    List of HDTV's with on/off event timers

    Hello,
    I have an elderly 93 year old mom with dementia,she's using an older 46 inch Hitachi projection style TV which is probably going to quit.I have to set it to turn on and off 3 times a day on at 9am off at 11am then on again at 5pm and off at 10pm I have it set to turn on at 2am and off at 2;05am in case she accidentaly turns it on then leaves and goes to bed,(this is a fail safe so the thing doesn't run all night)I have been having a heck of a time on google to do searches on TV's with on/off timers/scheduling timers/event timers etc with no luck.Does anyone here on the forum know of a list of TV's available in the 46-50 inch size that have at least one programable on off cycle?(3 would be nice)since spectrum required cable boxes as of Nov 2018 we cannot program the event timer for a video input other than a channel number so I cannot even set the event timer to come on component input #one.Tuners are useless now and she's been asking for TCM thats turner classic movies.I've rigged a couple of rokus to modulators rigged to channel 3 and 4 but the picture quality is fair at best.Most TV's have a sleep timer that will not do.Some samsungs have the abilty for one on/off but no listing on the models and best buy no help.It also needs a calander to set it weekly or daily Mon-Sunday etc.Does anyone here have any ideas?
    Thanks.

    Panasonic plasmas usually have a mode you can set so it turns off after 3 hours unless you press the "ok" button when a message pops up for 3 minutes, to prevent burn-in...

      WD Sentinel DS5100 (NAS) boot issues
      by DeanWy
      Hi all,

      I have a Western Digital Sentinel DS5100 NAS system which has stopped working. It has dual BIOS. I bought the system second hand with an already broken primary BIOS (it rebooted multiple times until second BIOS was used).

      It worked until recently. The system was idle in Windows Server 2012 and a BSOD occurred, I think it was 'critical process died'. Thereafter it didn't boot, it just sat there with no video output and fan speed at 100% (there's a proprietary Windows driver by WD which controls the fan, outside of that it always runs at 100%).

      There...

      Samsung UN65JU67ODFXZA Version TD01 Schematic and Parts List
      by Mark D
      The TV is a Samsung UN65JU67ODFXZA Version TD01. I replaced the power source board and the TV is now working, but I decided to try and troubleshoot the old board to fix at the component level. Trying to get a schematic and a parts list has proven to be an issue. Trying on my own, I can't tell you how many times my Norton security has flagged sites as "malicious". I ordered a service manual from ServiceManuals.net, paid $16.99 and got 66 pages of everything BUT schematics and component parts list! Can anyone steer me in the right direction? Some of the surface mounted component parts...

      List of compatible laptop motherboards
      by Deby

      This is a list of compatible laptop motherboard information that I have been collecting for some time.
      And it's still ongoing.
      Every time I come across information that a board is compatible with another, I write it down.
      Anyone who wants to, can continue to expand the list.
      Packed in the rar, is an excel table that has additional information.
