Thanks again. I thought it was supposed to erase the label also and when it didn't I assumed it was erasing anything.

Thanks again. I tried that. When it erases is it erasing just the commands associated with the key? I thought it would actually erase the word that the key corresponds to also. The only way I have been able to erase the word is go into edit and just space the word out using the toggle button.

That did it!! Thanks. I was doing everything but pressing the page button. One more question, I am also trying to delete some commands. I am pressing the erase button then the fav button then the "all" button and or the device erase button and the commands are still there. What am I doing wrong...

Thanks, but I have the manual and have looked at it alot but can't find how to add a device. I can see where to edit a command for a device but not how edit/add a device. Am I missing something?

I just got a used MX-500 and it is missing some of the devices on the main page like the DVD and CD player. How do I add back the devices that are missing? I have read where it is not possible to bring the remote back to the original default so I am trying to manually type in everything that it...

I have a small closet that I want to put my equipment in and I need a rack that I can wheel in and out. Does anyone know where I can get one? Would something like a bread rack work? Any other ideas?

Thanks Lev, I get the idea. I just need to take that step and "crossover". Now I have to decide what to get when the time comes. Too many choices, LCD, DLP, Plasma etc.

Was just looking at Walmart for a Harry Potter DVD for my daughters birthday and noticed that the full screen version was $6 more that the wide screen version. I suppose that is the direction that DVD's are going now? Pretty soon we will have no choice but wide screen? By the way, I...

Thanks for the history John. I do plan on getting a widescreen someday but with my luck soon as I get one that is 16:9 they will come out with another format and I will be watching black bars of another kind.

"How come we don't complain about black bars in the theaters .." Maybe I am blind but I don't notice black bars at the theater. However, I was at a hi-fi store the other day and was watching a $6000 HDTV and it had bars in it!! If I am gonna pay that much money for a set I want to see...

Chris, Thanks for the site. You are right, I have been around the forum for a while but I have been concentrating mostly on the audio end. Now I am wanting to look at the video side of HT. One question, if some of the movies are now being produced in 2.35:1 will HDTV be going to this format...

My DVD player has zoom which I haven't tried but I would think with a 16:9 movie on a 4:3 screen it would just be a close up with the big black bars. Hate those bars.

I have a rear projection TV with 4:3 and I when I get movies I always get the full screen versions, but it seems that the trend is going toward 16:9 and I know eventually I will have to bit the bullet and go HDTV. Also, when I borrow movies most of them are 16:9 which kinda ruins the movie...

I tried doing a search before I posted but didn't find anything under the topic. I also tried searching under Ilkka and found some stuff but nothing on plugging a PB-10.

I understand that plugging a couple ports on the bigger SVS's make a difference but what about plugging all ports or in my case with the PB-10 plugging the only port. Will it hurt anything? Can I expect it to sound "tighter" like the sealed subs are supposed to sound? If it is OK to do, what...
