Damnit... I got home from work and fired up the computer, got to the first video posted in an AI thread and ... no audio. After poking around for a while, the Denon A/V receiver that drives my speakers from my computer has apparently died. Switched to tuner and nada, so it's not the optical input, it's the output, and for both A & B speaker sets. Crapola. It make the typical 'click' sound when powered up, just doesn't output any audio.

If your hand goes numb, it's probably not that.

I ask because I had the same issue and it turns out someone pressed buttons which killed the outputs to zone A. It was a button on the receiver too, there wasn't an equivalent one on the remote.

A coworker is having a pretty lovely day. Her apartment doesn't have fire damage, but has heavy smoke and water damage, and the building has been declared a total loss. Red Cross put her up in a Motel 6 for tonight.

Our neighbour is having his brother re-do his driveway soon and has suggested doing ours too. I might finally have a flat concrete driveway to work on cars.  (The current drive is 1/2" of ~30 year old tarmac laid directly onto dirt. If you try and lift something on a hot day you just press the jack down through the tarmac instead.)

Checked the multi-zone stuff. some texas redneck posted:Is there a tape monitor setting? Not sure on that one, will have to look at it tonight, but don't think that's it. Sunday it was working fine (watched the olympics on live streams all weekend) when I shut the computer down. Today when I fired it up it was silent, and I live alone so nobody else messed with it. Tonight I'll poke around on it, unplug everything and mess around some more. Worst case it gets replaced, it's lived a long life as it was my primary home theater setup from before moving into this house, and was moved to the computer when I upgraded the home theater. I'm guessing it's 15 years old or more, and since it was moved to the computer about 6 or 7 years ago, it's spent probably 95% of the time turned on. I got into that habit when I had another piece of gear plugged into it's remote switching power outlet, and just never shut it off to keep that outlet powered. Long ago re-did things to have enough outlets not to need to do that, but never started shutting it off. I suppose I should get into the habit of shutting it off when the computer is turned off.

In the process of trying to make a profit, they keep fuckin' with it. I decided I wanted to be a customer instead of a product, so I started paying for image hosting.

Son of a  replacement power board I ordered for a TV that died in a storm is a slightly different version and doesn't work. Really not interested in going through this thing pin by pin but I might be so I don't order another $40 board that doesn't fix the problem.And I got news last night Mojo passed away. Downside to Bernese is the short life span and health issues, he passed away at around 8 and a half. Look at this glorious bastard, he'll be missed.
