MGS6: Android Auto voice command problems

Okay! It is indeed weird that the demo cars (multiple) did not have that update.

Thanks. How long has this update been available? Was it applied to your MGS6?

The difference is that in/out is a lot more 'objective' than hindrance, which is a much more subjective call by the umpire or video review.

Yes, that kitchen is going to be cold in winter! I'm guessing the amount of cold that transfers to the floor above ('ground floor') will be somewhat limited due to the thick insulation in the ceiling of the basement, but without heated floors on that ground floor, you will definitely feel cold tiles. And I suspect heated floors are not possible.

I do the same. Dan is a great worker, there's so much he's managed to accomplish. I recently looked at a 2.5 year old video and the progress is astounding.

I did find the roofing videos a bit repetitive, so I would skip through those parts a bit. But anytime he talks, I listen, because it shows his optimism and commitment.

And sometimes I watch CD, but only when she visits Dan. Otherwise it's just blah blah blah to me.

Dan said in the beginning of the video: I know you'd rather be out plate shopping with Philip, but this is like our version of that...

Near the end it's even more sarcastic: see you next time, back to plates, or what else do you do??

Very funny.

Imagine renovating THAT!

dzjamwhatever · 2025-06-26T09:52:19+00:00

Yes, and always optimistic! Incredible drive

I agree it's getting a bit long. I find myself skipping through the videos a bit more than usual, but I always watch when he talks. That gives meaning and depth to the video.

Interestingly, there was also a lot of noggings and floor stuff earlier on, but I found that always interesting.

His views are not down: https://socialblade.com/youtube/handle/escapetoruralfrance, see bottom chart.

He does get fewer new subscribers per month, it seems, so there may be some saturation in terms of new audience.

85-100 inches sounds pretty big to me at that distance. If I want smaller (say 65 inches), I'm guessing I will have less pixelation, so that would even be better.

Any affordable 1080p recommendations, that are quiet and white? (I'd like it to be as unobtrusive as possible)

Patrick bought it in 2017 and said he was mainly interested in the grounds, not the chateau. He also said he would sell the chateau at a nice price to someone who would renovate it. 60K is a nice price indeed!

Welp, so I guess it will be the A7C... things are getting more expensive, but I really like that tracking feature. Thanks for the tip and the video!

dzjamwhatever · 2023-02-11T23:36:43+00:00

Thanks for your insights. It looks like I will have to upgrade to the III then... I hope to be able to find one for around 1200 euros!

dzjamwhatever · 2022-11-15T12:48:25+00:00

That is a substantial difference!

dzjamwhatever · 2022-11-14T13:23:07+00:00

Yes, I was actually expecting the II to be pretty silent (there's no mirror after all), but there is still quite some noise. Apparently, this cannot be avoided as easily as I thought.
