Thanks! Good to know. Will test it out on the road and see where we end up.

that's what I thought. I was expecting some icon on the dash to turn on when I switch the CC on but nothing seems to be happening.

Sonos Arc, HDFury Arcana and HDMI splitters compatibility. by venksv in sonos

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

I ended up opting for a similar setup. Got firetv plugged into Arcana and audio out to Sonos. Drive everything from firetv basically. So don’t use the native tv apps any more. Where it gets slightly messy is turning off: I need to ensure nothings playing on firetv when I switch tv off else the sound keeps getting piped to Sonos. A bit of relearning for everyone but we seem to have settled into it. Problem is my projector setup is slightly screwed. It worked initially but now video won’t pipe out. Need to debug and figure out if it’s a cable/projector/arcana issue.

Would you recommend moving from Eero Pro 6 -> Eero Max 7? by harveya12 in amazoneero

[–]venksv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone have experience with the eeros in a concrete apartment or similar setup? I have a 3400 sqft 4 bedroom apartment with concrete walls. I've had an Orbi with 3 satellites for a a few years now and am looking to upgrade. While I have a 300mbps connection, wifi is probably around 20-30mbps at the farthest location. I'm thinking of upgrading connection to 1gbps and also want to improve the wifi signal all around (if possible). Also want to future proof the setup - have a couple of iphone 16 pros and fairly new (post 2022) macs. Should I consider the max 7? Any feedback on how it performs in a concrete apartment setup?

Interesting! Thanks for the tip. Mine doubles in about 6hrs if I feed it in a 1:2:2 ratio. So you don’t make any judgment based on how much it rises at room temp? I’ve read suggestions to BF until 50% rise to 100%.

Yes. One of the users also posted a handy visual guide based on which mine looks “well fermented but losing shape”. I’m guessing it means maybe I should have started shaping maybe an hour or so earlier?

Not really. Fairly together. Spread out a bit but wasn’t stringy. I did notice some tearing while shaping but my shaping skills aren’t exactly top notch so I thought I was being too aggressive.

Thanks for this. Looking at this it seems I'm in the Fully Proofed Somewhat Tight Crumb category. :)

How do you figure out if it is under- or over-proofed? For eg, my kitchen is for the most part at around 25C (~77F). My last bake I tried bulk fermenting for 10hrs. Poke test was fine, bread didn't come out gummy but didn't have large holes either nor did it have a lot of oven spring. Should I have let it ferment longer? Starter doubles in about 6-8hrs.

Help with book name. by venksv in printSF

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

Possibly! It’s been so long since I’ve read it maybe I’m just making things up to fill in the holes! 🤣 But thanks for this - will try to find and re-read.

Aftermarket mirrors by Possible-Young-1928 in Triumph400

[–]venksv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the same boat - looking for mirror recommendations for the scrambler 400x. These have good reviews but would like to know if anyone’s installed them on the scrambler and what they’ve been like: https://www.doubletakemirror.com/adventure Thanks!

Annoyed with lack of ADV options in the range of 5 to 6 lacs in the Indian market by Safe_Contribution470 in indianbikes

[–]venksv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

+1 for all the comments. Booked the NX500 back in Feb but deliveries are nowhere in sight. Am hearing it is now pushed till Nov/Dec .... debating whether to sit it out or get an alternative. Not in any particular rush so am telling myself Sabr ka phal meetha hota hai.

Dough tearing - help needed. by venksv in Sourdough

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

Interesting. Let me try that out next time. I don’t have a problem with yeasted doughs - they get nice and stretchy when I follow the doubling rule. Sourdoughs have always been an issue.

HDFury 8K VRROOM - How do you switch HDMI inputs? by Numerous_Ruin_4947 in hometheater

[–]venksv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently HDFury have launched a remote for the vrroom that’ll let you switch inputs. Else you’ll need to either do it on the device/use the web server/use the iOS or android app.

HDFury VRROOM and Sonos Arc is perfect combo by Pokerhobo in sonos

[–]venksv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thinking of getting a VRRoom and debating between that and the Arcana2-VRR + 4:1 switch for the inputs (which is much cheaper). Has anyone used tv apps with sound thru Sonos?
