    UPDATED 20 May NYC Home Ent Show:Voom at CES was best display/information of the show

    Sony style has dual layer DVD burner not HD DVD burner, the dual layer DVD burner is 9.4 gb, that's not 25-30gb , which is what u get for HD DVD

    VOOM picture quality - DVI vs. component

    No I just did 56 point calibration myself and I also used DVE. for 1600 $TV , I can't justify to pay 300$ more for calibaration .Hopefully I will get plasma or a better display technology in 2-3 yrs. :smug

    VOOM picture quality - DVI vs. component

    I agree but the picture in my toshiba 57h83 feels more sharp compared to component, in my IMHO. DVI Colors are a little bit washed out

    VOOM STB Version 00.05.68: Features/Bugs/Requests

    Exactly I noticed the same bug too , but good thing it wont lock up STB, u dont need to reboot. Just go to next channel and comeback then the channel works fine. It is a bit annoying but definitely better than STB locking up :)

    zooming 4:3 to fill 16:9 screen

    I set my STB to auto ( all lights lit using red button), now I can adjust the theater wide stretch of toshiba when i watch SD, even when my input is DVI, STB automatically switches to 480, 720 and 1080 format very well and I use toshiba wide format which is very good for SD channels

    what do you do if the box locks up?

    First 2 days I had like 4-5 lockups, then I have not had one also. But I have been very carefull. I dont flip the channels that many times , I just browse the program guide using up down buttons and select the channel through that.

    zooming 4:3 to fill 16:9 screen

    U can use the stretch mode for 4:3 SD transmission in voom settings, u will get full screen in 16:9 TV screens and it definitetly prevents burn in. But u may not like the picture as voom stretch mode is not that great
