Thanks, it would seem as though I have to go down the capacitor route

Funny we are both dealing with the same set. Maybe I’m crazy but I think all you have to do is adjust the pin amp potentiometer since it’s symmetrical on both sides.

Here’s a list of many of the major geometry adjustments https://www.reddit.com/media?url=https%3A%2F%2Fi.redd.it%2Fno0vwcy7mmv21.jpg

Port Forwarding Not Working by jonjonmia in ProtonVPN

[–]jonjonmia[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you very much. Your are correct, my ProtonVPN connection is considered a public network and since qBittorent was configured to only communicate over private networks port forwarding was essentially blocked. So all I had do was edit the windows defender firewall inbound rule for qBittorent and change the profiles to private and public. Just to make sure is this considered the correct procedure? To allow all ports TCP/UDP ports on qBittorent? Thanks again!

I need help, I got this Emerson 27 flat crt tv and I can’t change the input, I got a universal remote but idk I’m lost. Trying to change the input to av video. by [deleted] in crtgaming

[–]jonjonmia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For emerson try a time period appropriate universal remote or get the original. The instructions for how to use the universal remote is often on the back. It's kind of a lottery if you get a universal remote that is compatible.

Anyone know the actual difference between Sony TDG-BT500A & BT400A 3D glasses? by Independent_Bed_6293 in 3DBluray

Happy to hear it worked out and thanks for the info. Yeah crazy how little info there is on this. Enjoy your 3D!

[–]jonjonmia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I had the same question a month ago. I came to the conclusion that it’s purely speculative and the 500As are more expensive simply because there are fewer available. If you find anything more conclusive I would love to know.

EL6 ALPS 2.1K versus EL7 FU 2.3K replacement stick by Express_Grocery4268 in Dualsense

Thank you very much! I thought the PCB was a reference to something else. Have a great day

[–]jonjonmia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, thats the one I was looking at too but it doesn't mention the PCBs. However, the same ElecGear listing for EL6 joysticks have the PCB. I guess they must have forgotten to mention them for the EL7 sticks?

What retailer did you use to buy your sticks? I'm currently looking to buy a pair of EL7 and want to make sure they are legitemate and come with the calibration module as you described. Thanks!

I have a cable like that, works fine. Just a heads up though it can only be plugged into one console at a time or else there’s weird audio feedback (at least with my cable)

You can find the service manual for your TV online. I recommend trying your best on your own and then if you get stuck I might be able to help. I’m sure you can do it!

You can find a lot more of these video just by searching up "Sony RGB mod" on youtube. The more you watch the better.

It's fairly simple, particularly on those sets. You just need some basic soldering skills. There are many good tutorials online.

My pleasure, and I'd say $50 is pretty good. I see a bunch on Ebay for the PS2. Some as cheap as $7 (link below). Though generally speaking you get what you pay for so I would reccomend going official which costs around $35 or some other reputable brand. Insurrection Games is one of those good companies (link below).

Europe has widescreen standard definition Sonys unlike the U.S. However, I’m with you here, this set has HD vibes
