    VOOM vs ZenithDVB318 1080i DVD player

    Looks like the Firmware upgrade can be done thru a CD-ROM. see specs http://www.wildwestelectronics.net/zedv10ouprsc.html I wonder if can do wm9, have you checked T2 release in 1080p. If it does wm9 then it should down convert to 1080i. (at least that's the claim).

    VOOM to employ Windows Media 9

    All codecs are free to the consumer. that's want they want. MS wants you to buy the wm9 HD DVD disc for 21.99. There's where the money is. MS will get a cut. PS A codec is not like another piece of software (ie MS IE)

    DVD-Recorders

    I have seen this happen with home videos I have sent to my family. It will read fine on my DVD player, but theirs will freeze up after a time. I believe it goes back to the media.
