Shantz Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 Let's share what we tinkered with recently. Should be fun I'll start with my most recent one over this weekend: http://tech.shantanugoel.com/2013/07/14/samsung-tv-message-box-python.html (Reverse engineering Samsung's DLNA protocol extensions specific to displaying alerts on the idiot box natively.)

piper Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 I installed the Hyper212 EVO heatsink in my PC a couple of days ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

piper Posted July 14, 2013 Report Share Posted July 14, 2013 ^^ You did not tell me. How was it? Installation went well, my main concern (thermal paste application) wasn't much as I managed to apply the paste evenly onto the CPU. And then placed the heatsink and tightened the screws. And then remembered that I'd forgotten to take the plastic off the bottom of the heatsink. This culprit : Yes, I can read what it says. We are all human... Anyhow, removed the heatsink and retouched the thermal paste. Temperature readings Idle Stock HS : 45-50 212 EVO : 35-40 Load Stock HS : 65-70 212 EVO : 50-55 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool....how did you reverse engineer it? Is the code open sourced? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shantz Posted July 15, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Cool....how did you reverse engineer it? Is the code open sourced? Code is closed and no documentation. Good old upnp inspector and wireshark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good old upnp inspector and wireshark. wow, such dedication I try so many things, but I have this problem with losing focus/interest after some 10% into it .... have a bunch of diy/side projects lying in my pc.

avkash Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 Ok so it's still click click here as well. The only complex part was Unix user and group permission stuff. Rant taken back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALPHA17 Posted July 17, 2013 Report Share Posted July 17, 2013 Did you start from scratch, or turn a 2D image into a more lifelike '3D' one? This is from scratch if my knowledge has not become totally redundant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is from scratch if my knowledge has not become totally redundant. From scratch, but since its a gradient mesh painting, had to use a real reference for the shapes and colors. Took about 14 hours to get the colors right. Everything is made using the gradient mesh except the filament wires on the top, for those I used a normal 3 tone linear gradient as they are too small to be noticed unless you look carefully.
