I read a fascinating analysis of why this may be true. It seems that the loss he's taken on X-ster can be used to offset gains in his other businesses. So if you consider the tax implications of offsetting Tesla, etc., Running it into the ground might be a shrewd decision. A pity, though...

I bought the AirTV and it's been rock stable, if not just a tad warm but I have an exhaust fan anyway behind the entertainment center

Yeah, it works. Now the big Q. Where do we post to or will you sync up the posts from the new server and the old server or keep posting on the this one?

Well Scott, Great work. I've noticed that screen updates are much snappier! Job well done! It just shows that the cost of computing is going down, and providers have to be more competitive to keep their subscriber base.

Great, thanks for the explanation. I'll take a shot at re-plugging.

I was a little taken aback when I restarted my Hopper this morning. I am unsure how long this has been this way (H372), but I was used to seeing two black Hopper 3 Starting up screens one after the other. This morning, I had to look twice, as the first screen was a very nice, pleasing Blue while...

Oh it's back now.

Hey, also in Columbus. Have you been having audio breakup problems on Ch 4 NBC4i? It seems that the audio will break up randomly but always when it switches from local DMA to the network. Like NBC News at 6:30, it always breaks up for about a minute before stabilizing. If you're having...

You can watch but just selecting the on demand movie and just hit play, not opening up the menu, just highlight the movie and press play

Well, if they go TU, as long as I can keep the Hopper and keep the 10+ TB of saved programs going back 15 years then at least it will be some consolation.

Sorry but in Chapter 11 or receivership contracts are null and void.

First, I've heard they used Zigbee, but if they do, you might be able to use a Conbee stick and DeConz to try to find them and their addresses. If they can be added to the Conbee controller as an endpoint, then by definition, they all can act as relays.
