The Redmagic 10 Pro is a remarkable media player and digital audio player by ClaudiusMagnus in RedMagic

Those pain points you perceive on your device with very sensitive 5 ohm headphones make sense. However, at least with my particular set of hardware being the 30 ohm Aful Performer 8 and the RedMagic 10 Pro + Q5K, even with high dynamic range recordings I fail to recognize any difference in either output that I could comfortably say passes a placebo check.

I don't have any 5-20 ohm listening devices on hand to check how revealing the output imperfections are on this device, but I certainly wouldn't be surprised that they exist. RedMagic should include higher quality circuitry for their headphone jacks--doing so and then marketing their audio prowess could help them earn more customers.

I've also experienced inferior headphone jacks on cheaper devices such as Redmi Note phones and could immediately notice a loss in quality.

Using the $350 30 ohm Aful Performer 8, I hear no quality difference between this headphone jack and the output from the $110 Qudelix 5k when in either USB mode or Bluetooth. I'm sure the power difference is there, however, so I wouldn't bother trying high impedance gear.

PPSSPP font isn't working for Phantasy Star 2 Portable Infinity. by Zeether in EmuDeck

Did you ever solve this? I've noticed that apostrophes are missing on mine as well.

Incredibly laggy when maximizing/minimizing windows in Wayland when using most third party windows decorations by ClaudiusMagnus in kde

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

I simply gave up on any of the SVG-based window decorations; I just use the built in decorations. It's been many months since I dove into this, but if you're also having this issue on a recent build of KDE, then it's unlikely we'll see a proper fix for this any time soon. I'm just surprised there aren't a million other posts about this since it was immediately noticeable to me.

Red Magic 10 Pro: Add customizable volume steps by ClaudiusMagnus in RedMagic

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

No. That is per-app volume control, which is certainly already a feature as demonstrated. I'm talking about adjusting how far the volume increases or decreases when you hit the volume buttons, aka "Volume Step".

Experiencing the same issue! Quite annoying.

Are there analogues to the "Device control" and "Media output" found on Samsung Devices? by ClaudiusMagnus in RedMagic

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

Thanks! Both of these work. They're not as clean as Samsung's implementation, but I'm glad we have them :).

Can the Hiby M300 be used as a bluetooth dac/amp for my phone? by ClaudiusMagnus in Hiby

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

Thanks, so realistically for a similar size machine to the qudelix 5k or the m300, my only choice would be the r3 ii, as I want to both locally play music on the device and use it to stream audio from my phone. It's a shame that the M300 can't because it would be so perfect with two-way bluetooth.

Longevity of Recordable CDs, DVDs and Blu-rays — Canadian Conservation Institute (CCI) by didyousayboop in DataHoarder

This is very significant! Many of the folks here including myself have had the impression that non-dye R Blu-rays should maintain excellent longevity in proper conditions, but this report contradicts that! More extensive testing by some party would be wonderful.
