RE: Aiwa 370 and RCE

Jimbo
when i left it on region 0, on getting the disk i got the infamas region screen, set it to 1 played the disk then set it back to 0 played a few others then without thinking played that one again, and it worked. Same with Hollow man.

RE: Daewoo Will Replace All Faulty DHC2200K DVD Players

With Argos you have up to 12 months to take it back, i took mine back and told them that the picture was poor and got a full refund. You must have the reciept or they will not refund you. Then it was off to get the Aiwa 370 and what a machine it is... Excellent

Max

Aiwa 370 and RCE

Dont know if anyone as posted this before ???? but once you have used a region 1 DVD with RCE and set the region to 1, it works fine ... but after that you can reset to region 0 and the machine remebers and it plays as normal, even after the machine as been switched off and on again. Just another notch in the Aiwa 370s belt.

Max

I apologise if you all knew this already... only ive been off with the flu and missed a few nights reading.

RE: PLEASE READ EVERYONE - I HAVE A CONFESSION OR TWO!

Max Pioneer, LG, aiwa all seem to rock to me !!!!!!!!!!!!

RE: Q: Letterbox - How do I eliminate it?

RE: Starwars on VCD, Where?

I own a video rental shop, and our Video Rep tells me that on god information given that it will be out this March / April 2001.

I have not seen this anywhere on the net and may be a rental only release:( But i will keep you informed
Max

RE: Starwars on VCD, Where?

I also have the Phantom Menace on VCD but not with Subtitles, comes well boxed ( 2 disk)and is an original, though i do agree it`s not that much better than Video. But i do know it`s comming to DVD in March, so you may as well wait.

Max

RE: AWIA 370 or LG 3350e ???

Jimbo
I have tried my StarTrek Original VCD`s on the Lg and it just spits em out, have not got any others ( nor do i intend to get any ) but the same VCD`s play on my Aiwa.
just to add to the question, i like the LG better.

Max

RE: Toshiba SD100E any thoughts ????

I second Carpet Muncher in is comments , as the picture on the tosh is to die for but cant handle the RCE without messing arround with the remote .. and then you cant get the extras. Go for the Aiwa or the LG.

Max

RE: Speakers

I use Warfdale Diamond 7.1 for surround, but they make excellent front speakers to be going on with.

Max

RE: LG3350 & Gladiator disc 2

No probs on either my LG3350 ( LG means Little Gem ) or my Aiwa except that the LG can carry on from where it was stoped last and the Aiwa has not got that function

Max

RE: Patriot R2 will it be RCE encoded?

Why ???? It`s not like it`s going to be bought by loads of Americans ..is it
My cash is on ..Not RCE encoded and less extras than region 1

Max

RE: Bought an Aiwa 370! Now for Toy Story Disc 3...

Just to add to this ... mine also works fine, and i have not had any disk fail me yet.

Max

RE: Where do I buy a LG3350?

RE: Aiwa 370 - Discontinued? An inside view.

Hi SteveK

I have had the Toshiba 28w93d and have nothing but praise for it, worked fine with my DVD players ( i have access to more than one). I only sold it to buy the Toshiba 43inch Back Projection and love it to bits. Go get the Tosh.

Max

RE: Aiwa 370 banding problems

Both me and my mate have This machine and the LG, none showing the fault you have, I think it`s time to go back to the shop.

Max

AIWA 370 ROCKS!!!!!!!

Now look you have got me doing it .... stop it fool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RE: AIWA370

Jimbo can you tell me if you machines do this ..
In the Aiwa, if i put a DVD that is 235:1 with the machines video setting set at 4:3 pan/scan, the film shows in 235:1, but if i do the same on the LG3350 and it shows it in widescreen ????

Max

RE: LG DVD-3350E -

You will be sorry not going for the LG or Aiwa, that is if you are after good qual pictures and sound.... on the other hand if you just want Macro off then anything will do, cos i aint found any player worth having with the macro off. I use the Letropacks Macro disabler and that way i can choose from any DVD machine i want. and it works video to video and Sky Movies and Ondigital etc etc

Max

RE: T2:Ultimate Edition problems

Just to add .. i have tried this on both the LG and the Aiwa and the " PLAY EXTENDED SPECIAL EDITION " works fine using the code.

You must be in the right place though " SPECIAL EDITION " before keying in the code
