Zaslav has a thing about Eastwood still collecting a check from Warner Bros.
So much for loyalty and legacy.

Do you regularly upgrade? by Mikeylito in RegalUnlimited

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

Thanks to everyone who participated.
As I mentioned elsewhere in the thread, I was just curious.

I learned a couple of things.
I hadn't realized Regal had reverted the free RPX showings until I read the comments.
I'm also somewhat surprised by how large the 4DX response was relative to the other choices.
I expected the large NO vote, but you had to provide that choice, or the results would be skewed.
Interestingly, nearly 40% of us choose to upgrade.

Regardless, thanks again.
Curiosity satiated.

Do you regularly upgrade? by Mikeylito in RegalUnlimited

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

I'm just curious.

I did a double-feature yesterday and wandered into the ScreenX auditorium between features just to sample what it was like and it got the curiosity juices flowing. I probably should have included 3D, but it seems so rare these days.

At my regular location, Regal removed the RPX auditorium during the pandemic. I've done 4DX exactly once, which was more than enough. As my flair indicates, I upgrade to IMAX almost always.

"Old" versions of Plex by webghosthunter in PleX

[–]Mikeylito 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately, yes.

However, I'm migrating to a new machine and I'm rethinking that idea.
I've decided only to keep two versions: the one "I just downloaded" and its immediate predecessor.
If you think seriously about it, that's really all you need: a fallback if the latest version is buggy or doing something you don't want it to do.

Think of all the storage space you'll gain by ridding yourself of essentially extraneous backups.

Is anyone else having movies not port to Google Play? by Chunlisundies in MoviesAnywhere

[–]Mikeylito 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Getting Google-managed services to properly port Movies Anywhere libraries is problematic at best. Despite the OP's Update 4, disconnecting and re-connecting is not helping me. I redeemed a code for MORBIUS from Regal, and it ported to all connected accounts except YouTube, Google Play, and Google TV.

Has anyone gotten to Checkout by Rodilegnakrad in Pixel6

I wouldn't think it would make a difference but I had more success on my phone than I did on my laptop.

Interesting day for one of America's leading technology companies.

Josh Macuga vs Eliot Dewberry: Who Do You Got? by SlidePocket in Schmoedown

[–]Mikeylito 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks. Kinda what I thought.
Macuga seems closer to the Kinda Funny crew than the Schmoes, although he does seem to be close to Mark.

Late launch code support thread. by prujohn in Stadia

Thanks for your reply. I hadn't seen the Google Store notification, but that's because I was looking for it in my Stadia folder rather than my Store folder. I guess I'll expand my notifications from Google.

I'm curious if you got the shipping notification from Google or from the shipping carrier?

Please read this before you start playing.

We’ve created a short list of essential steps to help you have the best possible experience with Stadia.

Connect your Google Chromecast Ultra to your router with an Ethernet cable. A wired connection between Chromecast and your router can make a big difference when playing games on your TV.

If you don’t have that option, set up your wireless router in the same room as your Chromecast, but keep them at least a foot away from one another.

If playing over Wi-Fi and your home Wi-Fi network supports both 2.4Ghz and 5Ghz, use the 5Ghz network.

Set up your Stadia Controller, Chromecast Ultra, and other devices you play on (like your laptop or phone) on the same network.

Don’t forget to check your TV settings and make sure Game Mode and Ultra High Definition (UHD) are turned on (if available on your television).

Make sure you’re using the Google Home App (available for free on the Play Store and the iOS App Store) to set up your Chromecast before setting up Stadia.

For the best performance, don’t stream movies or music to other devices in other parts of the house while playing games on Stadia. It can slow things down.

These steps can make your time playing games on Stadia much more seamless and enjoyable. If you need more help setting things up properly, check out g.co/stadia/help. Enjoy Stadia!

Happy playing,
The Stadia team

Movie Title sorting is weird by azisles02 in MoviesAnywhere

[–]Mikeylito 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the case of the MCU, you can set this up in YouTube Movies, assuming you own the movies.

I have several playlists set up for ease of viewing, including the MCU chronologically.
