greatgooglymoogly - that is beyond even my level of tech-silliness!

Thank you all for the help. I shall probably sit on the roof and revert to semaphore.

Thank you for the replies. I’m not a network bod at all so my testing was pinging the bbc and cnn over a period of 10 mins during problem periods and the responses never went above 30 ms. I also ran the Zoom test for speed test that gave the numbers above. There are no gamers or Xboxes...

I constantly get the “your internet connection is unstable” message and video and audio dropouts. Even with video switched off dropouts occur. M1 Mini Ethernet to router, 9ms ping, 6ms jitter, 360Mbps down, 36 Mbps up. I’m stumped and it’s not a great experience for my clients. Baffled.

Greetings. I currently use Zoom on a Pro plan integrated with Otter for transcription of recording. Zoom has been increasingly unreliable and I’d like to move to something more stable. I’m on a Mac and run ecamm live as the virtual cam. Any suggestions for replacing the Zoom and Otter combo...

I've stumbled across an old guitar course I bought years ago on a dvd that I ripped. It's in the fluxDVD format and I don't think there's any DRM on it. It will play audio and unusable video in VLC and Handbrake will convert it to mp4 but the result is choppy rubbish and the audio comes and...

Greetings I have my office monitors attached to a DACmagic Plus via XLR. The DAC has no sub output on it but could I get away with attaching the sub to one of the phono outputs without blowing anything up? The sub is a small Cambridge Audio Minx powered thingy. thank you

Ignore. Problem solved. There's 30 seconds of your life you won't get back.

I have a new job for a mac mini but am having a deefeeculty. I'm trying to connect a Zoom TAC-2 Thunderbolt interface to the mini. It's Thunderbolt on both devices using an Apple TB2 cable. I've updated the drivers for the Tac-2. There mini shows the TAC-2 as being connected in the 'About...

Lefty - sent you a PM

Thank you kindly, Claire!

Thanks Claire. OS is the latest version of Catalina. The plist is a ‘.’ version so will I need to change permissions on containers and all that stuff I don’t understand? The devices don’t appear in the system report canonically (what a great word) - just as Caldigit TB3. Thanks a lot

I've got a 13in MBP that only has 2 Thunderbolt 3 ports on it so I've got two TB3 docks of the same brand.Is there a way of renaming them as Thunderbolt devices so I can tell them apart? Having identical device names is a pain when assigning devices to apps. I understand their descriptions are...

Thank you for the suggestions. And Lefty, thank you for your kind offer. I’ll try 406v6’s suggestion first and after I’ve cocked that up will move through the suggestions. I have a fantastic head-on photo of my dear old Dad in the cockpit of a CF-100 at altitude that I want to duplicate before...

Does anyone know of a place that can scan an A3 black and white photo to high resolution? All our local places only do up to A4.
