RE: Wharfdale and SVCD`s - help !

Mine`s the 750 (without the "S", the one with the DTS logo on the front (3rd edition I think))
Cheers

RE: Wharfdale and SVCD`s - help !

I also have the same problem (albeit a different SVCD!)
It plays about the first 2 seconds and then pauses itself,
I click play and it only progresses 1 frame,
Anyone know of a way to play SVCD`s on the Wharf??????
Cheers

RE: NTL users and WINDOWS XP

we have our pC`s networked, but use internet connection sharing,
the primary PC has firewall, anti virus ect, so all is fine here,
Firewall blocks any scanning and easily conigured.
Anyway, enjoy, Ratking

RE: NTL users and WINDOWS XP

You don`t even need to go to al that trouble, just use microsoft internet connection sharing, set all network cards IP to OPTAIN IP AUTOMATTICALY, and it`s sorted,
OR just plug the cat 5 cable from the modem into your hub!

RE: NTL users and WINDOWS XP

modem is supplied when the cable modem line is installed, have the modem working on win98, win98se, win2000 win me and winXP, no proplems from any of them. Regards,

RE: NTL users and WINDOWS XP

Hi all,
NTL is sweet, 512k download, 128k upload,
sure, 128 sucks a bit, but hey, how much uploading do most of you do??
Service seems very reliable, did go down for 2 hours the other week, but a quick (yeah right, more like 75 min free call to NTL service line) resolved the problem, it was their server being upgraded,
If it`s down for any length of time (ie. more than a day) (only ever happened once) they will refund some of the monthly cost,
The modem can be bought or loaned, it was £5 per month for loan or £150 to buy, I`ve gone for loan, so I can upgrade if needed, cost per month is £20 flat rate, doesn`t use the phone, so that`s nice and free all the time, just have to have phone and basic tv package from NTL, cost about £10 per month, so about the same as BT for the phone, if you get the option of USB or ethernet modem, I`d say go for ethernet, but you must have a spare network card in your machine. Set-up is quick and easy, Any further questions, let me know, Regards, Ratking

RE: NTL users and WINDOWS XP

I use XP and NTL cable modem, no proplems whatsoever,
we even have it networked so 3 of us share the connection, allowing all of us to be online/play games all at once, and never suffered problems.
Hope this helps,
It`s true that NTL don`t support XP or shared PC`s using one cable modem,
but if you need any help, yell.

RE: JURASSIC PARK DTS OR D.D. R1 OR R2

I have to disagree, I have seen R2 version DTS! yes, but they don`t do it in a box set with JP2, which you can also get R2 DTS,
Just thought you would like to know.

Wish to take Yamaha AV-Reciver & Wharfedale DVD to Canada

Can any one help me please, I have a Yamaha 596RDS amp + NS-P300 speaker set & Wharfedale 350 (it`s the one with DTS), and I wish to take them to Canada with me when I move in about 2 months time. Does anyone know if it`s easy to transform the power supply from 240v down to 110v, or would it be easier to sell it here and buy new stuff there, (don`t want to really as it`s quite new!). Thanks
