I'm glad you got it working! I may have made a mistake when rewriting the part of the code that first writes to the `nowplaying.txt` file, though I can't be sure without seeing what you were seeing. It might be nice if you don't need to do the writing to the same file twice, but I'm also a firm...

Apologies! It's entirely possible I've made some glaring mistakes here that are getting in the way. I wrote the entire thing up in the comment box on the site here sans testing, so it's entirely possible if not incredibly likely there's all kinds of things wrong here. 😅 I suspect this might be...

My pleasure! There's probably fancier ways you could communicate with your streaming server and render it all live and whatnot, but I'd honestly say it's not worth the hassle, unless the coding experience is what you're after. jQuery is an older choice, and modern JavaScript kind of made it...

Awesome, I'm glad it's working for you! Very possible, yes! If I understand your idea right, you'd want to (optionally?) display a drop-down box if there are more than one stream available, and then use the selection in this dropdown box to render out the "now playing" UI, right? I'm not sure...

Small caveat up front that I'm on my phone and may make a typo. Technically it might be cleaner to check if `source` is an array and then pull from its first entry if it is, but it might just be enough to add a bit of OR logic and call it a day? Something along the lines of; document.title =...

Thank you kindly for your reply! That is exactly the area where I focused too, yes. The rest of the board actually looks fine (especially after a clean), but around C419 and R534 and R525 it was quite bad looking. I don't have a better photo of this at the moment, but this is what it looked like...

Hi everyone! I hope you're all having a great MARCHintosh so far! I've been working on repairing a Macintosh LC with accompanying monitor that I purchased here in Korea not too long ago that was sold as "for junk" and in non-working state. Both visually looked very clean and not all that...

Is this with an original Apple CD-ROM drive, or a third party replacement by any chance? I might be way off the mark here, but this sounds very similar to how things work when using external third party drives that require a patched extension to work, so I thought I'd mention it just in case.

Fantastic, well done! It's so nice to see one more Mac saved :). Also feeling quite the envy here from the other side of the world. Here I am thinking if I can really justify spending $170 shipping for a $110 Mac LC. Yes, very envious indeed 😅. Thank you for sharing your story!

Out of curiosity as a fellow CC fan quite curious about your LCD replacement project; would a 1024x768 panel like the Eyoyo one @JDW has mentioned in some of his videos perhaps be a viable, pixel perfect option?

If you are using an adapter to connect your SSD, it might also be worth trying to see if using a different adapter or SSD makes a difference. If you have no other adapters and a working IDE HDD, it might be worth switching to that just to see if it makes any difference. Slightly unrelated, but...

Follow-up; It was indeed an oopsie in the description, the part being sold is a 1N5344B / 5W diode. Luke has updated the product description already, with the wiki update being imminent too I believe. Thanks again for catching this! It could have been rather confusing for potential buyers...

Great catch, and done! I will follow-up here when I hear back from Luke from Console5 on this.

Slightly belated response from me on this, apologies. I had heard back from Luke from Console5 but didn't get around to wading through my inbox until today. Luke from Console5 shared this with me: The product listing and Wiki page have also been updated to include the relevant information...

Yes, that indeed was my intended meaning, quite good to have that be made extra clear, thank you!

Same here, I'm glad it measured correctly. I've reached out to Luke to ask about this (and to ask if he's able to put detailed specs in his product listing as-well as update the Console5 wiki), I'll follow up with any updates I might get pertaining this! Indeed I did yes. I understand that...

Apologies for the belated response. I was able to measure the resistance of the resistor yesterday, and can happily report that it does measure correctly at ~100Ω. I was working on the analog board of my CC I too was scratching my head, as as I couldn't make sense of its value based on its color...

This might be a good place to mention that Luke from Console5 has graciously answered my request of turning your list of diodes/resistors into a ready to buy kit. His kits have been a life saver for folk like me who don't really have easy access to Mouser or the like. Here's the link, in case it...

Wow, what a journey!

Interesting. The "MacBatt" CR2032 solution I'm using seems to be lasting much longer than that. Since my CC has been a work-in-progress due to one particular issue it's been having that I've not yet been able to solve, but for the ~1.5 years I've had it so far and with it off most of the time...
