Well the first time the firmware update on the new receiver flaked out. Not his fault so I ate that. Now having all these hdmis issues so I'm on the loosing end of that.
No, no, no. Firmware flaking out and HDMI issues are NOT your fault. It is his equipment, he owns the equipment, therefore he owns the invoice. Bill him.
[edit]: just remembered the Pioneer firmware flak out was a brand new device you were selling. Ouch on that one. But the Samsuck is sure not your problem.
Read what I mentioned before about things I make a mistake on.
If I forget some things and have to make another trip out, that's on my dime. But once I arrive back on site and troubleshooting again, the meter is running again on his invoice. That's why I try to keep any test equipment/gear on my truck for what I know I'll be running into (when possible).
Example: When working with any video system, I make sure I have my DMM. An assortment of HDMI cables (including long ones that might need to reach across the floor in the room for testing). HDMI splitter. HDMI switcher. Ethereal's HDM-GA1. My old Sencore HDMI signal generator. That 22" 1080p LG TV. Extra HDBaseT extender. Some other Ethereal do-hickys I can't remember the models on. And Bayer Aspirin - in case of headache or heart attack dealing with the crap.
[many other things to help depending on situation]: Deoxit spray, HDMI couplers, bunch of network related stuff for HDBaseT issues (cat5/6 ends, etc...).
Thinking about buying a Roku Ultra, just to have on the truck. Nice 4K test box :)
