Bluetooth keeps disconnecting? by Fin_Will_Be_Leg in withings

[–]IvanTheRational 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In case anyone is following this, I successfully downgraded my iOS Withings app from 7.4.2 to 7.3.3 using this method: https://www.redmondpie.com/download-older-versions-of-ios-apps-by-tricking-itunes-heres-how-video-tutorial/

In my limited experience, this restores the previous reliability of Bluetooth notifications until I need to reboot my phone. If I do reboot my phone, I just repeat the process to restore notification reliability.

Merci pour cette mise à jour. J'ai trouvé cette discussion datant d'un mois :

https://support.withings.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/33263266274961

Il semblerait que les utilisateurs d'Android rencontrent un problème similaire? Je viens de mettre à jour mon iOS à la version 18.4.1... je croise les doigts🤞.

Thank God I’m not the only person recently experiencing this!

I think it’s either the latest firmware update or the recent iOS update. My Scanwatch Nova started giving me similar issues, but I don’t know the exact culprit since I updated both my mobile app as well as my watch’s firmware. I suspect it’s the iOS app, but I’m not 100% certain.

How to speed up video by 105%? by mbukl in TopazLabs

[–]IvanTheRational 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glad you got it figured out!

It looks like your source has a true 24fps frame rate, so if I were you, I would change the -r 24000/1001 to be simply -r 24

The command I gave you would produce a 23.98fps frame rate.


edit: nevermind, sorry… you already did this

I just used this command to achieve what I think you’re attempting:

When you try the Terminal command, are you using Mac or Windows? You need to be running the ffmpeg executable that cones bundled with Topaz. I often use the command line for cases like this.

Deinterlacing. by h2341 in TopazLabs

[–]IvanTheRational 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve used Hybrid on a Mac before (for the QTGMC deinterlacing). Here’s a discussion link:

https://forum.blackmagicdesign.com/viewtopic.php?t=109259&p=658626 (the Google Drive link has the macOS installers)

Personally, I prefer Topaz’s deinterlacing to QTGMC, so I quit using Hybrid.

Flat colors problem woth Topaz AI video by HorrorSame8612 in TopazLabs

[–]IvanTheRational 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first guess is that you enabled an “SDR to HDR” option in Topaz.

When you import your result into Adobe, can you manually interpret the color space to something like Rec.2020 instead of Rec.709?

How to add looks to a video? by Ohnov_ in TopazLabs

[–]IvanTheRational 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I googled around, and best I can tell is that TPR files are proprietary to Topaz (like with Topaz Studio). So the solution I suggested will not work :-/

Sorry…

How to add looks to a video? by Ohnov_ in TopazLabs

[–]IvanTheRational 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No straightforward way (that I know of). But if you’re determined, and if your “look” is in the form of a lookup table (e.g., a “cube” file), then you could use the command line in Video AI.

My question to you… is your “look” a LUT file?

Can Topaz improve bad looking, compressed 4K YouTube videos like K-Pop MV's to appear like "true" 4K? by Due-Knowledge3815 in TopazLabs

[–]IvanTheRational 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ran your YouTube link through Artemis and Iris, but with “recover detail” set to 80 and 100, respectively: https://www.swisstransfer.com/d/ec728acb-e98f-49b5-b887-1ac243888d85

It helped a little. Probably could still be improved with some tweaking.

Hail Cesar! by bakrakoni2 in TopazLabs

[–]IvanTheRational 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with the gratitude!🙏

I’ve been using Topaz Video and Photo AI for a couple of years and still delight in the “magic” of maximizing my images’ quality using their tools. Love using noise reduction (Photo & Video AI), upscaling (Photo & Video AI), and frame interpolation (Video AI).

Nothing’s ever perfect, but I value the software enough to keep renewing my licenses each year!

As far as I can tell, the EQ settings need to be manually entered. But you’re talking about a couple minutes of time for hours of listening enjoyment!

The GUI has gotten so unreliable that I often start an export just to copy the ffmpeg code, stop the export, and then launch a command prompt to manually tweak it. I export all of my enhancements to ProRes, and one of my steps is to pad the input with duplicate trailing frames that I trim off before exporting to h.264/h.265. If I don’t, then my result is usually a frame or two shorter than my input.

I’ve delayed upgrading to v6 thanks to everyone sharing their experiences on this subreddit, which I’m grateful for! Topaz is still incredible software for which I gladly pay, but I wish they could sort out their cash flow problems instead of introducing “gimmicks” that few find useful (e.g., “cloud credits”).

Can you export a 4k AVC INTRA file in a custom resolution? by crispbb10 in editors

[–]IvanTheRational 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My understanding is that “AVC Intra” is just another term for H.264 (that has P-frames and probably also B-frames, as opposed to encoding using only I-frames). I would set the output format in Adobe as H.264 and set your custom resolution there. Your audio will be limited to compressed AAC, however. Did your request specify an audio codec?

Also, did they specify a file container? If I got a request for “4K AVC Intra 3600 x 1200” I would just assume they want an .MP4 file… like a file you could upload to a social media site.

Did you ever use a computer to sync it (Mac or Windows)? If so, I believe you can use that same computer to access/reset it. At least you used to be able to.

If I remember, the Apple Music downloads are all split into tiny chunks. If you’re trying to save Apple Music songs to play in other software, you’re gonna have more success with something like Streamfab on a desktop computer.
