    Jokes... Heard any good ones lately?

    Regrettably not; not to the estimated 23% to 35% ... figures vary ... of the 'true believers' at least. They're in it for the long haul. As Trump said himself at a press conference, "I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody, and I wouldn't lose any voters, OK?". It's one...

    Jokes... Heard any good ones lately?

    Humpty Dumpty, a laugh a minute. You just know that these comedy writers are secretly praying for a Trump victory. He's comedy gold.

    I’m in the hospital

    I'm at a loss for words Swerd ... a first for me. But knowing you like I do, that cancer doesn't stand a chance in hell. Don't go gentle into the night my friend. Keep up the good fight. Resist!

    Samsung TV connected to AVR not outputting audio

    Wanted everyone to know that everything is peachy keen with TOSLINK optical cable, from the ‘for what it’s worth’ department. For semi-modern Samsung TV / Yamaha RX-A3070 owner’s, just connect one end of the TOSLINK optical cable to the Samsung optical out on the rear panel of the TV and the...

    Samsung TV connected to AVR not outputting audio

    Well, don’t I feel like a moron. DOH! I had forgotten that I had an Amazon Prime stick in HDMI input port AV 3 on the Yammy 3070 here in my office and now that I think about it, I also have a spare Prime stick for the living room TV. So I’ve brought myself a temporary reprieve from the...

    Samsung TV connected to AVR not outputting audio

    That may be so but there is also the age of the features/options of the Samsung 49” Q6F [OLED] and the Yamaha RX-A3070 AVR to consider here in my office, where I'm doing the initial testing. If it all goes well, then I'll roll it out to the living room (a new 5 month old Sony XR-6580CK (65''...

    Samsung TV connected to AVR not outputting audio

    TLS I'm mostly using 10', or less (6 feet), HDMI cables throughout the house, on 3 separate 2.2, 5.1 (2) systems. When I actively started upgrading my A/V sound system(s) in 2012 ... luckily I found & signed up with Audioholics at the time ... that was something i became aware of, not to get...

    Samsung TV connected to AVR not outputting audio

    Well since I can't fight Samsung technology on my TV audio out specifically, I just purchased a 15' TOSLINK cable, as recommended. If it works, and I'm praying it will, I can purchase another TOSLINK for my newish Sony TV in the living room which is connected to an oldish Yamaha RX-A3040, which...

    Samsung TV connected to AVR not outputting audio

    What a mess. When I did connect the HDMI cable to the Yamaha ARC port ... there is no eARC port as you previously stated ... things really went crazy. The AVR would just power off every 3 minutes or so for no discernible reason. TLS Guy I wish a new, more modern AVR was in my future but...

    Samsung TV connected to AVR not outputting audio

    Thanks guys. Some good info there. It's a Samsung 49” Q6F [OLED], so it's relatively new, and yes it has an HDMI eARC connection. I'm assuming ... I know, I know, don't assume ... that if I run a HDMI cable from the TV's eARC connection to an open HDMI input on the AVR I should be golden. Or...

    Samsung TV connected to AVR not outputting audio

    Can you help a brother out? My Samsung TV is connected to my Yamaha AVR RX-A3070 (HDMI 1 to AV2) from my set-top box and it works perfectly fine. But if I access Amazon Prime/Disney/Paramount/etc. on the TV, I'm not getting any audio output. What am I missing? Do I have to connect another...

    NFL 2023

    Well, as they say, 'on any given Sunday' ... or in this case, Thursday. Dan Campbell seems to have the franchise moving in the right direction, after decades of incompetency by the front office. Plus I usually cheer for the underdog anyway and anyone playing the Chiefs nowadays is an underdog...

    Medicare For All

    Really? In a timely fashion? :D This year alone, on average, I've been told ... regrettably I have quite a few health issues ... that there's a month to two month's waiting list to see a Plain Jane internal medicine doctor just to refill some standard maintenance med's. When I requested a...

    Medicare For All

    All I know is that in 2012 my monthly insulin dosage was $128, now it's up to $342. For more of a perspective my dad was paying $16 bucks a month for his insulin in 2007, right before he died. The health care system in this country is broken, mostly by the manufacturers, in conjunction with...
