  1. Sorry to dredge this up , it will be the last time as it's going out the window lol I got the TV stripped back again, and I was wondering if these bits are integral to it working lol that might have a baring on things. It's missing two on one side
  2. I'll have to have another look during middle of the week i only thought to do it as I was getting a few other symptoms on the screen so knew it may of needing messing with, I was getting what looked like slates in middle of the screen, then the colours were a bit rubbish during the course of the day / night. Maybe it might be a failing board which I in turn have sped up its failure ?
  3. Well I spent today stripping it down, got tape in the channel of light bit. Built back together, tuned on for a minute, all fine then left room came back and .......
  4. I'm in England, but not sure what chains of car shops you have, I know we aren't too dissimilar. Normally for a budget door set some Fli or JBLs (lots of models but for wallet friendly eBay have the GT series) go well with stock equipment. Bit more premium but a lil under powered by stock stereo are Vibe, or even the sound stage JBL. Alpine are always on offer in car shops here and are a little lighter on the ears. There are however more and more choices and more and more variations on what work for some ears and not on others, it's best if can go in a shop where they have them set up and can max them out before you buy. I hope this is of some help to start you on your way.
  5. We have got down to a choice of two on offer in a local store , almost the price of the budget one , better image and can handle daylight. They are having a move about but have a demo area so hopefully can decide on one. They are Epson (forgot the model) Optoma h183x Im wondering if any one has the optoma and have any pictures of it up and running and in daylight viewing please thanks in advance
  6. They fancied a change and a couple of their more frugal friends went with one of the budget ones doing the rounds on YouTube and had good feedback, but parents room is bright. We have a few electronic shops that try and shift viewsonic/ Epson too which I'm trying to steer them towards. They aren't too keen on oled and had bad experiences with some of the big brands for the Led/LCDs. Bit hard to explain as they are stubborn and not given a proper 100% reason why. Also what sucks I'm in Europe and they don't the mice TCls etc they have the couple of models off the flagship
  7. Good evening, I'm looking for a projector for my parents to have in the lounge (to replace a TV and have blu rays on), and I've done some research and know I'd need a high lumens one iirc 3000 +. Their room has big windows and glass doors so have lots of natural light that doesn't really go until 7/8 pm and they don't want black out curtains. Does anyone know if the ~ 200 dollars / pound ones work in day light conditions or maybe midrange about the 4/500 mark? 4k is a pipedream for them at the moment with it still being around 900. So testing water and seeing if they like it first before doing them 4k. Does anyone have any recommendations and maybe pictures or a video of it running in daylight/ slightly brighter then ambient light conditions please
  8. Would the above or the Av board be to blame, as I keep getting cable and satellite drop out and also occasionally (last couple of months) screen when either heated up or cold, will switch the picture off to blank screen I then press source or a couple of channel up presses brings image back.
  9. Funny you mention that, they were going to and as far as I know they didn't, think that or a new av/motherboard was mentioned but not changed. Maybe you hit the nail on the head I'll cost up a tcon and see. Thank you
  10. Hi yeah from a Samsung store (shut down now) It only had the screen swaps when it went in (the company was a bit ropey so may of done unnecessary things too lol) Has any one done a strip down of a tv LCD screen that's that size on here ? I read and tempted as TV technically doesn't owe me anything now. I've also read, it maybe wrong tho, that the ueJS8500 had some sort local dimming and the edge lighting, so could it be a board playing up ? Or is it chuck up some nice bias lighting and ignore it ?
  11. Good morning, Just a quick blarb to show you where I'm at. I have a Samsung (unfortunately curved) 55inch JS8500, that has had a few screen replacements in its history. (They had varying degrees of success) I wasn't happy with the 5th and final one (so the insurance paid out and let me keep the TV.) I had a box about 3/4 inchs around the screen and bad light bleed in the corners, that I have lessened. I have taken the back off , slackened the white plastic screws/ taken off the front bezel and taped the inner edge and it's softened the effect. However I am still left with an outline box around the frame, it shows up on some blues and Grey's currently, before I fettled with the screen it was on all colours. So what I'm asking then I guess, would the attached be the backlight channels that might need some blocking behind the panel or is this banding / retention? (The YouTube app pictures help with showing it on my phone camera)
