Screeeeeeech when switching to a commecial

Occasionally (specifically on MSNBC) when a commercial comes on, I get a very very loud screech. Not all commercials but enough to freak me out..
anyone else?

Solved!
Go to Solution.

That can occur as the channel switches audio formats between the program and the commercial.  There is a setting you can change on the STB (search the forums for "loss of sound" issues with STB's) and make the same suggested changes.  The change will cause the STB to do the signal re-encouding on the box before sending it to the TV and hopefully get past the issue.
Here's a thread which discusses making the necessary changes (ravioli, my alter ego):

  • Dreamweaver 6.1 - JavaScript error when switching between open tabs

    When switching between open tabs a sequence of javascript
    errors occurs. I had not used Dreamweaver for about 2 weeks, and
    last time I used it with no problems.
    I have tried uninstalling it, OKing removal of all files when
    asked, re-installing it and updating with dwmx61_updater.exe, but I
    still get the same errors.
    This has rendered the software virtually unuseable, so any
    help would be greatly appreciated, as I'm working to a
    rapidly-approaching deadline.
    "While executing Browse_Back enabled in toolbars.xml, a
    JavaScript error occurred"
    followed by
    "While executing Browse_Forward enabled in toolbars.xml, a
    JavaScript error occurred"
    followed by
    "While executing Browse_Stop enabled in toolbars.xml, a
    JavaScript error occurred"
    The relevant code seems to be :
    <!-- Browser nav toolbar -->
    <toolbar id="Browser_Toolbar" platform="win"
    label="Browser Navigation" container="document"
    initiallyVisible="false">
    <button id="Browse_Back"
    image="Toolbars/images/MM/back.gif"
    disabledImage="Toolbars/images/MM/back_dis.gif"
    tooltip="Back"
    label="Back"
    enabled="dw.getDocumentDOM().browser.isCmdEnabled('back')"
    command="dw.getDocumentDOM().browser.backPage()"
    update="onEveryIdle"/>
    <button id="Browse_Forward"
    image="Toolbars/images/MM/forward.gif"
    disabledImage="Toolbars/images/MM/forward_dis.gif"
    tooltip="Forward"
    label="Forward"
    enabled="dw.getDocumentDOM().browser.isCmdEnabled('forward')"
    command="dw.getDocumentDOM().browser.forwardPage()"
    update="onEveryIdle"/>
    <button id="Browse_Stop"
    image="Toolbars/images/MM/stop.gif"
    disabledImage="Toolbars/images/MM/stop_dis.gif"
    tooltip="Stop"
    label="Stop"
    enabled="dw.getDocumentDOM().browser.getPageBusy()"
    command="dw.getDocumentDOM().browser.stopPage()"
    update="onBrowserPageBusyChange"/>

    image="Toolbars/images/MM/browserRefresh.gif"
    tooltip="Refresh"
    label="Refresh"
    enabled="true"
    command="dw.getDocumentDOM().browser.refreshPage()"/>
    presumably the next error is caused by the previous ones
    failing :
    "While executing getCurrentValue in AddressURL.htm, a
    JavaScript error occurred"
    the relevan tcode :
    function getCurrentValue()
    var dom = dw.getDocumentDOM();
    var value = dom.browser.getURL();
    if (value && value.length)
    //check if is it not a temp file
    //extract the tail of the url
    var filename = value;
    var slashIndex = filename.lastIndexOf("/");
    filename = filename.substring(slashIndex+1);
    var tempIndex = filename.indexOf("TMP");
    if (tempIndex != 0)
    addRecentAddress(value);
    return value;

    You can try this simple fix -
    Quit DW.
    Find this folder -
    C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application
    Data\Macromedia\Dreamweaver
    8\Configuration\WinFileCache-*.dat
    (these folders are normally hidden - you may have to use
    Explorer > Tools >
    Folder Options to unhide them)
    and delete it.
    Restart DW. Works better?

  • Graphic distortion when switching between external and built-in display (rMBP)

    Recently (within the past two weeks or so) I've noticed a strange issue when switching between my external display (Thunderbolt) and my built-in display on my 15" rMBP. The following issue seems to be specific to Photoshop CS6.
    Typically, I'll have a PS document open on my external display and I'll wind up taking my to another location. If I close the PS document while on my built-in and then re-open it, I get all kinds of distortion and pixellation. Closing out PS and reopining, restarting, logging on/off; none of it seems to work. It seems like the issue is with the PSD itself, but it doesn't make any sense to me. Any ideas? Screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/iCipSc7.jpg

    Do you have intel gpy as well as other graphic card?  You may be viewing document on different gpu's.  PS does not like multiple gpu's.

  • Photos in Develop module look different when switching to library module

    Hello everyone this is my first post on adobe.  I ran into a problem today for the first time using lightroom 5.  I recently purchased lightroom 5 about 2 weeks ago and have been in love using it.  I have ran into 0 problems until today.  I uploaded some new photos and was going through them under the develop module editing the photos and what not.  When I am done editing I usually go to the library module and export them.
    Today I tried to do that exact thing and ran into this issue:  the colors in the photo are changing ever so slightly when I switch to the library module and are not exporting exactly as I edited them in the develop module. 
    I have tried changing the contrast/clarity to see if it would remain when switching and it does.  But for some reason the yellow on the flower in the picture becomes less vibrant when seen/exported from library module.  It is very frustrating because I spend alot of time editing the photo in a develop module and every transfers but the colors it seems.  It becomes more dull and less vibrant.
    It is not the photo itself.  I think it is something wrong with my lightroom?  I uninstalled and reinstalled and the same issue keeps happening.

    Just to clarify. When you compare the exported image to the original inside LR do they look the same when viewed together in the Library module, and how about when both are viewed in the Develop module? Are you using a wide gamut monitor and do you also use a hardware monitor calibrator? All of these things affect how images looks in LR and some are fixable, but others are not as Web Weaver posted.
    There is also another issue that can cause the Library module view and exported images to look different than they do in the Develop module:
    http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/afm8rbh6tnc31
    The solution is to view the image at 1:1 (100%) view size. You can also use more conservative Sharpening settings (i.e. lower) and more aggressive Luminance Noise Reduction settings (i.e. higher), which will significantly decrease the view difference.

  • [SOLVED] screen brightness too low when switching tty

    I have autologin enabled in LightDM, so when I boot I am taken to my MATE desktop automatically. This happens in the default tty (tty1).
    Sometimes I want to switch to a different virtual terminal (e.g., by pressing Control+Alt+F2) without ending my session in tty1. However, most of the time when I do this I find that the brightness in the new tty (e.g., tty2) is so low that I can hardly see the login prompt. When I switch back to tty1 the brightness in the X session is fine. Switching back to tty2 I see that it is still dim. Hitting either the brightness-up or the brightness-down (!?) key on the laptop causes the brightness in tty2 to jump to normal.
    Does anyone know how to fix this so that when I switch to a different tty the brightness is at a reasonable level right away? I am on a Lenovo Thinkpad T520 (no Nvidia, just integrated Intel graphics) in case it matters.
    Last edited by bdantas (2014-08-19 17:53:05)

    As an experiment, I logged in to non-graphic mode in tty1 (by adding "systemd.unit=multi-user.target" to grub2's kernel line), then tried switching ttys. No brightness problems!
    As another experiment, I allowed regular boot to my desktop in tty1 (LightDM -> MATE autologin) but then got out of graphical mode by opening a terminal emulator and typing "sudo systemctl isolate multi-user.target". Once I had a cli in tty1 I then tried switching ttys. Again, no brightness problems.
    I can conclude that when switching tty's, the new tty is too dim only if I have a graphical session running in tty1. Therefore, I don't think this is a kernel problem. Seems that something related to lightDM or X or MATE running in tty1 is causing the problem.

  • Stor.e TV+ No Loader error keeps coming up when switching on

    I have been experiencing continual problems accessing the hard drive. "No Loader" error message keeps coming up when switching on.
    The so-called "solution" to this problem posted on this forum is to open up the box and fiddle with the cables. Whilst I have had some success with this method initially, dismantling the box 10 times a week is not on.
    I tried something else in desperation.
    When the No Loader message comes up, I switch the box off and on again from the remote.
    After 2 or 3 times or so the HDD folder usually appears.
    I have been doing this consistently now with great success. This however suggests that the No Loader error message is NOT a mechanical connector problem with the hard drive but (as usual) poor software (what else?).
    Dismantling the unit is tantamount to switching it off for an extended period of time so may explain why this technique works.
    Switching the unit on and off several times also solves the problem of the D folder not appearing on the network even though Win7 shows Store-TV-Plus as a mapped NTFS drive (but can't find the D folder).
    See the similarity?
    Another thing that exacerbates problems is the unit's poor ventilation. The first thing that happens with this unit is that the rubbish stick-on rubber feet fall off.
    Whilst this may seem innocuous, the ventilation slots are underneath the unit and will be blocked if there are no feet. I live in a hot country so this device gets pretty hot and behaves even more erratically unless well ventilated.
    Ideally keep it well away from other units and preferably sit it on a small box by itself with the vents underneath well exposed.
    I also still experience problems playing FLAC and MKV files. The unit occasionally loses synch with FLAC files which generally otherwise play OK and locks up or causes loud bangs or white noise on the speakers (dangerous).
    Some MKV files just don't play at all even though VLC plays them. There are a myriad other inconsistencies but these are the most annoying.
    Is anyone else experiencing these problems or does anyone have any other solutions to prevent these problems?
    I don't suppose we can expect another software upgrade from Toshiba? In your dreams, pal.

    OK, so I took the risk and updated the firmware of my Stor.e TV+ to the Noontec V8S latest firmware V3.0816.13_V8S from noontec website.
    The update went fine without a hitch (took about 2 minutes from an old 256MB flash drive plugged into the back USB port of the unit, which I formatted before using), and some of the irritating shortcomings of the Toshiba firmware was solved. Samba worked in some fashion, but I was still not able to download songs directly to the Stor.e over wireless, which is the only other feature I currently need. The irritating remote control buttons were changed to the way any sane person would use them (I had changed my universal remote control to correct this, so would have to change the settings if I kept the updated firmware) The new firmware seems solid, but I DON'T USE THE VIDEO CAPABLITIES, so I can't comment on this.
    One major drawback of this update for me is that the small display on the unit becomes much less readable. Seems like there is a problem with the font on the new firmware. I use my Stor.e exclusively as a flac music player, and since I don't have it connected to a tv the small display is crucial for me to select tracks or disks. I have 300+ discs, so the Stor.e is an excellent cheap media player which I connect to my HIFI system via a DAC.
    I thus had to change back to the Toshiba firmware to correct this problem. Seems like I would still have to use USB to download music to the Stor.e when I buy new CDs. What a pity.
    Incidentally, the new Toshiba firmware is very much like the old firmware, in that it lacks the capability to switch on Samba. In the readme Toshiba states that the new firmware fixes a network problem, but I think that this is probably the smallest issue most users have with the Toshiba firmware.
    So, my advice to anyone having video, control or other issues with the Toshiba firmware is to flash to the Noontec firmware to see if it resolves their issues. If it doesn't one can always revert to the official Toshiba firmware as I did.
    You do this at your own risk though, if you brick your unit don't blame me...

  • My iphone 3gs is not working properly, when switched on it says 'Update Completed' as though it has just been updated. On the next screen it says to 'Connect to iTunes'. It doesn't, however, connect to iTunes and more often than not just resets itself.

    My iPhone 3gs is not working properly and hasn't been since about September of last year. When switched on (Quite often it won't even turn on) it says 'Update Completed' as though it has just been updated. On the next screen it says to 'Connect to iTunes'. It doesn't, however, connect to iTunes and just resets itself over and over until power is gone. Occasionally after switching on and off a few times it functions normally for a few hours and some times even a couple of days but eventually always turns itself off and goes back to the 'Update Completed' screen. Does anyone know what might be causing this and/or a way of fixing it?

  • Anybody experienced loss of data when switching service providers?

    I recently transferred my two IMAP accounts to a new hosting service, but since I used the same names for the new accounts in Mail, all the mailboxes under the previous accounts, with hundreds of messages dating back to over two years, were deleted or overwritten!
    Luckily, because they were IMAP I can still access them through webmail, but users should be warned that re-using the same name for mail accounts when switching causes loss of data, and as far as I know there is no warning during the creation of the new accounts that existing mailboxes will be overwritten.

    Nothing has been over-written (the messages live on the server): it's simply that you've changed the settings for the accounts to the new provider, so of course Mail is displaying the messages there, not the originals. Just set up the original accounts again with the appropriate server settings and username/password - you can give them new names in Mail to distinguish them from the new ones (you can call a mail account anything you like for display purposes).

  • Images maximize (full screen) when switching windows?

    When working with two or more images in Fireworks CS3 (Mac OSX 10.5.7)....
    The image windows blast into full screen display when switching between images. I am new to CS3, (convert from Studio 8) but cannot find where to stop this irritating behaviour. I can correct by selecting Window>>Cascade - temporarily... But, when I click on another image window, that image blasts into full-screen again.
    How can I stop this?
    I really hate posting (usually preferring instead to lurk and scour the answers to my questions from previous posts). But, I am forced to post this question in hopes of a quick, simple solution to stop the lurching madness that makes me feel queasy every time my screen blasts an image into full screen mode..
    Any help is appreciated...  really, it is. :-)

    OK, this is possibly a bug.
    After restarting today, the problem did not occur until about an hour working with FW.
    A restart did NOT stop it. So, I restarted again and tried three different files... It was fine for a while and then started the same thing again.
    I am starting to lose hope that it is something I can do to prevent this. It appears that FW and Carbon are not playing together nicely.

    You need a valid/working email address in order to create an account.
    Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option.

  • Help! mail dissappears when switching from junk training to automatic mode

    I'm a new Mail user recently switched from 20 years of Eudora. I'm using Mail with a standard POP account. I've had no trouble setting up mailboxes and importing my old mail.
    I've been using junk filtering in training mode for the past few weeks and want to switch to automatic mode. When I tried doing this, all of my inbox messages suddenly disappeared. I quit mail and rebuilt my inbox and found myself with thousands of duplicated messages. I'm using Andreas Amann's remove duplicates script to clean up my inbox (it's taking forever but working!)
    My inbox has about 7000 messages currently. My practice with Eudora has always been to keep the current year in the inbox and archive at the beginning of the new year. I'd like to continue this with Mail.
    A couple questions:
    1) will rebuilding a mailbox cause duplicates? When should one use rebuild?
    2) do I just need to be more patient and let mail do its thing when switching from training mode to automatic?
    3) is 7000 messages considered too many for a single mailbox?
    Any help much appreciated. Many thanks!

    No.

    This question doesn’t have a simple answer in the case of Mail 2.x and POP accounts.
    2) do I just need to be more patient and let mail do its thing
    when switching from training mode to automatic?
    I think so.
    3) is 7000 messages considered too many for a single mailbox?
    There is a limit on the overall size of individual mailboxes rather than on the number of messages stored in them -- see Overstuffed mailbox is unexpectedly empty.

  • Why does the screen background picture get reset to default when switching user

    iMac with OS X 10.6.8
    I have several user accounts on this iMac, each with a different wallpaper chosen from a common folder (library/desktop/nature) in the top level of the hard drive. (Which exists – can always reset background picture from this folder)
    When I switch from one user account to another, the wallpaper picture, set on the previous login,  appears for a moment and then is  immediately replaced by the default blue.
    This happens when switching from any user to another. I tried restarting the system but the problem is still there.
    This problem just suddenly started and there have been no upgrades or changes to OS X.
    Ideas appreciated!!

    I've found the answer.
    Today, the problem suddenly appeared on my other Mac, which made me look at recent apps..
    I installed Team Viewer a month ago, (which is a great app apart from this) so quit it and removed it from the dock. Problem solved!!
    The odd thing is that the problem appeared only after I had been using Team Viewer for some weeks.
