Try turning Closed Captains "on" on your t.v.

[Arwingpilot]

And what do you need for that? A remote control! that's the point of the rant: You need remote controls to do almost everything!

[cheetahmen92]

Oh yeah, you misspelt your name in the title :P

[Arwingpilot]

You... I knew that! Of course I knew that! Don't be a wally ALL your life, cheet! XD

[KitWriter]

Then Kinect is for you.

@ArwingPilot Slow is used for a frame by frame analysis of the DVD or VHS. That why they put it there.

I highly agree that they should put an up down left right button on DVD players, such as the one in the family room of my house.

True, but the problem with some of those games is that the letters can be the size of an ant, and that discriminates the slightly visually-impared.

or in your case m8 subtitles

[dbzisdakrunk]

Ya m8

I gots me a dvd player that when you insert a dvd it plays the episodes.

I TOTALLY agree with you..FUCKING PUT PLAY,PAUSE, UP, DOWN, NEXT, PREVIOUS LEFT RIGHT shit like that

[dbzisdakrunk]

M8, looking at that still of Fox is kindof creeping me out. lol

[bretikur]

YES! YES YES YES!

YOU ARE SO RIGHT!

I'm happy I'm not the only one with this problem.... I hear just fine, but I prefer subtitles... I think any gamer does.

Yeah, it's also annoying when the remote dies! If you have no batteries and have no money to get 'em, your screwed!

[TheRangeGod]

another famous Arwingpilot rant!

[davyboy90]

that is a good point Arwing! My VCR is annoying because you can accidentally turn on the on screen display with the remote, but then you can easily lose the remote and so you are stuck with an irritating OSD on the screen showing the tape counter! My TV remote is the same, settings etc need to be adjusted with the remote, only the channel and volume can be adjusted on the set itself.
