Color of peoples faces are not right!

I have had this machine f or about 6 months in my theater room, (very little usage time) and the color is way out of whack on the dvd player! I thought it ws the tv, but turned to cable mode (HD and Regular) and the color is fine. When I put in a DVD disk the colors are no where near what the should be, Charlie and the chocolate factoy is a color filled movie that on this machine is drab, dull, and the people look like ghosts! what can i do to fix this?

Have you tried swapping cables to see if you have a defective cable, or just checking to make sure all the connections are tight? I had strange color when I changed my dvd player and finally traced the problem to one of the component video connectors being slightly pulled off of the back of the dvd player.

Sony-i need one TINY little part!!!

Well, I didn't log on to say this, but mine has been messed up for a long time. The first one I bought didn't work at all, but I got a new one,ALMOST right away. The new one, after a few months started changing the video input on the TV when I tried to hit volume up and changed the function on the unit itself(DVD,tuner,etc) when i hit volume down. I color coded the million button remote for quick fixing while watching a flick. With a little patience, and considering the price, its ok.However, I need the little connector that plugs into the back of the thing so that I can hook up all 6 speakers. I lost the one for the subwoofer somehow. Anyone have an idea, or one you're not using? Call me if ya want to! (330-714-1592)
Thanks!!

Which is the maximum duration of the calcium cleaning cycle

Hello Fellow Espresso Maker
We at Expressfix recommend you descale every 6 month depending on water quality and usage. We tell our clients every 6 month to prevent scale build up and proper operational status for normal usage(2-3 drinks daily). Poor water quality leads many future preventable service calls.
Thanks

Only one temperature control??

Good day,
Yes, they are made. The temperature in the fresh compartment will be no issue, since you have control in that compartment.
The engineers designed the balance between the two compartments so the freezer would be normal if the following conditions applied.
1. The room temperature is between 70 and 90 degrees.
2. The machine has normal usage. I.E. 8 to 20 door openings of the fresh food door.
The freezer would start getting warmer if the room temperature dropped much below 70 degrees. or..
If the machine had extremely light usage with very few
door openings, or a combination of both situations described above.

With dual controls, and both set at normal, the above conditions would occur anyway, except you could over ride the normal settings to compensate.

Many people have this setup, and experience little trouble, but without knowing your life style replacing it would be your choice based on the facts given.

Thanks for using FixYa

Black and White instead of color

Assuming you are using the VS-2 with your system. I have experienced the same problem when I fiddle with equipment. Each time it is due to the S-video plug from the VS-2 cable becoming loose or detached. Make sure every cord is re-inserted into the back of the LS 38.

People complain they can not hear me when using headset

Aparently over time the oils off of your face get to the microphone cover which is a sort of grey hardened foam, & it starts to decompose the material effectively "stoping up" the mic. You may be able to scrape off the outer layers, or just snip a little off of the very end. Be sure not to take off too much or you risk the possibility of cutting into the mic itself!
