    Optoma HD20 DLP Projector Review

    One weird thing I've noticed since I got it is tthat sometimes the projector turns on all by itself! I set the auto shut off to 5 minutes so that it will shut itself off if it happens again. Its just weird.

    ps3 sound quality

    ah, the other question was already answered Your PS3 won't output 192 kHz in CD playback, because CDs aren't recorded that high, only some SACDs or DVD-Audios. Depending on your PS model, you can play SACDs. Regular CDs are recorded at 44.1, so no matter what you do, it won't come out as 192

    ps3 sound quality

    Pcm Set your Playstation to PCM, the PS3 decodes all the newest Blu Ray audio codecs including DTS HD MA. (The PS3 will bitstream old audio codecs like Dolby Digital EX and DTS , but it cannot bitstream 7.1 or the new Blue Ray codecs. ) Your receiver will show this as PCM, because...

    MediaMonkey to manage Media collection

    thanks media monkey! I've always wanted my own monkey! Thanks! I downloaded this, and so far I do like it better. I used to use musicmatch jukebox, but they've changed that into a useless program to sell downloaded music.

    Study Concludes Blu-ray Not Red-Hot

    I rent blu ray I got into Blu Ray because I finally made the splurge and bought a PS3. Although I love movies, and PS3's ability to play Blu Ray was a big factor, the deciding factor was Grand Theft Auto IV, and wanting to have a game system that my son didn't already have. Although I will...

    PS3 DTS-HD Master Audio

    Symol aside, its the new codec! PS3 decodes the new blu ray codecs and sends them out decoded as PCM. Your receiver will only display the new codec symbols if IT decodes them. PS3 outputs the signal decoded as PCM. Check the display option on your PS3 to confirm that the new blu ray codec...

    Was Dylan The Best Lyricist Of All Time?

    subjective although I think this thread is HIGHLY subjective, I would also put Neil Young near the top of my list. His songs have so much feeling in them. I think it is truly impossible to state a particular song writer is the BEST, becuase it is a very personal subjective experience...

    Can someone tell me what this means?

    Which is still a violation of the law, for which you can be imprisoned or fined heavily. As an attorney, I can tell you that although the PAPERS may say you were on trial for "theft" the District Attorney's Office will have all the charges under the proper Federal Statutes. Theft is simply a...

    I have M 60s and MC 400 in my bedroom setup, and I like them both for music and movies. They are a very good speaker, especially in their price range.
