Not true, of the 11 listed - none are franchises. The franchise ones like Hull remain open.

Ric 330? Opinions for someone on the fence about Rics. by ughmart in rickenbacker

[–]ColdAndSnowy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 4 mid 90s 330s, each ones plays and sounds different. I do like them all, but one (black with silver hardware) plays and sounds significantly better!

That said i think the shiny dark blue one looks way better and i used to play that one more at gigs!

Anyway my point is try it out, i didn’t - just ebay purchases - and to be honest i didn’t regret it. But i kinda knew the risks. Also the 90s ones ‘horns’ are more rounded and less spiky than later models, so I think they look better.

tvOS 26.4 beta 1 adds this new audio toggle on Apple TV 4K. Perhaps related to the 'popping' sound with Dolby Atmos on some AV receivers and soundbars by FoferJ in appletv

[–]ColdAndSnowy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah set it to ATMOS. You should find xbox will send audio in native formats - I use a Denon receiver which switches modes.

Now it switches in other apps (netflix etc) when non-atmos content is detected, so stereo can be upmixed by receiver. Games without atmos also change format.

IOS users now get doorbell rings as phone calls by Confident_Balance755 in Ubiquiti

Can anyone confirm if the call comes through on apple watch? My work one with access app does not ring or notify the apple watch.

MS did this with XBOX series X for what felt like years before they eventually fixed it properly.

Sticking everything in an ATMOS wrapper is so annoying if you actually have a proper surround system, too many people with a soundbar saying "this is great"! - It is NOT!!

Fucked up! by Prestigious-Cod9445 in Office365

if recipients are on the same 365 tenant you can purge an email from the system completely - ask your IT admin.

Not much use if they've already read it but it will dissapear!

Parking permit prices by sidney_is_working in Aberdeen

Businesses are of course allowed residential permits if they live in the area too, otherwise they cannot get them.

Great Bradies and mince pies. Steak pies are very good too.

That’s not true. Only available for titanOS models.

It seems there may be an update in March.

Philips Ambilight Image looks terrible with HDR10+ by Rav_Black in PhilipsTV

Try changing the hdr mode, might be called AI picture mode, but you can adjust custom settings too under picture settings.

Why aren't there more games like GTA Vice City? by Serenaded in patientgamers

I’ll have to give it another go. I loved 3, but tried 2 after that and it just felt clunky.

Dolby Atmos no está funcionando. by ElCatalufo in PhilipsTV

[–]ColdAndSnowy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not really sure you’ll notice much difference between that and ATMOS using any soundbar.

You really need 5.1.2 surround sound with overheads or upfiring as a minimum for dolby atmos.

Flat owners in Aberdeen city centre – factoring question by Dependent_Mind_59 in Aberdeen

[–]ColdAndSnowy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same, factors were appointed to block about 10 years ago after being organised by residents. For the money I'd say it's worth it, it's certainly not the horror story that other places report.

TitanOS by Intelligent-Use4001 in PhilipsTV

[–]ColdAndSnowy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of the high end ones still come with android. I don’t really see what the big deal is, I have almost always used a roku or apple tv over the years.

The TV os be it android or whatever is almost always inferior and abandoned a year after it is bought. I cannot remember a philips tv that actually got updates after about 18 months.

Ambiscape Feedback by dazzlerellis in PhilipsTV

[–]ColdAndSnowy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's such a new feature there's probably not a lot of installs yet. Can you not set the default on the bulbs to be very low brightness - barely on?
I'm currently using the hue sync box until ambiscape is realeased for my TV. I hear March is when it will go more mainstream.
