The first beam box system we had only worked for a short time - the image on the screen flashed the entire time. Then, when we tried it again later, it wouldn't work at all. Sometimes you could hear Optimus Prime's voice for a split second as it was...

We have not had that issue. But, sounds like you have had it happen on a few different systems which seems really odd. I was thinking it was the A/V cables are not in properly or the tv needs to be turned to a different input. Hope that helps!

I honestly can't remember how I got them to work. I think there is an option in the Optoma menus that state what mode of 3D to use. I happened to find DLP Link was one of the options, but this was after about an hour of messing around with it. To be completely honest I sent these glasses back because of the comfort issue. I ended up going with a model from Quantum. Much more comfortable, and I don't feel like I'm looking under them. Once you get the projector set up properly you won't need to mess with it anymore. 2D movies will play normally and it will automatically go back to DLP Link when it detects a 3D signal. After you get the projector into DLP Link mode, keep in mind there is an 'invert mode' some movies you may need to press the power button once or twice to flip between modes, otherwise the picture looks funny. I can't explain it, but you will probably recognize it when you see it. It's like instead of projecting out towards you it's projecting in away from you. Good luck getting it set up. Again it took me awhile to figure it out, but hopefully you will have better luck.

I've had the same problem. At first, I took it out and put it back in but after a few times of doing that, it didn't work any longer. I also tried turning the switch on and off and that worked at first, but alas, no more. For this much money, can't Mattel get it right?

Anybody?....we have tried everything. There is supposed to be an option for av out in the quality video settings. However the options in quality are the same as in panel quality. Very dissapointed right now. How do I get them both to play video as well as hearing the movie?

Right out of the box my tv had this problem. I have had it for 3 months and it has buzzed for approximately 5 seconds(until picture becomes visible) every time I turn it on. At first I thought I would be able to deal with it but the more I read about failures down the road, the more I think I am going to return it.

Does anybody know if SXT will work with Creative Zen Vision:M player? I'm looking for a good speaker for my Vision which should also charge it.

Thanks for your feedback, amazon notification on the discussion thread really works... :)I recently upgraded the firmware to 1.9 (2008, August 26 version), and since then I haven't (knock on wood) had any problem loading the new movies (Iron man, Transformer, Sex and City, Forgetting Sarah Marshall etc.) You may want to upgrade yours too, and hope you can enjoy the Batman begins eventually.Xin

I am going through my second 40XBR4. The first had what seemed like flashlights shining diagonally from the upper left and right corners in dark scenes. I exchanged it for a second one and it sucks as well. I think the second one is going to be returned pretty soon as well and no more Sony for me.

The beam is bright. I used mine to battle the Sith lord without any problems. But once while in Alderon my batteries were dying... I may have used them a few parsecs too many.

Bizarre. i didn't have that problem. But when your receiver is not in NTSC mode (system setting); you might have that problem. Once you go past that stage, you can see the menu and easily program the box. It is a great little box for FTA... i love it!

No it doesn't flash, I hadn't notice until I got your question, so I did a test. I left myself a message, one of the cordless (only one not both) lite up on the side and stayed lite, but it also does this when it charging. The base-corded showed nothing, you had to look at it up close and personal to see the written "A New Voice Message." If your room isn't well lit and have poor eye sight like I do, you will either have to push a button or lift the headset for the console to light up, in order to read the message. UPDATE: THE LIGHT WENT OUT, SO NO IT DOESN'T FLASH OR LITE STAY ON UNTIL YOU RETRIEVE YOUR MESSAGE. No it doesn't flash, I hadn't notice until I got your question, so I did a test.

I have 3 plasmas (will have 4 soon). My oldest is 5 years old (480p). If I go to a blue screen I can see a slight burn from [MUTE] flashing in the same spot. With normal content on the screen it is not noticeable at all. The newer panels are so much more advanced and burn-in or IR is a thing of the past. Turn on the "pixel shift" and don't worry. Just don't fall asleep with a still image on any technology.

Sometimes it works, sometimes not. It crashes the flash plug-in for me. I watched the entire first season of Big Bang Theory just fine.... then I paid $30.00 for the second season and I can't watch it! PLEASE FIX IT AMAZON.

I installed mine today - optical out from TV to XT1 - and also get audio delay. No changes to settings (TV or XT1) will improve audio delay. My guess is TV is sending audio through optical too late for XT1 to pump it out and catch up with the picture. I will be returning this soon unless I find a solution. Not impressed.

I have tested some different source material & found whenever i'm playing a blu-ray this light problem is visible, when I remove the blu-ray & Denon is displayed from my player on screen the light problem disappears, the entire display is very black. I played Mass effect 2 & it looks fantastic, the lighting seems to be correct during game play, black coloring on the left & right side are very black. I have tried a few blu-ray's & they all show the light on the left & right side, its extremely visible during intro & credits which in turn leaves the entire display a washed out black.
