    Why do some blue-ray movies doesn't play on blue ray machine?

    2 years is now a VERY long time in electronics. Things change rapidly and companies create more shoddy products. The solution is the same. Go the web site of your blu-ray manufacturer and check if there are any firmware upgrades for your model.

    My blueray player will not conect to my wireless router. ?

    On your router, check if there is any blocking from your firewall. From any PC, try to "ping" the blu-ray player. There is a lot of troubleshooting you can do before you get a new router.

    Hooking up dvd player?

    Most DVD players do have component video out (R/G/B) and since your TV has only component video input, that' s the only way you can connect them together. So, get some extra cables. If your DVD player has no RGB (component out), it must be really low-end. Then you need to buy an RF modulator...

    Isn't it ironic that a VCR is still necessary, while a DVD player is obsolete?

    DVRs are a pain to use and VCRs are not? You must be living in another world. A Computer with a TV tuner card can work as a DVR as well - so your logic makes no sense. Unless you have old VCR tapes, the VCR is useless.

    Can a DivX compatible DVD player understand MP4 video file?

    .mp4 usually implies using the h.264 codec, so in that case no. However, there are .mp4 files that use MPEG-4, part 2, which is what Divx is using. AVI is also a container, that also support MPEG-4, part 2, but not all AVI files use it. So, unless you try out, you will never know...

    OK daft question , can DVD's be used anywhere , or are they country or region...

    There are two problems a) Video standards- usually NTSC (North America) vs PAL/SECAM (rest of the world) b) Region coding So, unless in NZ, you have a Region-free, universal DVD player, I wouldn't buy a DVD from the US .

    Can recordable DVDs play on Blue Ray player?

    Make sure you record in DVD-Video format. I would be very surprised if a BD player did not support recordables, but you never know...; check the specs.

    Has anyone ever received a good answer as to why someone believes in Christ?

    Religion is NOT Math, where everything is about the proof. It is not about believing in "Christ" (or Allah or Budha) but the values they represent: respect for life, modesty, and helping others. These are values you can have regardless of whether you are atheist or religious.

    Is having an LED TV vs LCD Tv going to make any difference when watching Dish

    If you don't plan to play games, you may want to consider a panasonic plasma as well. Go to a store, try to watch them side by side. If you can't tell the difference, go with the cheaper one.

    How the FUCK do I connect my Coby dvd398 home theater system to the TV so that

    If your Coby has s/pdif audio input (I don't think it has), connect s/pdif out from TV to Coby. Otherwise, connect stereo audio out. If your TV has no audio out, connect your set-top box directly to the Coby.
