Re: Audio jack to speaker with positive and negative ends

After soldering everything together, it works but is very quiet. Is there a way to boost the volume?

Re: Audio jack to speaker with positive and negative ends

yes you are right, you will get either the left or the right side on the single speaker. I read somewhere here on these forums about converting stereo to mono. I'll see if I can track it down and post back. Thanks! Edit: After cutting open the main wire, there seems to be a plastic wire with some w...

I've got some broke earbuds laying around and a speaker. Could I connect the speaker to the audiojack of the earbuds by soldering them and then use the speaker? http://i.imgur.com/j8YWDPs.jpg http://i.imgur.com/kYtd8OO.jpg http://i.imgur.com/fDo4wxU.jpg (Positive and negative end are marked on the s...

Re: LIRC suddenly not working anymore

Still no answer, but I think there's something wrong with my sensor. In mode2, it is now only outputting spaces which shouldn't be the case, should it? The irrecord command still tells the signals are too long. A different remote doesn't help.

There are quite a few different standards. Have a look at http://www.vecoven.com/elec/ir/ir.html You'll need to be able to time pulses down to about 50 microseconds.
