I can't seem to navigate the menu on Twilight Time blu rays through my XBOX One player. Specifically, can't move the cursor to highlight any menu choices. Anyone else having this issue?

I'm toying with upgrading my receiver to one with HDMI inputs. The Denon AVR-1803 has served me very well for years - sufficient power, happy with sound, etc. What would be a comparable receiver, Denon or otherwise, if I wanted to upgrade? I get lost in the specifications, and would...

Anyone have this new BD title? I've never seen the film, but DVD Beaver gives it a simply horrible review (a 1080i, rather than 1080p, transfer tops the grievances). I'd give it a shot if it were reasonably watchable, but perhaps I should opt for the very well-reviewed DVD version?

Thanks to the many of you who read my blog on The Criterion Collection. Here's something I wrote last month on collecting, which I know you'll be able to relate to http://toomuchculture.blogspot.com/2009/07/collecting-or-how-many-versions-of.html

Apple is now, through iTunes, selling HD movies for the first time (previously only available as rentals), for $19.99 each. Putting aside DRM issues, and putting aside obvious differences (DD 5.1 on iTunes; better sound formats on BD, extras on BD, etc.), how do you think HD downloads LOOK...

I'm as big an XM booster as I know - I have 6 radios on my account (1 Inno, 1 XMPCR, 2 Roadys, 1 SkyFi, 1 built-in in my new car). I've been a happy subscriber for almost 3 years, and I'm not going anywhere. I'm a Stern fan and I've missed him, but not enough to ditch my beloved XM. Not even...

I have about 2,000 CDs and growing. I keep them in Can-Am cabinets, each of which hold 360 CDs. They keep them out of the way in the basement, and don't take up a lot of room. The problem comes in adding in new CDs, which I (try to) do weekly. If I buy the Fiona Apple CD, I have to move...

Why not? I'll give 2 lists: Best of 2005 (no particular order): Sufjan Stevens - Come On Feel The Illinoise! - Like the best high school pageant you've ever heard, combined with Vince Guaraldi combined with a little Philip Glass - as beautiful as it is precious in concept (the second...

http://www.billboard.com/bb/daily/article_display.jsp?vnu_content_id=1001014692 I'm a big fan of her last CD, and have listened to the unreleased Extraordinary Machine, and was pretty dissapointed and underwhelmed. It sounded like she and producer Jon Brion were in a death struggle in which...

Perhaps that's exaggerating, but as I sit here listening to his new CD, "Universal United House of Prayer," I can't imagine anyone not loving this music. I saw him and Julie Miller last year in NY (w/Emmylou Harris coming on for a few numbers) in the snug confines of Zankel Hall, and I count...

I use DVD Empire for most of my CD orders, and they arrive on release day. But I've never found a similarly reliable CD site. Is there a comparable store for CDs? How is DVD Empire's music arm -- just as great? I often use CD Universe, but find that they're flaky re: when the orders...

Anyone know if/when this is coming out? It was supposed to come out last week, but it's nowhere to be found in stores or on the Internet, from what I can see.

For some reason I can't figure out, I can't get any sound on the DVD-Audio stream of "Gaucho." On the other hand, when I play the disc in a non-DVD-Audio DVD player, the regular Dolby Digital track works fine. When in the DVD-Audio player, the video menus work, and the track appears to be...

I ordered the 15-SACD box set from CD Universe, at a great price -- $174.95. While I've used the site occasionally to fill in catalog product, I've never pre-ordered from CD Universe before. When can I expect the set to ship -- earlier than or on the release date? I'm extremely psyched...

Must be a mistake, and it's not my cup of tea, but Foreigner's "4" is listed on barnesandnoble.com for $5.98 (less if you have a Reader's Advantage card). Get it before they realize their mistake...

I have a new Mitsubishi I want calibrated, and I haven't seen this question definitively answered. I see a lot of opinions stating that the calibration shouldn't void the manufacturer's warranty (or extended warranty), or others saying, "who'll be able to tell," but I just wondering, from a...

I have $3,500 to spend on a rear projection, 16:9 monitor. I have Comcast HD in my area. I think that for this budget a 65" TV might not be one of the high end models, and therefore the picture might not be as impressive (let me know if I'm mistaken). I'm in the market for a 55" - 60"...

If you're in the NY area, Blowout Video, in Times Square, is having a sale where everything in the store is 50% off, other than items already on sale at about 30% off. They may be going out of business, if the storeclerk chatter is to be taken seriously. Just tonight, I picked up for $9.44...

I'm thinking of selling this title (please, please don't try to talk me out of it -- I used to love this film, watched most of it recently, and wonder what my fuss was all about). Is the limited edition (the 2 disc set) a rare title? Any clue what I could get for it? Thanks.

Just curious. I see posts from people who appear to have watched newly-released DVDs several times. I see other posts from people who seem to watch one or more films most days of the week. Still others go deep into all of the supplements in most of the deluxe packages they buy. Me, I have a...

Just got my new issue of Vanity Fair in the mail, and it came shrink-wrapped with a DVD --it says it's a Vanity Fair Exclusive -- containing the BMW short films, including extras like the director commentaries and "making of" featurettes. Fine print on the enclosure says "The Follow" is not...

I have a Denon 3200 receiver with DD decoding (and I have a Sony DVD player - the 330, if I recall), and I'm perfectly happy with it. But, I'd like to get on the DTS bandwagon. Can anyone recommend a reasonable (under $400) DVD player with built-in DTS decoding? J&R has a Sony DVP-C670D...
