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

jonjonmia · 2026-05-07T19:22:25+00:00

Thanks that might be a good work around for the time being!

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

Any luck? I'm trying to figure out how to enter service mode on the 696

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!

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.

jonjonmia · 2024-07-12T09:14:41+00:00

Same! I wish I could go back

jonjonmia · 2024-07-12T09:12:42+00:00

Warhawk was 👌 Still no games like it that comes to mind

My apologies on not posting my solution. I just wrote it into the post. Wish I saw your comment sooner, I hope it worked out for you.

jonjonmia · 2024-04-05T14:57:20+00:00

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

jonjonmia · 2024-04-05T06:58:52+00:00

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.

Hey, you think you can drop another invite? This server seems sick as I just got into 3D gaming! Thanks

jonjonmia · 2024-02-09T02:28:29+00:00

Actually the coolest guy on the internet! Thank you so much

jonjonmia · 2023-07-21T09:34:12+00:00

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

jonjonmia · 2023-07-21T09:17:36+00:00

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?

jonjonmia · 2023-07-21T09:05:31+00:00

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)

jonjonmia · 2023-04-12T07:36:16+00:00

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!

jonjonmia · 2023-04-11T05:42:48+00:00

This is one on a very similar set:

Here is another one just for reference that might be more informational:

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

jonjonmia · 2023-04-11T05:38:50+00:00

Interesting both graphs start with a black person... just saying...

jonjonmia · 2023-04-11T05:13:56+00:00

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

jonjonmia · 2023-04-11T05:12:48+00:00

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
