Amen! Not only is overscan a problem, but the UI is also zoomed in addition to the overscan. So there are actually 2 problems preventing pixel-perfect output, not one.

Quote: Configuring the display is still a mess. Things don't act as you'd want, it's a mystery to figure out what Microsoft's idea of a monitor or built-in display is, etc. All we want to do is to be able to turn off overscan for goodness' sake.

Would like to have one of these for my LCD!

Nice feature additions. If they would offer software that runs on a Windows Home Server (so I don't have to keep my laptops running all the time), my wish list would be complete.

Don't get me wrong, I'm excited about this free player, but price aside, it doesn't offer anything my current combination of AnyDVD HD + TotalMedia Theatre does.

AnyDVD HD already allows you to disable BDJ and skip directly to the main Blu-ray menu. It removes Prohibited User Options so you can skip warning messages. TotalMedia Theatre already allows PCM output over cheap soundcards (the integrated audio in nVidia and Intel motherboards, among others.) If Slyplayer were to offer bitstreaming for these soundcards, then that would be something new, but bistreaming doesn't offer much advantage over PCM.

Mac support is something a lot of people have been wanting. Hopefully a Mac version of AnyDVD HD is on the way, because it appears Slyplayer basically incorporates all of the AnyDVD HD features internally or will require you to purchase AnyDVD HD.

By the way, I won't consider Slysoft to be a "user-friendly" company until they make AnyDVD automatically update itself, instead of requiring users to remote desktop into all of their HTPCs and install updates twice a week. Users are requesting it, but Slysoft isn't listening: http://forum.slysoft.com/showthread.php?t=30286

From the podcast: You think a Blu-ray drive costs $300?

NewEgg has multiple Blu-ray readers for less than $100, making the AspireRevo an awesome HTPC option.

My one wish is for multi-DVR integration into one seamless experience:

- Coordinate recording between multiple DVR tuners.
- Consolidate recorded program listings so all recording on all DVRs can optionally be viewed in one list.
- Stream recordings between DVRs instead of having to copy the entire file.
- Release a no-fee tuner-less extender.
- Have a single season pass list for all DVRs
- Allow recording on remote DVRs to be deleted by other DVR (or make the experience so seemless that you don't even know you're watching from another DVR.)

For more content flexibility:
- Allow browsing and streaming of videos stored on network computers (no copy to TiVo hard drive required) and support as many codecs as possible.
- Add support for Play-On (like with PS3 and Xbox) to watch content such as Hulu.

The DTVpal DVR is a horrible product and is overpriced at $250. The guide data is terrible and the thing barely runs. At this point in time, a Series 1 TiVo is a much better investment despite the lack of HD support.

TiVo could add new IR commands (and IP commands for iPhone apps) that would allow QWERTY input with existing universal remotes and PC applications. This is very trivial to do and could be rolled-out to every TiVo in existence. They wouldn't have to spend R&D developing new remote control hardware, just release the codes and let the remote control developers and iPhone app developers to go town. We'd have working solutions within weeks of TiVo publishing the codes.

One of the current iPhone apps (Series 3 and TiVo HD only) does mimic qwerty input, but it is not an elegant solution. It uses a bunch of macros to move the cursor around the "Ouija board" alphabet input screen, and you have to start with the selector on the correct letter for it to work. It's the best solution to date, but would be much nicer if TiVo actually released codes to allow direct alpha text entry in any screen.

The 9400m means it should be able to play 1080p Blu-ray!

It would be nice if this case was rack-mountable. I thought there were rack ear screws on the side of the front of the case, but the product page doesn't mention it.
