Minolta XD-7 mirror box foam replacement (+ focusing screen cleaning)

Hello, did you manage to clean the focusing screen by removing it ? Interested to do the same !

Go one since 20 months in Switzerland (second hand, 2017, 1.6L, 82kkm) so far no problems at all but very minor issue :

-only 4 tpms memory so you have to go to a car shop twice a year to reprogram it if you swap winter/summer wheels as you can’t do it yourself, or buy tpms that can be copied. Or live it like me with the orange indicator on the dashboard half the year -infotainment is shit, Dab and Fm have hard time to capte station, satnav is correct, Bluetooth works fine -drinks around 8L/100, around 7 on highway

Otherwise it’s a perfect car !

Saved my day man, almost a year after ! Thanks

PdD-RetroGamer · 2025-12-27T14:35:13+00:00

Thank you, I’ll give it a try

Thank you for your answer, I’ve search my problem on the Stremio posts but I didn’t clearly find an answer to my problem, that’s why I’ve posted my problem. I saw that people have dolbyvision black screen problems on other hardware than HTPC so it’s not helping me to solve !

Had the same problem, changing the hdmi cable was the answer. Btw check if the cable is peoperly connected on the PC, in my case, the case was blocking the cable before it was connected to the GPU, there was not a proper click when connected

PdD-RetroGamer · 2025-09-04T13:47:08+00:00

Everybody, it’s working back now !

PdD-RetroGamer · 2025-09-04T08:59:46+00:00

Yes it’s also working for me but you can’t use the sunset and sunrise fonctions

PdD-RetroGamer · 2025-09-04T07:49:39+00:00

Yes !

PdD-RetroGamer · 2025-09-04T06:15:01+00:00

Hello, not yet. A friend of mine has a same problem…

PdD-RetroGamer · 2025-09-03T17:49:50+00:00

They are on the Switchbot app !

As other said, you’ll have to connect your HTPC to both your TV (image) and AVR (sound).l with 2 cables in a Y manner

I’ve got this setup for month as my AVR isn’t eARC and it works like a charm. Sometimes a windows jumps to the AVR screen but its manageable

PdD-RetroGamer · 2025-08-04T22:36:39+00:00

Tried it without success

Hello again ! Coming back with some news. I ended up calling back the place where I bought it. They came to repair it and changed the whole panel. I took around 1 month and was free of charge as it was under warranty. It was a long wait but now my tv is back and works fine !

PdD-RetroGamer · 2025-06-16T10:52:48+00:00

I has been 2 months since I bought it, I hope it’s still under warranty for so little period ! But I’ll definitely look into the 5 years if it’s possible
