How to check TV Flyback

There are actually several kinds of tools that can be used for check whether flybak damaged. But we have a simple way we have always done for ascertain whether flybak damaged or is still good, before replacing the horizontal transistor. All it takes is a light bulb with an added Exciter 100Watt cable connection along approximately 25cm.
The trick determine if flyback damaged or is still good is as follows :

  1. Break up the relationship between the collector of transistor horizontal flyback-out. By (a) Open collector aspirated by means of the printed board solder, or (b) Remove the jumper cables if any, or (b) Cutting prited path.
  2. Ac volt-meter pairs of horizontal transistor base with a ground out.
  3. Turn on the plane a little while - there must be an ac voltage of about 1v. This is done is for ensure that the horizontal oscillator and driver are working horizontally.
  4. Replace light bulb between the collector of transistor flyback horizontal (light diseri the collector).
  5. Turn on the plane while alternately measured heater voltage, screen (screen VR max).
  6. If no defective flyback voltage means. Usually marked with a light bulb that lights a little brighter.
  7. If the flyback is usually a good heater ac voltage is approximately 1 to 2v, screen voltage around 150v. Usually marked with a light bulb that lights dimmed.
  8. Measurements must be done quickly, because if the plane using circuit protectionism - protectionism will actively work then.
Defective flyback symptoms include:
  • Tr horizontal collapsed immediately replaced by new
  • B + voltage drops

How to create selective color using Photoshop CS2

Selective coloring is a special technique used to enhance certain parts of an image. Its most often seen by completely desaturating the background of an image and leaving other elements of the picture completely saturated. While this may create a cool effect, its a "cliché" of sorts that beginners often over-use. I will show you the basics so you can get started, but I encourage you to be creative with it because you can create a lot of cool subtle effects with adjusting the saturation channels in an image. Before we begin, heres a quick example of what selective coloring can do. This is the image Ill be using throughout the tutorial.

 

    To begin youll obviously need an image to work with and a copy of Photoshop CS2. So first things first, open up your image and set up your workspace to your liking. If you ever need to reset the pallets to their default locations go up to the menu you and click on Window -> Workspace -> Reset Pallet Locations.

    Once you have your image opened up, look toward the bottom right of the screen and click on the "Create New Adjustment Layer", which looks like a little half moon. From there click on Hue/Saturation to open the Hue/Saturation dialogue. See the illustration below.

 

 

    From here you have a couple of options depending on how simple or complex your image is. In this case Im just removing the green color of the grass and leaves. In the illustration above click on the drop-down menu where it says "Master" and go down to "Green." Once there take the "Saturation" slider and drag it all the way to the left, or just type in -100. This should result in the following image:

 

 

Unfortunately, even though all the grass and leaves looked like they were all green, youll often find that when experimenting, often times every-day objects that you normally perceive as being one color are made up of several different hues in varying saturations. In this case theres a good amount of yellow hue. Where the drop-down menu says "Green" go ahead and switch to the Yellow channel and drag the saturation slider down to -100. This should clear the rest of this picture. If you ever need to get back to your hue/saturation adjustment player after you close the dialogue, just double click the icon for the hue/saturation layer, as illustrated below.

 

    So now the photo is done... 

 

    ...Or is it? Youll often find that when you edit one color channel, youll inadvertently desaturate something you didnt mean to because the colors are similar. Luckily we used a masked adjustment layer, so this is an easy fix! Notice next to your Hue/Saturation layer there is a white "box". This is your mask and it works similar to masking tape when you paint a room. You can paint with white and black and varying shades of gray. In our case the black will represent the masking tape. This can be easily remembered using the phrase "White reveals, black conceals." 

    Just for kicks lets re-saturate the leaves of the rose shown here. Were going to edit the mask layer, so click once on the white "box" next to the hue/saturation layer weve just made. It should have black brackets around it once its selected. As illustrated below. Also, now is a good time to have your pallet ready with some easy shorcuts. To reset your default colors to black and white, just type the letter "D". Also when masking its helpful to use the shortcut letter "X" to switch between black and white quickly.

 

    Next select your paint brush tool. If theres a picture of a pencil here click and hold to switch to the brush tool.

 

    Remember what I said earlier? Black conceals and white reveals. Go ahead and start painting your mask. You can adjust your brush size and hardness at the top. After you finish with your masking, your mask layer should look something like this. You really dont have to be exact with this.

 

 

And the resulting image. I didnt a wonderfully atrocious job with this, but you get the idea. 

 

 

 

 Now just one more tip before were done. Often times youll end up with a color that falls into more than one channel in the Hue/Saturation channel mixer. The best thing to do in this case is pick the color thats closest to what youre trying to change. In the following example, select "Blue" where it says "Master"

 

 

    And from there you can actually click on your image to sample the exact hue youre looking for.In the above example this would have saved you from having to desaturate both the green and the yellow channels (and possibly mess up another part of the picture you might not have to) and done the whole thing in one step. Here I selected the cyan channel and used the eye dropper to sample the exact hue and desaturated that tone by itself (and also lightened it because the grey and orange didnt look good.) Note the Ford logo is still blue and I didnt have to mask it off.

 

 

    One last note, you dont have to desaturate everything. You can also use this same technique to swap colors quickly and easily. Be creative and experiment!

How to Register a Domain Name for Your Blog Webpage

If you are going to start a new blog / website you should start with your own domain name. Even if you are starting out just as a hobby or for earning few bucks consider that your blog / website can grow bigger someday and when you want to move on you shouldnt change your url and lose everything.

Once you start a blog / webpage you start to build your content and increase your traffic you will get links from other pages and get your name noticed around the web. You must be sure that the name you advertise is a name you own. When you decide to move to your own URL you will lose all those links and visitors youve been working for.

Registering your own domain name doesnt require too much investment. You can just register a domain name with .com, .net, .org extension only with 10$. If you can spend 10$ for cinema tickets you should also spend it for registering your domain name.

Registering a domain name is owning an address for your blog / website. Sometimes people confuse registering a domain name with buying a hosting plan. Domain name is the address of your blog / webpage while hosting is for storing the content of your blog / webpage. Starting with registering a domain name will be enough if you want to stay amateur for a while. You can redirect this URL (web address) to any of the free content providers you have. (blogger and other services.)

Registering your own domain name is an easy process. However finding a domain name is the hard part. Considering the hundred millions of domain names already taken you wont be able to get the first name that pops into your mind. There are several domain name suggestion services which provides not taken domain names for a given keywords. When you finally find the perfect domain name for your new blog / website you just register it with a credit card and you are ready to go. When you register your domain name you can buy a hosting service for your needs and direct your domain name there or you can just continue using a free service for your content.

How to Add your RSS Feed to Your Facebook Page

Here is the Facebook Help page that confirms the removal of this feature.
http://www.facebook.com/help/?page=220304164665476

I am leaving the rest of this article in tact and will periodically check with Facebook to see if the feature is restored.

In the meantime you will need to manually post links to your blog posts or Hubpages articles on your Facebook wall or notes section. Alternately, Hubpages does have a Share feature that makes it easy to share your articles on your Facebook account however it is still a manual process. Many blogging platforms also have easy to add Facebook share features.
Adding an RSS feed to your Facebook Page

As a Hubber, I found that I wanted to share my hubs with my friends on Facebook. But how to do it easily? Im a very busy person and did not want the tedious task of remembering to post a separate link to each HUB I write. Well, I searched high and low through the forums and help text on Facebook and HubPages. Two hours later and I found one tiny little link someone had posted in a forum that answered all my questions.

If you would like each HUB you write to automatically appear with a short description and link on your Wall in Facebook, click on "My Profile" at the top of HubPages. Under your photo you will see a little orange button that says "Subscribe to RSS Feed." Right click on it and select "Copy Shortcut" from the menu. Then go to:

http://www.facebook.com/editnotes.php

Place your cursor in the block on that Facebook page. Hold the Ctrl button and press the letter "V". This will paste the shortcut you just copied into the block. Click import.

Thats it, your done. Now every time your create and publish a new HUB, your Facebook Wall will automatically be updated.

By the way, this process will work with your blog too. Just copy the URL of your blog feed instead of the URL for your HubPages feeds and insert it on the Facebook page above.

The only drawback is that Facebook will only allow you to import one feed, so if you write a blog and on HubPages, you will need to choose.

Finally, this is not permanent. If at some point in the future you no longer want to import that RSS feed to Facebook, go to your Notes page in Facebook. Toward the right you will see a box titled "Notes Settings". Click "Edit Import Settings" On the next page, you will see a button that says "Stop Importing". Click it and Facebook will stop importing that RSS feed. You can then leave it empty or insert a new feed to import.
Subdomain Migration and your Facebook Feed

August 2011, Hubpages and decided to move all hubs to a user based subdomain. If you currently have your RSS Feed imported by Facebook you should do your migration manually rather than waiting for the automated migration planned by Hubpages. If you take no action, when your subdomain is migrated Facebook will re-import your entire feed. This import will flood your Facebook wall with a separate post for each Hub you have. In addition, it will duplicate posts on your Notes page with links to the old and new URLS.

At minimum, I recommend you manually transfer your Hubs to the subdomain late at night. This will have your posts flood Facebook overnight and hopefully make a minimal impact on your wall and the news feeds of your friends. After the migration, you should probably consider cleaning up your notes page and removing the links to old URLS.

For a more involved solution, you can remove your RSS feed from Facebook by clicking on the link above. Then transfer your to your subdomain in Hubpages. Then come back here and re-add your feed to Facebook. I think this will avoid Facebook from re-importing the entire feed. It should just pick up the feed from that point forward. (If anyone tries this, please comment below with your results.) This solution will leave your old notes with links to the old URLS. Since all URLS will be automatically redirected, this is ok.

How to choose the best for your home theater system

Watching movies is a neat escape from the stressful lifestyle we live in. Watching movies in a wide screen and surround sound take you far away and into the movie scene you are watching. You watch it as if you were there in the movie scene. Of late, we can only experience this escape in a cinema. However, modern technology may be able to provide this same sight and sound experience right in your own living room. We will discuss the basic components of a home theater system in this article. Read on to understand how these basic components can deliver the best cinematic experience to a home theater system.


Home theater experts state that the most important consideration in setting up a home theater system is the size of the room where you will set up the home theater system. The most important component of the home theater system, which is the television, is dependent on the size of the room. Although, the recommendation is 27 inches television set at a minimum is necessary for your home theater set up. It is also a recommendation that a flat television is good for a home theater system because it exhibits fewer glares and produces a crisper image. 

Another major component of a home theater system that depends on the size of the room is the speaker. The number of speakers for your home theater system is dependent on the size of the room. You may add up to six speakers from the basic three speakers if you want a more lifelike sound. Adding a subwoofer may also be good to achieve a complete surround sound like in the movie theaters. Three speakers should be the minimum; you may go up to six if the room is big. 

Another major for your home theater system is the DVD player. It is a recommendation that DVD players with progressive scan will be the best choice. This is because progressive scan produces sharp and flicker-free pictures. This however points back to the choice of television unit; you may need to check if the flat television set supports progressive scan signals. You may also acquire a five-disk carrousel DVD player. This will avoid having to stand up from your seat to change discs every so often. A minor consideration is the power rating that will determine how loud your speaker can be. Of course, almost all these depend on the size of the room to where the home theater system is going to be set up. Small room requires from few types of equipment, bigger rooms may require more and adding home theater furniture to your home theater system may be best. A bigger room thus requires more investments. A smaller room might require fewer but of good quality equipments to avoid the too basic feel of the home theater system.

Finally, you may acquire a beautifully designed home theater system if you consider hiring a home theater expert. If you can afford this, it will be best for you because the home theater expert will be able to effectively design and set up your home theater system. Your home theater designer may also add some features like home theater seating and other home theater furniture to be able to give the complete home theater package that closely resembles a real movie theater. Having the finest and high-quality home theater system will give you the most sought after set up that you could flaunt and enjoy to the max.
