RE: 5.1 conversion

Cheers for the feedback on that
to be honest the DTS is not major issue for me yet and i had honestly a need to replace the mico as it was starting to skip a bit.

i ended up getting a pioneer dv-575a with the phono outs on the back

And to be fair the sound honestly kicks and the picture is awesome.

So it`s 75% successful at this point.

cheers

RE: 5.1 conversion

No Coax it`s purely phono connectors

RE: 5.1 conversion

Thanks and i see your point however if you look at the cyberhome dvd 500 region 1 player it has the decoder built in and the 6 phono outputs on the back.

I need that kind of solution ideally.

Any ideas where one can obtain such a machine?

5.1 conversion

Please help.
In a bid to keep thing simple i purchased one of these all in one sub powered speaker set ups.
However when it comes to connection it shows six audio outs coming from the source player into the sub???

I have a Panasonic dmr-e50 and a Mico Clasica both of which don`t offer this amount of outputs.

Is there an adapter of some sort that will give me six audio channels as phono`s?

Or is there a DVD player that actually has these outputs on the back??

I am baffled as the wiring diagram assumes your dvd has these outputs?

Transferring vhs (pre-recorded to dvd using Panasonic dmr-e50

I have just purchased a Panasonic DVD recorder with the intention of converting my mountain of vhs tapes to dvd, but it seems that it isn`t straight forward.

As soon as i press record i get the message that recording of this material is not permitted.

How can i can i get round this (Lecktropacks have mentioned a converter box for £200 quid but is there a cheaper option?
