    Kenwood 507 losing digital audio input?

    Everything's pointing to it being my old Toshiba 2008 that's the problem... Disappointing as it has always been a fantastic player, never a problem with any disc, never had audio out of sync, etc... I suspect it'll still work fine with other receivers but some combination of that player and the...

    Kenwood 507 losing digital audio input?

    Well, I've got a Toshiba 2109 hooked into it now (temporarily) and so far it seems to be doing well. It does click through the menus as NickSo mentioned, which my own Tosh 2008 doesn't do, nor does my Apex. So, obviously different players send different amounts of data during the menus and such...

    Kenwood 507 losing digital audio input?

    I'm thinking it's something to do with my player... my Toshiba 2008 may be the culprit... it always worked perfectly before, but it definitely doesn't like the Kenwood. For example, I put in the Termator 2 SE disc, 9 seconds into the movie it clicked. Popped it into my Apex player, it played for...

    Kenwood 507 losing digital audio input?

    Well, it doesn't click when going through the menus, only when it first gets a signal from the DVD (for as long as the receiver is on), then randomly during the movie. I've tried switching it to Digital Manual but as the manual says, it will still change if it feels that it should - and it...

    Kenwood 507 losing digital audio input?

    I just replaced my (now-dead) Technics KX-930 receiver with a Kenwood VR-507, chosen because it was in my price range (~$300) and because it was the only one in that range that featured two coax digital audio inputs, which would mean I wouldn't have to manually switch wires when going between my...

    Will there be a non-SE Star Wars (Ep. IV) DVD?

    I picked up an $80 LD player (dual-side Pioneer, no S-video) out of the local paper. It died about six months later (fails to read any discs) and bought another Pioneer, I think it's a 503 (going off the top of my head here), dual-side, S-video... I don't remember if I paid $80 or $100, but it...

    Horror/Gore DVD Shopping PART II

    OK, this thread finally got me to stop lurking and register. I love the zombie movies but unfortunately there just aren't many out there any more... I'm anxiously awaiting Dawn and Day of the Dead special edition - in fact, I asked George Romero about them about half a year ago, when he...

    Will there be a non-SE Star Wars (Ep. IV) DVD?

    It's been a while, but I recall seeing on TV some "before and after" shots from the SE - I specifically remember a shot of the X-Wings on their way to the Death Star near the end (as they pass a red planet), showing the original film, then the SE, which had the ships looking slightly more...

    Will there be a non-SE Star Wars (Ep. IV) DVD?

    Seamless brancing would be virtually impossible - the SE versions of the trilogy are not just director's cuts, they are almost completely redone. IIRC, every effects shot was "touched up", more detail put on the spaceships, etc, etc, which would mean that very few shots are exactly the same...
