Here’s a video I cut together as my own personal “pre-feature” intro for when I watch movies in my home theatre. It’s got that movie tribute feel too. Hope you enjoy.

UPDATE: Due to the overwhelming number of requests I’ve gotten for this video, it’s recently been made available online. You can download it for your own personal home theatre use here:

ftp://mystuff.webhop.org/

There are 2 versions. One is a standard, compressed quicktime file. The other is uncompressed. Obviously, the uncompressed video is a much larger file, but the quality may be significantly better. How long they’ll be available is unknown, so be sure to get them soon.

Please don’t email with any special requests for re-edits because I won’t be doing any. Also, please don’t email with requests for a “hi-res” or “hi-def” version. One does not exist. All clips were captured from standard resolution sources. Thanks for your interest in my work.

Like if you download videos from the Internet and they are WMV, how can you convert them into MPEGs so they can play into your DVD player. I burned some WMV videos into a DVD but they wont play in my DVD-R/RW player.

We have a DVD with Video_TS file that includes IFO and BUP files too, however it does not play on my Panasonic/Sony DVD player. Is there a way to convert/burn/copy on a DVD-R using Roxio/Nero or some other software. Thanks

I have a Onkyo 674 HD upconverting AV receiver with 2 HDMI inputs & 1 output ; a Samsung R135 DVD upconverting recorder with 1 HDMI out ; a Sony VCR (only composite connections) ; a Samsung 46 Inch LCD HDTV with 2 HDMI in ; a Dish digital reciever (no HD for now).

Please suggest the cables needed (HDMI, Component, etc.) and the best way to connect using Onkyo as the network and maximising performance for video and audio.

Thank you.

In the movie “The Wedding Singer,” Drew Barrymore’s fiance comes home with his latest purchase, a CD player. He’s very happy with his accomplishment because, being the materialistic kind of guy that he is, he’s proud of thee fact that it cost about $700. Of course, the joke is on him and the entire audience knows it, because the average price of a CD player today is only a couple of hundred dollars. Still, in 1985, the year in which this movie is set, I’m sure that $700 for a CD player was a good deal.

All electronics, from computers to alarm clocks, are prohibitively expensive when the first come on the market, but they become more affordable as time goes on. Home theatre audio systems have been no different. What was once a luxury item that only people like Donald Trump could afford is now something that tens of thousands of Americans have in their homes. The market has been, and continues to be, flooded with new and cheaper audio systems, especially those of the HTiB, or Home Theatre in a Box, variety. But again, as with all electronics, you get what you pay for, and not all of these systems are created equal. When selecting a home theatre audio system, there are several factors that need to be balanced, including quality, price, and size.

If you’re in college, don’t have a lot of disposable income, but simply must have a home theatre audio system, chances are you’re going to end up with a budget-priced HTiB. These systems, which usually feature small satellite speakers and subwoofers, have an inclination toward spotty sound quality and lack sheer oomph. To quote Napster in The Italian Job, a budget-priced HTiB will never be “loud enough to blow women’s clothes off.” But while Napster might disapprove, such systems have their upsides. They are, as mentioned, affordable for the average individual, and they also tend to have the advantages of being compact and comparatively easy to assemble.

Or perhaps you own a downtown loft in a high rise somewhere and you want a theatre audio system that coordinates with such an ambiance. Some HTiB manufactures offer systems that feature style and are overtly sleek in appearance. A home theatre audio system that goes this route will often have very petite satellite speakers, or perhaps “tallboys,” which are very slender but as much as sixty inches tall. The advantage of a style-centric HTiB, in addition to its elegant appearance, will probably include lots of features and simplicity of set up. The disadvantages? Such a system will probably have limited bass output and limited connectivity options.

Some manufactures are now offering component packages, which are built around separate components. These systems, while forfeiting the traditional HTiB advantage of compactness, usually have the benefits of solid build quality and variety of features. However, as mentioned, such a home theatre audio system will probably be fairly large and clunky, which won’t work if you need to fit it into your studio apartment.

Finally, if you want to go cutting-edge, there are wireless HTiB systems that utilize the very latest in audio technology. These are great if you can afford them, since they save space while maintaining high quality. But as mentioned, they can be extremely expensive and in some cases, you’re better off buying separate components.

*gYpSy* asked:


I have a few movies that a friend of mine copied to blank dvds on their computer. I found that I can play the dvds on my laptop and on my bf’s older dvd player, but not on my dvd players (which are more updated).

If I use a blank dvd to record a movie or tv show, will the dvd even play on most dvd players or do I have to find an older dvd player to watch them?

Also, do most dvd recorders just record or playback the dvds as well?

Thanks, I never had a dvd recorder so I don’t know much about them…. :)
