[Videoconferencing] ISAC2 (222) repairs, Auditorium problems

[Andrew Daviel]

The good, the bad, and the ugly ..

ISAC2 Video Room (222):

- The VGA converter (which allowed a laptop output to be displayed as 
NTSC video) has been removed. No-one ever used it to my knowledge, and 
the connections were getting kicked to death under the table.

- The laptop audio cable (allows laptop sound to play through the room 
speakers) was damaged. It is now repaired.

- The Shure microphone (table mic for EVO) was not working. It should be 
now. It probably stopped working when I disconnected the muting controls 
(an unused feature that left the sound system glitched after every power 
outage). The light is still off, though.

- some wires under the table have been tidied up


Auditorium:

The sound system was making an odd "bip, bip" noise today. Power-cycling 
the echo canceller failed to fix this so I turned off the amplifier.
Right now, there is no audio for conferencing or playing DVDs in the 
auditorium.
