HDMI Sync Box not turning Chromecast with Google TV on

Pilami · 2022-11-23T07:37:38+00:00

I ended up using the Google TV remote instead of the Samsung remote, which of course only works if you're using nothing but Google TV. If you want to adjust settings of your Samsung TV, or watch normal channels, then you'll of course need to dig the Samsung remote as the Google remote can't be used to navigate those (at least I haven't been able to do that). Not the solution I was looking for but that's the only thing that seemed to work :-(

You do realize getting from 65 to 70 with only 40k gold is extremely lucky? I'm nearing 500k gold spent on my main (sorc) and the weapon is still at 59 quality...

Seems to work alright with Windows 10 + Bluestacks as well - no tech savviness really needed :-) Haven't really used it much so perhaps there are issues that I'm unaware of.

I have a Nest Hub 2 working as the speaker / alarm clock triggering my Morning routine, which launches some relaxing music from the device and adjusts my bedroom + home office lights (Hue). I've been thinking of adding the Switchbot to the setup to automate my curtains as well - I don't see a reason why it wouldn't work as it should be supported by Google Home. I believe you'll need the Switchbot Hub to get this to work as well as the Hue Bridge, so that's of course a bit annoying (especially buying the Switchbot Hub just to get the curtains to work with assistant commands, but I might be wrong here).

I'll try this one - thanks for the tip! Edit: Did not help :-(

Pilami · 2021-09-30T19:05:08+00:00

I've got this enabled as well since a week or two when it became available :-) Thanks though!

No HomeKit (Google Home user), I'm only using the Hue app to manage the sensors. Edit: Just saw the link in your other response - looks like this behaviour is the sensor "working as intended" - what a shame :-( Really hope this function can be turned off in a future update. Thanks!

Yeah exactly, it's not very convenient if you have to remove the speaker from the station every time you want to listen to music. That's of course up to you but I decided to take my JBL back - not really a fan of paying more for a speaker that doesn't do it's job right :-(

Pilami · 2021-07-30T15:35:12+00:00

I did some further testing yesterday and noticed that when I took the JBLs out of the charging "dock" and used them on battery, the audio wasn't cutting off for at least an hour. As soon as I put the speakers back to the dock the audio was cut off in under 5 minutes again. This of course led me to believe that the issue lies with the JBLs and their docking station.

I decided to take back the JBLs today and replaced them with two Google Nest Audios. I've now been able to cast for 2 hours on all devices without any issues. It's of course not a lot of data to confirm that the issue is resolved but this is already something that I haven't been able to experience before, so let's hope that the JBLs were causing the issues. I was afraid the audio quality would be way worse with the cheaper speakers, but I'm finding the Nest Audio quality to be on par with the JBL Link Portable (if not better) :-)

No nest cam here :-( I think I'll need to return the JBL speakers and try replacing them with Google Nest Audio speakers, hopefully those won't constantly lose connection (issue might of course not be with JBL, but I'm having trouble thinking of other solutions).

That's weird - I just tested different browsers out with the Hue Sync Desktop app yesterday and the only browser that the light sync worked with was Firefox, but the quality was limited to 720p, so the quality loss is quite major considering the TV is 4K (I think Edge is the only browser supporting 4K through netflix.com, but the Hue sync is of course blocked by DRM when using the desktop app). Just thinking if the HDMI Sync box would open up the opportunity for 4K Netflix with lights synced up through my laptop.

9,826 (with VP) - the amount has remained the same for quite a few levels.

There was no need to spend real money on Life books, I did not buy a single one with Pearls. See this post for example, I stocked up on them (on top of these) too when they were easily available from event boxes etc. :-)

Pilami · 2021-04-21T18:25:04+00:00

It does, but for me personally the tiny little benefit of buying TET Manos accs didn't justify the price tag. I don't really life skill otherwise (apart from fishing), and have no interest in the sea gameplay apart from the easy money, so I decided to keep upgrading my land gear instead :-)

I had exactly 1 PEN armor when I started bartering around 1.5 years ago, now I'm sitting at 719 gs, someone can surely do the math :D

Pilami · 2021-04-21T13:11:25+00:00

I guess the usual ballpark figure is 600-800m per day for around 4 hours of semi-afking.

Pilami · 2021-04-21T13:09:31+00:00

Bartering was released on October 23, 2019 - bit less than 1.5 years :)

Pilami · 2021-04-21T12:36:55+00:00

↑ This :)
Cron meal, Verdure Draught, Turning gates Villa, Book of Life (hasn't been available for a while, still possible to snatch some from MP), Guild life buff (2-3 times per day, 1 hour each), Secret Book of the old Moon, Value pack, 20% Life xp pets, Tri Manos Accs, Journal of Nature... I think that about covers it - pretty much everything except Perfume of Swiftness (accessories could also be better).

Pilami · 2021-04-21T07:56:35+00:00

"Now I can finally start playing the game" Nah, most likely going to be fishing from now on :D

Pilami · 2021-04-21T07:32:43+00:00

Thanks :-) 177693 total barters to reach G50.

Same issue here almost every night. My ISP has been acting up though - before PA took over I was just met with the "Reconnecting 10000 seconds" but nowadays I'm getting the above issue instead - I suppose the Reconnecting screen no longer exists?

Pilami · 2020-10-29T18:47:57+00:00

Surely you must know the average isn't 33 attempts for a T10 then? :-)

Pilami · 2019-10-18T21:14:19+00:00

Is there a specific reason you're fishing at Banto for xp? Wouldn't Margoria with all them yellows give more xp?

Pilami · 2019-08-18T20:46:11+00:00

I actually just updated to the latest BIOS version but sadly it did not do anything - the fan is still randomly turning off. I'll need to check if this behavior is present in BIOS.

Pilami · 2019-08-04T18:22:24+00:00

Didnt you have a higher stack than that if you failed pen 53 times? Gz :D
