I'm like somebody's at the door if he's acting that crazy So I got there and there's a young man up there, and I'm like, oh Did I like schedule a PVM pickup or drop-off today that I'm forgetting about that was my first thought And then I was like I don't think so so I had to take off this Jacket so I didn't look so crazy to just a newbie out there and I It's the door and apparently he had found some stray dogs running around the neighborhood. So somebody has lost their pups Let them out and I told him there's a house up yonder Up the hill up yonder that might have a couple dogs on the loose So anyway Again happy wonderful Valentine's Day to you all Even those of you that maybe you don't have a love a lovely person in your life Maybe you have a lovely CRT in your life.

Oh Yeah Gotta get up here. We've got to get this taken apart a bit when we actually get into the restoration phase And oh yeah right there. That's where we got to go That's the operation zone Here we all are Hello, everyone all the CRT gang Hello and all Let's get into the 1341. Let's do it Let us Have some fun with a 1340. I'm sorry not 41 40 Here's a cool one, right? So this is an all analog monitor. It definitely has a unique look to it and I have Got a modification available for this one and we're gonna do that. Hopefully first mmm Lovely idea rollpads chocolate covered tubes chocolate covered capacitors Don't want to that's the next thing open your snickers bar and find a capacitor in it Alright, so yeah We've got First and foremost at the top Tony Escobar the doctor. Thank you for dropping in today Robcat. Welcome in To the bunker Electro sushi or electric sushi welcome little pig Thank you for coming shadow mask as always welcome in Leonardo Gonzalez. Hello there Zephyr. Welcome Ronnie S. Hey there and Away we go Shinra Champloo Hello mark Bessert good to see there rollpads Gloria retro 3d boardgamer welcome in everybody Welcome in and yes, let's look at this Modification first I create I gotta think my friend a Niki a Niki for setting this in and look I guess I should mention this, right? You guys that turn tuned in last week on Friday got to catch a live show of myself and Zez retro. Hey laser pig Zez Lewis in studio. We had a wonderful time. He came and he stayed before I get too comfortable. Sorry about that Lewis came and stayed with my CRTs down here in the bunker he got to sleep here for a few days and Was lovely having him visit He was on the live show, but don't worry Ronnie S. Of course the live shows are always Always available on the bunker playlist on retro check channels. So if you ever miss one This today is actually the 30th The 30th episode since the launching of the bunker. You're here for the 30th. So Again Zez was in last time, but we did have an awesome sit-down chance to Chat and have a pretty lengthy conversation the last night he was here We got it really comfortable down here and you're gonna you're gonna love seeing it. Hey Belmont Brian Harmon welcome in Yeah, you're gonna love seeing that stuff. It's gonna be Over on his channel when that's ready. So I'm gonna let him publish that As an old-school Episode of the cathode ray podcast pretty much live together first time ever in studio. So that'll be that's a fun one. I made a video of our travels kind of of the fun video for that so that I'm sure that I'll have that ready and that should be the next thing probably. Hey hung gang Thank you for coming in. Yeah, well So that'll be the next kind of stuff you will see some some of our trip. There's gonna be a couple of fun videos coming I also was able to show Louis some pretty crazy stuff here in the shop and He actually did a full shop tour So that'll be a project. He's working on we also got some fun things where he did some quite American things like going into Costco And we took the opportunity to Put that Put a video together for that where we looked a bit unhinged So look for that to come out in the future next couple weeks next few months I'm not sure what his exact schedule is going to be for that, but that's coming and Let's but we had a great time and I Did miss him a bit after you know But let's set the mood first. Okay, because it's Valentine's Day And we could set the mood in here, right? pardon pardon Whoo Brian yeah, it was cool. He's here asleep game Junction. Welcome in. Let's set the mood here Make it smell a little better down here today. That's right we'll do that and I've actually given myself a little bit. I don't know that you could tell but I've given myself a bit more space here I've actually Moved the setup back. I don't know why I didn't think of this sooner about three or four feet So I've got more space in here to get in and work around the bunker. So this is gonna be fun All right Let's get comfortable. Let's get ready to do some work. Okay, you know It's a beautiful day somewhere. I Don't know about here Here we go. Now. What's kind of cool about this new setup is I have a Microphone over here. Look at this now. Hello. I can sing karaoke To you all out there if I want to or We could actually do some CRT work. I don't know maybe one night We're partying. We'll just do some Living on a prayer Take my hand We'll make it. I swear. Whoa Who knows what the jazz sounds like in the background, but that way bond Jovey can't whip out his hair and his copyright on me, so Hope you all having fun today again We have the 1341 which is running and before we get in here and start operating We're gonna look at a Niki's modification for the machine You're right. How fun is that? How fun is that? That's great? All right, that's right. I even put on a nice shirt for everybody Hope you all are ready to get into this CRT. Let's jump over here Modification I Love it up. I didn't make this. Okay, Niki sent this to me a poorly documented RGB audio mod for the Sony pvm 1340 and So the issue with the 1340 is there is no Audio on The RGB it does have RGB, but there's no audio support for it Thanks Belmont so there's no audio support and I believe I've tried to do the modification that's documented on the CRT database on This input board for the 1340 and it did not work. That was the thing It only works for the others, which is like the 43 and the 42 but not the 40 or The 41 maybe the 41 Not sure so This is a modification that a Niki came up with I started by squeezing the plastic anchors Which will I'll show you this stuff so you could pull that board out Here's the cue board separated, right? And this is a cue board is our input board There you go Now he's saying you have to sever I guess this spot right here right on the back of the Q1 board The RGB pin has two traces Which leads to two different ICs? The left trace leads to what I believe is a sync switch. I see the right Trace which I believe leads the audio Switch on the mute or audio mute. I see I took a sloppy approach and just cut the trace and Hope my theory worked out And it worked Okay Yeah, so here's what here's the actual schematics On there where you can see I use Okay, so he used the 1344 Q RGB audio mod from Andy King on the CRD database as inspiration in reference to that service manual to see what I could find and By cutting the RGB line from the QE board to the QD board you bypass the audio mute I see Before reaching the A board There's no service manual for the 4-0. That's the thing nonetheless From the research on the 1344 Q mod. I assume that the 1344 or 1340 had an RGB line that would lead to two different paths and surprisingly enough it did. Thank you for reading awesome Now it's this has been a long time ago That I got this sent to me through email. So thank you. So what we'll do right now is we're gonna extract this Q board set up Take a look at it and maybe we'll start from there and that way we can check right away if we get that audio to work on RGB and then I've already done the Partially things to this hopefully we can get the Full board out. That's what we've got to get to is the main board I've already taken care of the neck board and the power supply board on this But I've not recapped that neck board or the main board. Sorry with the flyback So we've got to get that out but before we do that we can do this audio mod I mean if it's just a severing of a trace we can either do it that or maybe we can just pull a pen or something and Make it easier, but let's Let's switch over now And see if we can't get some action in here. So if let me hear this music see what we got Yeah, so be okay. I guess Get a little jazzy Let's Check out a camera view. That's what I'm showing you What are we gonna need to see? I'm gonna flip it around backwards. Aren't we? All right, let's do it Well, I just cut the power So you can probably see that I just cut the power there folks Disconnected the AV cables. I'm gonna leave this plugged in so we unplug it all there. We go there. We go How's this looking for everybody? Everything look cool so far and you get this board out of here Let's see if we can see if we can get this over. All right. Here we go This is the board we're looking at right here that we need to get out this cue board Thank You Belmont Need to get it out of here, so I'm gonna move a couple things out of the way just to Make it an easy easier task so that nothing gets damaged. Okay That's the big part There's a ground plate a bunch of ground screws going over here So I'm gonna do all undo all these there you go now. You can see what I'm looking at Let me turn that on too. Yeah a little bit more light. No, it never hurts, right? Oh It's Lewis. Welcome in Well Cole will come down here and say hey and snore. Maybe you'll hear him snore for sure Back to the bunker, baby Yeah, I was already hit missing. I was like man. It's really tough to go from Get used to somebody being around and then they're just not there anymore. I was so heartbroken So that's why I came to share some love on Valentine's Day and let's get this let's get this thing audio modified for that loved one Or maybe the loved ones just yourself All right, the ground cables are out. There's just two of them. Oh That's the neck board so we don't need that right now there we go Here we go, so that's how you get that cue board out. It's really safe to take the neck board off first and No, I hear Cole. He's upstairs. He's too. He's too curious with what's been happening out there. There we go Come here, let's go get him. I was gonna say I'm very happy. I'm very happy that You convinced me To buy all those VHS tapes Lewis I was very Very happy because I've been watching them. Let's see first off. Obviously I finished Coolhand Luke Which was fun, of course and then I watched What do we watch? Think I watched manhunter after that. Oh, yeah, good snore. We watched manhunter and then what do we watch Cole? What do we watch then? Not sure What did we finish with all this HBO western movie called? The tracker with Chris Christofferson Dude the funniest part of this movie the funniest part of this movie was that Chris Christofferson is a cowboy, right like and His sidekick his sidekick is Is the the Lebowski Then but not the cool Lebowski not not the big in the big Lebowski the old man Lebowski who Is the rich old man. He's the one who plays this cowboy partner of Chris Christofferson and It's it's definitely a Made for TV movie from 1998 and and watched that But also I'll here was a fun one. I Yeah, not the dude definitely not the dude. I watched I started watching Smoking the bandit and the good thing is all these tapes are just in such great condition That there's nothing wrong with them. I can't believe it but I started watching smoking the bandit last night with my son who's 12 and We're just dying laughing or I was dying laughing. He was interested in it. So you want to keep watching? He wasn't like laughing out loud very much But he I mean, I don't know how you can't laugh and share of beautiful tea justice Smoky, I don't know how you can't laugh at the smokies in that movie. It's so funny Yeah, Cole Cole just snores at all. Don't you? He's brown down rolling up and trucking. All right Yeah, and I've been enjoying that on the plasma the plasma Black bars activated the weird thing about I'm probably Lewis pray inspired me to eventually do a whole video on this thing one day this plasma screen I have it's from 2007 and Weirdly enough it does do letterboxing, but it does gray bars on the side of it and You have to actually go into it and set it to black bars. It's kind of odd. All right first off This is our bundle here that we've got So we need to do separate it and get to that Spot here that a Nikki has found. So we'll do that. Here's the neckboard which has been fully serviced in the past You can see that Still has all that lovely look at that lovely solder shine and then fresh Capacitors in here. There's only one or two of them on there right there. Yeah, that's it So that's still doing well power supplies looking good fresh caps in there I've been testing in a while But I wanted to do this modification and I've never done the kit on this board since we're gonna get out next. Oh Yeah, there's that's the thing I was so I usually like a Don't sorry. I know when I touched that it makes a hum. I just tried to move it around a little bit So I know I went to Goodwill. There's not much there anymore. That's really that good At mine in this area, but I still wanted to take Zez there. He wanted to go stop by there So I was like sure. Yeah, let's go stop by here after we pounded a couple of Truly American like a couple of Americans we Devoured a couple of double quarter pounders with cheese first and then we went to Goodwill and I mean, here's my luck, right? I got the my double quarter pounder And I bite into the thing and it's got a big piece of paper in it and the guy Didn't take the paper out of like one of the pieces of meat or cheese or something So I had this big piece of paper in my burger and I just like oh and I had to go Get it get it swapped out but We went there. We did that we went to the Goodwill and there was a bunch of tapes there We were cool tapes to things I hadn't seen things that just aren't on TV anymore very often And all that stuff about lost media and Wondering how to watch certain shows and everything cost him more on streaming services Why not just go back if you can find good quality old media? You might as well grab it while you can if it's something you like and that's what all these were right all these movies were cool things like that and So yeah, I've been enjoying them. I really thank you for telling me to do that we're gonna get this board extracted out of here Yeah, big sweetie, right big old freedom sized so ideally I could have a a third I'm wondering how I get rid of that hum if I can put like something on this that insulates it So I can actually move it more towards my mouth and not have to worry about the hum But I'd like to have another camera So let's try Let me do this See if we can get this camera set up a little bit so I can give you a closer look here and Just so I don't mess with everybody too much I'll do it in a way That makes sense Do it over here on one of these other cameras these dual cameras set up, right? So there we go. Hey, actually that's not too bad. Let me let me in invert that image Or well, you probably don't have to for right now Right just inverted. Oh, look, it's skipping a lot though when I put them together because they're different frame rates So let me do properties here. Let's drop this frame rate to match. Hopefully that will help them sync up Let's make it one more check just one more check here. Yes All right There we go. It should help a little bit this this overhead camera Can be a bit dodgy at times, but hopefully it'll hold strong for us while you look at this Oh, there it goes chopping a little bit Okay Okay, the danger zone is back We're back in the danger zone. So I need to remove These things right here first Oh Yeah, that camera's getting way dodgy. Let me see if I use it over here if it will if I just put it on the desk I still get a bit of choppiness here. It's not so bad. Let's try that for a minute. Yeah, that's how it's out That fingers can't get down in there All right. Well We're gonna go ahead and take this front plate off too man, yeah, there's you talk about so the That manhunter movies a Michael Mann movie from 1986 and there's so much old tech in that There's so many old CRTs in there And they're like using them to analyze stuff And it's and the the interesting thing is like the villain Has the same kind of gear through his job that's high-tech so It's it makes it very cool, especially if you're a nerd who wants to see that kind of stuff and You'll definitely see it. Here we go. I don't know why I didn't take this off earlier Slide this plate Outs here You remember all that I mean, it's not really that much. It just gets some stuff out of the way So now my fat fingers can finally Get to these corners here Happy valentine's day February the 14th. Yeah Checking out a crt getting naked Hanging out with a dude and a dog Oh, there we go. All right back that thing up a little bit for you. Here we go. Let's see what we've got here So you had to pull this apart to get to this one let's go back To the dashboard So we got looking for this spot Man, it smells like this thing smells like somebody dumped a bunch of cologne inside this pvm. I'm actually not That's like the most pleasant spelling inside cologne. It's like old spice It's like old spice man was hanging out inside this pvm For the last 30 years and he's just like busted open and usually it smells like dirty fish or Something nasty, but this thing is ready for you for valentine's day. It's already smelling Exquisite It's ready to perform tonight. All right I'm looking for this junction point on this board C What does it say c 130? This would be some good stuff qi five and c 135 qi two qi one Four there's five Okay, I found five Now There's the four right there That's right there Okay, all right. This is right here So looking at the screen right there Let's see. I want to make sure it's the same Way on yours. I think I'm gonna have to have it this way That let me find the trace Somebody said Cover me in old spice and Put me out. There we go. Sorry about that. This is a live show remember So we're up here qi five right here with my Finger is And we're going right here That trace right there Is the one from the picture right there right there right there there Well Sorry there There we go. So that's what we got to do cut this trace Up in here Up in here up in here. Yeah, I go make me cut that trace right there right there Yeah, I'm gonna make me cut this trace Okay Let's go ahead and uh do that Like an icky did And then we'll see If it fixes it So there is an audio issue with most of them that they don't pre-produce the audio naturally on the on the pvms on the rgb line Specifically I think there's one of them that does mark. I'm not sure which one The other one's a little easier. All you do is cut a cable. It's this cable Because I tried it here and it didn't help There we go. Okay. Let me see here. We're back over q five I'm looking at why I'm moving around. Sorry Here we go This is where Right there I'm real close. I can get I'm close. I can get in here I'm real close. I can get in here Cuts like a knife But it feels so right cuts like a knife I feel so right. This looks like a Let's Let's get a little alcohol in here. That's what you gotta do. You always gotta add a little alcohol to the situation to make it Clear it up a little bit sometimes Right, let's see how we did I'm gonna take a little 91 percent. No, this isn't 91 percent. This is just a bottle Bulk bottle got 99 percent. We're still got some trace. It looks like right there. Let me show you Still this is uh Well, that's not wanting to cut so easy so See that we'd at least have it exposed Right there. There you go To cut on it a little more In the sense you'd be deep enough Yeah, that's cut now I can see it. It's severed. Let's see if I can Reflect that sorry. I know the camera is like kind of all over the place Try to get it right in the center of your screen right there If you could see it, but it's definitely cut right in there But before I Before I put this all back together We can always Look at that old nasty flux that's on here. That's just Look at that Get that old nasty flux that's up here that's next to this It's just left on this board But we'll It's from the factory too. Look at that. Well anyway That should be good on that trace cutting We'll get a multimeter out make sure Yeah, it's a circuit that and for some reason it's the original design Was intended to mute the audio On this So I don't know why that is but that's always the way it's been so This trace would normally run from here Okay, see it's definitely cut Because it's not beeping Whoops. Sorry. I know I'm off. I messed up. Okay Sorry about that One day. I'll remember everything I'm supposed to So if I look in here I'm gonna probe this end And then that should come across here to this normally But I'm not getting any noise. So there's no continuity between those points If I flow back up here Should get some Should get some sound where So I do get some sound there where I get some exposed copper But then the other side I don't get any and then the other side here. So It's definitely severed And let's hope that's it. That's all that's supposed to be done for this mod Simple stuff and then we'll test it. We'll have to get the RGB cables But now we can put all this back together and give it a shot. So Go ahead and put all this together before we put our plate back on there See I didn't I was hoping to not have to take that off. But again, when you have fat fingers, it's okay. You could take the Take the plates off Should just help things align better when I try to test it Let's face it It looks better when you put it all together So let's hope that's all it takes for that audio mod and then we can move on It's a pretty simple board For an input board one of the most simple Look I'll show you This board Has In line a and a line b right over here. You see those easily those are those are both Composite video In I mean it'll take multi formats for different regions of composite videos pal or ccam All ntsc's etc. So you got line a and line b here And they each have an audio in and an audio out And you should still be able to like hook a composite up to here Sorry the inputs and then You can generally put a Both the left and right audio in for some reason in the input and output and it should sync them together just on the input line I it doesn't work I don't think it might I think we'll see if that works on this in a second But so you've got both composite now if you look over here for s video you've got an s video input But you only got one single audio Jack in so it doesn't matter you have no output and you have no video out for that either And then you got this super archaic VTR input That is just a tape recorder. That is like a proprietary sony thing Nothing really that great. I've been trying to find some cables on that thing Replacement cables, but just to show it off. I don't have any equipment that I put this I believe just inputs it's It's going to come off of more of like What was the other format to vhs? I don't know beta max. That's what I don't know why that was stumping me for a second But beta max professional beta max equipment would have had Output that would have had this connector Just a more solid connector or Sony proprietary thing And then if you look down here, we've got just rgb in and sync This one actually doesn't even do composite video or component. I'm sorry And then you see there's no audio input at all So what we're doing now is We've turned off the mute Hopefully on line a at least So what should happen is we should put our video in here in line a will not be muted Right, we just turned off the mute is what I think we did because that's why it mutes it out because there's no Audio input jack on it to begin with So what we're going to do is we'll put rgb in and sync And then we'll put audio into audio line a and hopefully we'll hear something on the speaker Okay Here we go Let's go back to the face for a second. So probably need to set this back up To look over here Because we're going to run a test We'll reinstall this Let's see It's a pretty simple mod Compared to well most mods. I think it should just slide down in there All right, kind of It's got like some Hooks on here. Okay Slides into the Fitted plastic. Oh A little tricky There we go Right there All together Ready for a test. Let's see. All right. Let's get some rgb lines hooked in here What do you think if it works? You got to give me a like button on there if you haven't already. Let's check this out Let's get this going Let's get that even A little bit There we go Let's get an rgb connector in there. Here we go. Let's see how this works out You know, these look like they've had better days Hopefully no problems We'll have to grab another set if we do end up with some problems. All right That's connected. I'm gonna get a y Cable if I can find one don't seem to have any of those handy So We'll just go for it. See we've got power to the super. Let's see Okay, everything's looking good. I was just making sure taking one last check Looking at all the stuff Let's do this Let's turn the jazz down for a second. We're gonna Power this up Everything seems normal so far. We're on actually the wrong input We should be over here There we go Okay Oh Something is going on with that cable. Come on. Come on, baby. Now. That's nothing. That's got to do more with the The SCART cables set up So let's test it if it doesn't work. We may have to switch it. There we go. It seems to be stable now Okay, let me turn that Circle off Turn it all off. Let's see What happens when I play a game that should have some sound If I get any sound Yeah, see look at that thing So who turned the lights out that cabling is That's a problem. I'm too rough on the cables This stuff sound right away Oh, I heard something hang on I don't know if you can hear it Come on. Come on. Come on. Sorry about that. Okay. I'm sure you're done You're done probably listening to that So it works Now there's a lot of feedback in there and that's from the crappy, uh Let me see if I can find a better adapter here Wow, it's humming bad It shouldn't be humming that bad There's a lot of interference Holy crap. That's a ton of interference All right, that's a better setup, but I'm Like not getting any interference or anything So I don't know how that shows up in the thing. I'm sure you can hear something, right? Maybe you can probably hear me talk and the music play at the same time There's probably a noise gate, but I'm sure you can hear that a little bit Uh, it's working and it's plugged in stereo audio In both line a or in line a's input and output And it will make noise Through the output if I leave that plugged in on plug the input it'll still make noise. So it's combining those doing that. Okay That's one thing Let's see Yeah Volume controls work Let's see if the audio will come through on I'll tell you if it comes through on line b Uh, or if it's just a demuting line a see I just unplugged the input and it's still making noise. No, so It's only applicable to line a For the audio it just that's the only one that can be connected to The rgb line there, but it works. Now you have rgb with with audio if you want it Excellent let's get things resituated here for a second. So that's how you do that modification. That's a pretty simple mod That's better How fun was that? There we go I like I like that thing All right, let's move you out of the way Tilt you back that way Let's see. Yeah, that's good There we go And it's backwards or something somehow, but it's okay That's funny just reversed itself the camera did This is one of my own Kenny Uh, but I think it's already somebody already wants it This is what's trying to get it done. Let's go back here There we go So audio is working. It's been the jazz up a little bit How long is how long we doing we're on for an hour good. Let me get a drink Not a Where's my fizzy water? I don't know what happened to the water. Yeah, so that's pretty easy modification if you have that What do we need to Tony Montana of a video wall? Oh I put a big pile of uh Baking soda here on the counter No, pardon me. Here we go So how we doing out there one hour in is everybody got the audio mod it's works great Thank you, Aniki again Back over looking at his Modification works perfectly. So there's the rgb in Let's see Yeah, see There's a voltage that comes up here. It says right there d108 D1 where's my cursor d108 over in this area right in the middle of your screen circled in pink It says It's for the audio mute Right there And that's where you sever it. I guess So it doesn't do it engage it First you get the rgb then you get the crt then you get the women Can't get the women first Let's go. Let's go Here we go So that's it the mod works great. Thank you, Aniki Thank you for sending it to me. I mean, I'm not gonna be a jerk I think he sent me this a long time ago and I just I put this on the back burner forgot about it and uh Or forgot about haven't been able to do it, but we got it done here today Hey race These are those The real deal, right? This is the one they charge you extra for when you go to cosco the Coca-Cola from mexico It actually tastes better a race for any welcome in this Is a tricky one this next thing Because what you got to do on this is cut You got to cut some things you got to cut some stuff around the anode cap To get the anode cap out. Somebody was asking some questions. I'm sure I missed them by now This looks like the chat's cleared up Oh Yeah, I know right I normally don't drink this stuff But literally there's no more waters down here That doesn't go down like Like a coke in a can To me tastes like it's burning Your throat when you drink it you can't drink it fast Or anything it just feels like it's constantly burning. I don't really like anything out of a can Glass is always better Blast again, right? I know And it wouldn't even be that big of a deal if the same companies just kept using the same glass bottles and switching You just send them back into them and they sterilize them and reuse them it's um Okay, what? Color temperature you calibrate the monitors too. So this one has two color temperatures So as long as it's kind of close to that and all the colors are pretty much lined up in um You just have to realize one has a little bit more blue in it one has basically less blue So the cooler temperature the higher temperature like 9,300 That's the setting I like is the blue temperature But that's not the warmer temperature the warmer temperature is the lower one But this monitor has those two color temperatures And uh, we'll check them when they're done, but if you really want to do that right you got to check out the stick freaks Dan's videos I'm had a color calibrate with the color monkey Because that's the way you get it precise And then you can color you get each set and then you just switch between them Like I said, I like the cooler color personally It's nice to have different ones Yeah, does japan does run off something and has different colors then So there's a lot of people who really into that Studying the differences there and what it was actually looking like it's got a lot to do with the ambient light in the rooms Uh in each country and what people are used to and what their eyes are used to and where they go What they favor just unnaturally um or naturally in their own heads But it's more of a product of environment Okay It's been good enough. Let's see All right, I'm still getting music. I'm still getting music there So we got it all we got it all good 14 f5 you that would have a good picture. It should have much a much sharper image With a bvm tube in it. Let's see if we can get this That's this done Rgb will come in just straight through the raw but if it's You still gotta um You still have color drives on the crt that are like from uh, they're either potentiometers or they are and it's easier when they're in the service menu And you can get in there and get in the drive and bias For each color temperature setting and you can adjust the numbers for red green and blue in there and then make it intensify or Pull it down some And you pull up a color calibration screen as you do that And you know if you don't have the equipment you can go in there by your eye and try to Eyeball it but you'll never get it right without doing earth perfect like that But that's not something that um That takes a lot of time and that's not something like my my professional Work is mostly doing the hardware stuff Because that's something that most people if they really want to do they could probably learn it and buy all the equipment um Cheaper than it would cost me to do it and it's all like I think Here's the thing when it comes to calibration I found this not not all of you like the screens to look the way the same way You might like it uncalibrated a little bit Personally and i'm not saying that there's anything wrong with that Right, so whatever you like I can't um when I when I calibrate some stuff and I send pictures some people like why Why does it look like this? I'm like I put it to a certain standard kind of and then I get it to a pretty good starting point And then I let people go in unless it's something that's Full like this one's going to have to be adjusted pretty well because it's going to be all internal adjustments after it's done But if it's got service menus And they're pretty easy to get through and I've made videos on how to adjust things Then I tell people go in there and if you because some people don't want They don't really um, I found people too that have complained about just Different ways I've calibrated it um And then I'm like well I have to then I'm explaining why it's calibrated that way And why there's these certain things on the um On the screen and why it looks the way it does um, but You know if you like A certain way something looks well who might tell you it's your piece of hardware It's not illegal That's the cool thing about the machine it can do a lot more Oh Let's let's see what's going on behind this thing again This definitely is going to make a lovely monitor for somebody sometime It has A very good tube on it. I've tested the tube. It's got a lot of life on it burns bright And it just needs Just needs to have this Board removed and serviced. Let's see if we can get it out. This one's a bit tricky We got to get this uh You got to get this out Up in here try to get you a better view Sorry What you looking at? See this is completely coated the flybacks coated in are sealed in With the coating I'm going to try to get this so you get a closer view trying to wheel. Come on, baby Wheeling and dealing here we go It's better better Hope you're not too seasick It goes coal This is what I'm talking about this this stuff, but um for the longest time It was just so intimidating that I would service the monitor and leave that in there So what we'll do Just to give ourselves a little space. I'm going to go ahead and set that out of the way It's a power supply. We'll get the neck board out of the way too again And same thing with the input board We'll remove all those boards so we can get that Mainboard free There we go. We've got a bunch of Cables that have been disconnected a couple more will just can get to disconnected when we get us some space In here and we can actually get to them Disconnect that one a couple more back in there Uh, but we've got to get to this now So let's see how we can attack this let's see if we can get up under there with I usually use a little Uh thing here. Let me see damage anything. Obviously, that's a big point is to not damage anything So I gotta get something that could get under that Kind of glue right here I'm gonna do it like that. Let's try this We're just gonna work our way Break it free a little bit And I'm just kind of sticking See I don't what I don't want to do is I don't want to damage the cap. So I don't want to come in there with really a knife But that Epoxy just breaks free. See how it wasn't like it's way more intimidating than actually is look at that Right there. You see that process that was it That was it Now it's all gonna be easy to get off And get our see but she still this does does pull apart So you don't want to pull on it too much I want to get just this bit off like the You know tube more than anything Just give me a little space there. All right So this one has a resistor, right? This is the resistor that is the discharge resistor So it's already discharged. This is not so this is not a discharge guide though. So That's it. There's not going to be any zap here. It's discharged. There is no zap At any any type. I mean nothing There we go That's how you get that out though with that Epoxy there Then we can come up in here We can use our knife up in this spot Actually just cut a lot of that away up here. So it doesn't Have to worry about it. She's not going to cut the glass But you can cut the uh, I just don't want There to be a bubble So you cut this side. You don't want to cut the side with the cap on it That's fragile fragile almost there That's good enough That's good enough. Okay Here's We're gonna do we're gonna clean that a little bit There we go Now we can move all this out of the way. We'll slip that off Just like that, right? Is there a cable I have to undo? Yeah, I do have to undo Do I have to undo a ground cable over here? Actually, let's undo it over here Part here on the resistor Okay, because that's coming with us That will be oh you're coming with us to you skunk Are you being so skunky? Gray cables got to come with us slide this pole Board back it out a little bit books. Here we go Clear clear Not clear. Okay We're getting there. I promise this bundle cable is staying with the yoke and the monitor So is this Right. No, that's not that's gonna come with me, but I gotta get that. All right That's saying There's something blocking me There we go There we go Got a couple cables to undo back up here That one's just that's it There we go That took a while not exactly Not exactly the easiest thing to get out of there, right? It's one of the more complicated ones to get out Some tools out of the way that we don't need anymore At least not this moment And then we'll see what our board looks like here a lot of going on here So here you're asking about colors even on this this is Where you can adjust Red green and blue on this v-board For this monitor Sub red and blue controls Right there red and blue Controls by those potentiometers And there's the two there's the two colors. You can't you can't control green. It's just built in It's crazy There's RGB So the deflection capacitors are what we are worried about Sub Jake Brandon anthony welcome in So this is the deflection zone At the bottom of your screen This whole area These caps are the ones that needs to be replaced the most all these in this area Still hot a little bit We're on the flyback. That's we're gonna That's the ones we get a Exchange All right, so as I Do that and start to pull up Hopefully a better view For everybody There we go on that Maybe we can go also look at What the cap kit looks like for this? All right, we're gonna change a lot of these caps in here To do so We may just cruise right and then to start removing them as we go and then write them down And we'll do them in that fashion Go ahead and get the fr three zero One heated up Yeah, I don't know the overhead cam always gives me trouble when I do this split screen. It's not very high quality I do see the flicker. Hopefully it'll fix itself if it does not I'm going to go back to another screen and then we'll reset it Because if uh when I was using it earlier it doesn't it's it's an it's an OBS not It's a cheap camera issue OBS issue. I'm not sure exactly Because it's not it's all a single cord on this thing. It is just a streaming camera You see how it's starting to get choppy and stuff. Oh, it's such a pain in the neck Let me go over here Yeah, it's still got them in there, doesn't it? But when I do it and I let it sit for a second It generally goes away That's a problem. It's deceiving So I know it's not an issue with the camera connection It's something going on where the two cameras are running simultaneously on OBS And it doesn't like it And you're both running the same frame rate. That's the only thing if I run on different frame rates, we're getting worse All right You know that sound It's the sound of a heating up Heating up my fr 301 still There's some screws in this board. I know it Let's get those out so we can get the plastic plate removed Yeah, thanks. It's okay. I was aware Sometimes you just have to live with things I haven't really figured it out, but I also haven't figured out a camera Good enough to replace it with That doesn't cause me more issues Unfortunately because sometimes it works fine And then it's it really is Action up more today than it does normally I think that's it. I think that's all the screws There's the plastic plate and I'm talking about get rid of this Remove it and then We've got the board right here. That's what we're working on. All right Let's do this Let's do this. We're gonna go ahead And start removing caps just right over here from this side out Probably start you can see right here. This is marked where this is the horizontal deflection That's written right here and Let me For this segment. I will change the camera up a little bit. So it's going to flicker for a second I'm going to do a camera roll That's the right way. Okay That way you're kind of looking down the same View from the desk as I am Hopefully it'll give us a pretty good view. I know it's flickering a little bit right now. Give it a second to Hopefully stabilize It's really acting up today though And maybe that's why that lame company. What's their name? Logitech has been putting their streaming camera Advertising it as the overhead one as a Kickstarter campaign They were supposedly coming out with a really nice Overhead camera, but that was a myth because it was a Kickstarter campaign for something that's not even Probably coming out All right, we'll start with this one. I'm just going to take notes here This is c5 35 And it is a 250 volt 4.7 Uf or micro farad capacitor right here Gosh, stop it camera. Please give us a break. Huh? Give us a little love So that's cap one You want to go in the lowest setting? This is a board that is not like the last boards with the l5 that has a thick thick board. This is Thinner or fine board, but the the traces and everything are older Much more fragile and do not need as much heat to get To get going so just make sure your tools getting clean Let's go for c519 next 519 let's see what we got here in 519 we got a 25 volt 220 Capacitor 25 volt 220 moving on here. Let's see we've got those Let's just swing around. I don't think there's anything. There's one right here in the middle that we'll go ahead and grab It is c511. It's a smaller one. I don't believe it's bipolar. I hope not No We'll go ahead and grab it though Let's see what we got here Yeah, I don't know man. I was disappointed too because I was hoping It's hoping that would be a good solution right Maybe one day it'll come out, but I'm not I'm not I mean I don't see any reason for that kind of a company to be doing that Unless we're just worried that's gonna I don't know Maybe it is a really expensive camera to make All right, this is a 50 volt 0.47 micro farad 511 See 511 and that one's snugly Snugged way up in here next to this heat sink right here down right there Now we'll go Over and get this one 541 right here Do-do do-do Do-do-do-do-do 50 volt 4.7 50 volts 4.7 micro farads Let's see what we have next That's that whole block. You can follow the line and I may replace some of these others in this area, but not to begin with 570 right here. We're gonna hit this one Next and then we'll go from there Oh 50 volt 10 See what's next See there's other ones. We're gonna probably work on this is an audio block Up in here It's not really important this block But if we go under that block, there's rgb matrix and then That's over on that side This could seal be deflection caps over in these areas. We're going to take care of two But let's go with these big guys down here five. Let's stick in this area and then we'll move our way out there Do like a loop Let's get c5 32 see five three two 250 volt 22 micro farad c5 32 Oh folks, I know we're really chilling in here relax and I hope you're having a wonderful valentine's day for real And if you haven't already and you just showed up, please do me a favor Drop a like button down there for me It's really all that I asked for If you're able to do so and you like the show do that so that Other people who want to see the show will get notified. It's on please. Thank you Oh, wonderful always always always The engagement on the show and with the show with the audience. I love it Just have a good time Zez and I had a wonderful time in the last stream and So it's good to get back in the hang of things get some work going Chill out a little bit today before you got to go out and Get a fancy meal probably or Do who knows what whatever you're going to have to do later today. Let's just chill out Fix some old crt stuff All right Continuing on our adventure down the circuit board c5 0 1 Is next Come on out of there five zero one two coals upset 25 volt 220 25 volt 220. Okay. It's this one next to this. This needs to come out. I'm sure Yeah, 581 up here. We're gonna get this one right here 581 do that one next 81 25 volt 100 Microfair it we're gonna go this direction No, no, no, no, no. What about you big boy 544 you're coming See 544 you're coming out This is a big one Well, I'm you could make it. I mean, I don't know about instantly irreparable. Maybe if you broke a key part um It's really just important to check your work when you're doing this per vertex, you know, it's not Man 25 volts 680. I don't know if I think I have that probably hopefully sorry so 544 um But yeah, I mean it's like anything you could definitely mess it up If you've got a cap value wrong, I mean, I don't know that it would You may not even be able to tell if it's close enough value If it's way off, maybe it'll damage it Maybe it won't function It's easy. I mean that's the thing is these are not easy to work on because you got to be careful Of what you're doing pretty much the whole time We still got these all that are under my hand right here is To get rid of like these got to go pretty much It's not small cap kit Because we're already up to Removing one two three four five six that was our tenth cap we removed And we we're about One third of the way probably All right back over in this section down in here Let's try that a little bit. Yeah, see the camera now has calmed down a bunch. It's like It's having a heated moment five zero two But this board's not as difficult to work on as the newer stuff either I guess it's got its own little quirks and things but It is more parts though So it tends to be more work. It's just the boards are simpler to work on Yeah, this was a big big kit Let's get this It seems to run pretty efficient because it takes a long time for I mean a lot of times these stay Good for a long time and then you're gonna I'm gonna reflow solder on a good portion of this entire Area 50 volt 4.7 But it's a good size kit and then we again we need to Just watch these parts in here as we remove them make sure that we don't Remove the wrong thing Going up here now Still working in this cluster And there's the potentiometer. I believe this one right here will be the next capacitor. This is c503 is Same thing 50 volt 4.7 505 is next right up here. Yes 50 volt 10 Let's see. What's next Let's go with this one 527 527 527 50 volts 0.47 Microference What's next go ahead and keep on rolling with all these on the right hand side Managed so many here 525 522 Yes 50 volt 1 522 I'm just checking some double checking some of this work to make sure that nothing's wrong. We're gonna go 573 next 65 after that Then we'll see what happens. We're gonna get rid of those two first Right there These two the funk that man. I can literally hear coal snoring on the couch upstairs Sleeping 50 volts 10 For 573 go right above it. There we go. Let's get this one out There we go 565 Is a 250 100 Okay, we'll go one more on this sheet One more on this sheet This is going to be capacitor number 18 Let's get this cluster 551 is the big one. I'm getting rid of it first Going to suck it all out. Gonna heat this out. I'm going Going to get on out of there See this one is a These are all elnic apps which just Some of them are pretty good. Some of them don't last that long, but And what do we expect right 16 volt 1000? We can't go can't go for 50 years all of them One more on the page 566 50 volt one That is our 19th capacitor folks Our 19th capacitor has just been removed And I think now we're closing on to the second half We're getting into the second half of this cap cap. Let's go 557 557 come on 557 50 volts 50 volts 0.47 Micro farads 20th capacitor We just broke the 20 spot there Let's move on to see 554 554 now we're going places We've got one left in this cluster over here when them will be good 567 Oh, there we go 50 volt 10 So yeah, look at that. We've gotten about 23 of them out. Well, I know 22 It's all these these To there I only get these two Let's go ahead and get I'm going to go ahead and bump down and get these two right here I think let's do all three of these. I guess this is a 5 7 7 5 7 8 And finally What that one is 5 no 8 0 4 8 0 4 That's not the right one this thing the one I was looking at 5 6 3 is the one I was looking at We're not doing 8 0 4 Doing these three right here What we've got here is a failure to communicate Here we go 50 volt 10 577 is a 50 volt 10 Next up 578. Let's see what we've got there 578 25 47 25 volt 47 Micro farads 563 50 volt 10 50 volt 10. Let me give a little bit more. You know, we're just chilling out I'm going to give you a little bit more jazz music as I talk because there's not really anything for me to talk about as I do this except You know just walk you through it And I wish I could sit here and just tell you funny stories or something But I've got to kind of pay attention to what I'm doing or I'll miss my place and And lose something so I'm sorry. I can't really tell you So I'm super funny right now While I'm doing this Um Because I got to get right Got to get it right Move over to a new cluster I'm gonna start with c5 29 You know who I feel bad for today all the guys all the dudes out there that are like What between the ages of? 13 and 16 17 that think some girl likes them and that girl just wants them to be Their boyfriend for today so she can have a boyfriend on valentine's day Hear that old game Why didn't you get me flowers Girl you and I had never talked before now you want a boyfriend on valentine's day Do I have sucker written on my forehead? But I did at one point because I Probably the first girl ever asked me that I probably did go buy her set of flowers stupid And you bring her the flowers and she acts like you're a weirdo. You're like, what the heck man You asked for flowers and now Actually bring you flowers. Oh I remember what it was. I brought the flower I had the flower sent to her house And she acted like I was a weirdo because I couldn't send them to her in class so that she could be seen with them, right? So, yeah, it was all about image. It wasn't about loving me It wasn't about wanting to get to know The crt man. No, you're good. Tookie dookie. We got it. We're still going a little bit Get more campster removed More dreams to fulfill 572 50 whole one There we go. No way No, man girl didn't have no interests Was that trying to make herself look cool But yeah, and I remember because I and I didn't take it too far because she had an older brother Who was like a real nut like crazy guy and he became a became a navy's Navy seal in real life. And so Probably a good thing to have heard that so he would have definitely been pissed off at me 50 volt one That's the cluster there's all gone. Okay Yeah, I don't see too many more left here. Let's go over This is the Zone we just got rid of this is the last Kind of big zone over in this area grab this 518 first. It's a big one 35 volt 470 this one's we gonna grab next I think there's a couple over in this spot. I see him Got this one next in here Can't tell what number that is though 50 volts 0.5 83 Of course, there's no rhyme or reason to this Numbering a lot of times they're all just over the place See what we got here 5 83 50 volt 47 But we have a different brand here. We have a rubicon Retro rubicon. Hey Ariel Look them in Dude, I was extra smash for josh. Are you talking about the mr Bean episode where he gets the new tv and he goes in and he basically strips down naked to get the reception to work And he has to sit in the box to watch it. I hope that's the one you're talking about because funny enough I watched that one pretty recently There's a crt episode it's like it's like one of the early ones number two is the one I was seeing kind of All those are good. Good. We're gonna get these over here 5 2 6 and then 5 84 Yeah, that was it That was a classic, right? 25 7 Microfair 584 50 volt 22 And we're about to be up to About to be up there. We're getting up close to that 38 capacitors So with two full pages, we're gonna hit that C811 c5 43 4.7 So here we go. We've got this one coming out Let's see what we've got here. Oh, sorry about that. I don't know I'm whacking the can't everything Oh c571 Two more over here 5542 And 559. Oh, I'm sorry. I know I'm hitting that 542 50 volt 10 49559 559 let's just skip that line. It's actually I've skipped two lines I got two extra on here. So that's gonna get me actually finally up to I think that's what I've done so far 39 38 38 or 39 capacitors. We'll look at the list here Pardon me 559 5950 volt 10 That's all The camera's getting bad on me. Sorry guys Let's give me a little trouble now. I don't know why All those caps are gone. All those are gone. All those are gone The question is How many of these do I want to get rid of up here too? Probably want to do some of these. These are all capacitors up in here that I need to get rid of in this All right, let's go 547 We'll see what that is 547 160 2.3 Who f and then there's two smaller ones next to that I can Oh, there goes five 591 50 volt 2.2 So you do have to be able to tell the difference between a 2.2 and a 22 Right They're going to look the same size, but you got to make sure that you can see that little dot in between the twos or not If it's the decimal points there So you're two wildly different Capacitors all right next is 549 50 volt 10 The rest of these over in this area are audio capacitors audio capacitors There's one more in here. That's not it's c 579 has to do with one of the voltages So we will change that one That's our last one is up here 579 Oh, this is beautiful 25 volt 47 Excellent There you go Cap master we're moving all these bad boys. Look at this Total of No scratch outs here. That's 19 one scratch out here. That's 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 It's got 43 deflection caps And then you got a reflow solder on there. That's just the This board this one board There are 43 caps out That's what they all look like Right there 43 caps how beautiful Okay, let's send this to the side 43 caps See how much Soldiers in here Nice big crown of solder right there. Oh, that was nice That wasn't the wisest maneuver This stuff usually is not stuck that hard though. There we go Sutter blob Let's see how bad this side looks Yeah That's a lot of It's a lot of dust right there try to peel that ceramic layer off that filtered see if you keep that filter any longer I'm not sure How many more uses I can get out of it? Maybe one more round I have to go back. There we go Oh, I must forget to put the front end on there off let it cool down Cut that off Let it cool A bunch of that junk out. I know I knocked a Thing or two in there Now I'm going to take a second kind of clean this stuff up Hey snuffer stuffer happy valentine's day Let's give it a little brush Oh Dusty Make sure I'm making sure nothing else looks bad or anything After I clean it I'll look at it a little closer To one more thing Good stuff there Folks we're at 1245. How long is our stream going two hours and a half two and a half hours? How much time it took to do that modification and then let me move that and then we were able to Get this board decapped and then I'll need to go in and make the cap kit And recap it That will be step two So maybe we could pick up on that Tomorrow what I'll do is I'll make the cap kit. I might go in and start doing the recapping tonight and then Maybe I'll come back on and we can check out the tv tomorrow or we'll finish up the recapping. I mean, it's not It's not going to be anything that crazy I can see some spots on here where some caps were bad. This one looks like it was bad Yeah Definitely have some electrolytic fluid there but There you go. I mean this will get a lot of this stuff's going to have to get a free flow and some solder also So there's still quite a bit of work to do I get I get You're asking about caps jake. I uh, I get a ton of caps like at once I don't try to Like this stuff will get reflowed. I don't try to wait and get them individually. I prefer to have them here to be ready and you get a better price if you have them in bulk, but It's not always easy keeping everything. All right. I'm not going to do that yet I'm not going to reflow the solder yet I think that's Going to be enough for today on this stream. I've enjoyed The time we're not going to finish up our lovely gift on today's stream But maybe we can get it done and have a late gift tomorrow. I just really wanted to Come back check you guys out. Let everybody know that I'm in here working having a good time. Hope you're having a wonderful day Thank you all for joining me today as I worked on this thing Um, really the big part is the first Probably half of the stream where we went through and we did the modification to this set. That's the most important thing So if you're looking how to add audio If you want to know more about that go back to the beginning portion of the stream and then Okay, we're just removing capacitors It's just been a fun day to sit and hang out and kind of chill relax and do an old-fashioned bunker episode Get things ready for a good restoration here Anyway, you all be good to each other. Have a wonderful day and I will see you all in the next stream
