I watch Apocalypse Now Redux the other night. It has scenes that are not in the theater version (which is also included in this set). And this set also have "Hearts of Darkness" which I haven't watched yet but what a great deal! I love this movie and it's in Blueray so the cinematography is stunning!

I bought one 16 months ago. Around 4 months ago (right after the warranty ran out) it started cutting off and on. Now it does that all the time. Lots of my videos are corrupted. I will not buy this brand again.

I have ear buds and an external (dual) speaker for my laptop. I use my laptop as a desktop at home and I don't like connecting and disconnecting my ear buds or speakers so I keep both hooked up at all times and just turn off the speakers when I use my earbuds.

First of all, this is a universal adapter. It says "For Mac" on the box but it works on PCs. I have two older monitors that both use VGA connectors but my new laptop only has (2) "Mini Display Ports" (and 1 HDMI). I have two of these adapters and use both of my VGA monitors and they work perfectly. A little expensive but cheaper than buying new monitors.

I've had these for two weeks and the right channel is already messed up. Left is full volume. Right is very faint, almost completely dead.

Sirius's Questions
 
Logitech M310 Wireless Mouse is an easy-to-use, full-size mouse that feels just right. Feel comfortable for hours on end - in your right or left hand - thanks to its contoured, ambidextrous design with soft rubber side grips. M310 comes with a plug-and-forget nano USB receiver that is small enough to stay in your USB port so you won't lose it no matter where you take your laptop. Navigating on your PC or Macbook is simple, with smooth, responsive tracking and Logitech Advanced 2.4 GHz wireless connectivity. For hassle-free use and extreme reliability and durability, choose M310 wireless mouse.
 

I bought this in a package with the wireless keyboard. Both work on the same receiver dongle. Mouse is going bad. Can I buy (only) this mouse new and will it still work with only the one dongle for both the keyboard and the mouse?

Does this have to be attached to your phone or is it just a proximity device? Also, not real familiar with 4G but does this work with all cell phone carrier plans? If not, which ones?

I see from people's questions that this TV is not Blue Tooth enabled. Is there a jack for headphones? My sister is hard of hearing and needs headphones to watch TV. If you can use headphones, which headphones are compatible? Can you recommend a pair?

On the back of this TV are (RCA type) stereo audio output connections (red and white). You can use an adapter that is "RCA out" to "3.5mm in" so you can hook up standard earbuds. I prefer to do my purchases at Best Buy but when they don't have something, I go to Amazon. Best Buy does not have this adapter so here is a link to Amazon for the adapter.

https://www.amazon.com/3-5mm-Stereo-Audio-Cable-Adapter/dp/B01JEBLEIC/ref=pd_ybh_a_1?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=9M98RET5WTT9TX1FB8TB

Sony also makes a nice pair of earbuds that are cheap. The link to Best Buy for them is below. But you'll probably have to buy an extension cable. None of the stuff I listed is expensive.

Earbuds:
https://www.bestbuy.com/site/sony-ex14ap-wired-earbud-headphones-black/5739305.p?skuId=5739305

3.5mm extension cable:
https://www.bestbuy.com/site/insignia-6-3-5mm-male-female-audio-extension-cable-black/6348657.p?skuId=6348657

For me, I decided to buy a Sony portable speaker that I can attach to the TV via the RCA connections (which means I am buying the adapter I mentioned above), and the Sony speaker is also bluetooth so I can send my music to the speaker via bluetooth from my laptop.

Can I connect this adapter to the VGA port on my computer and then a mini display port on my monitor? I realize this is the reverse of what this adapter is advertising but I wonder if it will work. Tyy

Most likely not. The VGA connector is a "female" style and the one on your computer will most likely be a "female" style. They will not connect. Find another adapter that is more for the intended purpose.
