    High End Touch Screen Remote - The perfect IPAD app?

    That is right. We are going to work on a template that can then be customized for each of our inidividual needs. I am pretty sure we are not going to go into the business of selling this product so I will probably just put it out for usage. That also means that I will not be looking to...

    High End Touch Screen Remote - The perfect IPAD app?

    Ok, I have my plan... I am going with the Command Fusion system and their iViewer app for the iPad. The costs will be about $120 for each Global Cache IP to IR appliance I want and $150 for the Command Fusion GUI designer kit. That plus the cost of an iPad and this system should be high...

    High End Touch Screen Remote - The perfect IPAD app?

    I actually found that Crestron and Control4 are coming out with IPAD apps, but of course they want you to connect to their control systems... Not exactly what I was thinking of. In my concept, I think you would use a simple IP to IR blaster and directly control all of your systems...

    High End Touch Screen Remote - The perfect IPAD app?

    Sorry if this may have been covered, but I did not see anything in my search. I am definatley not an apple fanboy and have been taking quite a bit of joy bashing the IPAD the last couple of weeks... But then I was sitting in my theater last weekend and it just hit me. The IPAD would make...

    Best way to hook up HD-A2 audio??

    Are you sure about that Doug? I looked for quite a while last night before I posted an answer to this question. I could not fine any specific reference that the TOSlink optical was downgraded. If you have somewhere to direct me, I would appreciate it. That will definately affect my future...

    Best way to hook up HD-A2 audio??

    TSO Link cable is going to be your best choice. Frankly, I would choose that over the Digital Coax cable anyway. Either way you are going to get full digital sound from the system - and the TSO cables are relitively inexpensive. I have the Denon AVR 3805 receiver and I will use the same...

    My Home Theater Project...

    Finished all the details last weekend... I just ran out of steam so I decided to wait until next weekend to stain. I will post photos when I am done. The trim itself really did not take too long, I took Thanksgiving week off and have puttered on it each weekend since.

    Noob Question - HD and Component!

    I did not know that! HD-DVD and BD will not upscale using component. Well, in my opinion that pretty much does the component in, unless you want to run two DVD player (or three if you cannot choose a HD platform) My problem is that my receiver does not have HDMI - it is only a year old so...

    Talked to a Salesman @ a local specialty HT ctr. today, is he accurate?

    I just purchased the Sanyo Z5 on ebay for 1,499 and it includes a $200 manufacturers rebate. If you have controlled ambient light it is a great deal. Your dealer is out of his mind - the Panasonic is considered a "light cannon" and really shines (pun intended) in applications where you do not...

    My Home Theater Project...

    Just thought I would share my current project with the group. I am triming out a Media room in my home. I started with a combined Game room/Media Room area separated by a counter. I removed the counter and built a wall the separate the two areas. I also stole an 8'x8' room out of unused attic...
