Hi all, I my home theater, we have 4 powered recliners. For movie nights with friends, we need more seating. I would love to find the ability to create another row of relatively comfortable seating in front of the recliners. This is a basement, so there is not enough ceiling height to...

I received my bluetooth to IR converter in the mail yesterday when I got home. I installed it in about a minute and my Harmony can now control the PS3 fully. Thank god :) The controller now stays by the PS3 only to be used for games.

It functions as a remote control but it is hardly ideal. The best bet I think is to simply purchase an IR to BT converter and use your universal remote to control the DVD player. You can get the converter for roughly the same price as the Bluetooth PS3 remote. Here is the one I purchased (I...

ok this sounds exactly like what happened to me. I will shut off the controller from now on. Thank you! As a side note, is it harmful to leave the PS3 always on?

I just received my PS3 (40G), late last week. So far I have been EXTREMELY pleased with it, for both upscaling and Blu Ray. I have only run into one problem that I need some help with. I am still awaiting my bluetooth to IR converter in the mail so I am stuck with using the controller to...

Back in 1999, I purchased the wonderful (at its time) Toshiba TW56X81 rear projection 56" wide screen TV and also purchased a progressive scan DVD player to pair with it. Even before any run time or calibration, there was a large "wow" factor for me when I plugged in The Matrix in how much...

Do I need to buy a bluetooth remote to control the DVD functions for a PS3?

Thanks Parker. I guess I will start calling around today. I was even thinking of something like youth centers or senior centers may want it.

I need some help. I own a Toshiba TW56X81 HD ready rear projection 16:9 TV that I bought back in 1999. My wife and I have decided to upgrade to a Sony Bravia SXRD KDS-60A3000 60" 1080p Rear Projection HDTV and a PS3, However, the wifey wants to have a plan as to how we are going to get...

Not a big issue for me. There is no way my ears could ever tell the difference between DTS and dolby true HD. My eyes are good but my ears suck.

Thanks Dan. That is a good hint about keeping the cables the same length. Can I ask which Blu Ray player you purchased?

see the first post in the thread.

awesome! I was looking into this Blu Ray player. It looks like it should output audio on HDMI and the optical at the same time. I just hope there is no lip sync issues. Sony Blu Ray Player
