    How can you turn off HDMI Control on a DIRECTV Gemini?

    The way that HDMI-CEC was rolled out, not all manufacturers implement all the features so they cover themselves by using "custom" terminology. Another blog question giving hope where there currently isn't any.

    Ford to drop AM radio in new vehicles

    Is the AM band at any jeopardy from being desirable enough for mobile communications for FCC to auction it off, like with the TV spectrum?

    How can you turn off HDMI Control on a DIRECTV Gemini?

    Thanks to satellite guru “Doctor J” for this suggestion! I’ve talked about HDMI control several times on this blog, including last month when I did a whole tutorial about it. HDMI Control, also known as HDMI-CEC, Anynet+, and a bunch of other manufacturer-specific names, is a technology which...

    Need new Video Editing computer.

    Make sure you can suffer Windows 11 with all of your important applications. I'd suggest that you scale way back on the SSD since time is no longer critical and rendering is "the most miserable and time consuming job of all". I like the idea of the older processor as you don't risk getting...

    Ford to drop AM radio in new vehicles

    There is an app called " tune in" that integrates with Apple car play and android auto that will allow you to stream most am stations at better quality than if you received them over the air...the app also has a built in tuner if you want fm digital or am stations the old fashioned OTA way

    Need new Video Editing computer.

    DisplayPort? To hitch your wagon to? Are those HDMI ports next to it? I have been suspicious of Dell since the days where they had power supplies that were plug compatible with standard power supplies. But some of the pins had different functions. So you HAD to buy a Dell brand PS. Plugging...

    Need new Video Editing computer.

    I was editing some video I shot yesterday in 3D spatial video with the iphone and I kept getting weird errors in adobe Premiere Pro, Missing or corrupt image data. Never had this problem before so I tested several files located on different drives and continued to get same errors. I then tried...

    I didn't like this decision by DiSH- my favoring was a single box in the house and not box at each screen.

    Ford to drop AM radio in new vehicles

    I have noticed that several music AM stations in both Tucson and Albuquerque sound "hollow and tinny" on their FM translators. This is especially true with 50,000 watt KDRI in Tucson which I always enjoy while driving from El Paso to Yuma. I am always tempted to switch to the FM version on...

    Auto Racing 2024

    I saw that when I checked this morning. I was watching the feed from the #50 Ferrari and first thought, “a dry Le Mans” then the wiper started going intermittently. About an hour left and more rain.

    Trying to get a straight answer

    IIRC, the 722 feeds TV1 AND TV2 on separate RF channels from the TV out coax on the back or the receiver and feeds TV1 to the nearby TV with HDMI and/or Component. IF you go Hopper you would have to have a Joey at the other TV fed by coax but that coax is backfed through the coax that comes from...

    Toyota appear tops at the moment, but Ferrari are strong as well, though near front running 83 fell out after a heavily smoking right front brake must have caused deeper issues. The Number 2 Cadillac appears primed to steal a podium spot. Rain is coming, drops but steady showers behind it...

    Thanks for the info on the FEC rate change I wasn't aware of that one. I went ahead and disassembled the unit and didn't see anything obvious except maybe a couple of solder joints at the board for it was questionable. I cleaned off the old hard heat sink compound from the processor and heat...

    I'd like to update everyone... I'm thinking that another tree is now blocking the signal. I'm going to verify this, and move the dish to where I can verify that no tree is in the way with the dish pointer app... In order to address some of the great info y'all have given... Yes, my Super Buddy...
