Some people have had difficulty transferring video from their Panasonic PV-GS500 camcorder. The solution for me came when I found a DV to Firewire cable.
AAA Battery Roadside Service Is Shockingly Impressive.
Our family has AAA Roadside Service (California) and I call their number (800-AAA-HELP). They can get a person out within 30 minutes, I was told. The battery cost is just over $100 and the service call is included in us paying for AAA roadside service. The whole process is completed within the time they told me the service technician would arrive, 30 minutes. I was shocked at how fast this whole repair process took.
Kayak DD Video Switcher Goes Down While I Watch It Happen.
I am at the end of my Monday proof of a million dollar TV studio and control room. I run into snags every week and today is not any better. Here are some examples for this day: I can’t get the Deko character generator computer to turn on until I go through a special power up process. It finally does power up very clean.

My daughter came to me complaining that our cat had chewed into the Wii sensor bar and it now fails to work. I looked at the cable and indeed the cat had chewed right through the outer insulation and right into the wires. Just over three feet nearest the antenna was damaged in about three places. The remedy was to cut the wire at the last break and solder it into the bar. I was later to find out that…
Perfect Your TV Viewing
This article is only directed toward individuals that own pretty good DVD players and flat screen displays using HDMI cables. One of my jobs is to perform technical support for a state university department. I was asked to solve a problem with a large screen TV set in a department’s class room used to show movies.

Removal Piston Assembly From Pac Fab 2″ PVC Backwash Valve
Most home pool systems have a backwash valve that allows the owner to send pool water through the filter, typically diatomaceous earth, to rather quickly and cheaply clean the filter. I encountered a major problem with our backwash valve. I could not make it function properly. It would not slide the plastic handle completely down and thus I sent a small stream of water out of the pool when the pool pump was running. When I tried to take the…
