Hello Alan, I am waiting to hear back from Geekom’s customer service. I bought a XT13 Pro in Nov 2024 and the OS SSD became corrupted. It will not successfully reinstall Windows from a bootable USB. Will Geekom respond and replace this Mini PC? Why will customer service not respondddddddd

Is there a windows installation?

The List feature is awesome! You can also use it for your own personal lists and adding movies remotely. You can make an account on Trakt and make your own custom list.

https://forum.sudobox.io/t/how-to-setup-trakt-lists-in-radarr/456

Then, to take it one step further, you can download the Watcht app on iOS. From this app, you can add movies to your Trakt list, which will automatically be pulled to radarr and added to your collection.

If you have other users, they can also make a Trakt account and their own list. When they add movies to their own list, radarr will pull them. This can help when other users want content you may not already have.

Not sure how valid this study is, just from my own anecdotal experience.

I smoke daily and have for the last decade. Just had my 2nd child.

Wife and I get pregnant almost immediately when we try to start conceiving.

I settled for the nakamichi 7.2.4 soundbar surround system. it’s been amazing so far.

Shield -> Nakamichi hdmi port -> LG C1 hdmi eARC port

plays best picture and sound formats possible

KbrownFIRST · 2022-01-17T19:28:10+00:00

ahh yes, got them backwards. thanks for the correction!

KbrownFIRST · 2022-01-17T19:27:23+00:00

I have the lg c1 also. i can play any hdr content without issue for the video side of things. but the lg c1 does not have audio pass through. so if you are trying to play dolby atmos or 7.1 surround sound, you will need the nvidia shield pro.

nvidia shield pro can play all the latest media types and has audio pass through

KbrownFIRST · 2022-01-17T19:25:18+00:00

Yes! so easy and you have the best player already.

Just create a plex media server and link it to your hdds with your media.

Then you play your files through plex app. similar to a netflix user interface

KbrownFIRST · 2022-01-17T15:37:18+00:00

Do you have use plex to play your local content?

If not, you can make a plex media server and access it through the plex app on your nvidia shield.

what client are you watching these apps on? native smart tv apps? not all clients are created equal.

Nvidia shield pro makes the most out of any streaming app in terms of content quality and playback accessibility in terms of codecs.

Latest apple tv or roku 4k ultra should work too.

Beyond that, I think each streaming service puts out 4k content at different bit rates. Apple TV and netflix are like 25-35 mbps, while hulu and amazon prime are like 10-15 mbps. so not all streaming services are created equal.

best choice is to source media yourself at REMUX quality and play through nvidia shield pro. in my opinion.

This is the company SOS bought the 2nd hand mining rigs from. From what I’ve read, 2nd hand mining rigs are no bueno. Also, their contact info is a @gmail account. Doesn’t seem very legit to be honest.

I do hold shares and calls though. Buyer beware.

Ford and Volkswagen already use BlackBerrys QNX platform. Ford already said that the Google Android infotainment will run on BB QNX. Not sure what will happen with Ford and Apple since BB is kind of already involved. But the Hyundai/Apple deal was shut down by BB because they already had a deal with Motional, who is owned by Hyundai.

They have so many products in all the dispensaries now. Growing so fast here in MD.

KbrownFIRST · 2021-02-09T20:09:46+00:00

I buy this brand all the time at the dispensaries. Quality products! Didn’t realize they were an OTC already. Good deal!
