RE: technosonic from woolies £399.00

Hi, saw this in my local Woolies last week and must admit for the price the picture is excellent, almost worth buying as a second set at this price, looks great in the black.
I would think you would need a larger type adjustable wall bracket for this set due to the weight.

RE: Sony Hacks

Hi,
Sorry not so easy this one, i will look into it for you.

RE: Sony RDR-GX300 DVD-R Region Hack PLEEEEEEEEEEEASE!

The only way to make this machine multi region is to use a coded remote control, there are various companies around that will `hire` you one but all seem quite expensive £25+. I do have one, if you need to borrow it please email me.
Andy :)

RE: Sony Hacks

As you say this disc is only suitable for these models, the ones that aren`t actually made by Sony, just have their badge on.The GX200 needs the remote control hack to make it work (this requires a spacial coded control) If you heed to borrow control let me know and i can post to you.

RE: Sony Hacks

Email me and i`ll sort one out

RE: Sony Hacks

Hi all, if anybody needs a copy of this disc can you email me (click on my user name, then the postbox) and i will sort it out, this disc is just for the RDRGX210 to make it multiregion, i haven`t been able to try it on any other Sony machines yet.

RE: Sony Hacks

Hi,
Sony never make it easy. For most players and some recorders it has to be done with a special remote control, the newer recorders ie GX200 can be done with a disc (which i have done with mine if anybodys interested) Let me know if you need to borrow my control or upgrade disc.

RE: Very old telly

Hi, the only way if there is no av input on the telly at all is to buy a Modulator unit from Maplins code VH89W £29.99 or maybe cheaper elsewhere and it will convert the signal so you can plug it in to your normal aerial socket.

RE: LG RC1000 VCR and DVD Recorder Combi Problems

Please check with your retailer and they will confirm this, there is no rf out signal from this unit. I`ve just looked in the manual and on page 15 it says you must have it connected to your tv by one of the methods stated, the aerial lead is not one of them. (it is only required so you can watch your terrestrial channels with the recorder connected)

RE: LG RC1000 VCR and DVD Recorder Combi Problems

Hi, unfortunately as is common with a lot of dvd recorders there is no rf out signal on this model. The rf out aerial socket is purely a loop through to feed the aerial signal back to the tv. A real pain if you want to send the signal around the house. You could get round it by using a video sender or connecting it to a video via the scart that has got an rf out signal. ( i have to instal these things for a living !)

RE: Laptop connected to mobile phone via Bluetooth

Thanks for the replies, i had thought of a carrier pigeon put sounds a bit hi-tech.

Laptop connected to mobile phone via Bluetooth

Hi
Got a Sony S700i and a Sony laptop VGN-A317M. Currently using bluetooth to dial-up the internet, anybody use or know any better (or cheaper) way to get faster reliable net access.
Thanks

RE: free budget headset

Just got my order is dispatched and an ANC tracking link in an email from BT. Heres hoping. Thanks to OP :)

RE: Sony Hack Wanted

Most Sony`s need a special remote code to unlock them (including the NS305).If you search for NS355 on this forum you could follow the instructions there (same process as this machine).
The process involves buying a one 4 all remote and programming it with some codes to transmit to the dvd player. If you don`t want to go to this hassle let me know and you can borrow mine. :)

RE: Sony RDR-GX300 to be replaced by RDR-GX210

Yes this is correct, i work for a Sony dealer and rep told us about it last week, the 300 will be discontinued.

RE: Anyone use Homecall?

Don`t use them for broadband just for my home phone calls. Owned by phones 4 U i believe, or that`s where i signed up for them. They changed me over from BT with no problems, clear bills, cheaper calls and free calls to anybody else using Homecall :)
Hope this helps.

RE: 4 Room Booster with Surge and IR - £8.99

Hi,
Unfortunately the dvd recorder does not provide an RF output of it`s own, it`s only a loop through for the aerial signal.It has to be connected by composite video (ie scart lead) to a tv.

RE: Question on the Epson R300 printer...

Hi, i have an R300 and as soon as you switch it on you see extra drive in My Computer on windows Xp. I use mine as normal card reader to transfer pics from my memory stick. Hope this helps. :)

RE: LG DVD 2000

You will need a software disc, let me know and i can supply you one.

RE: LG DV1000 Multi Region Hacks

Hi,
Yes i would definately recommend this machine for the price it is excellent value for money and plays most discs.
To make region free please go to http://www.area450.co.uk/lg5083hack.htm and follow instructions to the word.(The DV1000 uses the same deck as this machine).It will work.This is how i did mine.When burning the file to disc do so at a slow speed.(i don`t know why this makes a difference but it worked for me!)
I`ve done 5 other machines with the same disc and all is well.
It even plays rce discs.
If anybody has problems or doesn`t have a cd burner and wants a copy of this disc just email me renlim.ydna[at]moc.dlrowltn and for a small fee i will send you one.
If anybody is interested the company i work for can supply these multiregioned machines at a good price.
