Sony Bravia

Sony Bravia?

My friends bought a new Sony Bravia…everything seems to be fine, except we noticed that while watching a tennis game the other day, everytime the player would hit the ball…the ball would leave a small trace. Also, the white lines in the court were kind of shaky. Any explanations?

That’s called motion blur.
Check the “noise reduction” setting. If it is set to “high” it may cause motion blur. To check this, on the remote press “menu”, then select “settings” . The “noise reduction” option is on the bottom of the settings menu. I suggest using “low”. This is what I use on my Bravia and I have no problem.
The following is a great site for help with fine tuning the Bravia.

Adjustable Tilting

How do you fix the rocking motion in a steering wheel when it isn’t related to tilt/adjustable steering?

I’m assuming that I can remove the steering wheel off of my 1998 Jetta GLX and I’ll see a plastic fitting, gasket, or collar? If I have the steering wheel in the straight ahead position is only when it has play or when I turn the wheel to the left. However, it doesn’t do it when I turn the wheel to the right. What are the different possibilities that could be causing this?

The max freeplay your steering wheel should have is 30mm. You can measure this with masking tape and measuring tape. make a mark on the console somewhere and a mark on the steering wheel. Move the steering wheel to its end of the play and make another mark on the console and measure that.

To diagnose the free play, get underneath the vehicle and grab and pull each component and check for looseness.

The major cause of steering wheel free play is the inner and outer tie rod ends. Check the idler and pitman arms, steering gear mounts, wheel bearings, and steering shaft joints. If all of these are ok then you need a gear lash adjustment. Usually only on recirculating ball designs you can adjust the lash.

These checks can be made by a visual inspection. You might need someone to help you rock the steering wheel back and forth while you feel and listen for any looseness and play in the suspension. Good Luck.

What flat panel monitor would you suggest?

I am looking for a flat panel monitor that is 22 inches. I would prefer the flat panel monitor to be a widescreen and of good quality. I dont know which company makes good flat panel monitor, but I was hoping that somebody knew that.

So what flat panel monitor would you suggest and why?

Thanks!!

I would suggest the ViewSonic VX2250WM (check link below). This is one outstandig flat panel monitor. It is a 22-inch led widescreen with full hd.

The picture quality is so nice with great colors (your eyes wont get tired even if you sit infront of it for hours.

It has the perfect size in my opinion and a very cool design.

A great purchase, no doubt about it.

Hdtv Full

How can I connect a non HD digibox to a full HDTV?

Hi, I have an 40″ Samsung full HD tv, and I want to connect the non HD digibox to the HDTV. What do I need, to get a better picture quality, not necesarily HD? There is no option in getting an HD receiver.
I already connected the 3 RCA (red, yellow, white) AV cable, but the picture is poor.
Thank you

If your digi box has an hdmi out port then use that.

If not, then you are stuck with either RCA or SCART.

My 40″ Samsung does a pretty good at upscaling when connected to my DVD player via scart.

Also, try different picture options in the TV menu, for example, turn the sharpness down a bit, and turn the mpeg noise filter on (in advanced or picture menu).

Note, if you have a medium or poor signal, then the picture will look very poor on a larger screen, which was not very apparent on a smaller screen.

I personally watch non HD freeview through a BTVision box which has a hdmi connection. The image is acceptable.

You should also be sitting a fair distance from the TV, if you are too close (less than 3 metres) you will notice the artefacts. If you can’t sit that far away from the TV then you should have gone 32″ unless you had HD Freeview.

Bulb Light

How does a light bulb light up and emit different colour when it is heated in a microwave?

How does a light bulb light up and emit different colour when it is heated in a microwave? Another question is how does it emit different colours? It first glowed green, and then purple. How is the explanation behind this phenomena?

Not too sure but out of guessing

The light is due to the energy frequency being channeled in the lightbulb from the radiation. More energy leads to different colors….

Im not that sure but the colors follow through

ROYGBIV
Red Orange Yellow Green Blue Indigo Violet
Low———————-Medium—————High
The light itself is shown by energy channeling through something called a filament(Im not sure what its called).

Just my guess
