Ok, update - I am still trying to get my two requirements solved... For the subwoofer IR eye: 1. I tested the 3.5mm 3 pole socket on the subwoofer IR receiver socket, and the ring (middle section) provides +5V. Pairing with this appears to be ground (sleeve) and I guess, by elimination, signal...

Thanks, Edit: "I" should of looked at a bit more carefully.

Ok, well now you've made me go and look again. Maybe not. It is just that you can't see the level of condensate in the trap, and the debris looked like it had dried out. But maybe it hasn't and completely full so I can not see the upper level. I am used to normal drainage traps where the level...

Thanks. Ok I will contact installer, so does that mean it is not normal for the trap to dry out then?

Morning all. Appreciate advice on this. We had an intergas Eco RF installed in Sep 2018, it is not yet due for an annual service. When it was installed, I'm fairly sure I recall the clear condensate trap under the unit was filled with water and clean. However, after 4 month's use. It is dry...

I use a return feed. I always like to design distribution like that to give you the option. Back when I used to work in the in the game anyway. Recently, came on here and tried the Edison HD Mod, on advice provided. Works pretty well for a roku streaming stick.. I used to use a sky box rf2...

It not something I have been involved in for a number of years. But the most cost effective and widely used (in commercial type setups with large numbers of speakers) are the 100v speaker / 100v pa or install type amps. If you search "install amplifier for multiple speakers" you will see some...

It wasn't me so I'll try my best to pass your message onto whomever did it!

Yes, thanks really helpful. So therefore splicing a HDMI cable to the end of the damaged cable plug end is probably not a great solution of the conductor lengths are fairly critical? Thanks very much for the detail.

yes thanks. but.... it is chased and plastered in....

Briefly, in wall cable run with damaged end plug. I am pretty handing with fitting connectors, done RJ45 before, also quite handy with a soldering iron but there seems to be very few male HDMI plugs. Some on Amazon have screw down terminations but come from china so 3 weeks wait.... Another...

So just to close this out, I could not get around the problem on the Philips STB. I bought a used Humax Fox T2 HD box and no such problem. It doesn't ask to confirm the network at the outset and it has manual tuning but scanned and saved the distributed channel anyway. It saved it on channel...

Ok, thanks. I will try to test the MJ Acoustics 3.5mm 3 pole plug for starters to determine where power is.. Are most of the external IR repeat kits 12V?

Yes, I bought a receiver with 3 pole jack. It was cheap as chips like £4 so not sure if it is worth persisting with that. Would something like this be more likely to be successful? https://cpc.farnell.com/pro-signal/psg03520/ir-receiver/dp/AV20243 I take your point about wiring, not sure MJ...

I'm having a bit of brain fade here. A long, long time ago I used to set up some remote switching using full xantech kits, receiver, emitters, power module etc. However, my needs are not that extensive. All I really want is to control an old Rotel amplifier volume which is inside a cabinet (it...

Thanks for your reply - on a Friday night too. I did wonder about all those identifiers etc. I changed the ONID 9018 but it doesn't seem to have made any difference. I also tried changing the LCN first of all to 052 but it didn't seem to take as when entering the menus the number kept flashin...

Ok, so here is a little brain teaser for you on a Friday night. I bought an Edison HDMI modulator. Set it up, used the default broadcast channel 43 frequency. On my new Samsung TV downstairs, no problem picks up the digital freeview channels and the HDMI distributed feed, although it comes up on...

Thanks Winston1 and foxhole. I may go with the Edison then, a quick looks like it doesn't have HDMI pass through which is a bit of an annoyance but I suppose I could just resort to the encoded HD digital signal via coax. On a non 4k TV how much worse could it be. I am hoping line ball... A now...

Thanks v much for the input and clarification. It an easy oversight to assume the spec of transmission, or sometimes, as I have found in the past only after purchasing something, published or advertised details are wrong. And there are lots of products on the market, so I don't hold that against...

Good point. I had thought about a freeview box for the one old LCD panel we have with an analogue only tuner but probably would have forgotten about the HD tuner requirement. Thanks.
