    Netflix Raises Fees for Blu-Ray...AGAIN!!!

    I just cancelled my Blockbuster membership because of similar issues. I have had them for over 3 years and over that period of time they diminished my services (and increased my monthly cost) 3 times. It was a very good deal at the beginning because you had unlimited free exchanges in-store to...

    Should I do it?

    Not sure what other's experiences are but I bought the HD-a2 back in the late fall and the HD-DVD's I've got look GREAT! But, the main reason for the post is the excellent job the unit does of upconverting. I bought a PS3 in February and while it upconverts well it does not come close to the...

    Sent my rebate in first week of February and received mine yesterday. Just in time for my PS3 to crap out (not recognizing any disks) right in the middle of Flight of the Phoenix. Got an in-warranty replacement on the way.

    Screen Fill with PS3

    With your Sammy 5054 just be a little careful, especially if new, since plasma prone to some image retention. After watching a movie with "black bars" you should watch some full screen content with no static images for a while. If t.v. is "broken-in" you shouldn't have too many worries.

    Are you bailing on HD DVD?

    I completely agree. I just got a PS3 this past Friday. While I really like my HD-DVD player I can now also enjoy Blu-Ray!

    Have your 5 Free HD-DVD Movies arrived?

    Probably no rhyme or reason as to how they send them out. The people on the tail end of one set of DVD's may have to wait until that stock is replenished, while the more current submissions can be sent out immediately. Then again, I have been know to spew some from time to time. Could also be...

    So what do you think of your $98 HD DVD player?

    Do you have it upconverting SD-DVD to 1080i or 720P? I have heard that the player does a much better job of scaling 1080i. That's where mine is set and it does a fantastic job of upconverting. Makes SD-DVD's look close to HD. Of course I agree that HD-DVD's look absolutely amazing!!

    $169.99 Toshiba A3 HD DVD player

    I have an older Sony 46" RPTV with DVI. I purchased the A2 (1080i) a month ago (just got the CC price match for $199). HD DVD looks outstanding and the A2 does a superb job of upconverting SD DVD. I believe the A2 or A3 would be a good choice. Other than the A3 being the next generation...

    Up converted standard dvds don't fill my screen

    Did you double check to ensure you have 16:9 selected in the A-3 setup. My t.v. also has the ability to change aspect ratio's but only for 480P or less video. I have run many SD DVD's through my A-2 and they all seem to be shown properly. Also, are the DVD's that you're having trouble with...

    Toshiba HD-A2 with DVI HDTV

    You may want to check out your t.v. model # under AVS forum and see if there are any other problems with other people out there re: copy protection and/or problems connecting with the A-2.

    Toshiba HD-A2 with DVI HDTV

    It does, but only out through the HDMI port. I have my A-2 hooked up with a HDMI / DVI cable to my Sony 46" RPTV (it only has DVI, no HDMI input). I have the A-2 cranked up to 1080i ouptut. I have watched both standard and HD DVD's. PQ and SQ on the few HD DVD's I've watched are both...

    Toshiba HD-A2 with DVI HDTV

    Agreed. There may be some "handshake" issues in the first release. The firmware upgrade will definitely narrow the issues.

    Toshiba HD-A2 with DVI HDTV

    I would think (although I'm no expert by an means) that your t.v. has HDCP. That being said, it does sound like your firmware does need updated. I would go to the Toshiba website (or call) and order the udpate CD. Sorry I couldn't be of any more help!

    Toshiba HD-A2 with DVI HDTV

    I also have a HD-A2. I've only had it for a couple of weeks. My T.V. has a DVI connection that I use a HDMI to DVI cable for. I haven't had any problems playing anything before or after I updated the firmware. Does your t.v. have HDCP (high definition content protection)? I have read that could...
