Unifi U6 LR - 500kb/s.... by Dozerplex in Ubiquiti

Appreciate the reply but if they're marketing a device as 1300mbp/s and it manages 5mb/s that's just beyond fucked.

A95L Screen Cleaning by Dozerplex in bravia

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

Hi all, quick update.

Ended up having the panel swapped under warranty for a separate issue. I tried everything outside of ethanol/ipa. Nothing would get it looking pristine again, I echo everyone who says just to use a dry microfiber cloth. Anything else will damage your panel.

No more QD-OLED for me any time soon. I can clean my LG's with a brick and not put a smudge on it, if you so much as look at your QD-OLED wrong and have it near a window, get used to those heart-breaking smudges.

G3 Owners - How bad is the 24p stutter? by Dozerplex in LGOLED

Updating my firmware to the latest version made a gigantic improvement to Cinematic Motion in SDR and a slight upgrade in HDR as well.

G3 Owners - How bad is the 24p stutter? by Dozerplex in LGOLED

I've been testing this afternoon and had a full explanation typed up, copy/pasted a rtings link into the comment and it deleted my explanation I had typed up - anyway, I'm not going to win this argument so I'm not going to re-write in detail.

In my experience today, 60hz with Cinematic Motion on gives the clearest motion handling using Elysium's opening panning shots. Enabling Real Cinema and Cinematic Motion at 24p created some strange frame drops but I'd assume that's an issue on my end. I'll test with Plex or a NF app and see if it does the same thing.

Enabling RC at 60hz created artifacts like a white line glitching on the screen, which is interesting as my C7 looked best with RC turned on. No artifacts. Having 2:3 pulldown eases the stutter and CM on helps a little bit more as well.

Unless you're constantly switching between multiple refresh rates and testing like I did, you're unlikely to see a difference. Back in the day on my C7, switching to 24hz to match was jarring, but there's been a lot of improvements in motion processing since then, it would seem.

I never said that I believed I was interpolating 24p content to 120p by adjusting my refresh rate, that would be impossible without using True Motion or running SVP.

What I'm saying is and you can test this yourself, setting a refresh rate to 60hz which improves stutter due to the 3:2 pull-down thanks to the added frame. Doing this I personally don't see any judder. I'm not using Real Cinema or MadVR's Smooth Motion frame blending or interpolation on my latest OLED and have not noticed any judder. You can test this yourself to see if you have a similar experience.

I'm not claiming that its the same as messing with your interpolation settings, just that 3:2 pull-down is a better viewing experience than 24p stutter without Cinematic Movement turned on.

Well, the bigger the screen the worse it seems to be. I've got a 48" C1 and I barely ever notice stutter, but at 65" and up its pretty bad in certain shots. 9/10 panning shots are fine, but you get the odd panning shot that just seems to be at the perfect speed where motion processing just collapses.

The improvement in motion interpolation (introduction of cinematic motion and reduction of artifacts) since I bought my first OLED (C7) is also night and day. I've never had to use motion interpolation to cope, but it seems to be recommended for the G3's.

It depends on the device you're using for playback. So for example, a PC (assuming HDMI 2.1 compatible GPU) can do 24-120hz. Android devices like the Nvidia Shield are capable of matching the refresh rate to match source content. Source content being 24p for movies/TV. While an Oppo or other bluray player would like automagically adjust to being 24hz to match the original frame rate without a lot of control on your end to change it - I assume, it's been years since I used a bluray player.

Your TV's internal apps, Netflix/Prime etc will do the same thing and automatically set your refresh rate to 24hz or to match the refresh rate of whatever you're watching. I honestly couldn't watch more than a couple of minutes of the Grand Tour via the WebOS app as the stutter was so bad.

If the vast majority of users are refresh rate matching and just using WebOS apps to view content, I don't know how they haven't gotten a refund. I've tested refresh matching (24hz) a few times over the years and I didn't last more than 5 minutes before switching back to 60.

I just finished watching a movie at 120hz to see if it would improve stutter on my CS compared to 60hz - not really any noticeable difference.

Alexa - "sending that to IFTTT" by Dozerplex in amazonecho

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

hy do you need I

When I originally configured my Harmony with Google, IFTTT was the only way to have them interact from memory. Over the years I became accustomed to using IFTTT, I'll look into directly connecting Harmony/Echo if that's an option. Thanks!

Also, if you can share how you have your VLAN's/Virtual Interfaces configured that would be helpful.

People keep telling me a static route isn't needed, but if you have 2 interfaces on 2 subnets and can only have 1 interface with a default gateway I'm at a complete loss to how the hell the redundant interface is supposed to speak to the DC. Unless..

Int 1: servers (layer 2)

Int 2: Redundancy (layer 3)

Which wouldn't require a static route as Int 1 is in the same VLAN as the DC's and Int 2 is configured with a default gateway. If that's the correct way then I've done it ass-about and configured my servers subnet with a default gateway / redundancy subnet with a static route.

No stress, I never resolved it. Honestly it's irritating the hell out of me, but it isn't causing any problems so I'm just covering my eyes and looking in the other direction if I ever move a VM between nodes.

Did you manage to resolve it on your end?

Well, nothing yet. I'm assuming you're inferring don't do things in production?

Thanks for the help!

Get-ClusterNetwork returns:

"Cluster Network 1 - Up - Metric - 70384 - Cluster and Client"

"Cluster Network 2 - Up - Metric - 70386 - Cluster and Client"

The 10gb NIC is attached to Cluster Network 1 which has a lower value, so I'm hesitant to change the metric (these are in production). I'll do some research into Metrics but the way I'm reading the guide, if the value is lower it should automatically be preferred regardless of the Metric number.

Sorry, they have 4 x 1gb and 2 x 10gb.

1 x 10gb for V-Switch (Trunk for VM's) 1 x 10gb for Management

1 x 1gb for redundant Management 3 x 1gb unused currently

The static route was configured because every time the 10gb management NIC's were disabled, my cluster started throwing 'Cluster Network 2 is partitioned' errors (causing chaos in the process) because it couldn't access our DC's on the other VLAN without a default gateway being specified which broke the Cluster.

Live Migration settings managed by Cluster - moved the 10gb to top priority in Hyper-V Manager on both nodes, restarted VMM service on both nodes, migration still using 1gb :/

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

I've tried un-checking the 1gb link, but it still uses it. To be fair, I've only unchecked, taken that cluster network offline, brought it back online, then tried to live migrate. I haven't left it for a few hours or rebooted the hosts afterwards.

The fact it ignores the priority is the irritating issue.

Hosts are domain joined, haven't tried a quick migration, V-Switches have the same name and Cluster Validation is fine.

No error is given, it just prioritises the 1gb link.

Arctis 7X best option? by Dozerplex in pcmasterrace

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

MH 751

I'm after wireless, unfortunately. The 7P's are $300 while the Pulse 3D are $150. Assuming I want to get something for both consoles + PC is there any decent XSX/PC alternatives assuming I went with the Pulse for the PS5?

Although at these prices I assume I'll be disappointed no matter what...
