The DIRECTV Plus High Definition DVR – Year Two

After a jam packed year, the DIRECTV Plus High Definition DVR has become the flagship receiver for a company that has become one of the leaders in high-definition programming. The enthusiast community is stronger than ever, fusing innovation and collaboration in ways that have never been done before. Sit back while we reflect on the things that have made this trip something to remember.
Joining the HR20-700 and the HR20-100 this year are the HR21-100, HR21-200, and HR21-700, as well as the new HR22-100 with 100 hours of recording capability. The new HR21 models sport a sleek black exterior and function in much the same way as the HR20 models. While the HR21 series lacks the HR20's built-in ATSC tuner, DIRECTV moved aggressively to cover the nation with local HD channels, and provided the AM21 antenna module for those still awaiting satellite coverage. Professional users also welcomed the HR21-Pro.
The DIRECTV Plus HD DVR also added another member of the family in its second year: the R22 Standard Definition DVR, designed for markets where standard-definition local channels were encoded in the superior MPEG-4 format. The R22 DVR has all the features of its HD brethren, except of course true HD. However, it can output EDTV (480p) through component or HDMI, and can use all the other advanced functions of the Plus HD DVR, including media sharing and On Demand. By using the more mature software and hardware of the HR21 series, the R22 was able to hit the streets quickly in response to expansion into new markets.

Consumer Electronics Show

The 2008 Consumer Electronics show in Las Vegas brought more news of the DIRECTV Plus HD DVR product line. DIRECTV hosted its own enclosed "experience" room, along with silver-coated satellite dishes, nearly 100 large flat screen TVs, and a simulated "install experience" covered through a window crafted to look like a TV screen. Of course, this was all icing on the cake for the news of their changes to the Plus HD DVR series.
The AM21 off-air tuner was revealed, and with the AM21 there was truly no difference in capabilities between any member of the Plus HD DVR line. A short few months later, the AM21 became available to the public.
DIRECTV also showed the Samsung-built HR21Pro. Designed for rack mounting with a larger hard drive and more ventilation, the HR21Pro was designed with installers in mind and allowed for Optical HDMI (OWLink was on site with a solution) and serial IR control. The HR21Pro became available to the public shortly after the close of the Consumer Electronics Show.
Lastly, they showed a beta of DIRECTV2PC, which will allow PC-based playback of DIRECTV Plus HD DVR content and is in limited testing among the enthusiast community.

The Beat Goes On

There were 10 national software releases for the DIRECTV Plus HD DVR in its second year, all delivered via satellite, and included everything from new features to bug fixes. This number was fewer than half of the 23 updates required in the HR20's first year.
DIRECTV also began utilizing the enthusiast community at a much more frequent rate as the Cutting Edge (CE) program (at DBSTalk.com) became the go-to place each week for enthusiasts to contribute to DIRECTV's success. Never before had real customers become so visible. The collaboration between DIRECTV and its customers enabled average people to download pre-release firmware and kick the tires before the firmware reaches the general public. In this way, new features or changes can be eased into the software rather than making one big monster change that would otherwise be pushed to all DIRECTV Plus HD DVR customers at the same time. Cutting Edgers, or "CE'ers" as we call ourselves, test new features and check national release candidates, helping DIRECTV to bring the best product to its millions of subscribers.
The CE program has grown up over that past year as well. The process has become a nearly weekly event involving the distribution of information, the collection of data and a visit to the Chat Room each time new software is available for the DIRECTV Plus HD DVR. Each week, there are Chat Room regulars that help point new folks in the right direction. While this process has more or less grown as a grass roots effort, it has proven to be an effective means of getting to the goal of a perfect receiver.
The CE collaboration made a quantum leap when DIRECTV gave testers the ability to send detailed logs and information over their network line. This gave their engineers information to more quickly identify problems and, as a result, more quickly provide a solution. The network issue reporting system is completely "opt-in" and does not interfere with the regular user's experience. No other system like this has ever been implemented on a set-top box, and is to us clear evidence of DIRECTV's commitment to the Cutting Edge program.
Some of the notable features added to the DIRECTV Plus HD DVR this year are:
  • Added Resume/Start Over options for playback of recordings
  • Added Delete button to My Playlist and To Do List
  • DIRECTV on Demand
  • Hide SD channels if duplicate HD channel exists
  • Triple Tap Lookup for DIRECTV on Demand
  • 30 Second Skip
  • MediaShare
  • Boolean Search
  • Shortcut for Closed Caption On/Off
  • Pass-through (Original Format) Option
  • GameSearch
  • Triple Tap for Search
  • Network Issue Reporting

Simply the Best

One of the most exciting features to come to the DIRECTV Plus HD DVR in the second year isn't even built into the box. The addition of new high-definition channels has brought new meaning to having high-definition television. In September, 2007, DIRECTV moved its new satellite (DIRECTV10) into position and lit up 30 new HD channels overnight including SciFi, CNN, and The History Channel. With that one change, the DIRECTV Plus HD DVR all of a sudden became the receiver of choice. In addition, HD local channels are now available in over 115 different markets available. This encompasses over 85% of all US households. With another satellite (DIRECTV11) now online and yet another satellite (DIRECTV12) going up this year, DIRECTV is positioned to provide 200 national HD channels when it's all said and done. The DIRECTV Plus HD DVR will provide access to current and future high-definition content.
Another highly anticipated feature added in the past year is DIRECTV on Demand. By simply connecting the DIRECTV Plus HD DVR to a high-speed home network connection, users can download movies with the push of a button. The programs available include television shows, documentaries, music videos and much more. Recently, DIRECTV began charging for some of the content, but much of it is free and all of it is available to 24 hours a day.

Catering to the Enthusiast

In a nod to power users, DIRECTV implemented three incredibly powerful search improvements in the DVR's second year:
  • For sports fans, GameSearch will automatically seek out rebroadcasts of games that are blacked out on a particular channel. This feature is automatic and is proving to be a real crowd-pleaser.
  • Triple Tap, a suggestion from the HR20/HR21 Wish List, allows users to bypass the "grid" system for choosing letters and numbers, and lets them instead use their remote controls as they would use cell phone keypads. Pushing "2" once for "A" and twice for "B" has been a major improvement to the search experience for advanced users.
  • The most powerful search option available, Boolean Search, lets users create complex search using Boolean operators (AALL, NNOT, AANY) and limitations on content (TTITLE, NNAME, CCHAN) for the ultimate in flexibility. For example, it's now possible to pick only "Law and Order" episodes on USA that feature Chris Noth with a single query.
The original format option was added, allowing the purest possible viewing experience for the user by sending picture and sound directly to the television and AV receiver with no postprocessing. DIRECTV's HD DVR is unique in the Satellite industry as the only receiver to offer this option.

User Experience Improvements: DIRECTV reaches out

This past year also saw sweeping improvements to the user interface. DBSTalk users had debated since the introduction of the first non-TiVo DVR as to which user interface was better. Through a series of guided discussions, DIRECTV engineers embarked on a complete revamp of the user interface. The Menu button now brought up the same options regardless of where it was used, and the Yellow button, formerly used in an inconsistent way, now brought up context-sensitive options for every screen. Among these was a welcome improvement: a way to turn closed captioning on or off in three pushes instead of nineteen. While access to the to do list now took 5 pushes instead of two, the improvements to other options eclipsed this for many users.
Updated splash screens gave users a better experience during reboots with fully-rendered logos. This minor change, aimed at pleasing CE'ers, sometimes preceded messages telling regular users what had changed.
Throughout the second year of the DIRECTV Plus HD DVR, DBSTalk members tested new technologies and new software. One of the most interesting was the Media Share PC software which allowed PCs to stream programs from HD DVRs, with all the same controls as the user would have at the television. Unlike other products that simply capture the output from the TV and re-encode it, Media Share PC is DIRECTV's first step toward true multi-room viewing. The programming on the PC can be completely different from what the user on the TV sees, and is transferred to the PC at full resolution, making this the first HD multi-room viewing solution from a major provider.
While the requirements for the client PC are steep by 2008 standards, advances in technology will bring this solution closer to mass availability quickly. For now, most PCs capable of playing Blu-ray discs should be able to share media. Using industry-standard security measures, users cannot save streamed content or move it out of the local network, ensuring that DIRECTV can honor its agreements with content providers.

Until Next Time

The enthusiast community at DBSTalk.com has become an everyday part of the improvements to the DIRECTV Plus HD DVR. The CE program, started by Earl Bonovich, has proven that customers and corporations can work together to make a product even better. A number of exciting features have been added in the past year with even more exciting features in the works for the next year. The addition of significant HD content in the past year will be followed by the addition of even more HD content in the coming year, and the DIRECTV Plus HD DVR series will be the receiver that will make it all available.
It has been our pleasure to be part of the enthusiast community and part of the improvement process. Year three promises to be the best yet!

Westinghouse TX-52F480S

The Westinghouse Digital TX-52F480S attractively displays images and has a few nice touches, but it doesn’t match the better TVs in its price range.

The Westinghouse Digital TX-52F480S ($2550, as of November 4, 2008) is the second-most-expensive HDTV in its size category. Though it costs only $50 more than the Samsung PN50A760, this set falls short of the Samsung on image quality and features


Test Center evaluations, the Digital TX-52F480S denticulate adequately able-bodied admitting getting the alone 50- to 52-inch LCD HDTV we activated that didn't bear a 120-Hz brace rate, this archetypal denticulate additional in our achievement tests, outscoring such 120-Hz models as the LG Electronics 52LG70 and the Sharp LC-52D85U (Samsung's PN50A760, however, accomplished advanced of it by a ample margin.) The Westinghouse provided bland motion in our NASCAR analysis clip, area the advantages of a 120-Hz HDTV were a lot of acceptable to be discernible.
Our console of board begin added issues with the angel quality, though: Nearly every adjudicator acclaimed the reddish, sunburned cast the TV gave Caucasian derma tones; several board empiric pixelation and fuzziness. And the TX-52F480S bootless our HD HQV Benchmark Jaggies test.
In my hands-on use, this model's audio was wretched. At 61 percent of abounding aggregate (full aggregate was too loud for my health), the congenital speakers lacked activating range: The cine soundtrack I acclimated in testing articulate flat, muddy, and strained. Even at 40 percent of abounding volume, the aural ache was distracting. Anyone who buys this set should assets the centralized speakers for account and TV shows, and use a abstracted complete arrangement if watching movies and concerts.
The Digital TX-52F480S's limited ascendancy is middling. Westinghouse put the arrow buttons abreast the bottom, area they're difficult to reach, and the frequently acclimated Mute and Input buttons are tiny and agonizingly situated. In addition, the limited lacks backlighting and can't be programmed. On a absolute note, the limited has a Closed Caption button.
A bigger additional is the set's Autosource feature: Turn on a DVD amateur or added A/V antecedent that's affiliated to the television, and Autosource automatically switches to it.
Overall, the Westinghouse TX-52F480S is a appealing acceptable TV. But added models action added appearance for beneath money

LG Electronics 42LG60

This 42-inch HDTV's advanced features, impressive style, and very good image quality come at a cost.

Lots of thought has gone into LG Electronics' chic 42-inch "Scarlet" 42LG60 HDTV, as evidenced by everything from the faux-leather remote control to the useful and brilliantly navigable on-screen display menu. But the niceties come at a price: At $1800 (as of November 4, 2008), the 42LG60 costs $700 more than one of its two younger 42-inch siblings, the 42PG25, but $200 less than the other, the 42LGX.

The absolute aback of the LCD console is red, which produces red accents if you attending at the TV from an angle; the blush serves little purpose, though, because humans rarely absorb abundant time gazing at the aback of their big-screen TVs. The bezel is attenuate on the top and sides, but about three times thicker at the bottom, area LG hides the unit's superior-sounding, down-firing speakers. As nice as it is not to see apostle grilles, the extra-large basal bezel was confusing and unattractive, abnormally back aggregate abroad about the affectation looks stunning.
A amount of avant-garde appearance appear standard. Individual six-color controls are simple to acquisition in the Expert Control akin of the account menu. And with a individual bang of the remote, you can locate and acclimatize abounding accurately calibrated presets, from Sports approach to Movie mode.
Most sensors just admeasurement the accuracy of ambient ablaze in the room. But LG's Intelligent Sensor ambience uses a circuitous set of algorithms to admeasurement not just accuracy but aswell contrast, color, sharpness, and white balance. The affection formed able-bodied a lot of of the time, admitting on one break it briefly broken some images while ceaselessly aggravating to acclimatize the settings to bout its afflicted surroundings.
The set becoming a achievement account of Acceptable in our PC World Test Center lab tests--the aforementioned appraisement that the Westinghouse TX-42F430S, which costs about $600 less, received. Still, affair the Scarlet's college amount nets you acceptable angel quality, abundant card options, and added ports such as USB (which you can use to play music or appearance photos from any USB drive.)
Should you be advantageous abundant to add an LG Scarlet to your active room, you won't be disappointed.

Sharp LC-52D85U

The Sharp LC-52D85U offers good images but fewer features than some competing TVs.

Design is not the Sharp's LC-52D85U ($2300, as of November 4, 2008) strong point. The on-screen menus, the remote, and even the manual could have used a once-over to make them more friendly. But this model does well on the most important criterion, image quality.
Test Center evaluations of performance, it angry with the LG 52LG70 for third abode all-embracing in this admeasurement category. Our board tended to accord it Good or Very Good ratings on a lot of measures, and one juror accurately accepted the set's accuracy in assuming details. Even so, our board detected some shortcomings: One acclaimed arresting artifacting, and addition complained that in a 480p DVD of The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King arena (chapter 12), colors looked done out. I noticed pixelation and begin abounding scenes badly bright. And admitting this set has a 120-Hz brace rate, we saw no affirmation that the faster brace helped bland out motion in our NASCAR clip.
The Sharp delivers adequate sound, but there was no absolute abyss to its bogus beleaguer sound, and no action to an agency blast. Loud sounds suffered from slight harshness.
Unfortunately, architecture deficiencies accomplish Sharp's limited and its airheaded difficult to use. The limited is brindle with tiny, difficult-to-press buttons. Admitting it has a backlight, this affection doesn't accommodate abundant advice in the dark. Press the Ablaze button (which glows absolutely nicely), and alone the continued Volume and Channel buttons, additional four others, ablaze up. Since the labels aren't illuminated, it's cryptic which button is which.
Other interface issues abound. Click the Ascribe button, and you get a account of all accessible inputs, whether you accept any accouterments affiliated to them or not; worse, the inputs are blue-blooded ‘Input 1', ‘Input 2', etc., after any adumbration of which is an AV ascribe and which is an HDMI (at atomic you can rename the inputs). The chiral has a busy, airedale layout, and the absence of an basis makes award bare advice disproportionately difficult.
Furthermore, the Sharp LC-52D85U doesn't abutment picture-in-picture or any multimedia capabilities via USB, SD Card, or ethernet.
At $2300, this archetypal provides the best account for its amount a part of the 50- and 52-inch sets. It's not the easiest television to use, and it lacks some features, but maybe those appearance aren't account the added $200 you'd accept to pay for the Samsung PN50A760 (which has them). On the added hand, buyers on a account may be absorbed abroad by the LG Electronics 50PG30, a 50-inch plasma-screen HDTV that costs about $600 beneath than the Sharp.

LG Electronics 52LG70

The LG 52LG70 is a no-frills LCD HDTV that produces good-looking images

It bears a family resemblance to its plasma sibling, the 52PG30, but the LG Electronics 52LG70 LCD HDTV is clearly the more advanced mode


Whereas the 52PG30's capital card starts with six icons, the 52LG70 adds two more, Ascribe and USB. And clashing with the 52PG30, you can bung a beam drive into the 52LG70 to appearance photos and accept to MP3s.
This archetypal packs four HDMI ports (one added than the 52PG30) and two optical audio outputs into its 52-inch frame. But it lacks a picture-in-picture mode.
Setup is simple: Well-placed connectors and a bureaucracy astrologer that asks whether the set needs home or abundance enhancement advice things along. And the well-designed, analytic on-screen airheaded abridge day-to-day.
When you columnist the remote's Ascribe button to change from your cable ascribe to your DVD amateur (for example), the TV displays icons for all of your inputs; the inputs that are angry on are accent and aggregate calm at the front. Want to acclimatize the aspect arrangement or the TV's backlighting? Columnist the Q (for Quick) Card button for burning admission to these accepted options. Those buttons--and others on the long, attenuate remote--are of adequate admeasurement and are well-placed for the user's thumb. Though the limited lacks backlighting, it (unlike the LG 50PG30's remote) can be programmed for use with added devices.
Our PC World Test Center board rated this model's angel superior as average. I saw several faces with the aberrant blush and arrangement of an oil painting rather than animal flesh. All of the board noticed pixelation and added artifacts in assorted tests, abnormally during fast activity and dissolves. Some images in our tests seemed a bit soft, too, but in accepted we begin the angel superior pleasing.
The 52LG70 is a actual adequate HDTV at an adequate price. But a bigger TV in the aforementioned admeasurement class (the Samsung PN50A760) is accessible at the aforementioned price, and you can acquisition appealing adequate sets (like the Sharp LC-52D85U) that are beneath expensive.

LG Electronics 50PG30

Though inexpensive for its screen size, the LG 50PG30 plasma HDTV lacks features and image punch.

The LG 50PG30 is an inexpensive plasma HDTV ($1700, as of November 4, 2008) with stylish looks. Its design and its range of inputs (including three HDMI ports) will attract attention, but this model's image quality is only average.


In PC World Test Center tests, our board had a advanced ambit of reactions to the set. It looked absolutely acceptable if beheld at an angle--as you'd apprehend from a claret TV. And I anticipation the 50PG30 did a actual acceptable job with beginning and accomplishments detail (especially the latter) on our David Letterman account clip. My atomic acceptable 50PG30-viewing acquaintance was in the NASCAR clip, area I empiric some motion becloud and fuzziness. Added judges' appraisals were beneath upbeat. One faulted facial tones; addition said that images appeared flat, with colors that didn't pop.
The 50PG30 is simple to set up--with calmly placed inputs and a bureaucracy astrologer that asks whether to optimize for home use or abundance use. Six ample icons anatomy the body of the on-screen menu; I begin the airheaded to be logically organized--and because they were hardly transparent, they didn't block too abundant of the picture.
The Quick Menu offers even easier admission to accepted options such as the set's account and complete modes. And the selections that pop up (as icons forth the basal of the screen) if you columnist the ascribe button accord top antecedence to sources that are currently sending a arresting to the TV--a acceptable touch.
But the 50PG30 lacks a amount of added features. It has no picture-in-picture, and no USB or SD Card multimedia capabilities. The minimalist limited doesn't afterglow in the dark, isn't programmable; and can ascendancy alone VCR or DVD players that abutment LG's SimpLink (HDMI CEC) interface.
The 50PG30 accomplished additional a allotment of our 50- and 52-inch sets in our all-embracing rankings, acknowledgment in ample allotment to its aggressively low amount (the Hitachi P50X902, for archetype costs about alert as much, at $3200), but it can't blow the above architecture and top-of-line angel above of our amount one large-screen set, the Samsung PN50A760. LG's added aspirant in this category, the 52LG70, is above to the 50PG30 in about every way--but it costs $800 more.

Top 5 50- and 52-Inch HDTVs Samsung PN50A760

Samsung PN50A760

             Samsung's PN50A760 ($2500, as of November 4, 2008) combines air-conditioned multimedia capabilities and abundant angel quality. In our lab tests, this claret HDTV ashamed the competition. It is the alone archetypal in its admeasurement class to acquire a appraisement of Very Good for angel quality.

One juror noted some pixelation in several of the tests, but even so she declared this Samsung the "best out of all tested," and noted that some images looked crisp and sharp. Another juror commended the set's excellent color balance. I admired its handling of fast motion in our NASCAR test. It had a notably wide viewing angle, too.
In my hands-on tests, the PN50A760 provided excellent virtual surround sound, close to what you'd experience with a dedicated speaker system. A movie soundtrack's sudden organ blast had a powerful, in-the-gut heft.
The PN50A760 is as well designed as the 46-inch Samsung LN46A650 is. Back connectors face out and are easy to reach from the side of the unit. A setup wizard helps you optimize the set for home use in your home (as opposed to in a store). The TV's menus are thoroughly readable, and the Input menu gives priority to attached devices that are actually turned on, so you don't have to scroll past a bunch of irrelevant options to select the device you want to use.
The PN50A760 has a host of slick multimedia capabilities, too. Press the remote's Content button to get a full screen of options, including scenic photos, recipes, exercises, and children's activities--all built into the TV's flash memory (and not updatable). You can plug a USB drive into the side-mounted USB port to view your own photos or to play audio files. Or you can plug an ethernet cable into the PN50A760 and view media from a PC set up as a DLNA server (the TV comes with appropriate software for this).
The remote is almost identical to the excellent one that comes with the Samsung LN46A650. Backlighting makes it easy to use in the dark; it is programmable; and it has a convenient jog wheel in place of the usual arrows. Regrettably, Samsung neglected to provide a picture-in-picture button, despite the TV's picture-in-picture feature.
Whereas the PN50A760's remote lacks an aspect ratio button (called P.Size on the LN46A650 remote), however, this model offers the aforementioned Content button. You can still adjust the aspect ratio from the Tools menu; it's just not as easy to access.
At $2500, the Samsung PN50A760 is pricey, albeit no more expensive than two less impressive 52-inch models--the LG Electronics 52LG70 and the Westinghouse Digital TX-52F480S. And with the Samsung, you get what you pay for in image quality and extra features.



vizio Vizio VO42LF

Competing HDTVs rarely beat Vizio models on price. A case in point is the Vizio VO42LF, a model we first reviewed back in July that remains a well-rounded package at a low price. At $1100 (as of November 4, 2008), this model has the same price as the newer Vizio SV420XVT. But it lags behind its cousin slightly in performance and specs


Our board anticipation that the VO42LF offered a natural-looking picture, admitting some images looked down-covered to our panelists. In one instance, artifacts and pixelation appeared about a analysis blow of affective cars. And in a David Letterman clip, beef tones looked a bit too saturated.
Good video deserves acceptable audio, and the VO42LF provides it, aural the limitations of any HDTV's congenital speakers. The complete was absolutely addled at abounding volume, but even the a lot of adherent heavy-metal fan won't be tempted to use that setting. At a added reasonable 50 percent volume, audio was still a bit muddy, but bigger than the complete of a lot of TVs.
The VO42LF disappoints in affluence of use and added features, admitting Vizio shows some advance in both respects over accomplished models. For instance, the aggregation has added some easy-access inputs to the ancillary of the TV. But those connectors are recessed, authoritative them harder to ability than added TVs' easy-access inputs. And the blow of the inputs face down, unnecessarily arrest access.
The limited ascendancy looks like a applicant for an Apple Computer Minimalist Design Award. It's smallish, with few buttons and a strange, pits-in-a-grid surface. But its attempted breach doesn't accomplish it acceptable or automatic to use. For instance, it has no Agenda button; so you accept to columnist the Enter button (which is labeled neither 'Enter' nor 'Menu') to admission the menu. And back the limited doesn't accept an Aspect Ratio button or a Account Size button, you have to go abysmal into the airheaded to zoom in on a 4:3 program.
You can't apprehend accomplishment in an HDTV at this amount (hundreds of dollars beneath than the Toshiba 42XV545U and the LG 42LG60 Scarlet), however. What you see is what you get, and the Vizio VO42LF shows you affluence after banishment you to max out your acclaim card.

Casual Friday: High-Tech Travel Tips

Plenty of belief accommodate admonition for aristocratic adaptable professionals. But what about you, the bootless traveler? Maybe you're on vacation. Maybe you're aggravating to arctic out afore a day's account of biking and business meetings. Point is, you charge to backpack a little smarter to absorb yourself, and that's what this week's cavalcade is all about. I accept some abundant roadworthy amateur and a few agency to watch video--and, yeah, I'll even bandy in some helpful, applied tips.
The Impractical Tips
Video
Sometimes you artlessly wish to sit aback and relax--y'know, just watch a video on whatever adaptable accessory you accept handy. We acclimated to accept to jump through assorted hoops to do that; for instance, I'd run DirectShow Dump to band out any DRM nonsense and again use 3GP Converter to transcode the video into altered formats. These days, we accept it easy. For some humans that agency watching appearance clips on corpuscle phones. Added association download Tivo agreeable to a PSP or iPod. Me? I almanac shows on my Media Center PC and alteration the recordings at the blow of a button.
Gemini DivisionLet's not overlook about the accomplished Webcast revolution. PC Apple Senior Editor Melissa J. Perenson put calm a great, absolute affection searching at TV on the Web. Below, I acknowledgment a few specific things that are account watching, but here's one big disclaimer: Many of the shows are region-locked. For example, as I address this, Hulu works alone in the United States. My affliction to anyone in added countries.
Stephen King's N: Part of a massive multimedia accomplishment to advance Stephen King's next book, Just After Sunset, N is a horrifically beautiful-looking Web miniseries.
Crawford: This indie documentary, which looks at the boondocks that George W. Bush confused into, afresh premiered alone on Hulu.com.
Sci-Fi Drive In: The Sci-Fi Channel has a baby but air-conditioned accumulating of archetypal science-fiction movies and serials. I mean, Radar Men From the Moon? Truly old-school awesome.
Heroes: Going Postal: Not every activating aberration in the apple gets profiled on the hit NBC TV series. These Webisodes chase a mailman with supersonic abilities.
Gemini Division: Rosario Dawson stars in this affected cop thriller. Be abiding to analysis out the accomplished website for all the air-conditioned alternate appearance (and the oh-so-subtle Microsoft plugs throughout the clips).
Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog: This agreeable about a lovelorn supervillain is an Internet phenomenon.
Games
For me, the surest way to annihilate time in any accustomed bearings is, of course, to play games. So here's a quick account of tips and games, organized according to what accessory you ability accept with you.
Mini-notebooks: These almost bound portables are small, but able abundant to play some low-impact games. First, yield a attending at a new account currently in beta alleged Good Old Games. When it goes live, you'll be able to acquirement DRM-free old-school PC amateur optimized for XP and Vista and download them to any machine. If you still own some archetypal titles, emulators can aswell do the trick; my admired for old clear adventures is ScummVM. And be abiding to analysis out a agglomeration of abundant freeware amateur that should plan on your micro machine.

vizio Vizio SV420XVT

The SV420XVT delivers great image quality at a great price, but its design lacks finesse.

Vizio's TVs often lead in price and image quality, and this model is no exception: At $1100 (as of November 4, 2008), the SV420XVT is the least-expensive 120-Hz LCD we've seen. And it finished ahead of such competing 42-inch models as the LG 42PG25, the LG 42LGX, the Toshiba 42XV545U, and the Westinghouse TX-42F430S in our performance tests, too.

I was abnormally afflicted with the SV420XVT's superb administration of the American Idol blow we use in our testing, admitting blush assimilation that was a tiny bit too bright. I admired the angel in our Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl Blu-ray analysis as well. Admitting the aperture fade-in angel of the address was hardly grainy, I rated every added aspect of the analysis Superior--the accomplished accessible rating.
On the added hand, I was aghast by The Lord of the Rings: Return of the King DVD clip, which lacked abysmal blacks and displayed faces that didn't assume to accept the arrangement of animal derma (no, they weren't declared to accord to orcs). Since this analysis involves a accepted DVD, these after-effects may announce a shortcoming in upconverting accepted resolution. Again, admitting the SV420XVT accomplished aboriginal in angel quality, a bare four-point advance afar aboriginal and endure abode in the 42-inch category.
Unfortunately, the SV420XVT is difficult to set up: Most of the inputs are arrayed face-down on the aback of the TV and are actual difficult to ability (being a aerialist helps); a few easy-access inputs on the ancillary advance affairs somewhat. And the Vizio's first-time bureaucracy astrologer doesn't ask whether you'll be application the TV at home or in a store.
The SV420XVT lacks a amount of advantageous features, too. There's no quick card for frequently adapted settings, no USB anchorage or SD Card aperture for photos or music, and bare backlighting on the programmable remote: Only six buttons are backlit, and in the aphotic you can't acquaint what four of those are.
Still, if you're searching for the best HDTV account for the price, you may be absorbed to discount these issues.

Share Photos Easily With Anyone, Anywhere

Even in the 21st century, accompany and ancestors consistently affiance to allotment their photos afterwards a party, vacation, or added appropriate event--but hardly anyone anytime does. Why? Because, admitting contempo advances in photo sharing, it's a affliction in the backside.
Digital Cameras

The accustomed adjustment of sending out pictures is via e-mail attachments. But this access banned the amount of snapshots you can send, and creates authoritative hassles for the recipients. Two accepted photo-hosting services--Flickr and PicasaWeb--offer means yield your snapshots to the Web, but not anybody loves Flickr's ambagious interface or PicasaWeb's antibacterial one. And what about administration on the run, such as if you're abroad on vacation? Surely you don't accept to delay until you get aback to your PC?
If you're annoyed of absolution your best pics languish in an online gulag, it's time to attending at some approaches to photo administration that go above the basics.
Get Into Photo Networking
You already apperceive about amusing networking. But while Facebook and MySpace are abundant for befitting in blow with buddies, they're not so hot for administration pictures. Your photos charge a amusing arrangement of their own. For example, accept that you yield a vacation with a accumulation of friends. At the end of the trip, anybody has a camera abounding of photos--and no simple way to bandy them.
Phanfare photo sharing: bang for full-size imageEnter Phanfare, a Web annual advised accurately for photo-based networking. Like abounding online photo-hosting services, Phanfare lets you upload your pictures to a Web anthology and again allotment that anthology with others. And because (like Flickr) the annual offers aggregate accumulation albums, added users can add their own photos. Thus, anybody who went on the cruise can accord his or her snapshots to the aforementioned album, complete with captions and comments.
Phanfare absolutely shines with its laundry annual of sharing-centric features. Accompany and ancestors associates can appearance slideshows, of course, but there's aswell the advantage of accomplishments music: a alternative of such classical music as Pachelbel's "Canon in D," or the advantage to use any song uploaded from a user's PC or iTunes library. Sharers can calmly download alone photos or absolute albums at top or bargain resolution. And they can adjustment prints and photo ability from third-party casework such as Kodak Gallery, Shutterfly, and Snapfish.
In short, Phanfare is a well-rounded, easy-to-use service. Newcomers can access a chargeless annual with 1GB of storage. Upgrading to absolute accumulator will run you--and anniversary added sharer--$55 per year. Though Flickr is a bigger accord at $25 annually for absolute storage, it doesn't action accumulation downloading and has beneath press and allowance options. The added $30 buys you an interface that's abundant easier to use and family-friendly administration appearance that abridge distributing your pics to any affiliate of your accumulation who wants them, while befitting strangers from flipping through your snapshots.

You can bung just about annihilation into the 42PG25. It boasts eight inputs (four HDMI, two composite, and two component), S-Video, and two optical outputs, additional a USB anchorage for examination your photos and alert to your MP3s.

Another drawback: The absence of a Display button on the limited prevents you from calmly blockage the accepted channel, program, and abstruse specs.
Surprisingly, the 42PG25 had a harder time with motion than the 42-inch 120-Hz LCDs that we akin it against--the LG Electronics 42LGX, the Toshiba 42XV545U, and the Vizio SV420XVT--which suggests that 120 Hz absolutely agency something. One adjudicator begin "motion becloud actual noticeable" on our NASCAR test, appraisement the 42PG25's becloud as "probably [the] worst" a part of the 42-inch sets. Two board noticed a "slight clashing bricks" in Mission: Impossible III's Vatican bank climb. And anybody on the console gave it a low account on our Jaggies analysis from the HD HQV Benchmark.
