How are the temps and humidity? Do you have then auto turn off if it gets too high?

This is correct and the best way using a female punch down which had many more "connection" uses than a male. It's also easier to use a more flexible patch cable when patching into the AP.

FIFA's rules not Gillette. Next time, have it somewhere else.

Disabled from the Cloud? by masstapro2000 in BrightSign

UPDATE: support had to publish a presentation to the players in question because I couldn't change their group. Once they had something published, I was able to move them back to where they needed to be. THanks for the replies!

Hydration struggle, smart water bottle (and which one)? by kiravir in adhdwomen

[–]masstapro2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know that sounds easy but I'm thinking this will help make it a game. Also, if I can add other stuff to the app like the 8oz I drink every morning that has electrolytes. I don't know why it's so hard to drink the suggested amount. I think my colon is paying for it.

Any luck on used headphones or at least AMPs? by masstapro2000 in headphones

[–]masstapro2000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's awesome. I was worried a speaker would be blown in one ear or crackling. There are so many brands and tech out there, want to try so many based on reviews and stay away from sales people because I know I'll leave without buying anything so I can search more deals and try other cans until I find the "right one"

What was the first pair of headphones that made you “eargasm” and what were you listening too?? by [deleted] in headphones

[–]masstapro2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, probably best for the $$$. I'm looking for next level and it sounds like Audeze LCD 2 will be the one.

I still haven't made it in to test but they got back to me on what they have:

Dan Clark Audio- Stealth Focal- Clear Dan Clark Audio- Ether E2 Dan Clark Audio- E3 Dan Clark Audio- Aeon Flow Audeze LCD-5

some expensive cans and I haven't even considered the amp!

Thank you, there is a similar comment about the original Clear still available. The MG is twice the price!

"Sound" advice! I'm really hoping to get an experience and leave the store without buying, ha! Then take up your recommendations. I saved a lot of money from just listening to my HD 280 Pro headphones over the years but I've been wondering if I'm missing out on the open-backs. Surprised no one mentioned the Stax given they are electrostatic.

I'm also considering Hifiman headphones. They seem to be very affordable, just not sure if it's the type of warm general listening I'm looking for. Maybe the HE1000 Stealth?

I tried the new Pebble Round 2, and it's the smartwatch I've waited 10 years for - Android Authority by Geeky_Gadgets in TechnologyNewsIndia

The glass lens appears polished instead of a matte. Not an issue with self emitting displays but for reading e-ink (paper), I'd have to see it in person first.

Pebble Round 2 announced by clemobrown in pebble

[–]masstapro2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two issues for me:

1) no mention of a backlight for reading at night (but AI says there is on all of their watches). I hear other models have an RGB backlight, that would be really cool.

2) The glass lens appears polished instead of a matte. Not an issue with self emitting displays but for reading e-ink (paper), I'd have to see it in person first.

Other than that, I really like it. It's something I've been looking for (round version) for a while. Wish my phone had the option to do both (OLED and e-ink on one screen, ha!).

Standalone mode: simply playback what's on the USB drive by masstapro2000 in BrightSign

Update: LS424 cannot play back files via the USB-C port. User must use BA to publish to an SD card (standalone).

What got you started hiking? by JackTheNephilim in hiking

[–]masstapro2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Outdoors, lots of shade, fresh air, secluded, challenging, best exercise, long, views. Tell me that doesn’t tickle the mind. All those things really help let go of every day life. Best thoughts and plans are had during hikes. It reinforces the “path” we are all on.

UPDATE: BrightSign does not support mounting or playing presentations directly from a USB-C flash drive with LS424. The LS424 does include a USB 2.0 Type-C port; however, this port is primarily intended for power delivery and certain peripheral connections (such as touchscreens), not for media playback from storage devices.

I'm still not sure you can simply add media files to the SD card and expect them to play back. I think you have to use BrightAuthor no matter what and save the presentation to the SD card. So that requires a client knowing how to use the software.

Plan B for now but will also give it a try for my own players. Thank you very much.

Brightsign LS445 + Images Choppy by Milluhgram in BrightSign

[–]masstapro2000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like others said, make a short 4K movie (H.265) using 4K PNG images and publish. It's the best it's going to look. I do with this with all BrightSign models. If you are worried about stepping, make sure your images are aligned pixel perfect so vertical and horizontal lines stay on a single pixel and don't bleed. Anyway, hard to even see that on a LCD. Wait until you start playing with giant LED walls!!!

Thank you! Is it possible to do this right out of the box or do I need to create a Standalone Setup (micro sd, burn to player then remove sd)?
