CHANNEL STATEMENT: This is a channel about my relationship with stuff. We all need to have a better relationship with the stuff in our lives - we have too much of it, and most of it’s junk. If nothing else I hope you take away with you an interest in the stuff in your life - a curiosity for how it’s made - why it’s good or bad - and perhaps even inspiration to build new stuff or fix what you’ve got. Having said that - the internet is a terrible place to learn anything. Unless you independently verify what you learn - you’ll never know if it was right or wrong or made up completely…. Unfortunately disinformation is both the currency and the bane of our era. I’m no expert in anything you’ll see here. I don’t want you to think that I am. Through my job I have access to people who are - and I’ve learned from them over the last couple of decades and become someone who is curious about stuff, brave about stuff , and foolish enough to try and make a youtube channel about my relationship with stuff all at the same time.
DISCLAIMER / PLEASE READ: In making this channel I will put more effort into making the content accurate, safe and correct than most - but that doesn’t mean I can’t be wrong. Accordingly I can’t guarantee or warranty any specific outcome for viewers should they attempt something similar to what they see on the channel. I encourage you not to copy projects you see here directly but build on them - discuss them with experts in your life, and make them better - make them work safely for you. We all need to figure out a better way to own stuff - this channel is meant to illustrate my experience with that, promote learning, have some fun, and challenge myself. Working with any tool or on any project can lead to unintended results - including injury and damage to property. Don’t work beyond your capability. In the same way I have to take complete responsibility for the outcome of my endeavours as recorded here, and my own safety and the safety of those around me - you have to do the same….. Use the information here at your own risk. Be safe, have fun, proceed with the appropriate caution for your situation….

Alsp twin lead hehe.. an dvi for spme hd tv sets prior to hdmi but after 2001ish so up to about 2004 when hdmi came out, "control s"/"S-link" for controlling more than one device with a single infrared remote commander

[@bsanchez3563]

Wait why do some rptv sets actuallyhave 7 component input holes one saying h and the other v but have it called colorstream/bitstream etc?

[@MulliganSnicker]

Great video. What TV are you using and would you recommend it for gaming with Original Xbox/Wii (component) and Xbox 360/PS3 (HDMI)?

[@readiysteadiy]

The tv in the video is my old Sony kdl40ex600. Takes inputs from all 3 systems you mentioned.

I cannot find a HDMI OUT on my RCA Smart TV..they are all IN HDMI. I want to use a 2nd TV or do my HDMI have both in and out in the cable and smart TV? So far no 2nd TV not working.
