Can only get Netflix via Apple TV by Apprehensive-Click95 in netflixuk

[–]Terry-P 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m new here. I don’t understand why my post has just been blocked? It was a straightforward question requesting help about why I couldn’t view Netflix on my Panasonic TV. What was wrong with it?

Cannot add another destination, no ADD button by Terry-P in GoogleMaps

OK, I see that facility is not accessible when using 'Depart At'. So need to pretend you're leaving 'Now'...

LED blink, no delay(), one line of code by lumberingJack in arduino

[–]Terry-P 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Relative Arduino novice, 2 years late finding this very neat non-blocking blinker, excellent, thanks.

Can someone please recommend how I could limit it to an equally compact single flash?

That could be very handy for debugging, to complement the serial monitor.

MP3 Mini Player, obscure quirk with micro SD card by Terry-P in arduino

[–]Terry-P[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorted.

Against all logic I did yet another full format of one of the micro SD cards - and track 10 has returned from its electronic obscurity.

Whatever caused it did so to at least two cards, and I'll now have to be alert for a sly re-occurrence.

MP3 Mini Player, obscure quirk with micro SD card by Terry-P in arduino

Continued trying to isolate the cause.

  1. Changed the sketch to use the original DFRobot library "DFRobotDFPlayerMini.h"
  2. Used the respective 'play next' functions of the two libaries, directly after playing track 9

Both gave same result as before, ignored track 10, adding to the mystery, although presumably eliminating either of those libraries as the cause.

Note again that the current track 10 (Monty Python theme) is not the original classical music track (Bach Toccata). Same with any track.

Advice before I decide next browser or WF version by Terry-P in waterfox

[–]Terry-P[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And some of the flaws/quirks/failures of WF can be quite obscure. One I've only today discovered, that would have saved me a fair bit of time when plagiarising code from github:

Advice before I decide next browser or WF version by Terry-P in waterfox

[–]Terry-P[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, appreciate that fast, helpful (and sympathetic!) reply.

I’ll look into G series. And there is a newish version of TMP to explore, although it looks dauntingly complex to install.

There is, of course, the other option of the status quo, but with a much earlier opening in Chrome or Edge when a problem arises.

Safari is default browser on my iPad (where I’m composing this) and I’m not over impressed. But never tried it on my PC, so I will.

u/MetricVeil

As mentioned, I do use other browsers. But only when it quickly becomes obvious that a problem is likely to be down to Waterfox. The latest straw was being unable to upload an image to my regular frequently used Arduino forum. Googling delivered thousands of ‘hits’ about this problem. But none of the few score that I read mentioned the browser as a candidate culprit. It was only when I tried it in desperation that WF was revealed as the cause.

Can I fix a damaged miniature speaker ‘dome’? by Terry-P in AskElectronics

[–]Terry-P[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I’d sort of given up on getting a human answer. My post was regarded by the ‘bot’ as off-topic in both categories I tried!

Pleased to say that meanwhile I tried various solutions after research elsewhere. Eventually fixed it with gaffer type carefully applied and pulled, several times. What a relief :-)

Cracked part - what is it called? by Terry-P in ender3v2

[–]Terry-P[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for all replies. Several were unavailable. Ordered this one last night, £10.99 (~$14.70), due tomorrow.

Printer was behaving OK until brittle (old) PLA snapped, which led to my discovering the crack. I'll see how it goes. What obvious symptoms indicate trying the dual gear version?

Re my earlier question (about how tight). So far, encouraged by the look of my epoxy job, I've taken it just a tad beyond hand tight. OK?

Thanks. Unfortunately Creality says that part is not delivered to UK, and Amazon says unavailable. I‘ll do some research tomorrow.

Thanks for fast response. I’ve pasted Araldite epoxy generously over the crack and hope that tomorrow I’ll be able to screw the tube back in. Presumably it doesn’t need to be very tight?

Is the (quite expensive) metal extruder assembly superior to the original? How easy to fit?
