    Use Win10 system as Bluetooth Speaker without user input?

    This unfortunately won't work for my case; I'm using an Apple phone to play music. I noticed that Microsoft has instructions to build a UWP similar to the Bluetooth Audio Receiver so I may just need to tinker around with the code and see if I can find a way to automate the stream opening...

    Use Win10 system as Bluetooth Speaker without user input?

    Long story short, I came across a Win10 PC that has a great built-in speaker. I wanted to keep it headless and use it to play music from my phone when I'm nearby, but all of the apps I can find that allow for Bluetooth streaming (ex. Bluetooth Audio Receiver by Mark Smirnov) need you to manually...

    Are there any good alternatives to iTunes for managing iOS devices?

    How does OneDrive fare when it comes to photos? I already use OneDrive for storing things but I'd like to keep the folder structure OneDrive has in Camera Roll.

    Are there any good alternatives to iTunes for managing iOS devices?

    I had to use iTunes to manage some iOS devices, and the Windows version of it is abysmal - slow, clunky, messes with other active programs, and device detection is hit and miss. Are there any good software alternatives that can manage files/images/music/backups for iOS devices?

    What could cause my internet to blip out every half an hour?

    Good to know. I might give the modem/router combo one more try with Netgear (with all the work I've had to do over the last year I'm not sure I'm ready to go from one possible problem vector to two) and then if not I found a decently priced modem and router (the latter of which is on dd-wrt's...

    What could cause my internet to blip out every half an hour?

    Thanks for the feedback guys. I do have a bit of an update; out of desperation while testing everything again I decided to purchase a completely new modem/router combo that was compatible with my ISP (Comcast; I'm in the US and they have basically a local monopoly where I'm at). Most of my...

    What could cause my internet to blip out every half an hour?

    I posted a while ago about an issue I was having with my Internet; how it would seemingly drop at random times, but not enough for the entire network to go down (my router still says it is active). I got a bunch of advice for things to try but sadly nothing seemed to help. Nine months later, the...

    Disc drive missing a torsion spring, sometimes won't take discs; is it salvageable?

    That info about the computer disc drives is good to know; I'll have to look into that next time I need to make any backups. I also realize this thread might have an obvious answer in hindsight but I wanted to make sure that the repair was something that could be easily done and not have any...

    Disc drive missing a torsion spring, sometimes won't take discs; is it salvageable?

    Yeah I can definitely find a parts drive or Wii and do the fix; I just got this Wii for REALLY cheap and was hoping to keep costs down. I was just using this Wii to make some GameCube backups (which ended up not going well anyway due to a scratched disc, but that's another issue) and to practice...

    Disc drive missing a torsion spring, sometimes won't take discs; is it salvageable?

    At least it's good to know fixing is still an option. Thankfully I lucked out and found out a buddy of mine did some DIY work of his own and has a for-parts drive he can let me borrow some pieces from. Also, since I have the console case off, I can manually move the plastic back into place once...

    Disc drive missing a torsion spring, sometimes won't take discs; is it salvageable?

    Came across a used Wii recently and found that it sometimes had trouble taking in discs; it will take it in about halfway, not go any further and then eject. Opened it up to clean it out and one of the springs in the drive assembly (the top metal part with all the white plastic parts) is...

    Hacking Questions about modding my 2DS with CFW and if I can keep using Pokémon Home

    The CFW you'd likely be installing (Luma) just adds some new features, workarounds and shortcuts to the OS, as well as allows custom apps/CIAs to be loaded. As long as you don't delete anything and follow the instructions properly (ie. don't brick your system), everything will look the same as...

    Modern .moflex decoder?

    I CRACKED THE CODE. After finding a compiled version of Gericom's decoder code (that wasn't from an archive of a download of a Russian forum post) and messing with FFMPEG with its outputted result, I figured out that Mobius still works with modern FFMPEG versions! You just have to go into the...

    Gaming Homebrew How to dump vWii Demos?

    I'm also looking for the same thing; have a bunch of WiiWare/VC that I'd like to dump from the vWii but can't find anything more specific than just dumping the entire NAND.

    Modern .moflex decoder?

    I'm looking for a program that can decode the 3DS format .moflex files into some other video format, but all of the programs I've seen so far rely on broken links and/or have bugs that don't allow them to work right. Is there a newer program I'm missing?

    PC keeps kicking me from games; at my wits end

    That's what I'm thinking too, but I'm also going to replace the router just to be safe. I definitely understand having a grounded coax is important; just wasn't sure if that was to blame for the readings or if the internals of the coupler really are shot. I'll be making a call to my ISP either...

    PC keeps kicking me from games; at my wits end

    Ok, this should hopefully be the last update: new router/modem is en route so that will rule that out. I also double checked my wires and everything in house is okay, but there's a grounded coax coupler outside that is reading open fault in both directions. Is this just because its grounded or...

    PC keeps kicking me from games; at my wits end

    I'd already looked through the hardware side of things, but I found an extra diagnostic tool on Windows and checked just to make sure; all came back clean. At least after all of this is over I can take solace in the fact that my hardware is (as of now, at least) in good shape. In the meantime I...

    PC keeps kicking me from games; at my wits end

    Wanted to post some developments (also to give hope if anyone is having the same issue because most info I've found on forums ends suddenly), the issues have become more sparse as time goes on but are still happening occasionally. Tried a USB Wi-Fi adapter, narrowing down software running at the...
