Sony EVS-1000E calendar failure in 2006
Just for your information, the Sony EVS1000E,
which is a UK model Hi8 edit deck circa 1992, does not accept dates into 2006. The remote commander rolls around to 1990. Attempting to use a remote commander from a later EVS9000E machine to set the date does not work. A quick rummage on the Internet produced this excellent web page: http://www.hermetic.ch/cal_sw/idcal/idcal.htm which allows you to select another year which matches any given year should a video recorder clock refuse to accept the present year. For 2006 I used 1995, and for 2007 I will use 1990 etc., though in years 2008 and 2012 it will be stuffed. I was pleased to note that the EVS9000E does not suffer this problem, it must be somewhat newer (the calendar has no obvious limit though it must wrap around at some point way off in the future). All the best, Colin www.video99.co.uk (video to DVD transfers) |

Why care if the date is wrong? You're the only one that is going to know. another thing? are you going to be watching some porn because no woman would ever want to talk to somebody like you? |
