Consumer Electronics - 12 November 2007

I am making an independent film... I want to spend as little as possible and i would like to know if it is really even necessary to buy thousands of dollars camera when I can just buy a smaller one that's cheaper and works just as well.

The problem with that is, it wasn't a commerical for any store, like Walmart or Target or any store! It was pretty much a commercial for Sony as if it were stating that the price for a Playstation 3 will be $299.99. All I want to know is when & where!?

I just bought a 5.1 surround sound home theater system but I'm having trouble getting it to work. I have digital cable connected from the set top box to my samsung HDTV using an hdmi cable. I then ran an optical audio cable from the optical out on the tv to the optical in on the theater system but I am getting no sound from the system. I can get tv sound if I turn up the tv speakers but the sound is not going from the tv to the theater system. I thought the system or cables were defective but then I swithed the tv source to my wii which is connected to the tv using component cables and the sound came through the theater system just fine (through the optical cable). Is there a setting I need to adjust on my cable box or something? Maybe run the optical cable from my cable box to the theater system? I'd rather not do that latter since I may run out of optical inputs on the theater system in the future.

I get this very loud buzzing (almost like feedback but at a lower pitch) from my stereo when I hook up another pair of RCA cables to my pre amp. Why is this?

I have a pre amp and an amp. I've had them five plus years and I've never had this problem. I have a CD player and an XM Radio hooked up to it without any problems. I'm trying to hook my Nintendo Wii up to the stereo, but I get the strange noise. I also get the noise when I hook up the TV. I've tried different RCA cables, but that doesn't change anything. I've tried different plugs in the back. I've tried switching to the CD player with the TV, the CD player will work fine and the TV will give the sound.

What's really weird is that I can hook up the RCA cable, I get the noise, I then turn the amp off and I still get the noise! How is this even possibile when I've turned the power off from the amp?

I just want to be able to run my Wii through my stereo! This shouldn't be that hard.

We just bought the wii for Christmas. Don't want to waist our money on a stupid game. Please give me advice for the best adventure games. I loved Donkey Kong for 64, and Mario brothers. Are those good ones?

Im going to buy the Canon rebel t2 for Christmas, but im not sure if it captures video. If it doesnt, can you tell me of another camera that also captures video. I would like a camera with a VERY sharp image, and for proffesional photographers. In other words i would like a film camera with video capturing. If there are no cameras like this, are there any camcorders or digital camers with a great image?

Remember when CDs were the digital audio standard. They came out with HD CDs but never caught on. They were killed by the MP3 which was replaced by MP4 in WMA and AAC.

Is this on the virge of happening with Video? I use netflix and really enjoy their online selection of videos.. It is so nice to have instant access to what I want to watch. I can't help but wonder if this is where Video is currently going.
