Ah, beautiful. I think this wasn't finalized in the prototype models and comments made about them and I know it's an issue with the Samsung for those that don't like the stretching.
Ben, As a follow-up question, how responsive do the discs menus seem? Each company's authoring has been a bit different in how fluid and smooth they seem (none of them come across as smooth as HD DVD to me though they are getting better) but I wonder how much of that is authoring vs. what the...
I've read posts elsewhere that indicate that the DTS stutter problem does not occur with the Panasonic. The Samsung has a single major firmware upgrade at the end of the month that will fix this but you can order that disc now by calling Samsung support (and escalating to level 2 to request DTS...
Ben, If the Panasonic GUI is the same as most of their decks have been for the past few years, when in display mode does it have either: Codec listing? Bitrate listing?
I've done about 95% of all my DVD purchases online since 1997 and have yet to have one crushed or damaged box come in resulting in damaged packaging. None at all and that's from various retailers at all areas across the country. Either the postal system in my area is better than average...
Having finally taken in the opener, after dropping off early in the second season, I got a strong vibe from the first couple of minutes of the show that just got stronger as it went on. Enterprise: 9/11 The Trek franchises for the most part are interesting windows into the times they were...
I'm basically in the midst of this myself at the moment, where one reader has suggested a change in my writing style (plug plug - www.animeondvd.com) so that I can gain more credibility, since I apparently lack it now after something like five years and over probably 1500 reviews. Adam's article...
Rich, stop giving away my source! I can't complain though - I just cleaned them out of 390 clear thinpaks this weekend that shipped to me yesterday. Thankfully, UPS ground is only a day away for me. muahahahahaha!
Eric, Well, you're pretty much right in one respect. It did just stop. The demonic element to Berserk was prevalent throughout the series, but not in your face *most* of the time. But it's definitly there. The problem comes in through how people view it. When you take a step back and...
Morgan, Rahxephon is essentially on a six to seven week schedule, so it (like Noir) should be done by the end of the year easily. The movie is likely to follow in the spring, since it was a recent announcement, though I'm guessing they'll want to do it quickly since the series is selling very...
Joe, You're thinking of Adventures of the Galaxy Rangers, one of the very few US cartoons that did a great job in the 80's. It's not anime, and isn't based on an anime series, but with its partial continuity and character depth, is often mistaken as one. I don't think that it's available...
At this point, it's pretty likely that they either have the renewal footage, have no clue what they're getting (i.e. things are signed, nothing has been sent yet) or it's just too early to tell. Considering that ADV is now tied up in a 100 million + movie deal with Gainax and WETA, I'd say...
Compared to what it used to be, going to and from Logan is a dream now. Avoiding the sumner/calahan tunnels, the tolls to get back into the tunnel, merging back onto 93 to get down to the pike... I'll go in and out of Logan any time of day over what I used to have to do.
Dub fans would like it. I'd be interested to see it dubbed since the settings work well for it. There's a lot of things shifting behind the scenes right now with this and I think a lot of it is going to come from feedback gained by this survey as well as what they'll hear when they (logh...
I use the mx500 with it and only programmed in a small number of the buttons, mostly because there's not a lot of them really used. The bulk of the tivo controller really is just a regular cable controller, so just changing it to deal with channels, guide and home plus forward/reverse stuff. I...
