Shocking OLED Screen Issue!

Hi I have just discovered a shocking issue with a 2016 lg oled b6. (picture attached: 4939-B57-D-F969-43-CC-9030-36-F02-DEB82-CA ) There is a terrible diagonal line across the screen that primarily shows up on blue backgrounds from what i have tested so far. It can be seen on other colour backgrounds but is much less visible. On a blue background it appears black/brownish, on a white background it is intensified bright white and less prominent. I have...

Split Screen Adaptor

I am looking for a cheap adaptor that will take 4 different Video Inputs (Composite Video) and output to a single Split Screen Image, again Composite Video. I have used them before with 4, 8 or 16 inputs, all via BNC Connectors and the single or sometimes Double Output, again via BNC. Powered by 12v from a transformer. It does not Amplify (well I don't think they do), it just merges the Inputs into a Split Screen view. I can't for the life in me remember what they are called. from AVForums https://ift.tt/2YhkxqE

Best TV for SD and DVD viewing

Hi I know it's probably been asked loads of times but I need a new TV (43" max) that will be good for watching mainly SD and DVD quality material with the occasional Blu Ray. I know the TV manufacturers are pushing 4K and UHD but I (and I think a lot more besides) still watch DVD's and vintage TV on freeview channels like Talking Pictures, Dave, Drama etc. are there any TV's out there that will fit the bill ? from AVForums https://ift.tt/2T1ZBhO

The entire sound experience with this LG model has been less than stellar. Frequent needs to reset AV/Settings, plus it feels like some options are being lost after an extended power off.

Protests over Hong Kong's extradition bill continues

From an airport sit-in to violent clashes in a suburban area to aimless marches through busy shopping districts, protests in Hong Kong does not seem to die down. Tens of thousands of demonstrators have taken over streets near Sai Wan and Causeway Bay on Hong Kong Island. Hong Kong has seen eight consecutive weekends of anti-government and pro-democracy protests against a proposed bill that would allow people to be extradited from the city to stand trial in courts in mainland China. It is ranked as one of the safest cities in the world but recent protests have been followed by violent clashes between demonstrators, police and masked men wielding sticks suspected of being criminal gang members. Meanwhile, UAE has issued travel warning for Hong Kong. It has advised visitors not to wear black or white.   from DDNews Feeds https://ift.tt/2GBsE6H

Russian police cracks down on protestors

Police in Moscow have arrested more than 1,000 people Saturday following an opposition protest rally in the Russian capital. Protestors demanded that city authorities to reverse decisions excluding key opposition candidates from local body polls. The protest was the latest in a wave of demonstrations demanding fair local body elections. Earlier authorities had disqualified over 30 opposition candidates from contesting the polls, stating that they had failed to collect enough signatures to stand. The rally came a week after the capital's biggest protest in years, when several people called on officials to reverse rulings and allow opposition activists to stand for the city council in September. Around 3,500 people took to the streets for the unauthorised rally, according to official figures. from DDNews Feeds https://ift.tt/2JVXqt8

Kargil victory was symbol of India's might: PM Modi

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday paid tributes to the heroes and martyrs of the Kargil war 20 years after they pushed back Pakistan from Indian soil in the Drass Sector. Expressing his gratitude, Prime Minister Modi addressed the audience and paid homage to the brave hearts who laid their lives in service of our motherland. Saluting them, the Prime Minister hit out at Pakistan for its duplicity on the issue of Kashmir and the proxy war from across the border. He said its ill intentions were defeated in 1999 when India gave a befitting reply at Kargil. Without naming Pakistan, Prime Minister Modi said the country is still smarting from the defeat 20 years ago and continues to fuel terrorism in India. Its aim is to destroy peace and tranquility and create an atmosphere of instability in the country. But our brave hearts continue to foil these attempts. PM appealed to all to unite against terror.

E-cigarettes are 'undoubtedly harmful', says WHO

The growing popularity of e-cigarettes, battery-powered devices that enable users to inhale addictive nicotine liquids, has raised fears among policymakers worldwide of a new gateway addiction for young people. While vaping exposes users to lower levels of toxins than smoking, the World Health Organization said the devices still pose "health risks" to users. "Although the specific level of risk associated with ENDS (electronic nicotine delivery systems) has not yet been conclusively estimated, ENDS are undoubtedly harmful and should therefore be subject to regulation," the WHO said in a new report on the global smoking epidemic. There was also "insufficient evidence" to support claims of their effectiveness in assisting smokers trying to quit conventional cigarettes, it said.

Speakers - really basic question

Hi, Hope I'm not asking the obvious, so please go easy, Been out of the Hfii game for a long while but recently retired and looking at upgrading tv, hifi etc. I've had a pair of Mission 753s for about 20 years and always been happy with them What I don't know is have speakers progressed in quality similar to say TVs ? If I were to spend a round a grand for speakers would I notice much difference from my 753s ? Any advice appreciated from AVForums https://ift.tt/2XHu9ep

Philips TV 55pus6162/12 screen upside down

Hi all, Since a week ago, the picture of my Philips tv 55pus6162/12 is inverted, upside down, on all sources, all menus, even on the philips logo when powering on. I tried performing a factory reset, a firmware upgrade through usb,.. Nothing changed this situation. The service menu (062596) has no (self explaining) invert option. Any idea? from AVForums https://ift.tt/2yfG83G

Strange thing on eBay

Just looking at eBay using the browser (Not the app) on my Android phone. Noticed a section called My Garage, never seen it before. Strange/disturbing thing is that it already populated with a single car - which matches my car down to make, model, body type, fuel type and engine size. I didn't create this record nor have I ever bought anything online for the car let alone on eBay. So how has it got this information? Cheers, Nigel from AVForums https://ift.tt/2M9WRNL

LG OLED55B9 vs C9 Differences

Hi Folks, I'm planning to upgrade to one of the above as and when they're out.. however, despite reading some initial info on here and now using the product comparison tool on LGs own website, I can find hardly any differences, aside from the physical difference of an a7 vs a9 processor they don't appear to do anything different in terms of what they process. Thus, i'm struggling to understand why I'd want the C9 over the B9... Can anyone help?? TIA from AVForums https://ift.tt/2SJxCTQ

England collapse sets up Ireland Test thriller at Lord's

Ireland have the chance to pull off one of the biggest upsets in Test history after another England batting collapse on Thursday set the scene for a thrilling finish at Lord's. When lightning flashes and rain cut short the second day's play at 6:10 pm local time in a match scheduled for four days rather than the usual five for a Test, England were 303-9 in their second innings, a lead of 181 runs. That represented a colossal improvement on their humiliating first-innings 85 all out but once again their batsmen struggled ahead of next week's first Ashes Test. England had been well-placed at 171-1 second time around, a score built on a second-wicket stand of 145 between nightwatchman Jack Leach, who made 92, and Test debutant Jason Roy made 72.   from DDNews Feeds https://ift.tt/2YjTxSD

Sky Q a complete waste of money.

Was promised lots of shows in UHD and its just sky one garbage and stuff that's on amazon and Netflix, but hdr on those apps, not sky. Utterly pointless upgrading from sky HD imo, picture is identical, menus are worse, no hdr so apps are useless. Wouldn't mind if it was cheap. Turns out it can't even do YouTube in 4k either. Will try and sent it all back tomorrow but bet they wriggle out of it. Oh and the sales person told me there was a ton of stuff and 4k channels with documentaries etc. from AVForums https://ift.tt/2LE0U5L

Looks like Vin Diesel isn't quite done with this franchise yet. A fourth entry is currently being mooted by Vin following the completion of a new script by .David Twohy The franchise began with the effective low key Pitch Black, continued with a much higher budget Chronicles Of Riddick, and the last entry (and third instalment) Riddick, came out in 2013.
