With both Blu-Ray and HD-DVD fully supporting (in their specs) 1080p, why on earth are studios releasing some titles at 1080i instead of 1080p? What possible reason could have to release interlaced titles especially when almost every TV (and most definitely every FP) is now 1080p? I was quite...

I much prefer just to trade these for the titles I want, but if anyone out there just wants to buy them, I'll go ahead and sell them as well. All are mint and flawless. No dust, fingerprints or scratches. Prices are as follows: $18.50 for one disc. $18 each for two. $17.50 each for three. $17...

Now that WB has released Smallville (Season 6) on HD-DVD and Blu-Ray, does anyone know if they'll go back and release Season 5 on Blu-Ray as well? The reason I'm asking is this: According to the High-Def Digest review I read on the image quality of the HD-DVD release (of Season 5) it's got...

I'm building a new computer and I'm having the most difficult time in the world trying to get this thing to start up. First off, I'm using the EVGA 680i motherboard which is using the Nvida chipset. For the CPU, I'm using an Intel E6700 Core 2 Duo processor. The power supply is a 750w...

I'm seriously considering building myself a really, really good HTPC and getting a Blu-Ray burner for it to play Blu-Ray movies from to my projector instead of buying a stand-alone blu-ray player which I am not really interested in because you don't have the kind of control over it that you have...

Ok, I have a question. I know that Saw II and III are both being released this Tuesday on Blu-Ray and looking at the covers for both releases, it's clear that both movies have a DTS-HD track on them. My question is this: are the tracks lossless or have they been compressed? The reason I ask...

This question is particularly aimed for information on the Z4 lamp, since that's the projector that I have, but really, any information on lamp life will be welcomed. I read that the Z4 lamp will last 2,000 hours, which I assumed would be in the full-power mode. Right now, I have it set to...

Sorry if this has been asked before but now that I've got my Sanyo Z4 projector, I am seriously considering getting it ISF calibrated, but I want to know in advance exactly what I'm getting by doing that. Does the ISF tech just calibrate simple settings like color, shaprness, tint, etc with DVE...

I went to the ATI website and downloaded the latest drivers and as a result, my 19" computer monitor can only display a single resolution correctly: 800x600. I can change it to other resolutions, but they display very stretched and with a lot of panning. I used to be able to run 1600x1200 easily...

I very much want to buy a projector pretty soon. I'm looking at the Sanyo Z4. Most websites that sell it also sell a 3 year lamp warranty which is said to replace two lamps should they fail prematurely. My question is, just how often do lamps fail way before they are supposed to? I've heard...

For a long time now, I've had a single pair of Infinity IL-60s, which I used as my front left/right speakers. I've been using a B4+ as my subwoofer. I don't have a center and I didn't have any surround speakers, so basically, all I had was a 2.1 stereo system. The bass was perfect when...

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but does DVD-Audio exist anymore? The only new discs I have seen are not really DVD-Audio discs at all. For example, the new Backstreet Boys album and the new Jennifer Lopez album. Both come in a "DualDisc" which has the CD on one side and the DVD on the...

I have a friend, who bought Energy Connoisseur speakers. The C-9s to be more precise. He actually bought the C-7, but I told him to go with the C-9s (since he wanted to stick with the Energy brand) instead, and he did. He has just started building his home-theater system for the very first...

Ok...this might seem like a REALLY stupid question to all of you people who know much more than I do about subwoofers, but where the hell are the other two drivers inside of the B4+? If I'm not mistaken, there are supposed to be a total of 4 drivers inside of it, am I correct? And two of the...

Have any of you guys ever heard of a Spanish movie called "Second Skin" in Spanish it's called "Segunda Peil?" There are currently two versions being sold right now. Rated R & Unrated Version I bought the Unrated version, and it even says so on the cover. But when I opened the...

When playing Advanced Resolution DVD-Audio, I can only hear: Front Left/Right Rear Left/Right And Subwoofer But I don't hear anything coming out of the CENTER speaker. Sure, when you sit in the "sweet spot" you hear the sound all around, because the speakers are calibrated. But my...

According to the specs on the DVDempire.com site, the new Superbit Edition of Spider-Man is only single layered. Please tell me that this isn't true. Can anyone confirm what it really is?

I didn't know where else to post this, and since this is a software question, I decided to put it here. The WM9 trailers that I downloaded from Windows Media 9 were able to be played through Zoom-Player. But I tried to play the WM9 files of T2 off of the DVD, through Zoom Player, and...

I think I remember reading somwehere that David Duchovny left X-files during one of the seasons and didn't come back. Is this true? I've only barely begun renting the seasons from Netflix, and I just started on Season 2. Which season does he leave, and does he ever come back?

Hi Guys, I'm really sorry if this question has been asked before, but I couldn't find any exact information. A friend of mine, has an SVS 16-46 PCi which he keeps bottoming out, because his room is too big. It's 20x20 and the ceilings are 16 feet high, I believe. Anyway, the SVS bottoms...

Hi Guys, After reading a few reviews, I decided to pre-order this projector. It's not actually out yet, but it will be in about a week or so. I've already ordered it, and there's nothing I can do to cancel the order....not that I would want to anyway. I have a few questions though...

I am in the process of watching all of the extras on all of my DVDs, and some DVDs go way out there. Do we really need 3-4 commentaries on each DVD? For example: (1) American Pie 2: 4 commentaries. Why couldn't they combine all the commentaries into one? And why does Finch get his own...

I am thinking of getting a Sony VW10HT projector, but since I have never had one, or even seen one, I was hoping someone can answer a few questions that I have. Can I easily hook this up to my DVD player using "Component Video Cables"? Do I need to "Calibrate" the projector to display proper...

*ALL TITLES MUST GO WITHIN 2 WEEKS OR ELSE I'LL AUCTION THEM ON E-BAY! *I AM WILLING TO TRADE "BAND OF BROTHERS" STILL SEALED! Hi Everyone, I have a couple of DVDs that I want to either sell or trade. If you want to buy, I will pay for shipping. If you want to trade, I have a really good...

Hi Everyone, I was checking my e-mail, and this is a message I got (Has anyone ever bought from them? Are they reliable?): Hello, We would like to introduce you to a new $9.95 movie DVD website: where you can purchase every title for wholesale prices, directly from us. ALL DVDS ARE BRAND...

Hello Everyone, I was wondering about D-VHS, and I was thinking about when DVD first came out. When DVD first came out, VHS suddenly got cheaper, and cheaper, because nobody wanted them anymore, so maybe now with D-VHS DVDs will come down in price to about $5-$15 bucks each??? BTW, Has...

Why do all the people in the world hate upgrading DVDs? Don't you guys *like* to see your favourite movie remastered to LOOK better and SOUND better? There are so many people that are 100% against upgrading their movies, but they are constantly upgrading their speakers, and their TVs! It seems...

Hi Everyone, Everyone always mentions how "Toy Story (Part 1)" and "Pitch Black" are absolute reference quality DVDs, but on my Sony Wega, there are two scenes that stand out, that just look absolutely horrible. In Toy Story, near the end, one of the toys or maybe the boy (I can't remember...

Just a quick question that I hope someone can answer for me: Is Columia going to go back and Re-Do *ALL* of their Superbit Titles to SUPERBIT DELUX 2 DVD sets? The reason I ask this, is because the Patriot was just released on Superbit and now it's released AGAIN on Superbit Delux. This...

Hi Everyone, I managed to get a hold of the Fox Demo Disc #1, and liked it a lot! I can't believe that it included my TWO favourite THX trailers on it: Lightning Ball (I don't know the name of it) & TEX Anyway, I was wondering if maybe Fox had any intentions of releasing a 2nd disc...
