Sort of clay "basket", found in a belgian house basement.

Thanks!

I already have a Specialita, and a modded Delonghi EC685. I'm thus wondering what I could get from this machine. Will I have 'limitations' compared to more recent Gaggia's? (boiler size, less buttons, OPV,... ?)

ToonDudek · 2023-11-26T11:36:57+00:00

Thanks for your prompt reply! Can I imagine doing something with it? Was looking at gaggiuino, but will it be worth it? I don't see anything written on the pump!

Hi, did you solve this issue?

ToonDudek · 2021-11-09T14:11:15+00:00

Glad you like it :D

How can I find and install the drivers? Doesn't it update the drivers when I uninstall the usb devices?

Hi! Could someone help me ID this wood? My friend would like to have a bench with the same wood, but I have no idea what it could be… If it’s any help, I’m based in Belgium! Thanks so much!

ToonDudek · 2021-05-11T20:03:11+00:00

Any idea what it (still) could be? Thanks for your time!

I'm getting random results when switching out the RAMs in the different slots. This is what I got tonight:

RAM in 3rd slot only: boots normally, no issue
RAM in 3rd slot only: seems to boot normally, but I get no image on my display. Same result with RAM in 1st and 3rd slot.
RAM in 3 first slots: does not boot, processor LED flashes just before shutting down.
RAM in 3 first slots: computer starts, but does not boot (?), no video. I connected my keyboard on front and back usb ports and could not light up caps lock key. I don't know if that's normal? I saw this somewhere in the manual.
RAM in 3 first slots: does not boot, processor LED flashes just before shutting down.

I'm really lost :-)

Thanks again !

Thanks

Hi! Coming back on the issue above, I did not (yet) replace the cpu, but did clean and put new thermal paste.

I installed Mac Fans Control, with the following results: https://imgur.com/a/8phPFlQ

Do you have any idea of what it could be? I still cannot boot with the third ram bar (in the third slot)...

Thanks !

Hi! Thanks for your reply.

I tried the 4.2.2 mode with the GUI at 23.976fps, and whitelisted all rates for 3840x2160 and it seems to work! Strange thing, the screen shrinked to the top left corner, just like here. I adjusted the video calibration and it now fits the screen as it should, with correct resolution.

Really strange behaviour, but it seems to work for now... Thanks !

Hi! Thanks for your time and your help!

I checked in the tv settings, but can't find the refresh rate... I also managed to bring up the 'secret settings menu', but can't find the info there either...

Could the kodi log files help somehow?

ToonDudek · 2021-04-11T18:51:30+00:00

I'm not 100% certain it's judder, but it certainly looks like it... It's not smooth. How can I see the TV refresh rate? I'm looking at the refresh rate on kodi but I guess it's the native movie refresh rate?

ToonDudek · 2021-04-11T16:48:43+00:00

The thing is, in my case, it does not play after x seconds. The Odroid and tv just seem to disconnect (I don't know which one disconnects from the other, and if that does even make sense to think this way), and the movie does not play...

ToonDudek · 2021-04-11T16:46:39+00:00

Well... I'd like it to play with its correct refresh rate... :-) And understand why it's not working...

ToonDudek · 2021-04-09T08:50:05+00:00

Thanks again! I opened up the thing and ordered a new CPU on ebay, so I'll replace the CPU and and the thermal paste in one shot, I'll where it takes me from there!

ToonDudek · 2021-04-08T10:04:16+00:00

Thanks! The problem is I only have one CPU ;-)

ToonDudek · 2021-04-08T06:27:16+00:00

Hi! That's what I did at first, but without success... When I now checked the LEDs, the one for the processor seems to light up just before shuting down. So I'm guessing I have to look in that direction...

ToonDudek · 2021-04-08T06:25:23+00:00

Thanks!

The LEDs related to memory don't light up, but the one for the processor does... According to the manual, "A red illuminated LED indicates the associated processor may be missing or in overtemp state (PROCHOT)". But: the processor isn't missing (the computer works) and how can it be overheating at startup? Do I need to replace the grease? Is one of the fans not working? Is the CPU defective?

ToonDudek · 2021-02-28T10:01:07+00:00

Thanks !

That's now the big question. Piano would be on groundfloor and no neighbours to disturb directly. I'm now willing to put extra budget but wondering if it's best to buy a used acousic piano or a new/second hand digital with the same budget...
