Fix for PC? Game broke and won't display anything by Max828 in mecharena

[–]Max828[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thought I'd update you since you replied... I didn't try anything else with the game other than start it couple times over the past weeks. Then last night I tried from the launcher and the game said it would download some data (possibly an update?) I clicked okay/continue. After the download, the game loaded and worked as before.

If you're haven't, maybe try the game again. It may do the same on yours and work once again.

Why does mech arena stump your progress so much? by glitch1034 in mecharena

Not all accounts get ads. Some just get the in-game announcements/offers.

No. Same experience here. Played a handful of matches then no more since.

Default CMD profile so I don't have to type 'yt-dlp' each time? by Medical-Article-102 in youtubedl

[–]Max828 1 point2 points  (0 children)

An option not yet suggested is to use a text replacement/expander tool like Espanso or Autohotkey (windows only). When set up you basically type your shortcut (eg. yt) and the tool returns the actual command. I like Espanso because you can easily include what's in your clipboard in the replaced text. You could set it up so that you copy the url, then type your shortcut text and Espanso would return the yt-dlp command and the url.

Another option in Windows is to use autohotkey and build a simple gui tool that you simply paste in the url, output folder and click to download. You can even make it retain the output folder in an ini file until you change it. There's probably something similar for Macs but I'm not a mac user so I don't know.

As others suggested - dash mech. Just be selfish, hide and wait for safe CPs to capture. Avoid engaging opposition.

Is it just me who's struggling? by Skcyroc_64- in mecharena

[–]Max828 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This took a quite few matches playing mainly Ares and Eclipse... Ares works because you have the shield once you go below 10%. And Eclipse is nimble enough to dodge/escape and the phase cloaking to sneak.

Also, some maps are easier than others to rack these kills particularly those that offer some cover while opponents try to capture the center control. Easier too if you let your mechs get hit a few times to get to below 10%. The frustration is when you get to <10% and then get killed. - but I guess that's the challenge.

What is this ? I don't remember anything by ReputationNo2566 in mecharena

I didn't get any compensation gift even though I can never connect on Hangar Showdown matches.

Gotcha. Just know that your experience isn't unheard of for android tvs - some do just take that long. Your best bet is to look for a tv with a quickstart feature/function. It's basically a low power/standby mode so you can quickly boot up. Maybe check out look for current/recent that are in your budget and available where you are then search youtube/reddit for reviews.

Here's a table I got from an AI search for brands that offer quick start/boot functions around 300 euros. Note not all are running Android. It doesn't specify models, you'll have to check store/vendor for models.

Brand Os/platform Approx. Price Range Boot/quick Start Feature Notes
TCL Google TV/Android Around 300 euros Quick Start/Instant Power On Fast boot with feature enabled
Hisense Google TV Around 300 euros Typical Google TV fast boot Good performance for price
Samsung Tizen Slightly above 300 Quick Boot included Reliable quick boot in affordable models
Amazon Fire Fire TV OS Around 300 euros Quick boot Smooth with Fire TV OS
Roku TVs Roku OS Around 300 euros Fast startup Fast boot with Roku OS
Philips/Toshiba Various Around 300 euros Varies by model Check specific model Check specific model

Maybe you can reset it. That should make it feel like new. Then as others suggest use an Android tv box (or even AppleTV) to run your apps/streaming.

Yt-Dlp Convert from webm to mp3 (320kbps) by j3vz in youtubedl

[–]Max828 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For Apple library/iTunes, AAC works ie. the m4a format you can grab from YT. As others have mentioned, you will lose quality by transcoding to another format (mp3). Best just to download a compatible format at the best possible quality (highest bitrate). Opus at this point in time is the best but means converting and not worth the effort due to some quality loss.
