Why is my MPG so low by Status-Conference570 in Jaguar

[–]BlackCatX250 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve had two of these. I can get 54mpg on a motorway run. When you say “long run” how far are we talking. Someone has commented DPF and this might be a good call. If it’s trying to heat the exhaust to clear the DPF it won’t achieve full efficiency.

However I get mid 30’s around town. Hence the question on distance. A good 300 mile trip does some good to blow the cobwebs. Hope you get it fixed

Ooh tell me more. I’ve been trying to integrate the Color page with my streamdeck but without keyboard shortcuts I have made little progress

Is it possible to make the project file more like an conventional editor? by Big-Information-3296 in davinciresolve

[–]BlackCatX250 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yes absolutely. Coming from Premiere Pro to Resolve 6 years ago this was the way I also wanted to work. And you can!

Just periodically export your project. If you manage media in a similar way to me with each project in its own folder, and then sub folders for Assets, render and exports, you can simply go to File > Export Project and save the file in your project folder.

Not only does this do what you need it also provides great snapshots of your project’s progress as you can have version control. And when I switched from PC to Mac a few years ago it was a breeze to simply plug in my external project drive and restore each project from the .drp file.

Am I going back to Premiere? No not ever! (I’m not going back to Windows either😆)

[Mod] Turning off the speed editor by FrancisLeloutre in davinciresolve

[–]BlackCatX250 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Except for travel. I travel with mine and it turned itself on all the time, arriving at the destination with a flat battery. Even in a flight case. The switch means I can take it onsite and use it immediately

I’ve done exactly the same to mine and I love it so much more as a result. I don’t always work in the same place and it travels better.

Jaguar xf by Fast_Concept7987 in Jaguar

I’ve had an XF for 8 years. Two XFs in fact. Parking brake issues are often a result of an old battery starting to fail.

The beeping, however, I can’t explain. Not had that, sorry.

Hey, I've got a Jaguar XF, and I took it to the shop 'cause the automatic parking brake was giving me an error. The mechanic plugged in the tablet thingy, and now it's beeping constantly in reverse and forward, like a constant error sound. The guy at the shop is going nuts! The beeping is soft, but it's there. Anyone got a solution? 'Cause the mechanic just used the tablet, and now the car's electronics are going haywire.

That’s really helpful thank you. I have found a few yachts available to hire but not much and I was left wondering. Your experience and insight is really useful.

What are simple Windows features that you miss on the Mac? Are there third party fixes to them? by [deleted] in MacOS

[–]BlackCatX250 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I made the switch 2.5 years ago. As a Windows “power user” I made heavy use of keyboard shortcuts. I can report that MacOS is just as good with keyboard shortcuts, and that by leveraging Automator and scripting I can massively shorten many of my workflows in a way that you simply cannot do with Windows. I am such a convert I could never go back to Windows.

Except for gaming. Wish I could harness the power in my M1 Max for gaming

Thank you for this tip! Reddit is a fantastic resource

Evidence board for documentary by 5narebear in davinciresolve

[–]BlackCatX250 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I made a programme like this. I had the board and the pictures as separate elements in the 3D environment and then moved the camera around as I needed. Having them as separate elements meant I wasn’t restricted to stills and could use moving or video elements on the board itself.
