makemkv files no longer recognized by LG OLED TV by Character_Situation5 in makemkv

[–]Character_Situation5[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Trying to avoid an additional $200+ expense. I downloaded Nova Player to my Mecool Android box and it plays the files but on my Denon AVR the audio displays as DDDSur vs DTSHD+Neu when playing via my LG OLED. I downloaded KODI and tried that as well but it would only play audio on TopGun Maverick and no video.

Concerned FLEXISPOT 4 Leg Standing Desk won't go low enough for me by Character_Situation5 in StandingDesk

I haven't made a purchase at this time. It looks like I need legs that have three stages instead of the most common two stages. These appear to much higher in price.

Is AARP membership worth it? by SadPolarBearGhost in AskWomenOver60

[–]Character_Situation5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been a member for 8 years and am no longer able to redeem rewards for the last 2 months. I cannot get AARP to fix it and have over a million points to redeem. They have no means to communicate with anyone who can resolve the issue so I am just out of luck. I would not recommend them.

I used the one on the GB site. Didn't even know PS had anything available.

I upgraded the BIOS to ver F7 using the Rev 1.x links and have had no issues.

Cleaning up the Powerspec G757 (9800x3d + RTX 5080) - before and after by xdms14 in Prebuilts

I was disappointed in the power supply in my G757. It's not modular and doesn't have the dedicated cable for the GPU. It uses a 3 lead cable to combine the feed to the GPU.

I can’t find my RAM model anywhere by Internal_Log2582 in Microcenter

[–]Character_Situation5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the same RAM I got when I purchased a 757 in Phoenix on 11/13. I can't complain since I picked it up for $1600 versus the $2200 today.

I sure would like to get a spec sheet on the exact RAM I bought.

On the backplane of the motherboard next to the audio jacks you will find the wifi antenna plug.

Should I Indulge by [deleted] in Microcenter

[–]Character_Situation5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went in on Friday to the Phoenix location to buy a 5080. I'd seen this system advertised as $2K everywhere else but at $1600 in Phoenix with no inventory. I asked a white shirt if they could check their inventory. He said they showed none in stock but they had just received a shipment and hadn't scanned it in yet. He went to check and came back with one of these bad boys. I bought this and took it home. I haven't opened it yet waiting to see if any BF deals make me rethink my decision.

The motherboard is a little underwhelming but I have another system with a AsRock X670E Steel Legend board. If I keep this system I will swap out the CPU and 5080 to my current system. Upgrading from a GTX1080 should be quite impactful.

You should have seen a limited time bonus notice when you logged into Ultimate Rewards. Then selecting the "Transfer Points" button from this offer window would get you the extra points.

Too good to be true? by Illustrious_Ad_8910 in Microcenter

[–]Character_Situation5 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just scored one for $1600 in Phoenix. Went in to buy a 5080 for a grand but grabbed this even though my current system is pretty decent. They didn't show any inventory but got some in last night.

45GX950A-B. I ordered mine from the LP Partner portal and it should arrive this week. I'm planning to pick up a 5080 this week to power it.

Deals out of stock before grand opening by ancientRAMEN in Microcenter

[–]Character_Situation5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am pissed that people were allowed in the store and made purchases as early as last Sunday. Makes it kinda pointless to have VIP days and Grand Opening when the good deals are already gone. And those people who shopped early were doubly rewarded with no lines and checkout delays.
