    52: Thanksgiving Special: AV Side Dishes

    AV Superfriends: On Topic Thanksgiving Special - AV Side Dishes Recorded October 30, 2024 (I’m still letting AI write this, but I have to edit it more and more recently - cjd) It's time for a Thanksgiving special with the AV SuperFriends! We’re discussing our favorite AV "side dishes"—those unsung heroes in AV systems that make everything work smoothly. As they gather for a virtual Thanksgiving dinner, the AV SuperFriends explore the role of HDMI extenders, button panels with built-in processors, and ever-useful IP-controlled power distribution. They also dive into the intricacies of network video decoders and the importance of networking with other institutions to share knowledge and ideas. Plus, they tackle the age-old debate of stuffing versus dressing and the best way to enjoy a Frosty with fries. But it wouldn't be an AV SuperFriends episode without a bit of mayhem. With overproof rum, cigars, and a homemade crème brûlée flambe on the menu, things get a little heated—literally. Will Lisle's kitchen survive the festivities? Tune in to find out!

    AVSuperFriends On Topic Episode 49: Unique Boutique Recorded (and streamed live) on July 26, 2024 No topic provided again this month, so we decided to look at the numbers for display technologies.  Where does it make sense to consider LCDs vs. projectors vs. LEDs?  Chris even built a spreadsheet of rough numbers because he’s a nerd that way.  Are LEDs becoming cheap enough to replace projectors?  Is anyone building LCD videowalls these days?  What are you installing on your campus?

    AV SuperFriends: On Topic Episode 48 Frozen Concentrated Orange Juice Recorded June 26, 2024 No topic was provided this month, so instead we’re going to make this our summer Fourth of July special.   So, get out your flags, wake up the kids for the renewal of their annual loyalty oath, fire up the grills, smoker, or barbecue, light off the sparklers and firecrackers, and let’s celebrate America by blowing up a small part of it.   We’ve each collected our favorite AV products, solutions, services, or approaches that we’d like to blow up.  Larry doesn’t like formal instructor stations in conference rooms, Marc hates giant card frames, Chris despises giant amplifiers powering only a few loudspeakers, Justin is not a fan of professional PTZ cameras with only USB output, and Jamie detests displays with onboard operating systems. Happy Fourth of July everyone!
