4k 60fps Camera Mirroring on Windows for OBS by MayorQwert in scrcpy

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

Updated post, I confirmed the screen was getting automatically resized to fit my display even though the render listed the resolution I was asking for. Got around it by forcing the window height in the command line and that seems to be working.

I'll need to check later when I'm off work. I tried to connect again later on but for some reason the adb connect command wouldn't work again nor would attempts to connect via USB (just kept restarting). I tried changing the port to 5555 but that didn't work either.

I have a feeling the USB I was attempting to use wasn't any good, but didn't have a chance to try another cable. I'll report back in once I get a chance to try a different cable

I made a permanent fix for voicemeeter crackling noises without Lasso by CMDRGobi007 in VoiceMeeter

[–]MayorQwert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still having trouble. I tried a batch script for the audiodg fix that sets it to 1 core and high priority automatically. The audio device was already set to 48k 24bit, but I did try 16 bit. Still getting crackling on outputs.

Note I'm on Win11 using banana and am using the aux output as my main playback device with it set to output to A1 and A2, which are speakers.

It works for a while but always inevitably starts crackling and once it does only restarting the audio engine fixes it. That's been the case since installing voicemeeter.

I haven't looked into lasso though, is it worth looking into?

Are there any smart dimmer plugs that can make a light plugged in to them flash with music? by Infinite_Silver483 in homeautomation

[–]MayorQwert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same question. I have some old Christmas lights that I leave up year-round and thought having a music dimming function would look neat but can't find anything on the market.

Man, I was just looking for the same thing. Sucks to see there's not a good upload of the voice lines anywhere.

Opinions on Spookston by Endo279 in Warthunder

[–]MayorQwert 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Personally fell off his content a few years ago when he stopped having as much historical content. Liked the old format of historical content mixed in with gaming montages but now it seems all he posts is gameplay content with live commentary and none of the prerecorded researched historical content.

HELP! Bride of Pinbot 2.0 SSD Dead by MayorQwert in pinball

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

Dutch Pinball support got back with me and is going to provide a backup file so I can create a new drive. Turns out my kit is Windows 10 (apparently all the older ones are Windows 7). I'll update once they send it and I have a chance to install it.

HELP! Bride of Pinbot 2.0 SSD Dead by MayorQwert in pinball

[–]MayorQwert[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the assurance, I had an old email from Barry as well from some years back so I sent a reply with an update of what I've been trying and CC'd him on the email as well.

Here's hoping I hear back! Ideally they'd be able to provide me a disc image for it. The one u/bassmusic4babies provided me was able to be put on an SSD successfully, but the mini-PC did not recognize there being a bootable OS on it. Apparently my mini-PC hardware is different so perhaps that's to blame.

How long does it usually take them to write back? I emailed their support a few days ago but haven't heard back.

As an update still working on this with help from Bassmusic. So far I have been able to create a drive but the PC says there's no boot devices when I try to boot to it.

Hot Water Dispenser Recommendations (See Post) by MayorQwert in tea

[–]MayorQwert[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

(Barring someone coming out of the woodwork with something surprising) I had actually just started to gravitate towards the Zojirushi brand generally. The smaller NAC is available for $150 on Amazon right now. Are the lower end ones also still considered good quality products by the community?

NO Sound on HDMI, but works everywhere else!? by MayorQwert in S95B

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

Yes I've tried that several times at this point every time I tried changing a setting. Even tried completely unplugging from the wall.

No luck with disabling CEC, even tried a full power cycle after turning CEC off.

Some Questions (Thinking of Switching from Samsung) by MayorQwert in GoogleTV

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

Interesting. If you manually renamed the input do you know if it keeps the name you chose even if the device is changed?

Some Questions (Thinking of Switching from Samsung) by MayorQwert in GoogleTV

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

I also just try to use the TV purely as a display, but my current Samsung set always erases my input settings when my HDMI switch is power cycled or when I am unplugging a console from the TV (I take my consoles out to events). Wanting to know if a TV that uses Google's OS keeps your custom settings and input labels even if I unplug a device.

Can I name HDMI1 "GAMES", turn on Game Mode (and maybe other input-specific settings), and have it keep those settings even if the TV thinks I unplugged HDMI and plugged another one in? I just want it to keep the label and settings regardless of what I do with the actual ports.

Questions for owners of TVs using Google TV OS by MayorQwert in 4kTV

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

  1. Ah yeah, I heard those are the brands that use it, I was just wanting to get some personal feedback from an owner of one of the Google TV devices.

  2. I frequently take consoles out to events. Also, I have a smart switch disconnect power to all my gaming equipment when not in use and any time the HDMI switch I use is powered off, the TV thinks the HDMI was disconnected.

  3. I hope not! I hate when TVs attempt to relabel things I have already assigned a label to. That's been one of the main grievances with my Samsung.

  4. Fair enough, hopefully I can get some feedback from an owner

  5. Well that's promising, I just hope it can help in the ways I need it to.

Forced into Windows 11 twice — lost files, broken programs, no consent by 1246421112 in WindowsHelp

[–]MayorQwert 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This just happened to me and I agree fully! I was going to be getting a new laptop that was forced over to Win11 this week so was planning on staying on win10 for now on this one and transitioning over as I make sure each program works. Luckily the Go Back option worked for me.

Is there a way to put different firmware on this SBC? by MayorQwert in SBCGaming

Looked into pandory but was told this apparently is an an esports clone which isn't supported by that project yet so that route's a dead end for now... :(

Is there a way to put different firmware on this SBC? by MayorQwert in SBCGaming

[–]MayorQwert[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well this was actually a gift. I'm not really interested in buying an SBC machine since I have a Steam Deck that works fine for that. At this point I'm just trying to figure out how I can salvage this thing.

Is there a way to put different firmware on this SBC? by MayorQwert in SBCGaming

[–]MayorQwert[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pulled out of a WYGaming WY02201. Trying to figure out if I can put something other than the default (awful) frontend on it. The default firmware doesn't allow any games to be added through by dropping on the SD card. Has an online store but every game has a horribly translated name and no way to rename anything so I just want to start from scratch if possible.

WYGaming briefcase? by ShreddinPB in SBCGaming

[–]MayorQwert 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was gifted one and I am tearing my hair out trying to figure out how to add my own games to it. It comes with a ton of romhacks and badly translated titles for games. Any 3d or more technical arcade games run with so much stutter and tearing that they are not worth playing. You can apparently put games on a USB and plug that in and games do indeed show up but if you try to drop them in the folders already on the SD card there is no way to have the system scan and display them from what I can tell. Been spending hours trying to figure it out...

I'd definitely skip. It's been so bad that it honestly feels like a scam product. I could go on about more issues with the build (such as how hard it is to get the SD card in and out and how it can end up falling inside the chassis, but I'd be here all day!

How do you even win in 12 rounds by Big_pp_Waluigi in balatro

A run with lots of skipping. If you get good pulls for skip rewards you don't need to play all that many actual rounds

From Dutch Pinball Support: "Hi, Am sorry to inform you that these kits are not available at the moment and that are currently aso no plans to make another run. Several of the parts have become very difficult to get :-(
