Check all your wiring especially grounds. I had a "rolling" picture which turned out to be a bad video signal ground. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See the 3 wires are linked up 100% thats Ground/ignition live and reverse live so it can only be this dam video lead,the old Fakra the turns it from Fakra to phono type.

Unplug / replug your fakra connector and leads, if you have a multimeter you can check any ground for continuity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok will try this again as i have tested it with a tester light and all works fine,you have just saved a camera from going the direction of the bin(for now) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMX Posted October 23, 2017 Share Posted October 23, 2017 I don't like my browser keeps stalling, not exactly crashing nor locking up: but just having periods of non-responsiveness. Despite applying a few tips from Mozillazine, which have increased the delay between the periods: it's still doing it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMX Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 Whilst I shouldn't be that surprised, I don't like that my phone camera can't film in darkness, even when illuminating the subject (Pipper doing her nightly zoomies) with a 30w LED spot light. I wanted a 20-30 second video of her, to upload to her social media. Apart from her zipping past me up the drive (2 seconds), I've shot 3 minutes of darkness with occasional white flash of spaniel as she zooms by me. For that matter, this morning I tried videoing Pipper's morning zoomies. Which was perfect apart, from the fact she combined her morning zoomies with the first 2 ablutions of the day 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zico Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 If it's any consolation, my father can't take photos/videos of our dogs without at least 25% of them literally being the dogs b*&&ocks 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stoney871 Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 Mine don't stay still enough either. I get the camera turned on and they bolt as soon as they see the LED light come on. Not photogenic at all (neither am I tbh). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMX Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Tonight's failed attempt, videoing Pipper reclining on her back, on my lap, whilst she ate pigs ear she'd got balanced on her chest. Cuddling her with my right arm whilst trying to keep the phone steady and in focus with my left. Result, 2 minutes of a blurry moving Pipper, but including such highlights as 10 seconds of a wet nose , 30 seconds of her rear left paw and 15 seconds of her forehead! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turvey Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Ha ha! Not easy taking video of pets. Last night I spent 15 minutes lying on the floor trying to get footage of our cats. I managed to get about 15 seconds of action One of them lies on his back underneath the couch and pulls himself along! Quite funny watching it and watching the other cats reaction to him! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMX Posted October 28, 2017 Share Posted October 28, 2017 Molly appears to have gone hunting whilst Pipper and I were out on her morning stroll I've just found a mouse head and some intestines in the airing cupboard a front leg in the bathroom, and the tail end on the 3rd stair down. I am however, missing a torso and the other 3 legs, I wonder where Molly has abandoned them?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ours brought a live one in, and then proceeded to let it go when my mum ran after him! It ran into the hoover, and that then got put outside, so we are not entirely sure if the mouse is still inside or not... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GMX Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 I don't like Twitter posting embedded videos "as Pipper" on her Twitter account. Whilst they are quite funny videos, they're not related to Pipper's content. When you're running a Twitter account as a marketing tool, for a future animal charity fundraising campaign, 2 minutes of people lighting their body gas emissions, or skateboarders being chased by angry members of the public aren't relevant. I can't exactly find what I need to do stop them doing it. I thought was related to 3rd parties accessing the app, if you revoke 3rd party permissions, the app doesn't work. Twitter is a lot easier to use with the app than with a PC/laptop Turning the app off and only posting from one of PCs, doesn't make any difference. So, it can't be the app, anyway Enabling various privacy settings, again, doesn't stop it. When you look at the "media" tab on Pipper's profile, the embedded videos aren't there, just the photos I've uploaded of Pipper. They aren't deletable as they aren't officially my media: but they do seem to expire after about 8-12 hours. However, I would like them not to have appeared in the first place.

zain611 Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 Just went out to pick up mum from a busy shopping area. Parked in a side road. Some lady crossed the road with a suitcase and hit the side of the bumper whilst she pushed it up the kurb. A few minutes later some lady with a loose coat hit the side of the car possibly with the metal zip. Honestly I just hate careless people 😤, luckily I can't see any marks so hopefully no bad damage. I had a similar issue with my last car where someone was carrying a heavy bag and came up from behind and accidentally smacked his bag on the rear bumper. Luckily there was no marks (probably because it was plastic) but still gets you worried. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenny Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 I don't like totalling the household bills to realize that after working 20 double paid hours overtime last week; it equates to the exact amount of money required to clear them all 😐 No bills but also not much left to show for the extra time spent working. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micro Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Don't like washing the car today and on applying the wax, noticing that the paint appears to be bubbling (or rust underneath?) under the drivers side mirror. Will need to take the door card off to check the other side of the metal. Reluctant to take to Ford again as requires an 80 mile round trip to a bodyshop, but if it's corrosion, they are sorting it after wriggling out of the tailgate paint rub problem.

Zico Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 I don't like the Post Office Money trying to squirm out of paying me the £5 promotional offer of switching my (former) credit card to paperless billing. The excuse that they are trying to use to refuse my complaint: "As you were previously an online user you would not have been eligible for the promotional offer.". The PO's own terms and conditions: 2. The Promotion is open to existing Post Office Money® credit cardholders only, who are UK residents aged 18 years or over. Nothing within the rest of the T&C's state only new online users/customers. I know it's only a fiver, but they aren't going to cheat me on this one! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't get crushed balls sitting the car? I have to pull trousers down slightly when I get in to avoid this, so obviously have to pull them up again when I get out, often have to tighten the belt as well which probably looks a bit dodgy to anyone watching...no I'm not fiddling down there! I don't crunch the handbrake ratchet though lol. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
