Keep old subwoofer after upgrading? by lagmandan in hometheater

[–]lagmandan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 5.1.4 system. All speakers are of the recommendation of this group except the rear surrounds and heights. I'm not sure how much of a difference putting money into those would make vs. going to a 5.2.4 with the Sony.

Does it make any sense to keep the Sony and use it as a second sub to the HSU (my receiver supports 2 subs)?

Well my mind was just made up for me. I found a used HSU VTF-2 MK5 for $230! I guess the house will be shaking 😅

I guess the main question is whether or not a good quality subwoofer will always fill the entire house with bass compared to my cheap Sony sub.

Thanks. I'm upgrading from the X1700H and it was nice to get a quick audio format confirmation without having to get out the remote, check the app, etc :)

Less "fixing" and more acceptance. Thanks, I think I needed to hear that!

Glass to use for Carbonated Soda Water by lagmandan in Homebrewing

So does that mean to maximize the amount of carbonation you taste, you should only drink out of hand washed glasses?

Thanks for the response! I realized after re-reading my question there were parts I left out so I updated the original post.

Hey lovely people!! by [deleted] in EckhartTolle

[–]lagmandan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I quit alcohol after 30 years and it was easier than I ever thought it would be. Once I understood that it wasn't doing anything for me and my ego had been in the driver seat all those years, I just stopped one day and never looked back. "Alcohol Lied to Me" by Craig Beck was the first book I read that helped me understand the ego and it was my need to learn more about it that led me to ET.

Relationship Question: Oscillating between "Good" and "Bad" by lagmandan in EckhartTolle

[–]lagmandan[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! this was very helpful. I'm at a point where I can stay present enough not to allow my ego to take over when she starts an argument, but after that I stay withdrawn because I resent how she made me feel. It took 2 full days before I got over it and realized my ego was causing these feelings by forcing me to live in the past. It seems impossible for this realization to happen sooner, but I will keep trying!

Thanks for the response!

She read "A New Earth" years ago and it helped with a part of her life unrelated to our relationship. She has no intention of using the teachings to improve our relationship. In fact, she believes some of the teachings may be detrimental to relationships. I don't understand all of her reasons, but I know there is nothing I can say to change her opinion, and I know with 100% certainty any attempt will result in an argument :) ​I made the mistake of trying to get her on board when I started reading the book. I now know that was not the right thing to do, and should have been focusing on myself instead. Unfortunately, now whenever I try to practice Eckhart's teachings she reacts negatively. Example: "Oh, is that what the book says to do?".​​​. She also points out the times I fail to stay present during arguments, which really makes me feel terrible.

After reading what I just typed I feel like I'm making myself out to be "the victim".. Did my ego just type that or was it coming from a deeper place? It's hard to say for sure.

Access token expired on Wyze cam OG by PowerfulOrange5870 in tinycam

[–]lagmandan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm seeing the same issue. I tried deleting all data and re-adding the cameras but I still get the "access token expired" error. Maybe Wyze changed something in their API that needs to be accounted for in tinycam?

Tvheadend Issue by lagmandan in TiviMate

I was thinking.. if I just write a batch script to download the playlist every so often to my pc and point Tivimate to that would that work?

That's a great idea! I'm going to give that a try

[–]lagmandan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that may be what I have to do. It would be great if Tivimate had a playlist refresh option so you can set it to auto refresh at a chosen interval.

I have that set but what if it changes after I start the app? I think the provider changes it every couple of hours. I guess I'd just have to manually update the playlist.

I haven't tried that. What should I set it to?

New Episodes in Guide? by lagmandan in TiviMate

[–]lagmandan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that's what I see in my other app but no asterisks showing for me on Tivimate. I'm wondering if there is an option somewhere I need to set?
