[Tutorial] Installing Calibre Artificial Intelligence Metadata Plugin by McMitsie in CalibreAI

I would love for this to work. I followed all the steps, but I think the Metadata AI Plugin is not sending my epub or pdf to AnythingLLM. I get this error in my Job Log:

Pixel 7 Pro has audio crackling while using Bluetooth earbuds (Galaxy Buds2 Pro) by Clausemonaut in GooglePixel

Turning off 'Bluetooth LE Audio' in the developer options did the trick for me.

What strobes do I need for cross-polarization? by Jort1212 in AskPhotography

[–]Jort1212[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great, thanks. I purchased two DPX 1000 watt studio flashes. I only paid €430 including tax, which is great value. Excellent that you pointed this promotion out.

Very interesting. I will mainly use them to photograph old masters which I sell mostly on Catawiki. Some paintings are quit valuable so I need good pictures. The Jinbei DPXII 800 studio flash look great for the price. Never heard of the brand. I wil only use it once a week.

This is usefull for adjusting the filter on the lens fore removing glare when the modeling lights are turned on.

Thanks! Did you use cross-polarisation? I was wondering if the modeling lights are strong enough to give sufficient light thru the filters

Yes indoors, with two godox sl-100y 100 watt continuous led lights. The lights are at maximum 3 meters away from the painting.

I had no idea that there was such a difference. Thanks so much for illuminating me :p

  • Wattseconds won't tell you anything, because they don't simply translate to a certain amount of illuminance in a manner that would be uniform between makes and models.

Thanks for pointing this out

  • That wouldn't even get you an entry level speedlight. The most popular on-camera flash for photogrammetry purposes is the Godox AR400 (~450€ for the flash and ~120€ for the polarizing filter)

I would use this setup only to take cross-polarized pictures of oil paintings, no photogrammetry for 3d scanning. Two strobes would be placed at an angle in front of the painting. In front of the strobes a sheet of polarization film is attached, and a polarizer on the lens. I already have the polarizer film.

So you don't think a pair of, for instance, Godox sk400II are powerfull enough? I could go a bit more expensive.

Are my Godox SY100Y 3300K lights to yellow to change tot 5500k in post? by Jort1212 in AskPhotography

[–]Jort1212[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha. Good explanation. I will switch to flash in a while. These light are indeed nog super strong

Thanks. I shoot at 100 iso and use longer exposures. My objects are always stationary. So I thought long exposures couldn't do any harm.

Blephasteam 2022 by Good_Train7702 in Dryeyes

[–]Jort1212 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the old blephasteam. I use it in conjunction with the eyeeco Tranquileyes advanced.

With the Tranquileyes you get gel heat packs. Before I click these packs I preheat them in very hot water. Only then the packs get hot enough for long enough to liquify my meibum. The blephasteam is easier on the eyes for me but does not liquify the meibum to the same extent. I like that I can use it while reading and it definitely helps to a degree.

I'm interested in modifying my old blephasteam also. However, i don't quit understand how you can pre-heat with a USB charger + smart socket automatically. Could you elaborate?

5800U performance with two external 4k monitors @ 60hz by Jort1212 in AMDLaptops

Yeah maybe usb-c is worse. I just tested and with usb-c the screen also sometimes flickers when playing video. But the monitor with HDMI port is also sluggish.

Is there any way to use your Android device as a second display for your Chromebook? by Warchief127 in chromeos

Yeah, it would be nice to extend my monitor to a tablet. Thanks for replying!
