    New firmware for Panasonic BD players, 12-8-08.

    Panny's site doesn't even list the 1.6 update, but my player found and applied it just fine. Any details on what this firmware addresses?

    Lost: Season Four

    Not season four specific, but anybody know whether Lost on Sci Fi will actually be in HD. The meager HD offerings on Sci Fi HD don't leave me very hopeful. I'm getting ready to up the capacity of my DVR with an external SATA drive and I wouldn't mind recording it all from the beginning...but...

    Country stars record Christmas duets with Elvis

    Country stars record Christmas duets with Elvis - CNN.com Not sure how I feel about this. I'm not a big country devotee to begin with, but it's more the blatant commercialism in this project. At least with "Unforgettable" Natalie Cole was trying to capture an opportunity with her own father...

    Lost: Season Four

    I usually despise guessing endings (as my wife can attest when she's let things slip) but for some reason I had Locke/Bentham pegged. In the flash forwards they said specifically that Jeremy Bentham was who instructed them to lie. Then later, there was Locke outside the Orchid station telling...

    New Panasonic DMP-BD10a Announcement - $599 - 5 free BDs

    :eek: Yikes!! That just made the decision for me. Northern Exposure, Looney Toons Golden collection (found all 5 at Costco just last week), The Electric Company...no way in hell I'm watching those stretched. Maybe I'll just have to do a little economic stimulating when my check comes in.

    New Panasonic DMP-BD10a Announcement - $599 - 5 free BDs

    When you put it that way, I suppose not. I tend to get stuck on a particular concept or feature when researching equipment. 7.1 analong inputs on my Denon 3805...7.1 analog outputs on the BD10A...7.1 speakers wired in my HT..seemd like a waste to have only 5 channels in use even if the available...

    New Panasonic DMP-BD10a Announcement - $599 - 5 free BDs

    Ken, this player isn't new at all...it became available back in June07 but for some reason was quickly bypassed with the BD10AK. You won't find any in stores unless it's an oversight or a return and it's also why you can't find info in Panny's site. I keep combing eBay and there are always a few...

    Scott Atwell Star Trek Discussion thread (Series and Films)

    Not to mention waiting in line behind over 1000 crew and civilians. Maybe someone has come up with a unique and sensitive use for the transporter. ;)

    Saturday Night Live - Season 33

    Love Walken but he's getting worse about no eye contact with his scene mates. Rewrites happen up til the last minute, but that doesn't generally mean every line is brand new. It's no excuse for literally standing there and reading and not even looking at Jason Sudeikis during a scene where he's...

    Sci-Fi Channel in HD

    Just found out that Cox here in Oceanside CA added Sci-Fi HD. I know what I'll be checking out tonight. Fingers crossed for lots of real HD.

    DTS-MA was more of a perk. I was mostly interested in the 7.1 analog out or maybe find someone who wants to unload one. Thanks for the reply Paul. (great name BTW)

    Buyer Beware at 6ave

    BTW...Dany....I think that picture in your signature is one of the most disturbing things I've ever seen.:eek:

    Buyer Beware at 6ave

    I realize that the OP probably unsubscribed a long time ago, so this argument is just for our own sake...but He accepted and willfully continued to use a product of much higher value than he paid for. Throwing away the box wasn't an "oops". He knew it was the wrong unit so he never even had...

    Sci-Fi Channel in HD

    Always thought Chef Cora was smokin' and that pic drives it home. (Even if it is airbrushed within an inch of it's life.) oh...er....uh...Sci-Fi in HD....yeah....that's it.

    The way Faraday described it is that he thinks it's just the conciousness that is moving through time, so maybe it simply suppresses the current time's conciousness...a little Exorcist-ish.

    Sci-Fi Channel in HD

    I'm sure it's going to be a little stretch and a little real HD. What cable system...and where, Scott?

    What's the most unanswerable question you had as a kid? Pure silliness only!

    I'm not clear. Are you saying you had heard someone actually replacing f*ck with "eff" in conversation (I.e. "get the eff out of my way) and wanted to know literally if "eff" was the bad word? For a period of time my oldest brother took to using the phrase "mother flower". Funny how we think...

    Where Are the Foodies?

    Pretty much anything Food Network is great. AB is the king and Giada is the queen. I'm not sure if the thread title is Food Network specific, but there are two shows on Mojo that are great. After Hours and, not so much food as alcohol, but Three Sheets. Zane Lamprey makes me feel warm and...

    What's the most unanswerable question you had as a kid? Pure silliness only!

    Yikes people...lighten up. I'm assuming Jon intended a ;) after his post. And if not...no need to overreact and send the thread down that path. Here's another. Could God microwave a burrito so hot that he, himself couldn not eat it? Wait...that wasn't me...that was Homer J.:D

    What's the most unanswerable question you had as a kid? Pure silliness only!

    I had a strange childhood flash a little while ago that recalled an odd question I had as a child to which my Mother's eyeballs most certainly spun like a slot machine. Looking back, what is the silliest, oddball, for all intents and purposes unanswerable question you had as a kid? I am not...

    Not rated for "In Wall"

    Chris...take another look at my last post. Degradation of the insulation isn't the big concern.

    New Panasonic DMP-BD10a Announcement - $599 - 5 free BDs

    Hi guys. Reviving this thread because I'd like to find out how your BD10As (not to be confused with BD10AKs) are doing and possibly get my hands on one for the 7 analog outs. I'm not likely to be able to upgrade my receiver to HDMI any time soon, but I could use the 7 analogs to get the...

    Not rated for "In Wall"

    "In-wall" rating has much less to do with insulation cracking and being a hazard than it has to do with the insulation material itself contributing to a fire in the event one begins from another source. Wire not rated for in-wall can act like a fuse inside the wall during a house fire and hasten...

    In Wall vs On Wall?

    Your choice to denigrate the source and not just the concept speaks for itself.

    Lost: Season Four

    it could easily be taken as questioning the necessity of spoilers & previews as opposed to simply methods, I.e. "how people avoid other spoilers via TV or elsewhere". Personally, I turn every glimpse of a promo to a lurid proposition from Yunjin Kim in my mind...but that's just me. :D Moving...
