Hi Peter, WPA security usually goes with TKIP encryption. WPA2 security usually goes with AES encryption. The passphrase is not a password it is a base or starting point for the encryption engine. Make sure that the string you use is not too long or too short and is entered *identically* on both de...

I have a Belkin ADSL WLAN router, its security settings are: Allowed client type: WPA/WPA2 Preshared key type: Passphrase Preshared key: my.password (no, it's not that) And on the S1: Authetication type: WPAPSK E...

According to the Bureau of Statistics, that makes you about 20 :) (ages 0-19 are 26.4%).
I hang out somewhere round the 80th percentile.
I meant the 27th percentile of our poll - which makes at least double your esstimate :)
Hmm... I'm in the 80th percentile either way :)

... It's starting to look like a fair proportion of us are over 40. :D About 45% of the population is over 40, so maybe that's not such a surprise. True but up until the last time I looked, the over 40s were over 50% here so for a long while it was looking as if we were over represented in the BW s...

Hi Peter, There are two levels of downmixing on offer. One is to downmix the Dolby Digial 5.1 - AC3 signal to stereo or Dolby Pro-Logic. The other is to take the Dolby Digital 5.1 - AC3 signal and downmix it to 5.1 analogue channels. It is the value of the later that I am questioning. Regards, Ian....

Hi Peter, But do you want the DD signal downmixed to the 6 analogue outputs at the back? Do you want it downmixed to 5.1 at any time? Regards, Ian. Hmmm. It looks like I'm not understanding something. I thought that the downmixing referred to the ability to mix 5.1 broadcast audio down to just ster...

It still looks like no-one is actually using the 5.1 downmix mode!

Does everyone with a BW really have a 5.1 amp? I don't.

... if I leave it on ten and the signal is bad (varies day to day) then it can crash the Unit before it finishes booting and I can change the channel. The BW definately needs improved handling of poor signals, channel 10 is able to crash my unit very consistently when it has a borderline signal. It...

For a bit more information about the chipset - Product brochure. The EM8623L is the same as the EM8622L but without Macrovision (see the bottom line of the product table).

Philip And this is something inherent in the process, unless you have hardware assist for decoding, scaling and recoding the image. A feature length m...
