United Airlines Satisfaction Survey

So, I just got a survey from United about the flight I recently had:

On the next field I just stated the truth of my flight:

"One flight attendant move me from the back of the plane to the middle, because I was seated beside a woman with one baby on his arms and other small child with a car seat. He moved me so we both had a better flying experience (that was good).

After moving me, other flight attendant came to me and asked my why I was seated on Economy Plus, while I was from Economy, I told her that other flight attendant moved me here, but she insisted that it was not possible and said something like "Nobody on this plane will ever moved you here, since this seats are more expensive that the one you paid for" so I must be lying.

So I tell her to ask the other fly attendant and stop bothering me. After validating that, the fly attendant told me that it was no problem and stopped bothering me for the rest of the fly.  [sarcasm] I want to thank that fly attendant for the embarrassment that provided me with the rest of the passengers.[/sarcasm] All the people near me on the cabin was looking at me like "this bastard paid Economy and is trying to "cut-in" to Economy Plus".

Regards"


(Corrected some misspellings from the original submitted version) 

After that, United´s surveys does something "Bold": 

 Sure, I want to recognize the flight attendant that didn't believe on my word. 
What??? Employee ID ????
I'm sure if I complete the "Physical Description" of the flight attendant I will get sue on the US.

Physical Description: The one that acted like a bitch !!!

USB TV Box 5.0 - TV Tuner Software

I just found this software while searching for some driver for an USB Video In device. It worked on Windows 10 x64.

USB TV BOX 5.0






We don't know the author of this software for sure. It will even shows up, I will ask him to turn it open source :)

There is a decent setting configuration when you can set the source of the video input and the standard that it uses. 

Also very interesting button for recording, change video input source, etc.

Tested Hardware

Cheap from China: EasyCAP Video input device - USBTV007 EasyCAP

I replaced the old EasyCAP device with one that I thought it was the same, but the hardware ID is different. According to what I read there are four different EasyCAP device that looks the same.

So, don't be fool by these pictures:


Hardware ID

The first thing to do it "check the Hardware ID", be sure which device it is because there are four devices that looks the same.

Win Hardware USB ID: USB\VID_1B71&PID_3002
HardwareID:  1B71:3002

Check it on Windows on the "Device Manager", on the name of the device click "Properties":

Windows 10 x64 202H (2021-05-27 Update)

On this Windows 10 update it seems to became a new problem. The drivers are not installed by default by Windows. 
 
Windows recognize it as "usbtv007" no drivers are found on the Microsoft Windows Update site.
 
This driver worked for me:

Windows 10 x64

Working: On Windows 10 x64 this device gets recognized as "USB TV Tuner" without any special driver, it just get the one from "Windows update".


 I used to have some problems

Software Tested:

  • Nero Video on Windows 10 x64

  • USB TV BOX 5.0 on Windows 10 x64


USB TV Box is include here: ZEB-UP2012.zip  (Alternative Link on the Wayback machine)
