    Is overscan still a problem with new TVs?

    I didn't realize that about the current crop of HDR sets. Probably best to wait, but if I do end up I pulsing something then I might go a little cheaper. Any thoughts on this Samsung 55" 4K set for $900? No HDR and Probably pretty basic, but I like the looks of the plastic. Mostly black and...

    Is overscan still a problem with new TVs?

    Built in Roku would be nice. Though I'm looking at 55" models. Wish the $900 Samsung at Best Buy had HDR because then I might would impulse it (which I probably shouldn't). Plus, I like the stand on it more than their more expensive SUHD models that I think probably do have HDR. But what's...

    Is overscan still a problem with new TVs?

    That's good. Think I read years ago that overscan shouldn't even be necessary now that we have digital transmissions, but figured maybe my TV is old enough that it was maybe caught in a transition period. Was just starting to look at TV prices and wouldn't be surprised if I bought one a year...

    Apple Users - Cheap iTunes Movie Codes

    Probably no ones going to jail due to protectionsfrom the first sale doctrine, but wonder if it might technically violate any terms of the ultraviolet user agreement. Though perhaps the legality of such EULA would be debatable. As for codes being available mostly for newer releases, that makes...

    Is overscan still a problem with new TVs?

    I've had a Samsung 50 inch plasma for maybe 9 years, and it has a tendency to cut off the bottom of images, such as sports tickers. And when I recently had a chance to borrow a Roku, I realized just how bad it is. For instance, the Vudu app on my bluray player has settings to try and...

    Apple Users - Cheap iTunes Movie Codes

    I have no desire to own movies, physical or streaming; but I could see something like this possibly being an option (albeit a potentially murky option) for those times when a movie is no longer available to rent. It disappoints me that streaming services can only offer a movie for rent for a...

    I got this song in my head and it won't go away!!!

    Well that makes sense, indeed! But there's no doubt we'd have seen a civil war had they not allowed Egypt to secede from the Canadian Union. Amirite?

    So that's what Canadian Civil War-era Gypsies look like! :music-rockout:

    Roku question about movie rental billing

    Oh, sure... I hear what you're sayin'. Between the two of you I think I've got it now. Thanks. Think I'll give Roku a test drive. My brother has a Roku stick sitting unused at the moment that I will reset and start an account on. (Apparently, he gets all the streaming apps he needs from his...

    Roku question about movie rental billing

    I don't have a Roku, but if I understand correctly, it appears that you can keep a credit card on file with your Roku account. But let's say I already have accounts with Vudu, Amazon, and Google Play. And let's say I already have credit cards on file with those individual accounts. My...

    What Are You Listening To?

    Nah... The 2004 album was a self titled 2-CD set. Daylight Again is from the 80s and probably has more Art Garfunkel than Crosby. Still better than that 2004 snooze fest. Probably. And while I'm on the subject of Crosby & Nash... I'd recommend to anyone who has access to Spotify etc to check...

    What Are You Listening To?

    Botch, I really like the Crosby & Nash stuff. I was surprised at how much I liked the ABC years stuff. I expected so little, but like the follow up albums just as much as their first. Well... Maybe not that 2004 album. But the 70s stuff, yes. Don't know why I've not purchased Croz. I...

    Stone Gods - Silver Spoons & Broken Bones Wish they'd release whatever they recorded of their shelved second album.

    What Are You Listening To?

    Been listening to my Super Session SACD for the first time in a long time. I've pretty much relegated my home theater to only the occasional movie. Never for music ever since I downsized to those miniature Cambridge Audio wall-mounted speakers. Blame the cat who jumps on everything. And its...

    DVD A

    Have fun and best of luck! Though I'm not entirely sure I follow exactly what you're trying to do. Are you actually trying to create new 5.1 mixes? Or are you hoping to archive the existing 5.1 Mixes of commercially sold DVD-Audio albums onto DVDs/CDs? I once upon a time did something...

    What Are You Listening To?

    S Club 7. Well... Some of the songs are simply from S Club, since this is a greatest hits album that includes a few tracks from the album after one of the 7 left. Why not S Club 6? Who knows. Maybe they were saving that name for after a couple of kids left S Club Juniors.
