I get frustrated when things don’t work the way they’re supposed to.
Our new “new” TV has been working perfectly so far. None of the issues our last one had, which clearly was majorly messed up. No restarts. No powering on by itself. None of that shit.
Well, tonight, it decided to lose contact with our soundbar.
This is new. We’ve had it for less than a week. I traced it back to an issue with a function called CEC, which is where signals are passed back and forth on the HDMI cables to do things like turn things on and off together, change volume, etc. And, as it would have it, play audio from a soundbar.
No idea why it happened so suddenly.
Happy I was able to fix it by unplugging all my HDMI cables and then plugging in only the soundbar…but I’m still pissed it happened in the first place. For no discernible reason. That makes me almost positive it’s going to happen again. Eventually.
Is this TV a piece of shit?
Uuuuugghhhh.
That’s all I have for you tonight. I’m frustrated, which means I just need to be frustrated for a while and go to bed. Sleep it off. Wake up feeling better in the morning. It’s a stupid thing to be frustrated over, but here we are.
Sigh.
Good night!
(Ps – another big quake today, bigger than the one yesterday. It was 100 miles away, so it wasn’t so major in LA, but it was a big one out there in the desert. I hope everyone is okay)
