    "Medium" goes 3-D in November

    I agree with Marty about the 3D effect. I was about half asleep when the guy threw the meat cleaver and I just about came off the sofa. I decided to wake up for the rest but it was ho-hum after that.

    DVD player w/prog scan and DVI out?

    It is the Cyberhome CH-DVD655. I bought it at Wal-mart figuring if it didn't work out I would return it but I have been pleasantly surprised. It looks better than my DVD player/recorder (Toshiba) running through component cables.

    DVD player w/prog scan and DVI out?

    The Cyberhome uses HDMI for the output. I have had one for about 2 weeks and have been very pleased with it considering the price. I have it hooked up to my DVI input on my tv using a HDMI to DVI adapter.

    Ever stopped watching a good show because you couldn't stand ONE character?

    Horatio Caine (David Caruso). I stoped watching CSI:Miami because of him. He is just weird, especially when he is around small children. The way he bends down and almost whispers to kids just gives me cold chills. He is just too creepy. I would get a restrianing order if he tried to work a case...

    24 Season 4 ongoing thread (Merged)

    That was by far the worse season finale of 24 yet. The last 40 minutes it seemed like the writers said "DOH! We have to come up with a finish now". All the other season finales had you feeling like you had been on a roller coaster by the time the final clock ticked away. This year it was like...

    The reason they can get through LA so quick is they coordinate everything with the CTU Special Agent in Charge of the Space/Time Continuum.;)

    Will Ferrell to star in "Land of the Lost" film

    I can remember watching as a kid and the Sleestacks scaring the crap out of me. Watching them as an adult makes me realize I was a very stupid kid.;)

    Star Wars - Clone Wars cartoon

    I screwed up on the re-airing of Clone Wars this week on Cartoon Network. The link that I connected to Cartoon Network's schedule was for Buenos Aires. :frowning: I can't believe I blew it that bad. It was in English and I thought I was on the USA site. Sorry for all those who like me ran home...

    Is this normal....? Please help!

    I have the same Akai TV and it was set up in torch mode out of the box. After using DVE to set brightness, contrast, tint, and color I don't notice the hotspotting now. It was very obvious when using the standard setup. I have been very pleased with this low cost TV but you have to work with it...

    Finally HD

    N.C.I.S. on CBS, American Idol and House on Fox tonight. Don't know what is on on NBC. American Idol and Fox both look good with OTA HDTV.

    I'm very desapointed with the Akai PT4299HD...

    I have had this TV for about 2 weeks now and have been very pleased with it. Out of the box the Contrast and Brightness were way off and there was too much red push. I used the Sound and Vision Home Theater Tuneup DVD to setup and the picture looks great. If you don't have a setup disc try the...

    I had the body count at 9 also. Everyone has had more kills than Jack lately, including the terror kid with the shovel and then offing his Dad in the basement. He almost had a two for one with the follow through at Jack. I enjoyed last night's episode very much and think the rest of the season...

    CSI: Miami season 3 ongoing thread

    Does anyone else's skin crawl when H talks to a small child? If he was to come near my children I would instruct them to run away as fast as possible. This season just isn't doing it for me either so it is off my TIVO season pass.

    Did Jack eat to many burritos the night before or did he just need to wash his hands after a little torture. Four seasons in and this is his first call of nature. Jack's the man...kills bad guys with his bare hands and has a bladder the size of Lake Erie.

    I am really enjoying this season, especially since Jack has started upping the body count. The security issues at CTU are pretty ridiculous but they have been since season 1. I was very excited to see what happened at the end but it also made me wonder? Tony's back!!!! But Tony must of been...

    I was on the phone with my brother complaining that I had gone though several hours without Jack shooting anyone. I felt so much better when Jack went for the double with the sniper rifle. Jack is going to have to kick it in gear if he is going to stay ahead on the Sec of Defense.

    Quick DVD-R Question!

    If the DVD Recorder has a pause on the remote it will pause the DVD-R. For example, if you want to cut out the commercials from a program just hit pause when the commercial starts and then pause or record (depends on the recorder) to start again. The only problem is if you hit pause at the wrong...
