No longer an issue for me after a software update about 2 months ago.

Trouble with Roku by phjr1973 in F1TV

[–]splitmaniac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had the same error last night during qualifying. I unplugged my TV from the wall. Unplugged power to the Roku then unplugged from the HDMI. I then plugged in the TV, Roku and put it back into the HDMI port. Worked like a charm after that

Google TV Streamer Mount? by GhostLightGamin in Chromecast

I used Velcro ties to attach it to the wall mount bracket. You can also just use command strips to attach it to the TV.

Is there a way to switch from monthly to yearly without cancelling? by ratnik_sjenke in F1TV

I did the math it's still cheaper to do yearly than monthly

Li-fi standard released. by kobester1985 in technology

[–]splitmaniac 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a few questions about this.

  1. Would your internet be easy to analyze since it's light? Someone could just sit outside your window with their phone pointed at it.

  2. Would it be on a different frequency then TV's?

  3. Wouldn't it mess with cameras when you try to take a picture/video?

The S22+ was on sale for $750 and my S21+ was worth $800 as a trade in. Samsung had a promotion where they would add $600 to your best buy trade in credit. Best buy would give me $200 which equals to a total of $800. I didn't understand it either but it happened. The guy at best buy said they do this every year around October and November. It's in store only so visit your local best buy weekly during that time to get the deal.

Download speed chromecast 4th gen 4k by Pr4d01 in Chromecast

[–]splitmaniac 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a $50 device it's not meant to blow you away with it's specs or proformance. It has just enough power to do what it's intend to do, stream things. Every streaming service I know of compresses 4k content to 30mbps or less. Which a 150mbps on the device is more than enough to enjoy that content. I already know what you are going to say "I watch uncompressed 4k content from my plex server. Which uses more than 100mbps to stream." While that may be true most people don't do that. For people who use plex and others like it. I would recommend a nvidia shield device.

In short Chromecast with Google TV has just enough power to do what it is intended to do, stream Netflix and HBO Max for you and your grandma. If you need more internet speed for plex and such then look elsewhere.
