Jed, what I was referring to was the fact that my 950 remote could be set to lock the volume control to the 950, as opposed to any other component one might be controlling via the remote. So, if I were using the remote to TV channel surf and wanted to turn up the volume on a particular channel, I could use the volume control on the remote, have it adjust the volume on the 950, and not have to switch inputs on the remote from "TV" to "TNR" or however that remote was labeled.
Might be more of a remote issue than a 990 issue, not sure. Then again, might be a "break down and read the manual" issue more than anything else...

Although it looks like Outlaw has a huge hit on their hands with the 990, I thought we could use a thread to help the Outlaw's improve upon its already rich feature set. To take the idea from the "anything negative" thread but to make it, well, less negative I thought we could all list what we would like to see addressed/improved with the 990. I realize some of it may not be possible, but having everything in one thread should make it easier for them to find it.
I guess I will get it started:
* In order to make it easier I am just going to periodically edit this post to bring all of the requests to the top. That way the Outlaws won't have to filter through some of the non related posts. The order will simply be in the order they were posted, not in order of importance.
1. Setup through the 990's front panel display like the 950.
2. Allow for the 7.1 direct input to not have to be assigned to a video output.
3. Allow renaming of Audio inputs.
4. Leave the S-Video input active when the selected source is DVI or Component.
5. Have a surround setting for Dolby Digital 2/0 so that the unit will stay in either Dolby 5.1 or 2.0 as the input switches and will not go off to prologic.
6. Trim options available for multiple inputs, not just a global setting.
7. Allow a "bypass" to the 7.1 Inputs so analog audio doesn't get digitized and bass managed by the 990 without having to set speakers to large.
8. Disable the toggle on the 7.1 command. Make it only a discrete on command.
9. Make the OSD progressive scan so it can be displayed while viewing a component video progressive source. Currently the OSD is interlaced-only.
10. Second sub delay and trim.
11. Bass management enhancement: Add equivalent of ICBM L/R Recombine feature. This would allow routing of bass from center and surround channels to large front speakers, even if a subwoofer is in use.
Lou, your post about "a master volume control like the 950" confused me. To me it sounded like a physical change so I left it off the list. If it was a software change please correct me and I will put it in the list.
