Some of you have been looking at this black theme. Some of you like it. Some of you don’t. I think it’s absolutely dreadful. It’s a commercial pagelines theme, which has technical advantages, but it’s going to need some help cosmetically. It might take till Christmas.
It looks [...]

More Bugs than the Bunny
If there is a perfect storm, it’s been Retrovision. You’ll notice some buggy behavior. Most of the problems with the new blip player are under repair. You’ll notice a difference in the operation of the player in multi-part shows such as serials and tv shows. This is only [...]

Tagged: , , , , by Kevin

I like to play an electric guitar and was playing today when I heard that Les Paul succumbed to pneumonia today at age 94. From 1941, when he invented “The log” a 4X4 with steel string strung on it that was embedded in a epiphone body to make it not look so much like [...]

New Feature – Browse

Tagged: , , by Kevin

Trying to keep this web site simple, fast and still easy to browse has always been elusive. For a while, since there are about a thousand choices and a couple thousand shows, I have known that this web isn’t the easiest to navigate. To cure the problem at least to some extent I have included a new page. It has drop down menus for the most populated movie and TV show categories. You can still navigate by tags. This is just another way.

Look over to your right under the search bar and you’ll find the new “Quick Browsing Page”.

This post was caught as spam in my comments section, but I thought it was a neat post and the theory behind it looks very plausible.   We’ll all be using the new digital broadcasting pretty soon, so I hope you are prepared.   I have been using “off-the-air” HDTV for some time now.   [...]

Is everybody ready for Digital?

Tagged: , , , by Kevin

June 12 is the end of an era in analog broadcast TV. It’s great. More free channels. Better video quality. It is going to require a little more equipment and perhaps a different antenna to get the new broadcast. I’ve been using digital TV for more than a year now, [...]
