Hi all,
Just a quick post to see if any of our members are willing / able to make a small donation to help cover our running costs?

Is there a difference between expensive hdmi cables and cheap ones? I have a ps3 and I want an hdmi cable for the best picture. Now Sony has official hdmi cables for $60.00 but I've found hdmi cables on Ebay for $2.00-15.00. I know the Sony cables work because it says Sony but I don't know about...

Same here, I won't even buy my HDMI cables at retailers anymore, most are too expensive. I purchase them on-line for around $10@ and have about 8 of them in use. They are perfect for all my HD devices (including Apple TV). Same goes for Toslink cables. Sorry Monster, never bought them and never...

I recently traded in my 2 cable boxes for a Ceton InfiniTV 4 and now all my recordings are copy protected.
I formerly used a pair of Hauppauge HD PVR and was able to record to DVD as a 1080i Blu ray disk using the component output exploit. I'm contemplating using the second HDMI output on my...

You must plug your laptop directly into the TV, or an AV receiver that has HDMI input. Whilst I don't know the Comcast box, I assume it cannot act as a throughput for the laptop to the TV.

Harmony 200

Hi guys
Wondering if anyone has used a harmony 200 on media entre duties
Seen the 300i and have a 680 but the 680 is on it's last legs and wanted so something that I did not have to change the batteries every couple of weeks so was figuring that without the screen it might not eat juice.
Got kids...
Last post
Yes, I had forgotten about the Watch TV button. Other than that, the 300 (and 200) is not a typical Harmony.
Yes, you *can* reprogram FF and REW with other functions, but then you'd lose FF and REW.

Display size problem when going through vga splitter

pballer2oo7 » Sat Oct 29, 2011 6:41 am
I have a Vizio VO42OE tv with VGA input and two Acer A221HQV monitors.
I have the resolution on my laptop VGA out set to 1920x1080. When I plug the Vizio TV into the VGA output it fills the screen perfectly, everything looks wonderful. The problem: when I plug a StarTech ST128L 8-way VGA...

The new set I bought for the bedroom is 3D but I'll never use it so I don't need the glasses that came with the set. If anyone here needs/wants them you have first shot before I put them on Ebay.

Venom, your junk looks similar to mine...except I have more :-D
I see a old C-band feedhorn (well, 1/2 of it) with a couple of (Norsat? Charparral?) LNBs on it.
Those are Norsat's. The rest is out behind the building with some L band's mounted on it. The ones on the shelf are going back on one of...

Not sure if the boards are international, but if anyone in the UK is thinking about swapping to the new Virgin Media V HD box (or V Box HD), I can tell you that it works.
The Box is a Cisco 4585HD, also know as a Scientific Atlanta 4585 HD. It will run box HDMI and Scart out at the same time, and...

Thanks for this. Good to know it works.
Though, like you said, with Tivo available now when/if my STB dies I'll probably just get one of those. It'll happen anyway at some point even without a failure to force the issue. I've already long since stopped spending money on my 7MC machine.

Good MediaCenter Remote (Harmony 300)

For those curious... I'd like to throw out there that even though it's a low-end remote, as compared to the rest of the product line, the Harmony 300 makes a GREAT MediaCenter remote.
You can find them anywhere (Amazon, RadioShack, Target, etc...). They feel very nice. Good weight. Button...
Last post
If your using a Harmony to control windows media center than you must already have some kind of IR receiver hooked up to the PC. I also recommend EventGhost which will let you launch whatever you want. EG is free, there is almost a 100% chance that your IR receiver will already be supported in EG...
