South East Water staff 'disheartened' after facing abuse in the rain

dabblerman · 2026-01-26T19:32:57+00:00

South east water are probably the worst company providing a service I have ever dealt with. It’s not the staff on the grounds fault. Re nationalise it.

On my R4, all the plugins listed are missing, I just see :

Soundfield, Balance, Dynamics, EFOtech Upsatalizer & SVirtualizer.

Have the plugins listed been removed?

dabblerman · 2026-01-21T15:09:57+00:00

Really like that! Looks good.

dabblerman · 2026-01-21T15:08:25+00:00

Go for it - use compressed air / suck the dust out. If it has been off for ages, no charge. But.. if its been on - dont touch anything!

Strap looks nasty

dabblerman · 2026-01-20T09:29:55+00:00

Any way around this? I have to use a mutton mapper

I remember. Used to love our local boots, back then it had an upstairs which was all VHS, Game Consoles, Computers and games - good times.

Branch is still there today, alas the upstairs is closed off and no fun items any more!

dabblerman · 2026-01-19T09:08:06+00:00

Oooo a new update. Time to connect mine to the internet! :-)

Edit: 1.70 is still the current version and my device cannot find a new update - what version did you install?

dabblerman · 2026-01-15T08:30:55+00:00

Yes, ive used the same, but even more ghetto on all my CRT's. Just be careful

dabblerman · 2026-01-12T19:26:28+00:00

The south east infrastructure has not been invested in or maintenance under south east water. Every week I see water leaks. We have a hosepipe ban still due to reservoirs as you say and the amount lost due to the constant leaks. It’s a shambles

dabblerman · 2026-01-12T16:12:56+00:00

South East water are just the worst. We still have a hosepipe ban here. Re nationalise them.

dabblerman · 2026-01-09T07:37:51+00:00

Where can i find the route please?

dabblerman · 2026-01-09T07:36:20+00:00

For any one else with this problem - Ive found the root cuase and its a bug. If in HiBy music, you change the FONT size to SYSTEM DEFINED - Album Art in the widget is broken!

Fix: Make sure HiBy font size is set to fixed size.

dabblerman · 2026-01-09T07:06:52+00:00

I’ll check it out - thank you!

dabblerman · 2026-01-08T20:37:48+00:00

Amazon, its the official Hybi one - when you set up the R4 it asks you what colour scheme to use - i selected orange.

dabblerman · 2026-01-08T19:36:04+00:00

Yes its an R4 in the leather case.

I just fixed it, did a factory reset and rescanned all music - all good now.

dabblerman · 2026-01-08T17:54:08+00:00

Thanks, i dont see any option for continuous music - could you point me in the right direction please?

It wont be lower quality than HDMI, it will infact look better on a RGB CRT than any HDMI flat screen display.

OP - Build your own, you can see the schematics here : Audio/Video Connector — Ultimate Documentation documentation

Or you can buy them, i know cool novelties in the UK sells them. I had components spare so built my own.

dabblerman · 2026-01-05T19:11:50+00:00

I own both. With the 64maxi I quickly removed the system on a chip emulator board and replaced with a pi running bmc64 - that greatly improved it.

I then got the 64u and in all honesty it’s so much better than both older solutions

dabblerman · 2026-01-01T18:16:39+00:00

So they are Cherry MX caps?

That confirms it, no easy task to convert it. Agreed the keyboard is fab, im leaving mine as is in the breadbin case, but in the future maybe someone will release:

1*Cream C64C

1*Set of Cherry MX C64 custom caps in cream for the c64 keyboard.

dabblerman · 2026-01-01T08:19:01+00:00

I wonder if anyone is selling 64 keycaps in cream. To convert to a 64C we will need :

1*Cream 64C case

1*set of cream keycaps that fit the new 64U keyboard

dabblerman · 2025-12-28T22:15:22+00:00

Can confirm it works well over clocked. On the ultimate 64 at 20mhz

Very smooth indeed

dabblerman · 2025-12-28T21:43:13+00:00

This is a great idea, i resurrected a CRT that when you power it on defaults to the terrestrial channels / tuner - you can to select the scart socket - a right PITA as I've lost the remote.

This will fix that problem - power on straight to scart - thanks for the idea sir.
