Tips for malfunctioning IFE (777-200)
Was recently on 2192, LAX-MIA, overnight, seated in Biz/F. There were some IFE troubles (throughout the acft, I think), and, as a result, I couldn't get my IFE screen to turn off.
Ended up covering it with a spare pillowcase so the bright "Welcome" scroll (which couldn't be changed) wasn't glaring at me all night. No other IFE functions responded, either to touch, or through controller. Flight crew tried restarting twice.
Any tips in those cases? The pillow case worked well enough, but maybe some super-secret-button-combo to just power the whole thing down?
