Netflix imageHow to get to the Netflix menu on a LG Bluray

As part of Rancho Santa Fe Home Theater’s commitment to customer service, we have created a short video on how to get to the Netflix feature that is on the LG Bluray player.


How big is this TV?

Our creativity never ends. Here is a bedroom installation where the client was having a difficult time reading the ticker symbols from his bed. So our solution is a bigger flat screen TV along with a soundbar. How big you ask? Well how about 90-inches on a tilting swing arm. check it out.


What kind of remote is this?

Part of our keeping things as simple as possible, we programmed an iPad so that the client could clearly see the buttons to control everything in the bedroom.

For more information, or a demonstration of this remote, please pick up the phone or send us a Text at 858-764-2648

How To Enable Your iPad To Mirror Your Apple TV On Your Flat Screen

Here are some simplified instructions on using the feature called Mirroring on your iPad along with the use of the Apple TV. As part of our commitment to customer service at Rancho Santa Fe Home Theater. We will post frequently asked questions about our products and services that we have installed, serviced, or programmed. So lets get started….

1. On your iPhone or iPad, if you DO NOT HAVE iOs 7, then double-click the Home Button which is the round one that is on the lower front of your display. This will bring up all of the Apps you just used on your iPad and will shift your entire display up and grey it out for a moment. This is normal and everything will resume back to normal once we are finished mirroring.

If you have the latest iOs7 operating system, then using your finger swipe up from the bottom of your screen to access the Control Center like the image here.

4. Enable AirPlay Mirroring* from this menu by tapping the name of your Apple TV, then toggle the on/off slider to ON. Some of you may have multiple Apple TV’s in different rooms. So pick the one that you are in front of.iPad airplay display

5. AirPlay menu with Mirroring option ON and the icon has turned blue in color indicates that you should see an exact mirror of whatever is happening on your iPhone, or iPad.

6. Now Tap on the Home button and select the Apple App that you want to see on your television.

Many times, we find that the current WiFi system that the cable companies, AT&T just does not have the distance to travel to every room that you live. Therefore, it reduces the practical use of this feature.
