As an interim solution, would it be possible to re-rip & encode the CDs as single music files? I don't know how practical this is if the BS5 offers no easy way to jump inside titles, but I'd expect the "gapless" recordings to be either classical music or live concerts, which you'd mostly want to listen in original order anyway

[quote user="rayfenwick"] Somewhat related.... Any fans of Nixie tubes out there? [/quote] Who isn't! I've always wanted to build a Nixie clock, but I'm sure it's one of the projects I'll never start. Besides, somebody has already built the definitive all-tub.. ermm all-valve implementation

It's a one-off protocol I have never seen anywhere else, quite simple though with only 256 possible commands. The basic transmission format is described here: http://irobotcreate.googlepages.com/createanirbeacon ...and the problem is to know which code means which command. We have a non-working (dead battery) Roomba at work - if I find the remote

I always wondered how most countries still keep analogue in cable (Finland is now exclusively DVB, even in cable): you would expect the cable operators to jump up in joy if they could replace each analogue channel with half a dozen crappy digital pay-TV channels with pirate-proof encryption But I suppose it is a political thing... Actually it would

I'm surprised you can actually still receive PAL+ transmissions somewhere. Technically, it is all but dead and will disappear along with analogue transmissions as it has no use whatsoever in DVB. DVB will always use all the available TV lines in 4:3 and 16:9 both, and just signal the receiver to switch to the correct aspect ratio. And no, I don't

[quote user="Puncher"] btw - what's a wine stopper? [/quote] I believe it is one of the things that you wrap around the neck of the bottle to avoid spillage. It also keeps you from drinking too much as you cant use it on BiB's

[quote user="jonnyw"] Wow thank you both of you. Two answers, almost simultaneously posted with the same advice. You must both know your stuff! [/quote] Jandyt has probably done dozens of them, I'm still in single digits! But these problems are pretty common in remotes, no matter which manufacturer. B&O is different in that they are

As funny as it may seem, the slime under the rubber pad is actually grease from the users' fingers Some older remotes can be really awful in this respect... it oozes through the rubber. I've seen at least two kinds of Beolink 1000 internals - older remotes have some kind of copper/brass clicking things that make contact on the circuit board

Hello Jonny, welcome to the forums! It's obvious that the button is now somehow electrically stuck. Does the button itself look to be at the same height than the others, or does it feel any different (don't try to pry it up though, the rubber breaks easily)? Has anything been spilled on the remote sometime in the past, or have the batteries

Found them (under other instruments, obviously). Started off a little above 16 DKK and is currently at 18,10 DKK. B&O new share subscription rights price Price of the new shares in advance market is now 36,20.
