I just found out that I could plug my vinyl turntable into my digital Tv and play records through the video setting. I am indeed a happy bunny tonight |

26 May 12 - 04:43 AM (#3355809) Subject: RE: Tech: A happy little discovery From: SPB-Cooperator Ok this is going to get really techniocal now!!! (for me that is) Firstly in background, my turntable is part of a music centre system on which the amplifier finally died. The turntable has a split cable which ends up to two co-axial plugs (red and white), My TV also has 2 co-axialo sockets (also red and white). Then using the remote, selectring video as the source allows me to play the records. |

26 May 12 - 09:01 AM (#3355843) Subject: RE: Tech: A happy little discovery From: SPB-Cooperator probably I said it was very tech for me - jack plug on the inside, and a metal tube on te outside |

26 May 12 - 10:43 AM (#3355866) Subject: RE: Tech: A happy little discovery From: GUEST,leeneia Thanks for the info. I guess the sound system of your digital TV is taking over for the defunct amplifier. It's good to know that your 78's can still be enjoyed. |

26 May 12 - 11:50 AM (#3355886) Subject: RE: Tech: A happy little discovery From: Stilly River Sage RCA plugs. Your TV is probably programmable to stay on longer than 20 minutes - set it so it won't turn off or after X number of hours. SRS |
