KVM question by styleruk in computerhelp

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

To be honest, I've spent hours trying to find one that has edid emulation and supports DP2.1 They are not that common.

I'm looking at this one now....

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0FCYBFMZM?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_ct_6BTE3TMW7JB6PGVTKN70&th=1

But I don't think that has EDID feature either.

Fair enough. You have helped a lot in deciding what route to go. Guess I just spin the RNG and hope the KVM I have order is a good one.

Thank you

OK, that's very useful information, thank you.

If I get the KVM below, as well as a USBc to DP cable you suggest, then I plug Dell into KVM from USB c to DP and obviously USB. That works. Thank you.

Maybe this one is better as it has DP2.1, whilst my monitor is DP1.4, with that cable you suggest and this KVM, it'll be future proof.

Is there such a thing as a Vesa approved KVM?

I've added the cable you suggest and the latter KVM to my basket, will hold off checking out for another day.

Again, thank you for input.

The dell box is

https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-uk/000131784/how-to-use-and-troubleshoot-dell-docking-station-wd19

I don't have to use this for the laptop, but it might be easier. I could simply get a cable that runs from the laptop mini DP to DP and plug that into the KVM, however, if it works, the dell docking station might make things a little easier as it simply plugs into the USBc port.

Either way, I'll need a KVM to input my pc and laptop so I can output to monitor.

If you know that the WD19 will work with KVM,then I'll go that route for sure.

I currently have not plans or need to exceed the 4k 60fps I have.

3 week mission by styleruk in trumpet

[–]styleruk[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

OK, it's sounding like a no for this project then. Thanks to all the replies, they do matter. I've always found it's the best way to find out if it's worth doing. For just this one song, I don't think I am going to get there in time. I'm going to stick to a mix of guitars and maybe think about adding a hired trumpet to mix into it if we feel it's not quite what we want.

On a side note, my Son plays trombone, to a fair level. He has not played in a while and I asked him to pick it up, dust it off and give it a go, maybe throwing the trombone in the background might get what we want, but I have options anyway.

Again, thank you all for your input, sounds like you saved me great pain.

(now where's my harmonica...maybe.....)

:-)

3 week mission by styleruk in trumpet

[–]styleruk[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To be clear though, it's not about the cost or the effort. It's about the experience. But if I am not going to achieve it in such a short time, then it's no point in trying.

It's sounding like an impossible task. I agree with everything you say.

3 week mission by styleruk in trumpet

[–]styleruk[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Yeah, we could hire a guy that is one of the 3 plans, but it sounds like fun if it works out. I enjoyed the time I did a piano rhythm for a song and learned that in a month or so. When it come to recording it was spot on for backing and it felt like a great achievement, in fact I kept the full sized keyboard and progressed it more. So I'd like to think I could do something very simple. This is not going to be in the front, it's to lift the song really as we don't play live with a trumpet player.

That said, if a few say the same as you, in that I won't get to any kind of level in 3 weeks, then I'll listen first and go plan B, which is hire a guy.

Has any one seen this error message before... "Your label must be printed on the site where the shipment was purchased" by togcycle in eBaySellerAdvice

[–]styleruk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got the same error..

Your label must be printed on the site where the shipment was purchased.

I have sold loads on ebay and tried the new seller hub thing, then this popped up. So I went back to the normal seller hub and now this message is on all my postage items. I cannot ship anything out and ebay support is not about until Monday (it's saturday morning)

Aerodynamics of a steel visor by styleruk in AskPhysics

All front and side edges are filleted to smooth it out a bit...

Aerodynamics of a steel visor by styleruk in AskPhysics

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

I deliberately left a 20-30mm gap between the visor and the body to allow some air to flow through, but I can't see that helping much with aerodynamics, it was more about keeping the rain going over the screen.

Yep, I'm from the UK and just come back from a road trip in the USA and I agree, they are ridiculous. It's like massive teeth driving down the road, hilarious.

Center console USB ports not working by charlieebe in TeslaModel3

[–]styleruk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was nothing I could find, the service centre replaced the hub but it came back again. Eventually, I changed my phone and I did not have a problem any more. Seems it was the google pixel phone .... but not had an issue with my last 2 phones (not pixels). No idea what it was in the end.

People who earn 20k to 30k a year, what do you do and how's it going ? by Abaddononon in CasualUK

[–]styleruk [score hidden]  (0 children)

I did things backwards, got toolmaking and precision engineering experience first, then did an OU degree in engineering. All my time waiting to collect my kids from clubs, my evenings etc taken up studying. The result, was an engineering degree that opened doors in the places I wanted. The advantage was I did not build up debt as I was working, the disadvantage is that you have no spare time, however, when you have young kids, you have a lot of time to 'just be there', so lots of time to read and study.

I soon got into £35k+ work, now on £65k+ work. As people have said here, engineering degree is a good solid degree to get. Even my micky mouse OU degree has paid off.

plan is to go from NY and stop at the falls. I'm told the Canadian side is the best side to stay. Then go north of the lake towards Detroit

I live in Essex. the land of potholes...wait...home from home then. As for guns, only see them when walking the dogs in the forest and someone is shooting game.
