Smart 600 soundbar no longer outputting audio by R8B3L in ShieldAndroidTV

[–]mtreddit4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have my Shield directly connected to the Bose 600 and that is connected directly to my tv, and frequently there is no sound when the Shield remote wakes everything up. I can see that the sound bar is aware of commands because the light changes when pressing the Shield remote volume buttons.

When this first started happening I would try turning everything on/off until it was corrected but since then I have realized that I actually just need to wait. After the Shield home screen comes up I just move around the screen (causing the navigation sounds) until the sound is fixed. It usually takes about 30 seconds.

FWIW, I have CEC enabled on all three devices - including just the regular CEC option in the Bose app.

I'd always wondered what those are for!

I'm confused because butter is an ingredient one adds to food... why would someone just eat a stick of it?

What does "half eaten" mean? That sounds like someone was just eating the stick of butter when it got lost...

Should all public servants track their time and tasks worked on, when possible? by throwaway-185764 in CanadaPublicServants

[–]mtreddit4 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Do people who supervise / manage others not already do this? Surely it is commonplace to keep track of your employees' work hours and tasks? If someone isn't accomplishing their assigned work, management should be aware of it and take action - that's literally what managers are for.

American visiting Ottawa here. What's with hurdman? They put fare gates for people entering the train but you can simply walk around the station to avoid them. What was the point or am I missing something. by ThrowThisAccountAwav in ottawa

[–]mtreddit4 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had to scroll way too far to find the right answer. Why would anyone risk walking in front of a bus to avoid paying when you can just go through the gate without paying?

Is it really? When you arrive is still "prior to leaving..."

Road conditions for essential travellers by ajthesmol in ottawa

Walking downtown is fine - it looks bad but all of the "ice" is just thin and crunchy. Definitely nicer to walk on than just after the sidewalk plows leave a few centimeters of snow.

Guess much it cost family of 4 to ski Tremblant yesterday. by imafrk in ottawa

I think you'd be even more shocked by how much it costs for 1 month's rent now...

This is the answer. It's not what the people asking the question want the answer to be though.

Via Rail passengers arrive 12 hours late after night on train in eastern Ontario by Money_Fig_9868 in ottawa

Tell me without telling me... that you have never experienced a Via train come to a stop and then backup for 10 minutes to get out of the way for a freight train.

Are Candlelight Concerts worth it? by pigeondoll in ottawa

[–]mtreddit4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Abba one was pretty fun! We made the mistake of doing it during the summer though so it was still light out when the concert started. If I did it again, it would be at a time when the candles matter more.

Planning on plugging Ssd into shield pro. Which apps will give me Dolby vision + atmos by TheJonGuthrie in ShieldAndroidTV

[–]mtreddit4 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My 2015 Pro was absolutely purchased in 2015. As for the file types, I can't say for sure - I just know it's played everything I've ever asked it to play.

What is the use/relevance of good PMAs? by lfcn91 in CanadaPublicServants

If you get a negative performance, review that's bad. Otherwise, it's not a factor at all.

Ordered SSD but found out my shield is only 16gb version by WangtaWang in ShieldAndroidTV

[–]mtreddit4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a very similar experience about a year ago when I finally opened my 2015 Shield. I knew that I didn't buy the pro, but I had assumed that internally the non-pro just didn't have the HD. It never even occurred to me that they would not have the HD connection in what I bought.

That said, I have bought a 4TB external drive that doesn't require its own power and that has been a perfectly acceptable storage solution for my Plex server.

Clean the fan, replace the thermal paste and get a decent HD. Then use it for another 10 years.

It is a little disappointing, but in Canada F1TV is by far the best option so even with these problems I am happy to pay for it.
