    new DirecTV DVR connection

    I just upgraded my original DirecTV receiver to an HD DVR. Unfortunately the new outputs are a little different. I'm running to a Marantz projector. Originally, I was doing this through a RGB cable connection, but the new DVR has no RGB output. It does have the HDMI output, however. Is...

    projector image "surge"

    Thanks for the response. It seems to happen only with the DVD player or laserdisc player. I don't believe it is the bulb, because I am on my second bulb and it happened with both.

    projector image "surge"

    I'm having a strange problem with my Marantz DLP S2 projector. At random points in a DVD, the image will suddenly get brighter. It is as though the image "pops" -- like the blink of an eye -- and then looks brighter. It happens quickly and is almost imperceptible to some, but it drives me...

    Back to the Future boxset

    Hello. I want to buy the Back to the Future boxset, but I am a little hesitant because I understand the first batch had some serious framing/cropping issues. Apparently these have been fixed in later releases. How do I tell if the boxset I'm buying is the "fixed" version? Is there a code on...

    Lip Sync problems with new DLP theater

    Hello. I'm new to all this and not exactly sure where to post this question. I have a recently installed home theater with the Marantz S2 DLP projector, Interga 8.3 AV receiver and Integra 8.3 DVD. I'm thrilled with the room, except for lip sync issues I have on most (but not all) DVDs...

    Audio for Laserdisc Player

    Hi. I'm new to this and thought I'd ask for help. We are putting a media room in our basement. Primary use will be watching DVDs with a front projector (Marantz or Runco DLP). I also have an old Pioneer DVL-700 combo laserdisc player that I would like to make use of for some of my LDs that...
