Forgive me if this info has already been posted, I did a quick search and didn't find anything. Anyway, I found a way to add a thirty second skip to my Motorola DCT3416 DVR (the one that Comcast gave me). It's really simple. I made up a little page for it and went a bit overboard with...
I started this new section on my site back at the beginning of the year called "Spot the Seven" where I post two pictures which at first glance look the same but I have made seven changes to the picture and the object is to spot the seven differences. I have made a few changes and additions to...
I made some updates to my site today so I thought I'd share my theater with the fine folks of HTF. Just click the sig and it will bring you to my site. I'd love some feedback, positive or negative. Thanks!
Well I finally got the home theater section of my web site complete. I would love some feedback, positive or negative. There are probably some grammatical errors, I set a goal to get it up by the end of the Memorial day weekend so I kind of rushed it a little. It is going to get edited tonight...
I just got my new camera (Digital Rebel) and I already see the need for a tripod. Was wondering what you all use and if anyone has any recommendations. Would like to keep the cost somewhat down, I'd be willing to go up to around $150 for the tripod and head if need be, maybe up to $200 if it's a...
Well I finally bit the bullet and ordered my new digital camera, a Canon EOS 300D Digital Rebel. This is going to be my first SLR camera so I should have months of learning and fun ahead of me. Hopefully it will get here by next weekend so I can start shooting. I got two books on SLR...
Hi gang, I am considering signing up with cafepress to make T-shirts, mousepads, posters, etc. out of my photoshoped Miatas to offer for sale. I figure it's free, and that page gets a ton of hits, so it is worth a shot. I am just wondering if anyone has ever used them and what your...

Well last night my Panasonic RP-91 bit the dust, after searching around here last night looks like I am not the only one who has suffered the same fate. So now I need a replacement, but here is the twist. I have a Sony G70 projector and I am going to be building a HTPC within the next couple...
Since I don't see one currently running and I have a large collection of screen shots I figured I would start one. My tastes run the gamut and for the last several months I have been taking screen shots from all the DVD's that I get from Netflix so you will see all sorts of movies in this...
Anyone have any recommendations for for a 3 to 6 foot component cable with male RCA connectors on one end and male BNC connectors on the other. I would like to keep the cost under $100 and the cheaper the better. Thanks!
The displays on my DVD player, receiver, etc. are starting to annoy me because they give off too much light. Has anyone ever used window tint to cut down on the brightness? Anyone know if IR commands will pass through the tint? Anyone have any other suggestions for dimming displays? Thanks!
Today is the sixth day in a row that I have not been able to connect to HTF at home. I can connect to about 90% of the web with no problems but a few select sites are not working. I do not get an error saying the page cannot be displayed, IE just hangs and never connects to the site. My email...

It was great. If you are fan of This is Spinal Tap, Waiting for Guffman and Best in Show you will not be dissapointed. The movie was laugh out loud funny and the crowd I saw it with seemed to feel the same way that I did. Eugene Levy puts on a hell of performance as well. :star: :star: :star...
OK, here is how this will work. I will ask some sort of movie or hometheater related question if you get the right answer you will receive points. The number of points that you can win will be listed with the question. Now the rules for each question may vary from question to question, ie...
If so what antenna are you using for your OTA HDTV? I am picking up a Zenith HDV420 tonight!! Unless I here otherwise I am probably going to pick up a Zenith Silver Sensor, good choice for this area? I would prefer an indoor antenna, the room is in the attic and the house is 4 stories (including...

Alright here is the story. I got myself a new computer for Christmas and the problem that I am having is that whenever I go to play a game I great sound from my 5.1 speakers BUT my case speaker beeps constantly. The beeps are not in any particular order or pattern. So far this has only happened...
