Dear Friends & Colleagues, after 18yrs developing Crestron beyond a Contol Processor Mnfgr, this is to confirm I no longer work at Crestron. Some know, many Customers are just finding out. I will always VALUE the Relationships built at all Levels with the great People at Crestron over the years, as well as the best Channel Partners & top Customers, THANK YOU All !!! First, I so appreciate Mr. George Feldstein, Founder & Genius Inventor, & Fred Bargetzi, CTO, they were very smart terrific Men, they recognized my Engineering/IT background & embraced me beyond a sales role, asking for my input on inventions, especially the Microsoft Codecs-(Room Lync & Skype4Bus), both Men are no longer with us, still miss them very much. I'd very much like to thank Mr. Randy Klein, CEO retired, Landon Lovett, VP Sales & Mark Swiderski, VP Sales, for including me as a CORE Team member during our 17yrs together, allowing me to open new Sales Paths for Crestron into the Government, Military, State Contracts & Higher Ed Universities, plus Corporate Enterprise, these Men are great Leaders & Motivators. Landon was my direct Boss for 17yrs, he & Mark have graciously offered to share feedback to serious inquiries of my Capabilities & who I am as a Person. I just updated my Profile this week, Crestron financially took good care of me, allowing time to find another Manufacturer that needs access to the best Customers-(Channel Integrators & Endusers, both must be happy!) & Sales leader. My email is wmmarlinfish@gmail.com or message me to discuss. I love this business, most know me, know it's not work, I love helping People understand the Why & How to make informed Decisions. Peek Performance can only come when we are Healthy, very important to me for Success. I'm at the top of my Game, ready to succeed...!!

Upgrading from a cheaper Optoma projector, this reviewer is blown away by the Sony's picture quality. They compare the difference to stepping up from an LED TV to an OLED – a significant leap in terms of realism. Sony's technology delivers true blacks, unlike the Optoma's washed-out dark tones, and the HDR (High Dynamic Range) makes colors pop with stunning vibrancy. Beyond the core picture quality, the Sony projector boasts several user-friendly features. The remote control allows for electronic adjustments to focus, zoom, and horizontal/vertical alignment – a huge plus compared to the hassle of manual adjustments, especially for ceiling-mounted projectors. You can even zoom in on widescreen movies to fill your entire screen with the remote, and the picture controls are intuitive and easy to use. The icing on the cake? This projector runs incredibly quiet, even when powering down. However, there's one caveat for 3D movie fans. Unlike most projectors that use DLP glasses, this Sony requires Bluetooth 3D glasses. While Bluetooth might seem like a more reliable technology, the downside is that these glasses are less common and more expensive than their DLP counterparts. https://lnkd.in/dGBu8fh3

⚰️ RIP RGB in Pro AV ⚰️ For decades, the RGB (red, green, blue) color model was the industry standard for transmitting video signals in the professional AV world. But all good things must come to an end, and RGB's reign has faded. Major manufacturers like Extron, Crestron, and AMX have phased out support for RGB video transmission products like distribution amplifiers, switchers, and matrix routers. RGB has been replaced by modern digital video interfaces like HDMI, DisplayPort, and HDBaseT. The writing has been on the wall for RGB's demise for years as the AV world transitioned from analog to digital video technologies. While nostalgic for the simplicity of the old RGB systems, their legacy limitations like signal noise, color accuracy issues, and resolution constraints made them ill-suited for today's high-res digital video demands. So dust off those old 5-BNC to VGA adapters and take one last look at the warm, fuzzy glow of an RGB video signal flickering across your monitors. For veteran AV techs, it's been a bittersweet farewell to a trusted old friend. Raise your BNCs one last time and pour one out for RGB, the red-headed stepchild of professional video interfacing. You lived a good, long life, but the digital transition will leave no trace of you behind. Share your favorite RGB video nightmares and memories from the analog AV trenches! 👇

I created this Spice Script of the 6N16B Tube to show that the Tube Specification Guidebook still has some use and to help design an amplifier using this tube. I had difficulty finding 6N16B specifications that were not in Russian. The tube works great, even though I get a log() warning, and my gain is off by 5; I have not used spice in a long time. 😎 😂 You may have noticed that I designed my 6N16B as a single tube instead of a dual tube. It was easier for me to do the math that way (OK, I am no math expert, but I get by with a bit of help from my friends); the separation of the sections might explain the gain being off by 5 since the lack of interactive characteristics might explain the decrease in gain. Anywho, it works! Intellectual Exercises are essential for resetting the mind; I am just rediscovering that fact. In my original script I used LOG() but in this script I replaced LOG() with LN() to clear up the E1 Warnings. It worked on Multisim 14.3, but not on Multisim 12.3, go figure.

Chinese LED continuously copy one another, They don't pay attention to the market trends or market requests They just observe every one of their competitors in China and replicate the same thing oblivious to reality. the latest trend is demonstrating an LED screen that always has one module removed In one module upside down. They will proceed to walk up to the screen They usually will tap the screen five times then they will put one module in and press it into place. then they will use a vacuum tool to remove the upside down module and flip it right side up never has there been a problem in the industry with modules turning upside down in the middle of the night but apparently in China it happens all the time. meanwhile factories are opening up in Taiwan, Vietnam, And now I hear Brazil. The great thing about these other countries is they have respect They don't go dancing around stealing customers from their agents So very quickly we are seeing a transition taking place. Yes I know what the future holds but it's too hard to bring up in the public space because it hurts feelings but change is good. in business for 30 years We have never ever had problems with any customers or manufacturers only Chinese suppliers we have ever had problems with And we have never found one Chinese factory supplier that hasn't defrauded us in one way or another. it's simply part of the culture which I respect And is the reason why our company shifted gears to focus on the fact that Chinese suppliers do not support their products They don't recognize formal agents. #ledscreen #chinesetofudreg #tofudreg #leddisplay #avtweeps #avislife
