Oct 30th 2008 3:45PM on Engadget HD

Ben, I am fairly certain that tru2way replaces the need for a cable card or set-top box.

...sorry, I meant to mention that yes I have the SA 8300HD DVR.

I am not sure if it is different with Time Warner Cable but I have Bright House Networks for my cable and no hack is needed as it is in the normal settings menu. You just the click settings button on the remote and choose the "More Settings" option. Then you will be able to select the output format from the folloing choice: 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i.

Bright House Networks to add 50 HD channels over next 18 months

Why would Brighthouse want to carry the NFL network in HD when it only carries games during a few months of the year? Wouldn't it be better to use their limited bandwidth to carry a network that has more appeal than just a few months of the year.

Nielsen VideoScan High-Def market share for week ending November 11th, 2007

Ben, is it possible to get some numbers for movies that were released on both formats? I think seeing how the same title sells on both formats would be far more revealing. For example, "300" on blu-ray is number nine on the chart above so I wonder how many copies the HD DVD version sold?

Poll: Where do you stand in the format war?

I probably would support HD DVD since but since I will be buying a PS3 anyway, I want blu-ray to win since then I won't have to buy a separate player.

I have used my PS2 as a DVD player for years and never had the need to purchase a separate DVD player.

GameFly rate increasing by $1 due to mail and game cost

Jun 5th 2007 5:13PM on Joystiq

I had Gamefly a while back and my only complaint was their lack of an east coast distribution center. I didn't like how long it took to ship to FL and back. I think they were adding more distribution centers and maybe they have one on the east coast by now?

Someone explain why this is better than GameZnflix. I just signed up for their 1 game out $8.99 a month plan and its seems to work so far? Also they claim to have distribution centers on the east coast and west coast and elsewhere akthough my first game came from KY when they have a FL distribution center and I am in florida.

Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.

"I am looking for a device that will stream sound from one source to several recipients. For example, I want to stream sound from my TV or stereo to my phone or MP3 player that has radio and Bluetooth capabilities. I have looked into radio transmitters and they seem like a decent choice, but I can't find one that uses external power (USB or from the plug) and I would want one with a transmit range of around 50 meters. Thanks!"
