    PS3 having online multiplayer issues

    I'm having issues playing online multiplayer on Call of Duty 3 on my PS3. I've been having issues, and I thought that it was because of the PS3 transmitting wirelessly. So I've finally (after 9 years) gotten my prewired Cat 5e network in my home setup correctly with a patch panel instead of...

    Gran Turismo HD now on Playstation Store

    For a limited time, the Gran Turismo HD game is available on the Playstation Store for free. I haven't had a chance to download it yet, since my youngest daughter is busy playing games on the PS3. When will Sony get the multitasking feature added so things can be downloading while games...

    Will the PS3 accept IR universal remotes?

    I believe the answer to this is no... Will the PS3 be able to be controlled with an IR universal remote, specifically for DVD playback? I feel like a goof using the Sixaxis controller to play DVD's, and the controller isn't completely intuitive to just pick up and know what to do. Now...

    5 HD sources with 2 HDMI and 3 Component Inputs

    I'm looking at getting a new receiver that can handle the multiple HD sources I now have. I have two devices with HDMI, and at least two more with Component only. My question is, can a receiver (for this example, I am looking at the Onkyo TX-SR674) that has 2 HDMI labelled as IN1 and IN2 be...

    Playable PS3 kiosk at Target

    Went into Target Saturday night, and found that they have a kiosk with a playable PS3. I was a little disappointed with the system's interface, it seemed slow and unresponsive when cycling through the selections for movies, pics, games, etc. The game loadtimes seemed to be pretty long as...

    622 installed, but no Dish 1000 included

    Well, the day finally arrived. After ordering the ViP 622 on 2/1/06 and getting it from UPS on Valentine's Day, my 2/21 install date came. My installer, Scott from DNS, called to see if he could come earlier than my 12-5 install time! That was a shock, but I work 1 hour away and told him I...

    What happened to the Atlanta LiL HD channels?

    When the MPEG 4 plans were announced, Atlanta LiL HD was being touted by Dish as one of the first cities to be broadcast in HD. Since that time, I have seen announcements (if I remember correctly, from Dish themselves) swing back and forth...Atlanta HD is on the list and then not on the list...

    I have two goals for my HD: #1 is get ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX. But I can't get them OTA due to distance and terrain. #2 is to be able to record HD by using a HD DVR. Since I can't get OTA, HD LiL or DNS is my only hope. This will require me to join into the MPEG 4 arena with E* because...

    Recording problem with the 811

    I tried to record a show last night on my 811 because we were going to be gone during a show we wanted to watch. I set my VCR and made a timer event on the 811, left the house, and then we got back half way through the show. My wife turns the TV on and there is no sound and a black screen on...

    Discrete power file for 811 for use on MX-700 remote

    Attached is a small file that I exported from the MX-700 Editor that has discrete power for the 811. The supplied 811 remote will need to be changed to address 2 (see your owner's manual for this easy step). Unfortuneately, I didn't try too hard to get the * (SD/HD) button to work since I...
