| Getting out of market HD broadcasts Steve Dell 01:33:32 |
| | I live in the northwest section of Tucson AZ. Most of the transmitters for
the TV stations are blocked by mountains to get to my residence.
I applied for a variance thru DirecTV. All that came back approved was ABC
which I now get thru the west coast feed. What is the trick to get the rest
of these since antennae will not work where I'm located.

| reboot for no reason? Jeff 23:20:18 |
| | I have a Hughes 40 hour DirecTV tivo unit that will occasionally suddenly
reboot itself for no good reason that I can identify. What would cause that
kind of behavior?

| Series 2 HD recovery Dgtlshdw@Gmail.Com 21:47:51 |
| | Hello, all,
My TiVo series 2 box just bit the dust. It's been stuck in 'Pending
Restart' now for a few weeks, and so has not been able to download
program information. After calling TiVo, they told me that the hard
drive was bad, and so now I've got a replacement box on the way.
However, I have a dilemna; I've been saving about 20 episodes of a
serial on my box, and I'd like to be able to dump them. TTG isn't
working, so I'm wondering if I can mount the TiVo HD in one of my Linux
machines and retrieve the episodes. Can anyone tell me if this is
possible?
Much thanks,
Kevin

| Timestamps in mpeg4 Rickard Engberg 14:55:58 |
| | Hi!
I was just wondering if a raw mpeg4 bitstreams contains timestamps or
if it's just the container format that
has timestamps?

| skipping while recording Fjqurs 06:04:12 |
| | just received a new tivo. had the same problem with another one.
after recording a show when playing it back, the tivo recording seems to
have skipped certain spots in the show. kind of a jerky recording. on my
last one it was some channel, lets say A, and on the new one it is channel
B.
i know it is not the cable box because if i bypass the tivo everything is
ok.
any ideas?

| Putting two tivos on the home network... Dg 05:49:10 |
| | Set up a wireless Tivo connection with two Tivos and our home network
of three computers.
D-Link WBR-1310 Router was new and has four ethernet ports and a
wireless receiver.
There was some difficulty in that Tivo only seems to use WEP and 64
bit Hex Shared Keys. Doesn't say that in the documentation.
We can now do Tivo > Tivo, Tivo > Computer and computer files(music,
pictures, etc) > Tivo
Easy to do and quite rewarding having more access to the computer and
TV shows.

| AC3 -> PCM duration gets longer Dimitri 00:22:47 |
| | My brother recorded a tv show for me, that I wanted to edit for making a
DVD. I ripped the recorded DVD to separate audio and video files. Then I
wanted to edit the AC3 audio file, so I converted it to PCM. Can anyone
explain me why the duration changed? The AC3 was about 43 minutes, and
the PCM more than 45 minutes. I tried several AC3 editors, but all of
them showed this problem.
The source TV-system was PAL, so was the destination, and also the
samplerate was 48 kHz in source and destination.

| HD Camcorder Stevie 18:06:51 |
| | Not sure if this is the right newsgroup but here goes:
I am considering buying a Sony HD Camcorder and I have a question in regard
to DVD burning: If I record in HD can I transfer to my PC and be able to
play back with the same quality. The same question applies to DVD burning.
If image is burned to DVD will the origianl quality be played back on
player?
Thanks

| LCD Screen Programmable Remote question Mindesign 05:38:25 |
| | Hi again all
Am wondering how good the latest offering of Chinese LCD touchscreen remotes
are...... have seen numerous offerings on eBay but it's all a bit
onfusing - I have owned various ones several years ago and while all had
their benefits, each had its limitations for example, they wouldn't learn
one of my TV's codes etc.
Am just wondering if there is a remote out there - even a brand name I
guess - that can do the following:
Large screen size - more like a 5 inch screen than a large mobile phone
screen
Learn practically every basic function from up to 8 devices
change icons on the touch screen to suit the piece of equipment
have downloadable software/firmware upgrades
allow icons to be imported via PC etc.
fully support renaming of controls
built in rechargeable battery
.... or if regular batteries, doesn't die after 3 weeks like the old Sony
one I had
I am sure I could come up with other needs but this would be a good start
any info gratefully received
Steve

| Backup Underworld Evolution Jay Stevens 04:46:19 |
| | I would have to say that I have exhausted all possibilities in backing up
Underworld Evolution widescreen.
I tried:
DVD Shrink
DVD Decrypter
DVD Fab Decrypter
VObBlanker
Nothing works.
I have the latest editions of all of these.
What can I do?
What's the secret?
Thanks for your help
Jay Stevens
