Onkyo Dropping HD DVD Support?

Onkyo appears to be the latest HD DVD defector, announcing they’re “suspending” support for the format. This comes on the heels of Blu-ray and Warner’s coup de grace and less than a year after Onkyo announced its lone HD DVD player, the DV-HD805. They haven’t closed the door all the way, but does anyone else see Onkyo “resuming” support for HD DVD? [Wesley Tech via Crunch Gear]

    Ho-Hum – another format war, just like to old Beta v VHS on many years gone buy. Just remember, the better format (Beta) didn’t win that war, so careful on what you purchase this time around. Think I’ll just wait and see who wins out of this lot before I part with hard-earned money, thank you very much

    Hi I have an Onykyo TX DS595 AV receiver, of late the infra red receiver has failed to operate from commands from the remote control, sometimes it will operate, but now appears to have failed completely, The Remote transmitter is in order, I have programmed it to operate other equipment,which works ok, I suspect a faulty infra red receiver module in the receiver,
    Rather than having to dismantle my AV receiver, I have an alternative solution which I think I can employ using a seperate infra red receiver mounted on the amp, this amplifer has a jack socket market R1 with a 3.5mm socket I am unsure if this is an output or an input! Question I have is this,.can I connect the external infra red receiver to this socket, will this method enable me to have control from my Remote control transmitter? any feed back is most welcome
