Sometimes the things that seem most complicated are really quite simple. Because there wasn't another TV option to try the BR/DVD, Philpug finally got advice to reset the BR/DVD by holding the stop button for 15ish seconds. The DVD is reset and he has a picture! Thought you'd appreciate...
At the moment, there is only one TV in the house (sold the home theater system with the old house) but some of my stuff with a newer TV will be available in October. Will see if a friend or neighbor will be willing to lend a hand in the mean time.
My room mate is having issues with his TV set up after a move. At first I thought that the TV was damaged during the move, but he gets the menu options on the screen, just not an image. We don't have an antenna, cable or dish hooked up to it(yet) but are trying to use the Blue Ray. He...
My favourite power trip to take with me on bike rides:
tortilla shell
spread peanut butter on half of the shell
Top with either honey or marmalade(not jam or jelly because they bleed)
fold in half then in half again forming a 1/4 with two layers of peanut butter and honey/marmalade.
No worries...
I'm impressed with the dedication of the members of this board.
I'm not a tech geek when it comes to Home Theater stuff, in fact my home theater consists of a big screen tv that I have yet to hook up the stereo speakers and DVD player to.
It appears that you take your Home Theater systems as...

My husband has an old POS VCR that he wants to keep hooked up just in case he wants to watch one of his old Videos.
He also has a new DVD player (the Toshiba I described) that is a DVD only, which he would also like to have hooked up.
IMHO the VCR is going to die soon and that will be a non...
Sorry I dropped out of sight after you were so kind with assistance......
Live can get busy in a hurry, eh?

I can do the pc set up of a remote, quite easily, but my husband would have a stroke if he attempted to.
Thank you so much. I'll check some stuff out when I get home and post back later tonight or first thing in the morning.
BTW, you guys are as crazy about this stuff as the SkiGeeks are...
Stephen, no I don't realize that I have HDTV and don't have it hooked to HDTV
I'll check the model of my satellite receiver when I go home tonight, as well as find out where the cables go and what they are supposed to do for me.....
My office has gotten a bit hectic so I can't do this justice...
Thanks for the replies. A couple of things before we proceed.....
First, Calling our set up a Home Theater is being generous, extremely generous.
Second, my husband doesn't want a universal remote.
He wants a simple remote, and is willing(even eager) to have several remotes with individual...
Or as I should call it, the KISS method of Home Theater hook ups that even my husband can operate.
Shortest story I can have on this topic...
My husband has had a big screen tv every since he had a place of his own.
Back in the 80's when a 37 inch was big, then a 48" and now a 62" dlp(or is it...
