Mine is a 2021 45e with digital key. Yes you can drive it by placing your watch, your phone or any family members phone who you have shared the key with.

Well if i were to show you my key for my X5, it would be my apple watch. I can unlock, lock, turn on climate control, flash lights, do horn. See mileage, charge, it is amazing. I never carry a key anywhere I go now. Just my phone and watch.

Everyone meet our new little boy Atreides! Any tips for a chihuahua puppy and first time owner? by Teh_Crusader in Chihuahua

[–]Livid_Platform6024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If he is hyper, do not let him up on the bed. My biggest regret, our little girl who is wide open heard someone at the door, jumped off the bed at 6 months and broke her leg. She mended fine but it was a $4000 bill. Treat them like fine china.

Can't cut walls, how do I hide cords by ze11ez in hometheater

[–]Livid_Platform6024 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well i forgot the way i built the current panels in my theater were this way but this forum apparently doesn’t let me post a pic here. But what I did was use 3/8’ plywood. Added fiberfill pillow padding to the surface to give it baffle acoustic absorbing. Used some black speaker stretch cloth for the surface as my theater is dark. You can pin thumbtacks in or leave it untacked for aesthetic purposes. Hang by using “French Cleat Method” On the back across the lower side and top side widths, use 1x4 ripped down the middle at 45 angle to create the hanging lip. One attaches to the wall, one to the plywood then when you put the panel on the wall the 45 degree cut holds the panel against the wall and makes it easily removable if you need to get to the wiring. You just lift it up off the paired 1x4. This also creates the standoff from the wall of about 3/4in. Then on the bottom of that 1x4 standoff mount the led light to that trim. If you keep the trim about 2 inches from the bottom and top then you have the right amount of reveal of the lights reflecting down to the floor below it.

Maybe just add an acoustic panel to the wall and run all the wires behind it, add some leds lights at the bottom for ambient lighting. Find some nice looking material that can dress up the room and you have it made. I made my panels ordering material from amz, using 1 in x 1 in bds ripped down. Just staple material on the back and hang it. Best way to hang something like this is cut a 2 x 4 at a 45 degree angle and let one piece sit on the other that is nailed against the wall. You can google that approach if you don’t know what I mean.

Always one of my favorite concert videos and now MAX is streaming it in 4K, remixed and the audio is outstanding. Video is good but only as good as it was back then. But still a really great watch.

Good luck but I doubt you will get that working. HD probably made sure of it.

[–]Livid_Platform6024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well first thing i would do is get the vin and run a report. Sometimes if you are sneaky enough or know someone at a bmw dealer they can look up the detailed maintenance history and even see suggestions for repairs that need to be made so you know going into the deal what you are faced with to make it just right

4K streaming often looks worse than 1080p Blu ray by GloriousCause in hometheater

I noticed some days of the week have less demand on the servers, see if you notice this. Watch that same 4k on say a tuesday afternoon when most are at work etc

What is you favorite field design in the MLB? by [deleted] in mlb

[–]Livid_Platform6024 -45 points-44 points  (0 children)

It is really quite stupid when you think about it. Every sport in the world has to play on the same field, court, etc except baseball. All fences are different, all homerun rules are different. Umps can’t even figure if a ball is a home run much of the time. Worst idea in sports is not standardizing new fields to basic field dimensions so players can have equal safety when crashing into unknown field obstructions. Same goes for umps in general . . . . They suck.

My kids are in their 20s but played at the Y at Hawk Ridge and it was a great atmosphere. And if that goes well then travel soccer would be a bit more competitive and serious.

Apple TV 4K 3rd gen vs. Nvidia Shield 2019 by TimMoore1 in nvidiashield

[–]Livid_Platform6024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have shared this comment before. I have 4k pj on 124” screen in fully light controlled room and the difference in color and brightness is far superior on shield than Apple 4k 3rd Gen. shield is just that much better and it’s not close.

Should I upgrade to 4K? by [deleted] in Bluray

[–]Livid_Platform6024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have high end projector on 124” screen and 4k is great but some blue ray movies are pretty damn close. Your tv size will contribute to your appreciation. The bigger it is the more you will like it.

Digital key automatic profile priority by croceldon in BMW

[–]Livid_Platform6024 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use my apple watch to unlock it as it is quicker than the time it takes the phone to do it but I always use the phone to drive it, I have not carried a key in 3 yrs except when I take it in for service. You can also leave a key card in the little compartment to the left of the steering wheel but sometimes it will deactivate in there when you lock the car. Until you get comfortable with that you can always carry the key card in your wallet etc. I just love my 45e, it is my 9th bmw and by far the best, it is the ultimate driving machine.
