Sorry to bring this up again but the DVR thing is really paramount for me. For those using the PS for the DVRing. Are you able to record ahead in a schedule? Or can you only record what is playing live? I’m still perplexed how s 3rd party device can record another company signal “smartly”? (Meaning setting commands to tape shows at any time forever... etc )

Yes that’s exactly how it will run. But just in case: I do have the house router connect to the patch panel too. That’s for running internet to my office where I have the desktop hard wired and I have a Ubiquiti commercial grade WiFi extender. Sooooo. The panel does “connect” to a router but the router will not be part of this “tv circuit”. The router is just because I like the desk top to be hard wired and it was easier for me to have the wifi network dish upstairs. So I hope all is okay.

“Be aware”? Like it might not work or watch out you’ll fry something? My home really not a “network”. It’s just that each room has a CAT5 wire running behind the walls all down to a central “manifold” gizmo. My router and cable boxes are in that location. I will use a wireless remote to work the cable box. So do I have a “network” or do I have a delicates line? My guess is the later.

So CAT5e is different than CAT5? how would I know if my “big” plug is CAT5e before I buy that box?

Everything is staged. The one time a still fell out of back of the truck when you played it in slo motion you can see that Cooter kicked it out of the back.

Which service is the actual recording device?

Can you access the DVR from any tv with that Sony or is it only doe that device?

Putting self employed is intreresting. Does the page that you are asked employer on have the “by signing you are attesting the above is true.... etc etc?

So I’ve been experimenting. I have Optimum right now. My major beef with cable now is paying $10 per box for every other TV. It adds up to $40 more a month!! so to mitigate that I’ve been buying Roku sticks and ditching cable boxes. BUT not all tv is live feed with Roku. Bummer. BUT THEN I discover DirectNow which gives me live on any device so BOOM I can cut the cord. But wait, no DVR on DirectNow?!? Sucrebleu!!! 75% of my viewing is via DVR so it’s a deal breaker. How are you guys who cut the cord dealing with DVR loss? No; watching on demand is not the same you still get subjected to commercials. The entire point of DVR was 60 minute show in 40 minutes skip conmercials

Above was mentioned Ethernet over HDMI. Does anybody know how to get HD over Ethernet? And I don’t mean streaming channels. I mean: Cable box is in one room. That room has a cat 5 wire to other room. I want to get the cable TV to broadcast HD to a tv in the next room via the CAt 5. so again. Not Internet to the TV, but the cable signal from the box to travel over a CAT5 into the other TV which is a smart TV

Killing time in Costco = buying a barrel of pretzels that will outlast the life of those tires or buying a 6 pack of those raw hide work gloves that again will last until I’m unable to walk. Heres what always gets me in Costco. “Hey check out those battery operated mini hockey puck lights. I have no idea where the will go but I bet I can find a use for them. (And I never do)

Add me to list of Tirerack plus shipping plus install at local garage was cheaper than Costco. And not having to sit at Costco while installed is priceless

Oh please. Just because I said that after he passed it makes a difference? If I posted that before he was gone i probably would have gotten 5 likes. If anybody is connecting what I wrote as being like “happy” someone is deceased you’re crazy. everyone is chiming in here what they thought about him. I put him in ignore. It’s like he just loved causing abrasion. If people like conflict then fine. It was just my choice to want to read this board without it.

He was the first person I ever put on IGNORE... ever, in my life.. on any board..

Most frequent error by DIY front door installers. Not setting the bottom of the threshold high enough to make it over a floor mat as it opens inward. take note

Keep at it fellas. I’m long AAPL

If anybody gets a bloody nose from this they are holding it wrong. Watch the Thunder Ranch video for this gun. Both arms full extended, not near your face. Use it that way and you might say “aahhhh I see now...”

Is that 9mm?

From Brooklyn to Anthony’s pocket. Ka Ching. Good for him and good for the expansion...

The tragedy of this is that nobody was able to advise this guy to just sell his property outright to pay off the loan instead of going into foreclosure? Based on how long he was here, and taking out a home equity loan ten yesrs ago and how much property values have gone up. And with an 8000 square foot “other building”.. I’m just speculating he’d have tons of money left over if he just sold the house.

This debate has been going on for years. First thing we need to know is the bottom of crawl space dirt or concrete?

The guy who killed Bin Laden on the stern show said he never went through one full magazine (I'll assume 30 rounder) on ANY single mission. He said basically only i idiots spray bullets you don't fire unless you know it will kill someone

I just meant in general when it happens usually something else I learn. On another board a while ago a guy asked a question about having a dump truck drop a load a stone in his yard and some chimed in "watch out the truck doesn't bust up your sidewalk." And the guy replied "I'm not a retard I know". But all i was thinking was wow great advice about the sidewalk.

This thread was a great example of sometimes there is thread drift but it's for a good reason. Soneone asks a question about something (life straw). Someone bashes it (usual in intenet world) then we learn something else (in this case the straw might be adequate but what is more important is transporting water) I like when that happens.
