    2.35:1 Constant Height Set-ups

    Where did you guys get your 2.35:1 screens from? Are they more expensive than a comparable 1.78:1 screen? I am looking for a 135" wide screen for a CIH setup.

    Samsung 850 will not play progressive over component!

    Worked like a charm, once I unplugged and re-plugged the component cables back in. Great picture on my Mits. Now I need to get a component to VGA cable to hook up the Panasonic LCD projector. Thanks!!

    Samsung 850 will not play progressive over component!

    Thanks for your reply, Jeremy. The problem I'm having is when I change to interlaced component in the set-up menu, the player does not send a signal to my RPTV and when I try to select progressive component/HDMI the screen goes black like it's processing the signal, but then returns, again no...

    Samsung 850 will not play progressive over component!

    Our Church just got the Sammy 850, but I can not get the player to play progressive over component. The set-up menu will not change from interlaced to prog. As a matter of fact, I don't get any picture on my Mits. over component, but composit works. Anyone have a similar issue with this model...

    DVDPlanet deals (dead/dying)

    I am pretty sure that the "Wolfgang Peterson 4 pack" was listed at $11.21 in error. I was able to order it at that price, but my e-mail confirmation shows it on back order. It is now listed for $38.21 (25% off). The other titles listed at $11.21 are still at that price. Would they have to honor...

    Yamaha keeps shutting down.

    I own a 6 to 7 year old R-V1105. In the last couple of weeks it has started to shut/turn itself off in the middle of listening to either 5.1 sources or 2 channel. I can turn the receiver back on and it will sometimes run for an hour or two without shutting down and sometimes it will shut back...

    A little help setting up my BFD?

    MichaelDDD, I sent you an e-mail with the subtestmodel attached. I believe that the flatter the sub frequency response the better for music and movies. There is a noticeable improvement in both since equalizing with the BFD. Certain movie scenes that had a boomy, unpleasant quality because...

    A little help setting up my BFD?

    I ran into the same thing while calibrating my PB2+. The filters I set on the BFD were not having any affect on the humps and dips in my room's frequency response. What I discovered was that while dialing/changing the frequency to be filtered, I thought the BFD's readout said 63hz,for example...
