Hi --
I only got into the home Theater thing with the onset of DVD. I do however, have one or two VHS tapes that I need to view. (the Widescreen version of Lost Highway, for example).
Since I got my DVD player and DD/DTS receiver, I haven't hooked my VCR back up. I feel the need to do so.
My questions are these:
1. What sound do you get out of a VHS? Do I set the receiver to Dolby Pro Logic? And if so, does it matrix the L and R channel to give me a center channel?
2. Whats the deal with the THX Star Wars video tapes? What do they give you audio wise that other video tapes don't give you.
3. And finally, I'm guessing because of #1, that the dialogue isn't anchored in the center.
