    Direct Tivo question

    I wanted to get a direct tive receiver for my bed room, but was wondering if I would have to run two seperate lines into it. if so, can I just use a spliter, or do I need to use a multiswitch like the Terk BMS-34? Thanks for any help that you might be able to supply me.

    Over the air high def with Samsung TS160

    well that blows... do you think that I would be able to use the double bowtie and get the HD channels? Is that what is happening when it say searching for signal? It is looking to find them, but my antenna is not good enough? Argh:angry:

    Over the air high def with Samsung TS160

    I am not sure if I am doing this right or not. When I go through and set up my box it lists three diffrent channel 2, 4, and 7's. When I go to them the picture is normal on one, the second is all dark like there is nothing found (says searching for signal), and the third is all fuzzy like the...

    Problem with Hughes HIRD-E86 (no high def signal)

    the channels are HDNET, HBOHD, ESPNHD, and DiscoveryHD. When I switch to s-video I get the same black screen, same thing if I use RCA's or Coax cables. I only see two fo the three transpondes. I will have to check to see if I somehow missed the third one. The tv is a new Panasonic 50" lcd tv...

    What is the best hdtv that best buy sells?

    Yea... The plasma is nice, but a bit out of his range. What we ended up doing was getting the new Mitsubishi WS-55313 HDTV. With Best buy being sold out of the DLP's and them not allowing us to use our discount to buy one once they did come in it made it a bit easier to decide. The only...

    What is the best hdtv that best buy sells?

    Yea, we do sell Mits tv's. So it will not look that good because we aren't running HD on it? I mean, it won't look any worse then what we get now will it? As for him holding me acountable, that is why I asked this question here. No other place has as much info about home theater stacked into...

    What is the best hdtv that best buy sells?

    My father in law is looking to get a HDTV and seeing as how I work at Best Buy we can get a pretty good discount on any of the models that we sell. My question is this... Knowing all that you do about tvs what would be the one to get that is the best. I was thinking the Samsund 50" DLP, but...
