Unfortunately, problems are limited to Samsung.  :facepalm:
I have a 43" Sharp Aquos LCD TV (15-18 y.o.) that is going nuts.  When I turn it on, I get a good picture and sound - for about 30 seconds.  Then I spend the next 7-8 minutes cycling it off & on with the sound OK but the picture looks like a kaleidoscope for a fraction of a second, then goes black.  Finally, after about 25-30 cycles, the picture comes on clear with now other problems.  [barf]

HankB - similar problem but on the video side.  I have a 4-head VCR that MAY have broken a drive belt but can't find anyplace to work on it.  It's about 35-40 years old so a broken drive belt (a fancy rubber band) doesn't surprise me.
The other is a 10-15 y.o. JVC combo unit.  The DVD side still works fine but, for an unknown reason, the tape side is eating cassettes.  JVC told me to ship it to Atlanta WITH a check for $XX (don't remember) for them to work on it.  :O
Never sent it.
And, I have a fruit crate FULL of 33 LPs that I would LOVE to digitize and burn to CDs.  I just don't have room in this computer room to set up a turntable.  :mad:

What could possibly go wrong with AI having their own reactor?

Jill Biden is leading cabinet meetings. Nothing to see here.

We should ask Nancy Pelosi about how Jill was elected.
