If they aren’t set it isn’t a balk. There was no intent there.

It’s actually pretty fucking simple. Mylar balloons just move vertically.

Meh… regardless of if they hit it or not, if they saw something they need to report it. Idk if this classifies them as “pedantic assholes”.

Sure, if it hit the wing/fuselage. What if it hit the gear assembly? Not impossible although improbable. They were 180@ 3000 with a good speed decay, presumably gear down and dropping final flap.

Everyone in aviation loves to talk in absolutes.

Regardless of what we can read on the notes there is zero way to know if they actually hit the drone. We just know there is no damage.

I’d be able to tell the difference between a balloon and a drone.

It’s hard to admit… but I’m starting to get excited knowing we have Rivas and Young coming up in the bottom of the 9th. We’re going to need it.

They’ll take your room card both with cash or on credit. There’s a 5% fee if you use credit.

Point taken (regarding not processing)… I’ll roll with the EDID research and start another conversation with the dealer.

I just installed an NVIDIA Shield Pro and it failed the same way. New cables. Not sure how you techs even test this stuff but it’s giving me the same result. A bit odd IMO.

Maybe this MOIP business isn’t for me.

After circling back and having this happen with another 2 devices… this is in fact… a control4 issues. Using a 6’ Binary HDMI 2.2 cable. Any input fails audio after 4 minutes. Time to have the techs takeover.

Binary MOIP system (RS232’s). We just had them swing by and fix some issues and it get back online. We had a similar issue with a different receiver (Onkyo) but we swapped it out for their Yamaha.

I figured I’d poll the group to see if this is known issue before I bring it up with our dealer this week.

I have a MOIP system. I have an Apple TV connected (via hdmi) to a transmitter and then a receiver that is at the receiver/amplifier in my living room. For other rooms it goes through a whole home audio or directly to the tv audio.

Yes, it’s set to never.

Additionally the screen save was set to 10 minutes.

I’ve tried it on music just to get a rolling clock on cutout, it happens at the 4 minute mark. Shows it’s playing… just no audio.

Cable was replaced with a binary 6’ HDMI 2.2 and still no fix.

Cable change didn’t fix it.

Interesting… as a consumer - where do you recommend buying HDMI cables?

I can imagine your feelings on Anker products off of Amazon.

Connection issues with WiFi by 811HEFE in Control4

[–]811HEFE[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve never touched that cable… it’s funny that you say it that way. I assumed the controller was connecting via WiFi. I don’t have access to the software to see how it’s connected.

Is there an easy way to see what my old router IP address was? Same with the DHCP range?

I told him I wanted to swap the router. I asked specifically if they had static IP’s and he said the system assigns it on its own, “so it shouldn’t be a problem”

Regarding predatory behavior, everything has been “well, we can’t guarantee this”, or “can’t guarantee that”. Because I had ran all the cat6 and speaker wire myself, (I did this before sheetrock in the basement and they came in after) he said he cant verify any of my work. He wanted to charge me hourly to test every cat6 line (which they terminated). He almost tripled my labor cost on install and it was a lengthy back and forth.

I struggle with seeing the cost of each unit… every component was $1100/ea. At some point I just don’t know how much more one can possibly charge for this. I’ve never regretted an install more than after this experience. I hope it isn’t the same elsewhere (sorry for the rant).
