I know quite a few people here that are all very knowledgeable in home theater related topics(and I bet Jello would agree). While Jello's advice is usually always spot on, I really don't like the current trend of "He's jello so listen to him".

Jello does know his HT stuff but he is not the end all of knowledge. There are other forum members that equal and sometimes surpass him in knowledge. That being said I'm very happy that this forum is now around.

Sweet, I remember posting in forum issues how AT would be a great place to have HT/HTPC discussions since many of the other boards that have this will not allow price discussion.

So, who writes the ffdshow walk through sticky, calibration sticky, and how do you guys intend to organize this virgin territory? I think some forum guidelines would be in order (not rules necessarily, but, for example, do you want a thread for each display or a big thread for each display type?). Are subforums a possibility?

And, yes, YoYo would be an excellent choice for hidden mod (back on topic).

/agree with that, especially getting some ffdshow AT love.

alot of the other FFDshow guides are older than dirt, and while some of them apply, i would think that with todays processing power (especially with the age of the 8500/8600 and h.264 postprocessing), i think an updated guide would be awesome!



granted, im in no position at all to write one, so think of it as a request :)

I think everybody knows this. It's just that Yoyo is the most recognizable out of the bunch. Some people on this forum are known for particular things....NFS4 for car threads, Bunny for photography, and Yoyo for everything home theater and speakers.

I don't claim to know it all... or even really that much :p

It's this crazy name I picked out and the custom title I got for some reason I think heh... and more about being on AT too much of the time and posting in too many of these sort of threads :D

I submit my vote for YoYo to be crowned the "king"!

It was mentioned above that there are members here to perhaps know as much as, or more, than YoYo does about home theatre, and that could very well be true. But every time I've had a question, YoYo answered almost every time and a lot of the other experts did not reply much, if at all. I figure knowledge is useless unless you're willing to share it with those who seek it, and YoYo definitely delivers there.

Last year I was a mere slip of a lad who didn't know the difference between a speaker and a cat condo and was trying to figure out which HTIB setup was best... the $200 one or the $250 one. I had never set foot into the HT world before and YoYo showed me the door and helped me make my own choices (wisely, even) and now I've got a full-blown HT system that is the envy of the neighborhood and has let me enjoy movies like I could never imagine.

Vote for Pedro! (er, YoYo!)

Seriously, if you want to be The Man, then answer every HT question as thoroughly at as thoughtfully as Jello does.

Another vote for Jello!

I like to think I played a hand in Jello's current speaker choice. ;)


That said... YOyoYOhowsDAjello for president!


PS: weird... I *just now* noticed that it's three Yo's and not two. Been thinking YoYo for so long, when I should have been thinking YoYoYo!
