General Discussion Area / rather DVD Players

« on: 12 May 2012, 09:57:30 »

My againg (but excellent) Pioneer DV464 has packed up, and seems to be beyond repair.

So its new DVD player time....easy, or so I thought....

Requirements..

Decent DVD player, MUST have Scart, be multiregion (out the box, or hackable) and preferably have multi disk resume, so you can swap disks part way through films and carry on where you left off effortlessly.
Not much to ask I thought....the 10 year old one did that perfectly.

Load of research, and a Sony DVPSR150 seemed to fit the bill....
Buy one, bad lip sync issues.
so thats going back.
(plus was assured the damaged box came in like that, and was perfect inside....wrong, clearly 2nd hand, so a big argument at comet coming up this morning!)


Really struggling to find a decent player, most only have HDMI now, with only the dregs having a scart.
Ideal option is replace the TV too, but dont want to pay out for that right now.

grrrrrr

General Car Chat / Thanks for the guides....

« on: 04 May 2012, 11:25:38 »

Thanks to geoffr70 for a new guide on replacing your hand brake cable...
http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/index.php?topic=102410.0



There are a fair few guides in the test zone (which Ive just tidied up) that look to be works in progress, but virtually finished.
Can the owners (Chrisgixxer, Taxi Al, Tidla) of these copy and paste them into a new thread in test, and make any amendments / tidyups and let me know and I will move them over.

Thanks very much as always.

BT will roughly double the speed of your infinity..if you renew your contract....or you get the new faster speeds automatically when signing up now.  No extra cost, just faster speeds...not that they are 'really' needed

Details here :

basically login to bt online and follow the infinity speed increase links

General Discussion Area / Cashbackkings

« on: 07 April 2012, 16:59:13 »

I know we had a few members here that used cashbackkings before they went bust.

At that point I had about £50 I could have taken....but didnt.

I filled out the form for the recovery agents (a year or so ago)....and have used received a 1st interim payment of £15

not a lot I know...but its more than I expected, and just for starters by the sounds of the paperwork.

Anyone else here claim for losses with them?

General Discussion Area / New front door time...

« on: 20 March 2012, 20:00:10 »

UPVC -v- Composite......Discuss 

Our old wooden door is knackered, along with 2 old wood windows, and needs replacing.

Composite is coming in about £250 more than UPVC, and seems to offer a nicer look (and colour range), and heavier weight.

Any good reasons to go for one over the other?  Dont know a lot about them.
