Stupid settings. FYI, if you have difficult to listen voice audio on your surround sound setup, change the mode STEREO to PLIIx C. Too bad I didn’t fix it until after D$ & Clew left. Classic MacGruber.

Teeebbs, I don’t like where are little exchange is heading if the future contains more of this: Action flicks for kids movies! Are you taking my FF team persona personal? I can switch to the Clew “Man Stalker” pic that graced the polar bear club T if it’ll remedy the situation.

I know Teeebbs is in the market for a universal remote so I’ll drop a quick post about the one I have. My remote is a Harmony 550 that I use to manage 4 devices.  My folks have a 550 too that manages 4 devices that replaced 3 remotes. To setup, the remote plugs in [...]

My DirecTV HD-DVR will stream movies if hooked up to a network (wired.) Since my DVD player died in the move to the new crib, I’ve been looking to just network the DVR and stream my content instead of buying another DVD player. Also, the roommate has been begging for a way to network the [...]

I know Clew is in the market for a big TV, I don’t know if anyone else is though. Prices are getting ready to drop $400 so wait just a little longer. On that link, there is a list of model #s. You’ll see the Sharp Aquos 52″ 1080p HDTV model #LC-52D64U for $2700. The [...]
