    HR20-700/Slimline Question

    I already have 3 HR20-700's and yesterday I had the 5LNB Slimline Dish with the Zinwell 6x8 multiswitch installed. Everything works fine, however when I go through the set-up it finds all of the satellites except the 99. It says it "failed" on that one for all 3 HR20-700's. Is this normal? ~Josh

    A Petition for Universal to Support Blu-ray

    It appears that the new exclusive Disney releases on Blu-ray will be 50GB VC-1 transfers. That 20 GB's more then what HD-DVD can produce. It will of course at the least equal the PQ of HD-DVD, most likely surpase HD-DVD in AQ and still have room for some great Extra's. ~Josh
