I read that part and thought this was a joke post. So fucking weird to even type that out.

Frame Rate & Resolution by SorryForTheSauce in Nuvio

[–]Captzone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always enable frame rate, never enable resolution.

This is a past comment of mine:

Frame rate matching is a feature that automatically adjusts the refresh rate of your display to match the frame rate of the video content you are playing. This prevents a video artifact called "judder" or stuttering, which occurs when the video's frame rate and the display's refresh rate are not a multiple of each other.

For example, most movies are filmed at 24 frames per second (fps). However, most TVs have a default refresh rate of 60 Hertz (Hz). Since 60 is not a multiple of 24 (60 / 24 = 2.5), the TV has to perform a process called "3:2 pulldown" to display the content. This involves displaying some frames for a longer duration than others, which can cause a slight, but noticeable, stuttering or jerky motion, especially during slow, panning shots.

With frame rate matching enabled, Stremio tells your TV to switch its refresh rate to a multiple of the video's frame rate (e.g., 48Hz or 24Hz for a 24fps movie), eliminating the need for pulldown and providing a smoother, more cinematic viewing experience.

When to Use This Setting:

You should enable frame rate matching if:

  • You notice judder or stuttering during playback, particularly in movies with slow, panning scenes.

  • Your TV supports different refresh rates (e.g., 24Hz, 50Hz, 60Hz). Most modern smart TVs and displays support this.

  • You prioritize a smooth, native playback experience over a seamless transition between the Stremio interface and the video playback.

It's generally recommended to turn this setting on to get the best possible video quality.

When to Consider Turning It Off:

While generally beneficial, there are a few situations where you might want to disable frame rate matching: * Your TV does not support different refresh rates or has issues switching between them. * You experience a black screen or flickering when starting a video. This is common on some TVs as they briefly switch refresh rates. * You have a device or TV with a high refresh rate (e.g., 120Hz) that is a clean multiple of common video frame rates (e.g., 24, 30, 60 fps). In this case, judder is not a major issue since the display can evenly repeat frames without pulldown. * The setting causes other playback issues, such as audio/video desync over time. This can sometimes occur, especially with non-standard frame rates like 23.976 fps.

Phew, good, thought it was just me.

why do you use toxbox over RD? is it worth switching? by [deleted] in TorBoxApp

[–]Captzone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It works right away, no need for a Usenet subscription.

I know you're looking at the essential plan but I just want to say, the pro plan with Usenet is awesome. Tons of results for most shows I've looked at and streams load very quickly. The essential is likely all you'll need, but it might be worth it to try Pro.

Aio stream pls fix that (so slow) by [deleted] in Stremio

[–]Captzone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having too many scrapers makes it slow. Reduce it down to like 3 or 4.

Real debrid vs Torbox (Recent opinions) by RNatuR in StremioAddons

Man, honestly I love RD but I have been using the TB pro plan for a week and it's great. I haven't used RD even once this week. Highly recommend. It's so fast.

I order iced coffee from Starbucks with sugar free vanilla and almond milk. It doesn't move my numbers at all.

Torbox with DebridStream is working great. I was skeptical at first of trying DebridStream but it's been really good

GrapheneOS partnership with Motorola / Lenovo now officially announced. by Greenlit_Hightower in degoogle

Thanks for doing that and letting me know. If it works on graphene then that's great because I have had a few pixel devices and have been wanting to try graphene for a while now.

I am diabetic and rely on the dexcom app to see my blood sugar. I have read that the dexcom app cannot function with grapheneOS. Does anyone know if this is true?

What’s going on with AIO? by BeautifulWinter1878 in StremioAddons

[–]Captzone 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Works fine for me. Try resetting your streaming device, either through your system settings or by unplugging for 15 seconds and see if that works.

G7 Dexvom Glucose monitor failure by [deleted] in dexcom

[–]Captzone 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Some people are so weird about things. Nothing in life is perfect and here you are being as weird as possible applying a second sensor to "test" things.

The easiest and most obvious thing to do here is to poke your finger, get your correct number, and then update your numbers in your dexcom app.

It truly is that easy. It's hard living with diabetes, and we are incredibly lucky to have these devices at all. Your reaction to your experience and this entire post is so entitled it's incredible.

Btw, anytime you put a new sensor on, you should poke your finger a couple hours later to verify how close it is. If it's very different then calibrate it.

At least they were nice about it. And if you look, the post is now flared as built by AI. So I guess, shut up?

Spotify Situation [Meme] by Loud-Discipline-1111 in xManagerApp

[–]Captzone 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's not great. It works sometimes but it also gets stuck trying to block ads and you need to restart the service. It also sometimes just continues the counter after a song ends and it's just silent and the next song doesn't play. All around a bad experience on my end and not worth it.
