    NOTHING impressive about Jurassic Park III

    I have the R2 SB JP3 and I consider it to have the best video quality in my collection. As far as audio, the bass is good but I get annoyed at its inconsistency. A dino will run around in one scene with thundering steps, then the same animal, or an even larger one, will run around in another...

    Blackhawk Down Superbit review?

    Has there been a review of this title? I've done the searches but I can't seem to find much info. Has anyone compared the Superbit with the original? Thanks!

    White to black transition problem?

    Well after doing all I can to fix this, I can say that it's not going to go away. Red push, CUE, and EE are nothing compared to phosphor lag. Simply horrible and makes alot of dark movies unwatchable (X2 and Underworld were a waste of $$$ for me). If this is the way the HS500 is, I'm sorry but I...

    FS: R2 Jurassic Park 3 Superbit

    It'll play without subtitles. The cover shows 2 tracks, DTS ES and Dolby Digital EX (doesn't have the typical 5.1 or 6.1 indication). :)

    Region 1 the lowest quality?

    Me neither since I live in Canada :) The point is that they are still around so even if retailers are listing them as "out of print" it shouldn't be too hard to find through mail order.

    Region 1 the lowest quality?

    They're still on the shelves in DVD shops in Japan. A friend of mine picked up a copy for me the other day at a local store.

    White to black transition problem?

    Thanks Chris. Looks like this is my problem. I'm not sure if it's always been there and just noticed, or if it's a new problem. It just jumps out at me now. If this problem persists I'm gonna kick myself for spending all this $$$ on this set.

    White to black transition problem?

    Actually I have my contrast set as best I can with DVE. I'll try turning the contrast ("Picture" setting I think) down even more and see what happens. Thanks.

    White to black transition problem?

    Sorry, I'm posting in the newbie area because a: I'm a newbie and b: I don't know what this problem is called so I don't know what to search for. When I watch a scene with say a white face, and then the scene changes to a completely dark scene, for a split second I can still see the face of...

    Great sounding movies without bass?

    Because that's not really the point. Sure, I could watch T3 with the bass turned way down, but it just wouldn't be the same. I'd be watching a movie with a range of sound missing. I'm wondering about titles with great sound which happen to not have much bass. This way I can watch a dvd as it...

    Great sounding movies without bass?

    Can anybody recommend some good movies with great sound, but without alot of bass? Some nights I just want to kick back and enjoy my HT, but I live in a basement and it can rumble the entire house! Thanks...

    panny s25s vs. toshiba 4900

    Posted by Jeff W. "The Toshiba has serious color problems, do NOT get that one. I have no idea about the Panasonic though." Care to expand on this statement? What do u mean by color problems? Anywhere where I can find more info on this problem? I can't seem to find much info out there...

    Toshiba SD-4900

    "No aspect ratio control, which is somewhat odd." I was just playing with one at the store and in the menu there were 3 different settings. 2 different 4:3 options (can't remember what they were) and 16:9. Is this considered aspect ratio control or no? Thanks for the input!
