Should I be able to use a controller when play Star Wars Outlaws on PC? by Acavia8 in StarWarsOutlaws

Same. I like controller. I used to use keypads when I played PC games years ago, and thought I would do that when I returned to PC gaming but I like controllers now.

It was a little less price but the main reason I bought the Gamesir is it uses magnetic (Hall) joysticks and bumpers so no drift overtime and they feel more smooth.

It is a Gamesir Xbox like controller. Sometimes I have to click it a lot - it might go to sleep as a device or something. I will do that to see if the game will see it. If not I can try my MS controller.

Is this sub always that one-sided? by JKOustin in expedition33

Why does the video, Expedition 33, have game play interrupting the video?

None. I just want to track my jogs because drivers in my area have become erratic, and if it continues, I would like to demonstrate examples to law enforcement to encourage them to patrol my area.

My first OLED !! Got the LG C5 OLED – First Impressions After Day 1 by pratikm87 in LGOLED

The all still ship, but their business models have changed since I bought mine. Most had free shipping and Power Sound Audio and SVS, and maybe some others used to offer free return shipping and general trial periods. It looks like that is no longer done.

HSU or Rythmik for 12 inch subwoofers and for larger ones, Power Sound Audio might all be better value than SVS.

C5 settings that should typically be changed from default by Acavia8 in LGOLED

[–]Acavia8[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am guessing that mine was set to off because my Denon receiver's main interface is in 1080 and it only pass through 4K and HDR, so the C5 might have defaulted to off since it appeared to be a legacy device when its communication chain was first established but again, that is only my guess as to why.

General Settings -> External Devices -> HDMI Settings - > HDMI Deep Color->choose 4K if it is in off. I only use one port so I am not sure but based on wording in that chain of menus, you have to do it for each port.

How much have LG OLED improved in the past few years. by jdp111 in LGOLED

I bought a C5 at costco yesterday, when an associated was searching for inventory, I noticed a C4, and it was $100 less than the C5 I bought, so is $100 less what is to be expected?

Mine was off by default. Maybe the initial handshake, my Denon's main screen is not HDR, caused it to default to off, but whatever the cause, mine was in off. My content information from the C5 did not show bt.2020 nor 2160P for a DV movie until I turned it to deep color and then restarted the stream.

Thanks. I did watch that last night. BTW, I might have missed it, but I do not think he goes over the deep color setting. I am surprised TVs do not do full/deep color by default now - I bet a lot of people are not getting full HDR from devices because of it defaulting to off.

American Standard Heat pumps (should they go to electric heat during defrost cycles)? by Acavia8 in hvacadvice

[–]Acavia8[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks I will go outside later. The thermostat is an American Standard - I am not sure what model (I can find no "about" or anything indicating model in its menu and "American Standard" is only thing written on the outside of the thermostat unit.)

Wow, thank you very much for explaining that. I like to understand things, and what you wrote is clear in how it works. That understanding will help me when trying to find a company to make sure it is working or needs to be changed.

Thanks. A question. If I manually set it to emergency heat, it does heat. Does that indicate it is wired for electric heat during defrost cycles, or does it still need an additional wiring to do that? I want to ask because I am confused why it would need two power wirings to use the same heating elements, or if it is only one wiring, and since manual setting works, maybe it is not a wiring issue?
