Good idea, though some sites might mangle it with autocorrect and spell checkers as default, especially at the beginning of a sentence.

I suspect we may see quite a few "eev blob" refrences then?  >:D

Looks great to me.  KISS.
IMHO, going to high frame rates on the regular programs is a complete waste of your time, YouTube's disk space, and the Internet bandwidth to view them at our end.  Not to mention that there are still probably many of your viewers who don't have the luxury of 10s of MB of internet speed to view such content.

I somehow manage to watch the 720p 50FPS with a 2meg bit bandwidth, almost in real time streaming.

I only see options for the resolution, not the framerate, but I've noticed that lately I have to switch to 720 instead of 1080 to get the audio and video in sync. It looks just as good as 720 anyway.

I get the audio our of sync thing too, didn't know about trying 720p and the cause being local.
I thought Dave was having some issues with new cams and res!

I initially though about all uppercase. But this looks better.

eevBLAB

EEV#blab
EEVblog
EEV-Blab
EEVblog
eev#BLAB


I vote for eevBLAB it does highlight the blab part which makes sense.

I really want to see the new product of yours. When will you release a video on it approximately?

About the name, the current one is Ok. The first name that came to my mind is: Lab time rant. xD well, it is a lab time rant after all.

good luck all!

Not so. In Flash on Firefox you will get the 50/60fps without any warning. Although on Windows at least, it will just drop frames instead of actually managing it.

I use Flash on Firefox on Windows, but I set " I have a slow connection. Never play higher-quality video " in my youtube options, so it plays the low quality videos by default.

well, I kinda expect that it has a "u" in it's name. It will make some kind of a signature for Dave, more like Apple with "i", iPad, iPhone... etc. xD

I thought he was referring to the Keysight box I got delivered?
In any case I have the
uWatch
uCalc
uCurrent
uRuler
uSupply
and a couple of other uWhatsis under development. So yeah, kinda a theme...

Dave has been clearing the decks of some neglected things. The BTTF clock repair, the Transistor tester teardown and the Digilent Analog Discovery review all been a long time on the back burner. Now the longest of all I'll bet it's the uSupply. I wouldn't be surprised to see a multimeter shootout soon too.

I'm hoping to get a EEVintern to help out finishing off the long neglected uSupply.
uRuler 2 is always but a few hours cut'n'paste whim away on Pozzible.
I was this close to reviewing a Brymen meter the other day, but did the Analog Discovery instead.

You should get a green hardhat, EEVintern on it and a blue stobe on top, just tell him/her health and safety requires it for insurance reasons. If the intern doesn't go for it you know they have the guts to speak up, if they do go for it they really got guts.

Actually the lab could use a funny hat, the tinfoil was awesome.

Yes, I like this theme.

Will you be selling uSupply when it is done like uCurrent?
