    Cheap and decent DIY speaker kit from the UK / SA

    Hi all, OK, I am keen to get cracking on this one. A few questions: 1. Are tri-path amps still available anywhere in SA? 2. Are there any online stores I can browse to look at kit options / driver options?

    Best Sounding Blu-ray Movie

    OK, my 2c. Saving private Ryan - OMG, yes, it's very very good. If you enjoy that, then you MUST get the blu-rays of Band of brothers, it's more of that but in mini- byte size chunks. Awesome! The batman movies, holy crap yes! Very awesome! Master and commander has always been a LFE winner...

    Weird PC issues - no sound / video thru hdmi

    Yep, done that too. Same result. Although, 2 days ago I did another format re-install and its working perfect so far. I havent done any windooze updates yet, but I will see if I do if it bricks it again...

    Weird PC issues - no sound / video thru hdmi

    OK, I tried the nircmd files, It did absolutely nothing. It gives me no error messages when I do it, so now i am confused. I got other things working perfectly with nircmd so i know its not just a user error ;) @Skylark 1. LCD - nope, but I have tried directly into the amp without the LCD...

    Weird PC issues - no sound / video thru hdmi

    Yeah, that IS a weird one. But still, Audio is my biggest gripe for now, I can at least use vga in full HD.

    Weird PC issues - no sound / video thru hdmi

    @Danny boy, thanks! This looks very nifty I will give it a try. My concern is that will it still set the default output even tho it thinks nothings is plugged into the HDMI port? Ie, will it "force" output via that port? As for Malware, I do agree, it is something I was worried about. So I ran...

    Weird PC issues - no sound / video thru hdmi

    Nope, but thats a great idea. It would be weird if that resolved it but what-the-hell. It's certainly worth a try. Last resort I guess would be to format the machine again, do a re-install etc and get it working perfectly, then make a clone / restore point for future.

    Weird PC issues - no sound / video thru hdmi

    No, I dont think that is it as it doesnt work from the mothrboards HDMI port either. However, the amp / TV work perfectly if plugged directly into a laptops HDMI, so it really is an issue specifically for this one PC.

    Weird PC issues - no sound / video thru hdmi

    Oh man, this is weird again! So I get home, whip on the PC and get exactly the same issues as before. No recognition of the HDMI cable being plugged in, also, even with the analogue stereo to RCA jack plugged in, the PC doesnt notice that either nor have it as an option in the sound menu. Any...

    Networking my toys

    There are a few apps you can use. To date I still havent found a DLNA app that gets me all excited, but I know my boss and his wife use BubbleUPnP which is pretty decent. From remote control apps, there are loads! For Xbox there is obviously smartglass (which is very cool from a nerdy...

    Weird PC issues - no sound / video thru hdmi

    Thanks Skylark, I went thru ALL the settings and neither my amp nor my TV directly could get any signal over HDMI, not sound or video, from neither the GFX card or the mobo. Anyway, I have solved it by doing a format and re-install. My XBMC is currently doing a restore now whilst windoooooze is...
