Maxell Digital Ear Buds for iPod

Paul Westbrook | 04 June, 2006 21:49

I lost one of the rubber ear pieces from the he sony ear buds that I mentioned a while ago.  This is the second pair that this happened to.  I was really frustrated, so I decided just to go to Walgreens and pick up a pair of ear bud that were there.

The best ones that I saw there, were the Maxell Digital Ear Buds.  They looked reasonable enough, so I picked up a pair.  The next day when I was going to work on the train, I tried them out.  They sound HORRIBLE!!!  The sound that these earbud make completely is completely muffled.

I thought that I could deal with these, but after two days, I went to Fry's and bought a pair of Sony MDR-EX71SL earbuds.  These sound so much better.

Problem with Harmony

Paul Westbrook | 04 June, 2006 01:34

Tonight I updated our Harmony remote to change some key configuration.  After the configuration was installed on the remote the screen displayed the following message

Go to Website to update settings

It took awhile, but I finally figured out what was happening.  I had configured the Harmony Remote application to "Watch download folder".  The problem was that the application saw the file as soon as the Firefox created the file, but before the download finished.  So the Harmony application sent a partial file to the remote. 

Once I turned off that setting and updated the settings again, the remote is working fine.
