Is there any other component using any HDMI connection? I ask because it is possible that your PS3 is sharing the same HDMI slot your other component is. Example my PS3 is hooked up to my reciever as well as my cable box and they both are on HDMI-1 on my TV set. So If I want to watch TV I select...

Wow this thread is still going:) That is good! Keeps people informed of scams. The people that sell these electronics out from the back of a truck is a SCAM!! The stuff they sell is junk that they claim is worth thousands but the fact is that when you buy them for that $200 you were...

I've posted this link before I think it's pretty cool. Give it a look it pertains to your question. Article is named : 1080p Does Matter – Here's When (Screen Size vs. Viewing Distance vs. Resolution) http://carltonbale.com/1080p-does-matter

Years ago I went to a job interview that was for managers. And basically was the White Van scam they put out a Manager opening capable of making $$$$ a week. When you get to this warehouse they have like 15 different applicants standing around while 10 guys are trying to sell you into...

Hey, I may be able to have someone I know run a Tag-Talk on that tag# you have. What state are you in and need the TAG#?   If she can do it then you will have this guys Full name and address. Then you can show up at his door with your request for refund. Bring a few friends this way if...

You got worked most likely. Could try returning it to the store Insignia Is a Best Buy brand I think. This is a very long shot and BB will most likely ask for a reciept. When the screen breaks on these things they are just not worth the cost of repair since you can get a new TV alot...

Do you mean the remote does not respond fast? Most likely it's just the the software ( User Menu, Guide,Options..etc..etc) thats slow. Time Warner/BrightHouse thier user interface is not very great and mine was very slow as well even would lock up quite a bit. Only fix for this would be the...

No problem, The system you have is a HTiB and only has 1 input which is optical. You can use the optical input on the reciever for your cablebox this way it will decode the Dolby digital surround sound. Keep in mind not all standard definition broadcasts will output Dolby almost all HD...

What model Panasonic Reciever is it? Red,White & Yellow cables are a composite connection that uses 2ch stereo. Depending on your setup reciever? Cable box? You would need either a Optical (S/PDIF) or HDMI cable running into your reciever in order for your cable to have Dolby surround...

Yeah the LaserDisc player is cool I ordered quite a few movies through Ebay & Amazon but they all shipped via media mail. So the player got here in a zippy 2-3 days and still not 1 movie has come yet.lol Finally decided to hit Goodwill for giggles and sure enough they had 1 LD movie...

Do all the EVO's lack a KB? I am with Sprint so not sure if there are other EVO's with a KB. The Samsung Epic 4g is identical to the EVO in every way but has a Keyboard and uses an Amoled screen it is 4.0 inch screen instead of the EVO's 4.3 but when I was looking at both side by side the Epic...

I picked up the Samsung Interceptor about 2 weeks ago. The apps I enjoy are.   Pandora ArcMedia Wifi Analyzer ACV (Comic book reader) Tv.com Mort Player (Audio Books) Weather Channel Verizon Fios DVR Manager. Google Sky Map   I love the phone it self it has a speedy...

My take on 3d that requires glasses is a waste. They are very close to completing 3d without glasses the new DS already uses this technology.   Persoanlly I didn't care about the 3d option but when the new TV's come that are 3d w/out glasses then my interest will peak until then... todays...

I bought a industrial Pioneer CLD-V2400 Laser Disc Player. WhiIe I realize it's not the best but got it for $20 and always wanted a Laser Disc Player back in the day but due to how young I was and the price for the technology I could not afford it. So now that I have a few extra $$ and can...

Okay, I see that's very cool indeed that you can have your setup like that.   My friend has an Insignia 32" LCDTV wonder if it can be setup the same?

@MalteseChicken Alot of Surround Systems show the icons on the front in the led display. I can have all my speakers enabled on the Wii but it's not true Dolby Digital it's simulated Dolby. Now if I play a DVD for instance that has DTS sound my reciever will tell me I am using DTS this...

You would run from the TV's output to the recievers Input.

From what your saying your Netflix app is built in the TV so this would require you to either play the sound from the TV speakers or run audio output to your reciever. If you have optical output on back of your TV set that will work fine and if you only have component audio out that can be...

You could run the optical wire from the cablebox to the reciever and this would then do Dolby Digital 5.1 if the channel/Movie supports it..mostly HD channels do but have seen some that do not. From your TV to the reciever would only be good if you were using an HDTV Antenna.   Using...

I was always under the assumption that any Television that supported 576 (288 Line) would work just fine with any PAL Movie as long as the player itself could output a PAL signal. My last HDTV Panasonic projection TV I bought here in the states supported 480i/p,576p,1080i. Was purchased in...

Thanks I figured it was pretty useless but was curious about it none the less.

Has anyone used this? and if so what are your thoughts? Is it worth it? I want to go ahead and get this but would really like to hear what other users think of it before I go and buy a kit w/ extra kickers.     http://thebuttkicker.com/

It is some sort of Dolby Digital Box. But how is it used and what connects to it? Is it a demodulator of some sort? I sometimes buy boxes full of wires & stuff and was digging through some of them this morning and found this. Pictures aren't that great had to use my Cell camera.    

Very cool link:)   I never purchased those $100-$200 HDMI cables always thought that stuff was a sham. It's amazing these companies will try and squeeze people dry for a lousy Video cable after already spending a boat load of $$ on TV's and Stereo Equipment.   I know people need to make...

Are there really stupid reasons though?   I mean if i'm spending my $$ I want what I want. Even if it seems trivial to one person it may mean everything to that person spending thier hard earned money.  

While Plasmas do not burn in like they used to they still do burn in. Any Stagnant image from a computer desktop is not good for a Plasma TV. I was not referring to using a PC as a BR player I was referring to if you use your PC on your TV as a desktop PC Surfing the nets..regular PC use...

Here's the Panasonic Web page you will see a download info tab. Click it and you will get the manual this will have the information your looking for. http://www.panasonic.co.uk/html/en_GB/Products/Home+Cinema/DVD+Home+Cinema+Systems/SC-PT470/Specification/2235408/index.html?trackInfo=true...

Any TV that looks like the screen is intact not cracked or broken should be something to open up and look at the capacitors. I have even posted on Craigs list to buy broken LCD televisions with good screens. You will be quite suprised how many of these get tossed for a few dollar fix.  

LCD's TV's are producing rich colors and black levels that are very acceptable. Not exactly like Plasma but very close.   To me I always boiled it down to what you mostly use your TV for... Movies.Blurays & DVDs then Plasmas the way to go.   Multimedia: Gaming,PC connection or HTPC...

Yeah I been doing the capacitors repair for years. I posted on my blog awhile back how I think they should have extended warranties on the caps alone. What will really get people is when they return thier LCD Monitor or TV in for repair they replace only the caps that went bad and leave the...
