Re: Titanic Playback Problem?

I bought Ex Machina from Walmart. Bad skipping 1/2 way thru. Free return back to Walmart the very next day and an almost immediate refund to my Visa. The return took a day, because I did not have...

Re: Breaking Bad does not play on Blu Ray Player

I finally got around to replacing my DVD Breaking Bad set. Seems to play just fine, now that I am 1/2 way thru season 1. The picture is Bad. I guess I am getting very use to HD quality and the first...

Re: Breaking Bad does not play on Blu Ray Player

I'm going to wait til my finance are better and get a Blu Ray set. $70 seems high to me since this series is older. Hell I got GOT for around $70, Blu Ray, a few years ago. That was for the...

Re: What do you think of soundbars compared to speakers?

If you have the room with the space then nothing beats a HTR and some well placed speakers. I use to have a dedicated HTR in my previous house in SoCal. 10 years ago I fled from Calif and settled...

Upgraded my soundbar

I had been using a Samsung 450, a 2ch unit since early 2018. On Black Friday, back in Nov21, I took advantage of the deal of the day for $200+ to get an Samsung A650, a 3ch unit. WoW!

So much...

Re: Re Selling Used Dvds-Is there a market?

I buy them. I bought a bunch of them at a flea market a year ago. Not many flea markets lately cause of Covid. But yeah, for a $, for a movie I like, surface looks good, why not? Even if I only...

Re: Breaking Bad does not play on Blu Ray Player

I just looked it up and found out how to do a soft reset. I'll try that next time this occurs.

Re: Breaking Bad does not play on Blu Ray Player

Okay, I think I figured it out. Or at least I have a fix.

I recently received Downton Abbey complete series in Blu-Ray, and had some jerky audio to get thru during the intro. The main content...

Re: Amazon: Blu-ray discounts and deals mega-thread

I saw one (the second one) after seeing it being promoted for so long. Tirelessly non-stop shooting. I don't think there was a plot, just shooting and a lot.

Re: Breaking Bad does not play on Blu Ray Player

Interesting. I'm not having any reboot issues, nor any issues at all EXCEPT in playing BB.

I do wonder about Samsung though. They no longer make players, which is not good. I like how the...

Breaking Bad does not play on Blu Ray Player

My Samsung will not play BB DVD. It will randomly freeze, then unfreeze and skip ahead, by a minute or two or as many as 20 minutes. All seasons, all episodes and at completely random spots.

Re: Game of Thrones now on Sale!!!

I see that Walmart has matched this price. I guess this is the new normal. Great packaging for the most Epic of HBO shows.

I think I remember paying more for the complete series of the Sopranos...

Re: Upgrading to Blu-Ray

4K is still at premium prices. I can stream 4k via amazon to my Samsung UHD Tv, and with few exceptions, can notice no difference in quality. In a few cases the quality is Wow!!!, but then the...

Re: Game of Thrones on DVD anyone?

I find it is a mixed bag on dvd vs blu-ray. Some Blu-Rays are vastly superior to their DVD equivalent, and some don't make any difference, at least as I can tell on my 49" Samsung. For GOT, I saw...

Re: Upgrading to Blu-Ray

I can't believe that I regularly find Blu-Ray movies that come with DVDs, that is less expensive then the DVDs by themselves. Lots and lots of DVD users out there, and I guess they keep the market...

Upgrading to Blu-Ray

What do you do with the DVDs? I am trying to keep both disks, and have to decide on which packaging to keep. Lots of my DVDs have excellent packaging so I put the Blu-Ray in the main slot and slip...

Re: Game of Thrones (S8E06) -- 79 minute Series Finale -- “The Iron Throne” -- 5/19/19

I did finally rent S8 from Netflix, and I thought it was great. No complaints at all, even the highly criticized too dark scene was okay with me. It was a night scene, yet I could see what was...

Re: Game of Thrones (S8E06) -- 79 minute Series Finale -- “The Iron Throne” -- 5/19/19

I don't have HBO anything, but I am sure the ending is fine. How could the writers, producers, etc. ruin the ending of the best mini series, to date, ever? I am looking forward to this December...

re: Game of Thrones on Ultra HD Blu-ray (S1: 6/5/18; S8: 12/3/19)

Yeah, The Sopranos is a PITA to handle, but since I only watch it once ever 10 years, it is okay. Beats the hell out of just strapping together the individual series in a single box.
