Re: Using Roku or Chromecast
OK, back with an update...sort of. :-) I've successfully used PlayLater to record some programing on my laptop to take on the road. The mp4 files all look good although I did have some failures that required me two or three tries before I got them downloaded. That was probably related to bandwidth being used by other devices in my HOME (I capitalized that for the person who thought I was hogging campsite resources)at the same time I was downloading them. At any rate, they look good but I've been so busy getting ready for the road that I've not actually viewed any. If I don't post any more to this thread, please assume that PlayLater worked as advertized. If there are issues, I'll come back and "whinge" about them. Happy travels everyone and thanks for all of your responses. ;-) PS Mr Wiz...it streams them in real time and records as it streams. At least I'm pretty sure that's what it is doing...it takes 30 min. to record a 30 min. program and as I mentioned, I had a few failures when I was recording during times of high usage in my house. ;-)694Views0likes0CommentsFlorida Gulf Coast Spots
Hi all: We will be leaving Key West in mid-January heading slowly back north. We will spend a week at Flamingo campground in the Everglades but have not planned past that point. We have never been up the Gulf side of Florida and so I'm wondering if you all would recommend good places to stay. We are military, Good Sam and (soon-to-be) Escapee members but we'd really like to stay at State or National parks or BLM campgrounds. Thanks in advance for any suggestions! ;-)2.7KViews0likes9CommentsRe: Using Roku or Chromecast
I guess I should have made it clear...I don't use either Roku or Chromecast while traveling. PlayLater is software that is intended to let you download content while you are at home...save it on your H/D for viewing "offline". I don't use free wi-fi anywhere at any rate. My phone will tether to my 'puters and tablet and so I only use the bandwidth that I have paid Verizon for. ;-D I'd still like to hear from anyone that has used this software. ;-)694Views0likes0CommentsRe: Litter Box Ideas
I didn't like the little b/r sink our rig came with anyway so we removed it, got a new piece of counter, and a new vessel sink. This raised the plumbing up enough to accommodate our Jazzy. I took the cabinet and b/r doors off and stored them. Replaced the b/r door with a tension rod use a curtain for human privacy. :) If your kitty is that stinky you might consider trying a new food. Our Gatsby (17 pounder) was a stinky kitty when he first came from the pound. Now, after a few months of Blue Buffalo Indoor formula he has a smell but it won't run you out of the rig. ;-D626Views0likes0Comments
