  Maybe, but true! Its part of a daisy chain that still functions. PS Sysmon isn't working- permanent loading.

2. Dead HDR-FOXT2?
  
  I think that I may have killed my machine. Yesterday a picture frame fell off the wall and crash landed on the cables at the back of the T2. Later on when I powered up, I got the message missing or encrypted signal on all channels. Looking at the aerial sockets I noticed that the antenna out...

  I did try a switch that was lying around to no effect, but it was probably not a suitable type.

5. Investigating the HDMI "Green Screen After a Few Seconds" Problem
  
  I convinced myself that it was a timing issue caused by component ageing as, in my case the problem first showed up some years ago with a Sony Bravia TV, and got progressively worse over some months. When the Bravia was replaced by a Panasonic, the green screen went away. However, some years...

6. Volume Irregularity - Horror Channel
  
  It's been fine for years and it seems to be only Enterprise that has this problem. The ads are not significantly louder than normal sound levels on other programs.

  Reminds me of a time when I removed my front door for repair and repaint.

  I have also noted that doors set into partition walls tend to be lightweight - hollow frames covered with hardboard pressing - so the frame does not need to be as rigid.

  But the moulding is much stronger and less sensitive to twist, due to it's greater cross section.

  Out of interest, I looked at the doors in another house, and noticed that all the frames that were fitted into brick walls (one brick and rendering ~5 inches thick) were single mouldings like mine, whereas frames fitted into partition walls (stud and plasterboard~2.5-3 inch thick) were two...

  My house is 50 odd years old. I replaced one frame a few years ago and got the new frame as a kit (two sides, the top and the finishing mouldings), off the shelf at the local timber yard.
