenes and it seems OK. I will watch it again when my kids come out for Christmas. I...

No reply? Has this program died? Glad I got my replacement copy of "Hot Fuzz" !!!

I received my replacement copy of "Hot Fuzz" today. It appears to be brand new, but it had been opened. They told me that they test the replacement disc on the same type of HD DVD player before they ship it out to make sure it plays properly. I tested the disc today. My other copy had been...

STILL waiting for my replacement disc! :frowning: What's going on over there?

How long does it take to get the replacement disc? I mailed in "Hot Fuzz" last Monday night after the mail pick-up (Nov 5). Since I am in Bellevue WA, only 20 minutes from Microsoft, it would have gone out the next day and should have been delivered no later than Wednesday (Nov 7). As...

How are you testing the discs we send in? Unless you are watching them on the same machines we are having problems with, you may not get the same errors. For example, there is a thread at AVS forum where many people have reported having problems with certain HD DVD's when they played them...

OK .. I'll take a shot. I'm mailing in my copy of "Hot Fuzz" HD DVD combo disc today.

I had a problem last night with Hot Fuzz freezing at approximately 58 minutes into the movie. This is a repeatable problem as it freezes in he same place every time I play it in HD DVD. Are you still doing the exchange program? Should I send this in? Thanks, Steve UPDATE: Kevin...

I have decided to END ths sale early. I'm keeping my AE1000. Thanks to all who contacted me.

Awesome full HD 1080p LCD video projector! Like New Panasonic AE 1000. Only two months old (August 27) with only 116 hours on the bulb. It works GREAT! So why am I selling? Cause I want to upgrade AGAIN! I'm sick, I know, but my loss is your gain. I paid $2,700 (after the...

I have my PJ at 15 feet from the screen and now projecting to a 110" diagonal screen. There is plenty of room on the zoom to go bigger or smaller from that distance. I'm not sure what you are asking. Sounds like you are using a fairly wide angle lens as opposed to zoom to get the size pic you...

SOLD !!!!!

I think the PJ is sold, just waiting for the guy to show up with the cash.

I am in Seattle, WA

Sorry, my bad for not reading the rules. :frowning: Price has been posted in edited post above. BTW, my "for sale" thread at AVS has been edited too. ;) Not trying to pull any tricks here.

************ SOLD !! ************ Anybody interested in a used Panny AE700? I just upgraded to an AE1000. The AE700 has 1,355 hours on the lamp, so I can't honestly say how much life is left in it. I have been using "high" lamp power for most of those hours. Asking $400 I also...

Folllow up ... I got my AE700 yesterday. It's a great projector, much easier on my eyes due to lack of "rainbow effect." I used to get sore eyes, dizzy and/or headaches from watching the 4805. I will say that the colors seemed a bit brigher on the 4805 compared to the AE700, but they...

Sorry guys, I had it listed on Ebay and I sold it and shipped it out yesterday. I didn't have time to get back her to post.

Stephane, If you check the specs on the Pansonic AE700U it is about the same as the 4805, which is why I decided to make the move. Contrast ratio is the same, color is supposed to be excellent and I think blacks should be fine. From what I have read, the Pansonic AE700U is a MAJOR step...

UPDATE: This projector is SOLD!

I've been reading up on the new Panasonic AE700U and it sure looks good based on the reviews I have seen so far. In fact, I have decided to buy one! Anybody want to buy my 4805 for $1,200? I just posted a thread in the hardware for sale forum...

cabreau, Thanks for the input. Again, that sounds very encouraging. It sounds like I just have to wait until next year to get a real good quality upgrade. I have always heard that LCD projectors were not as good as DLP (although I am not sure why) but it sounds like LCD is gaining on DLP...

Stephane, Thanks for the info! That is encouraging. Do you have a link to that Samsung projector so I can see what you are talking about? BTW, I just found a Flash animation on the web that illustrates the dreaded "rainbow" effect on DLP projectors that some of us experience. Take a...

I have an InFocus 4805. It's an excellent PJ for the money, very good picture quality for only $1500. I love it. There's just one problem ... I am one of the people who sees "rainbows." My wife doesn't notice them (or at least she's never said anything and I'm not telling her!) and...

Darren, I have the NR-801 and you are right, it does get HOT. But that is normal. You should NOT be putting anything on top of your amplifer (like your hand) ... and give it LOTS of air. Why do you need to cool it down? Put it on a shelf with several inches of air space above it...

Jack, I have an InFocus 4805 in a basement room with the windows blacked out, so it works great. I use an InFocus video screen. But Stephen LA is correct, look at a white wall or put a pice of white paper on the wall where you will use the projector and make the room as dark as possible...

Where can I get more info about the "DLP headache problem"? I have an InFocus 4805 and I am one of the people who sees rainbows (unfortunately). I have also noticed that my eyes get very sore after watching it for awhile and may have been getting headaches without realizing it. I thought it...

I've been running my 4805 strictly on "Low Power" to minimize fan noise and preserve bulb life. I just saw some specs on a website that said the expected bulb life is the same for High Power and Low Power on the 4805. I can't believe that's correct. But if it is, it makes me think I should...

I have a 4805 and I see flashes of rainbows occassionally, typically when there is a scene rapidly moving from a white area to a very dark area, or vice versa. However, this is a very small deal, as you can tell, lots of people don't even notice it. I am SUPER picky ... I'm always staring...

Thanks for the hush box tips, but my PJ sits on a stand behind my couch. My wife did not want a permanent installation, so I don't think a hush box would be an option. The heat issue is not really that bad, we have had some unusually hot weather this summer in Seattle and I have been able to...
