    Finally somebody who can give an explanation without making me get a headache
  • If you were a doctor you would be my doctor, too! Only smart people know how to simplify the complicated. We need more teachers like you. So happy I found you. Thank you.
  • Man, very organized and clear presentation . Best I’ve seen!!
  • @anynameyouwant
    I wish you'd been around, back in the day, to explain things in your straight forward manner when I was a pup trying to understand all that school stuff. Thanks for keeping it on the level and not bamboozling folks with too much tech-speak-jargon. Keep up the good work.
  • That is the best and most straightforward explanation I have heard. Certainly made a decision, actually a few decisions, a hell of a lot easier. Thank you, you rock.👍

    Great follow-up video, Mr. Chard. I am configuring a TiVo/computer network with my new LG C8 OLED TV and LG SK9Y soundbar. It's taken me weeks of research to see that you and Chris Majestic are the best on YouTube. I learned that the HDMI path to soundbar and TV is best (as you have so politely explained). I also learned that I have to configure that path to avoid obstacles in HDCP and HDR and ATMOS performance. This old geezer loves your presentation.
