Also,for those thinking that they cant get DDTrueHD 5.1 on the A2, as long as you have HDMI of any verison, it will work. BUt it you dont have HDMI, then yeah, it looks like either new reciever or the XA2. I dont think its too bad a deal to be honest, we probably got away with more than we...

Hey kami, i agree. I remember being here back when fellowship was about to be released. I remember your posts and lou's and chucks the most. It was 3 years of anticipation and it was awesome!

Well i managed to get a small tv and set it up that way, it was pretty painless. It did strike me as strange that it cant be done without it, as in the manual it states, run the auto setup through the GUI or through unit, for this example we'll use GUI. And then it doesnt state anywhere how to...

I know you cant tell much in screenshots, but is their any sites that have some?

Hey guys, just bought this yesterday and unfortunately I cant connect the monitor out to my tv as the tv juts died. THing is though, I cant even get to a menu on the unit itself and cant find anything in the manual. It always uses the GUI in the manual. Im stuck and cant do anything without a...

Yes. TrueHD over analog is decoded in the A1 and passed through to the receiver in its lossless format. Over digital-Coax,Optical,HDMI 1.1, it is re-encoded in DTS at a certain bit rate, 3mbs, could be wrong. So yes, to take full advantage of TrueHD you need to continue using analog untill HDMI...

Well it would work over HDMI 1.1 but it would be re-encoded into a DTS bitstream. You would still need Analog 5.1 to receive proper TrueHD. HDMI 1.3 is needed for digital. PS. Paul knows more about that subject than me :)

I just bought the fellowhip complete recordings and it totally brought back some great memories. Seems like soo long ago that i was waiting for fellowship to open at the cinema. Then it was non-stop lotr action from there. Posting here, checking theonering.net constantly, reading the books etc...

Thanks for the information guys. I think i will go for a motorized one and hopefully i can mount it on a couple of screws and get away with it in the place im renting :)

So what happens to the bars when you use a screen though? They do just sit under the border of the screen?

I dont think mine stretches vertically, atleast i dont know how to do it. I notice that if i watch 1:85:1 is perfect but on 2:35:1 i have black bars top and bottom.

So far ive managed to use my Panny AE700 on my beige wall in a rented apartment with satisfactory results. I really wanted to get a screen and apart from models etc there is some things I dont quite understand. I see that they come is aspects 16:9 and 4:3. For me its just for DVD so obviously...

Thats awesome! I just ordered a Yammy RXV2600 coz i couldnt wait for a receiver that decodes DDTrueHD etc. But now im not regretting it..this will do it itself!..just not over HDMI 1.3 of course :)

Yay...im so excited! Im going to see the Clerk II opening in Melbourne! Kevin Smith will be there to do a Q and A. I cant wait. My first premier of a movie and I get to see Kevin Smith. Im sure it will be hilarious.

Yeah as soon as i pull the speaker away, the color completely goes. As soon as it enters the top to the tv it begins. Will it damage the tv if i have it on top without the tv on? Its a bit dissapointing, the Dali centre isnt really a budget speaker. I mean, i shouldnt have to pay $1000 for a...
