My remote has an Audio button.. I haven't tried to use it yet to see if it actually works or not.

What do the speaker inputs on the speaker themselves look like.. I seen a back view of the rear speakers only, and those had standard speaker inputs. If that is the case with the fronts and center speaker as well then I would say yes just cut the connector off as it should just be a standard...

Does your TV accept the Qam cable card? If So then you could just use that instead of the cable box, but if your TV will not accept the card then you will still need the cable box.

Thanks for the help guys.. I would never have thought to look under languages.. I always thought that would be for closed captioning... god forbid that they would put audio options under the pop up menu for Audio.. If it's already there why not???

Thanks, I'll look into it.. Didn't think about looking under Languages... I was just a little confused about the whole misleading audio menu.

Where is it on the Pop up menu I didn't see it there either... I only seen one option for audio, but it made no sense to me... I don't remember what it said, but it was something like button sound on or off or something like that. btw thanks for the fast reply.

Can someone tell me how to get to the audio setup screen on the Dark Knight BluRay disk. Every time I hit the menu button is says this feature is disabled on this disk, and when I insert the disk it just auto plays the movie with the Dolby Digital track. I for the life of me can not figure out...

I haven't read through all the posts in this thread so forgive me if it's been mentioned already, but Is James singing sound waay sharp to anyone else? To me it just sounds off key. Also I have grown to like the CD.. I really dislike the cheesy rhyming that James is trying to do, but I have...

Well not exactly, If that comes with the TX-SR606 receiver It's not going to have USB and it is not compatible with an input from a PC or at least that is what my manual said don't know if it is true or not I haven't tried. Also that system doesn't have Blue-tooth which he wanted (good luck...

If it were me I would buy the Polk, It seems to have really good reviews.. And CNET liked it as well. I don't know much about the Dayton. I would be careful though as you said you live in an apartment. When I lived in an apartment I couldn't turn my receiver on at all without getting...

For the receiver to decode the Dolby True HD/DTS HD stream, the output device needs to output bitstream w/ secondary audio disabled. Or at least those are the settings I need to set up on my Blu-Ray player.

How hard are those foam kits to install? I did see those, but I just thought it was going to be too much of a pain in the hind end to install and get it right.

What drove me to believe that the driver is blown is really quite simple.. My sub has been rattling really bad lately so I decided to take the grill off and voila there it was the foam surround had a tear in it and had also separated from the outside of the speaker cage. So every time the sub...

I think what ticked me off more, was I would religiously look at my Queue every Tuesday and ever Tuesday I would see the available now next to the movie in my queue, but it would never move up to my movies out queue. It would stay at available now until Wednesday and then go to very long wait...

I didn't actually mean specifically Casablanca, I just used that as an example since that is the example the OP used... Lets say a pre Blu movie that they make into a bluRay release such as The original Batman. Would it have the same quality video and sound as the New Batman release? I ask this...

This is a pretty good topic: I would like to ask this: Is an old movie such as Casablanca really capable of having the same quality picture and sound as current releases of BluRay? I have been hesitating to buy the older releases just because of my mental block thinking that it can't possibly...

I used to receive new releases the day they came out, but the last year or so, it has turned into minimum 6 months to receive new releases. I had been a member for if I had to guess about 5 years when I canceled. btw my distribution point is only 30 miles from here. They always received the...

You might want to check the audio setup menu of the BD Disk itself.. Some of the disks default to DTS and Not the DTS-HD MA 7.1 tracks.. You might have to select that in a menu of the Pans Labyrinth disk.

I was looking at that website, but without knowing the exact specs of my woofer it makes it a little difficult to find an off brand replacement. I don't want to buy one that is too different since the cabinet is tuned specifically for the specs of that speaker. I have no problem with buying an...

My Sub blew a speaker and I'm trying to find a replacement speaker to fix it.. I would like to find a speaker with similar specs and was wondering what my options would be... Sorry I'm being so cheap, I really don't have the cheddar required to buy a new powered sub, and yes I know my current...

I have to agree that the cost of the BluRay Discs are a little on the high side... I just canceled my netflix subscription, because I got tired of everything in my queue going straight to the extremely long you will go grey before you see a movie wait list.

I don't fully understand this yet either, however from what I have read the only true way to actually output the DTS-MA tracks is through an HDMI connection. Or at least that is the information that has been fed to me.

Isn't there a problem with running HD content over component? I thought I read somewhere that it has to go through HDMI because of that stupid HDCP copy protection scheme, or something like that.

Dude, the difference is indescribable.. It's like going from VHS to bluray that is how big of a difference there is between cable and fios. I have FiOs and will never give that grainy cable another penny of my money. When I bought my house this past May the first thing I did was call Verizon and...

What it sounds like to me that he is describing is an old Dolby prologic receiver. If it only has the analog stereo red/white rca jacks then I would say that it is not compatible to the digital formats such as AC-3 Dolby Digital, or DTS... But to answer your question.. The red and white...

I know you said that you wanted to stay mac, however I do know that Linux has already accomplished this with linuxMCE. I also know they have accomplished it using the Verizon FiOs set top boxes connected to the MCE thin clients. If you wish to read about it here: LinuxMCE there is some good...

Quick question: I switched to mac for pretty much one reason. The very very low threat of viruses. If I were to install Parallels does that pretty much defeat the purpose of why I switched? In other words will that open the mac open to corruption due to virii? Or if a Virus infection were to...

I like my macmini.. That kind of defeats the purpose of having a mac.

That is not entirely true. You are just comparing transfer speed/throughput and not how the two formats actually transfer data. FireWire will do a batch transfer where USB does packet transfer. You tell me which would be faster. If you have 5 GIGS of data to transfer? A) a format that will...

I went to BB the other day looking at camcorders. I only had two criteria that I wanted met.. It had to be Mac compatible out of the box without jumping through hoops, and it had to have a decent picture while filming indoors. I don't think I was asking for too much. Well the salesperson...
