I knoww St:Voyager ended quite some time ago, but I never saw the last episode, Endgame, the last 2 hr episode. I accidentally erased the copy I did have. Would there be someone out there kind enough to copy it for me? Of course I will pay for the tape and shipping. Thanks, John

I bought a Sony SatHD100 a couple of months ago. There really is not that much on really. Enough to watch and be amazed every now & then. HDNet is great to show off your equipment. The Olympics should be nice. I read that the Super Bowl will be broadcast by Fox in some weird Fox enhanced...

Damon, RCA, Sony, Hughes, Philips, etc. will all give you differeing signal strengths depending on how they implement the numbers. It's not really meaningful to compare one to another. Just as long as you're getting above 70 or so, depending on where you live, you'll be OK. In the NE like...

Aaron, I don't have UltimateTV or TiVo, but I do have a SatHD100. If I understand Tivo correctly & your question, then the answer is not really. The HD 100 can only output either thru the component outs OR thru the S-vid, RCAs, not at the same time. This is not Sonys fault, this is per...

You can try, it didn't help last year. I never got any reply or satisfaction other than the mindless, do you have good signal strength, do you have a phone line plugged in????? They're clueless. I'm sure someone knows they are to blame but they ain't coming forward to help us out.

I have the Sony as well. Fan isn't too noisy, but I have it in a rack behind doors. I think the menus are very nice. The front panel display is very useful, the integrated guide is very nice, the ability to set it to auto switch display modes is great depending on your TV. If you need to...

I have an 36XBR400 and recently paired it with the Sony SatHD100 which will do OTA HDTV(not setup yet for DirecTV HD). I have it hooked up to the component ins on the Wega. I have noticed that on some over the air broadcasts the bottom of some station logos or even some program content gets...

Believe me after all we went through last year on this exact same problem, this is directly related to something that DirecTV does that only affects some RCA units. Just like last time, a whole bunch of us had the same problems occur at the exact same time to the exact same model numbers. No...

Richard, Can you explain to me why this is so? I know lots of people do mattes, but I guess I don't understand why it would make a difference? Thanks, John Quote: I have one word to say in response: Mattes On my 4:3 TV with black foamboard mattes, widescreen movies look...

Ken, Let me guess - you have an RCA. This is happenening to me too. And it's not the first time. I went through this maybe a year or so ago with another RCA receiver in my basement. I got & tried lots of advice from people including how to call DirecTV to get them to send me a new access...

Thanks Mike, In playing around yesterday I found that out. Still not what I really want to have to do, but it's an OK solution. Do you know what the Wega does when it gets a 480i signal on the component ins? Does it upconvert to 480p?

I'm not really that familiar with HDTV STBs and was not planning to get into it yet, but since my DirecTV receiver went out the other day I was looking for a new revceiver and ran into what seemed like a good deal on a Sony HD100 HDTV/DTV receiver at CC(599). When I set it up I ran into some...

Not familiar with these particular speakers, but I have all Boston speakers and they are very nice. I would disagree with Max on the sub issue. I auditioned several subs and saw nothing negative about the Bostons. And if you like a good looking one the cherry look of the PV1000 can't be beat...

It took me awhile to find it again, but Phil,a fellow HTFer has a very good site explaining how to do calibration. It can be found at : http://www.geocities.com/p_iturra/PCI.html

Beats me what's going on The bar was gone again last night when I checked during TNG.

Eric, I'll take a guess here, someone else correct me if I'm wrong. I guess that the phase is what I've always seen labeled as polarity(either 0 degrees or 180 usually). It's just regular or inverted(i.e. 180 degrees out of phase). If you get Avia or Video essentials they have tests for...

Yeah the black bar was back yesterday evening. Start calling again!

Did anyone else notice that the awful bottom black bar on TNN telling you which show you are watching was gone? At least it was the few times I checked yesterday. Did all our calls & e-mails actually work? If so thanks to all & thanks to TNN. John

Doubt something like this can be fixed with user/service adjustments. Get someone knowledgeable to look at it. It's under warranty, isn't it?

Tony, If you are still looking, I have a Boston VR-10 for sale. I have had Bostons all the way around for about 3 yrs now. Love 'em. VRM50s up front, 920 center, 1000 sub and VRMXs as rears. They are all great. I upgraded the VR10 to the 920 when I got a larger TV, but the VR10 is a great...

Mark, I couldn't get to that thread. Can you re-post? Any time tunnel reference always gets me thinking about one of my old buddies from grade school. This guy claimed to have built a time tunnel that actually worked. He swears it did. I never believed him of course, although I did spend...

I know this has been posted before, but I didn't really think I was going to buy the DVDs so I didn't pay that much attention. But after the terrible decisions by TNN I think I must. I simply cannot watch TNG this way & looks like TNN will not change no matter how much we bitch. Does anyone...

Yeah that really sucks!!!! It's the worst thing any station has ever done to mess up a show. If we let this go on soon all stations will be doing this. I urge everyone to call TNN over & over again & complain. I know I have many times. In case you don't know the # is 888-767-1090. Please...

I too am very eager & it sounds promising. But Scott Bakula???? It must be just me, everyone else seems to like him. Can't be any worse than that pompous blowhard Avery Brooks. But then, most seem to have liked him too. Yes, it must be only me. John

Hi David, I currently have the VR-MXs and before that had the VRS's for my rears. Unfortunately my room is far from ideal because I have no side wall on the right, so I have to mount my speakers in the rear. I have to say that the VR-MX is a much better speaker for my room. Fuller range and...

Boy do I know how you guys feel dealing with those blockheads. I was one of the apparently few people that was having freezing problems with my RCA receiver. It would not power on after it was powered off for an hr or so. You had to physically unplug it. It turned out to be an old(H) access...
