LOL. the Captain 8000HD was my first receiver.
Beautiful picture in HD and a real nice user interface.
It is actually an "unforgetable receiver."
Still have mine- but currently we are separated - kicked her out of bed years ago for a lean mean SV8000HD

Real nice user interface ?!?! There has not been an uglier gui prior to or since the captain - couldn't make it worst no matter how hard you'd try. lol

It's a paper weight ... no files , no source and it was only good for bev (mpeg2) hd . Had a great picture tho . Mine's still collecting dust somewhere - just don't have the heart to get rid of it. lol

this thread made me Laugh and smile of the day my captain arrived by Canada Post. I was so eager to get this HD machine up and running and the ease of loading files by usb! said Goodbye to my captiveworks 600p . Both great Boxes still Have them aswell in my electronic graveyard in the Furnace room.
