switch

In electrical engineering, a switch is an electrical component that can break an electrical circuit, interrupting the current or diverting it from one conductor to another.
The mechanism of a switch may be operated directly by a human operator to control a circuit (for example, a light switch or a keyboard button), may be operated by a moving object such as a door-operated switch, or may be operated by some sensing element for pressure, temperature or flow. A relay is a switch that is operated by electricity. Switches are made to handle a wide range of voltages and currents; very large switches may be used to isolate high-voltage circuits in electrical substations.

    I have a fairly old Panasonic Viera tx-32lxd60 and whenever I switch on (either power on or from stand-by) I have no sound for 15 minutes; and depending on the source, no picture.

    X950H 75 and Nintendo Switch

    I have a 2016 Vizio P65-C1 and after reading about the Sony upscaler, bought a X950H to try out if the Nintendo Switch would look better. I believe the Switch upscales everything to a 1080p signal first and then outputs that. To be honest, I didn't see much of a difference between the X950H and...

    switch to toggle TV speakers and headphones

    Ok, I have a TV with a headphone jack, but it is in the back and rather hard to plug in and out. I have a fear of breaking the jack at some point. But I end up using the jack all the time so others don't hear the TV. Once you plug it in, it automatically disables the built-in TV speakers...
