@Dragon Lord: Jeez, $100 for a single line is ridiculous. I don't even know what could be offered to make that close to worth it. Errm


I learned today that there is likely no cover for any of my coworkers shifts from Wednesday onwards, and if not it means there's nobody to build the sales display or work the deliveries. Normally I cover it, but I wasn't scheduled. I could bring it up, but I don't see why I should need to tell management how to handle the scheduling for the store. Rolleyes

Heh, yeah, that sounds like their problem, not yours. I totally get why you wouldn't bring it up.

My RCA capture card is dying a slow, horrible death based on how noisy the video signal is. It's really bad; I shouldn't have recorded 20+ hours of footage for another game on it. I'm too lazy to trash it, but it looks absolutely awful.

Yeah, and turns out they had a plan for the display being built that I only found out about this morning. I get to build it tomorrow while also working a 520 case delivery, and better yet the stuff for the display is in said delivery. Wow

Was it 20+ hours of footage in one shot?! Blink Unsure

Hell no, it wasn't in one shot! I record in hour-ish increments, but I wasn't paying attention to the signal until now. The new one I got still has a little noise in the signal, but not nearly as bad; it might be an AV cable artifact that's not helping matters. I should switch up to direct HDMI -- there are conversion cables to let you directly hook an HDMI cable to the output.
