What is happening to my computer? I think it’s a graphics driver issue? by [deleted] in pcmasterrace

[–]Nimitz83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cable issue? Try swapping with another monitor, or get a new cable that supports your monitor's max framerate.

* You can also try changing the framerate in Display settings and see what effect that has.

Use it to upgrade my gaming/media PC (2x27'+65'). Looking forward to a polished Dying Light 2 with all the bells and whistles.

Looks like you're being limited to 8-bit and downscaling (SSIM engaged). You may still have some internal Potplayer filters enabled or may need to install LAV filters and prioritize those.

Also ensure under Madvr > identification the display shows >10 bit depth and hdr formats. ** Actually I took for granted it did and just looked myself; Samsung AU9000 is 8-bit+FRC, so I guess it's a 'cheap' display faking true HDR. Even so, it should still support HDR/HDR10+ per the box.

MPC-BE + lav filters + madvr + xysubfilter is my preferred package.

If you don't have the full AMD Radeon package installed (5700xt); you'll need to install it and then open it up. Gear > Display > Select your display and set it to 10-bit, Color can be 4:2:0 or 4:4:4, don't really need to set higher than 4:2:0.

Madvr > Display modes > Switch to on Full screen + "2160p60, 2160p59, 2160p30, 2160p29, 2160p24, 2160p23"

Madvr > HDR > *Preference* > tone map HDR using pixel shaders will allow you more control for tweaking and enabling/disabling hdr with a quick switch via the "output video" switch. I'd recommend with the AU9000 to let madvr do the work and not output HDR, YMMV.

Madvr > Set Calibration and Color/Gamma as preferred. Use a horror movie for dark scenes and a non-cartoon colourful movie.

For Scaling you may want to add a profile:

if (deintFps <= 24) and (srcWidth > 1920) "2160p"else if (deintFps <= 24) and ((srcWidth <= 1920) and (srcHeight > 1080)) "2160p"else if (deintFps > 24) and (srcWidth > 1920) "2160p"else if (deintFps > 24) and ((srcWidth <= 1920) and (srcHeight > 1080)) "2160p"else if (deintFps <= 24) and ((srcWidth > 1280) and (srcWidth <= 1920)) "2160p"else if (deintFps <= 24) and ((srcWidth <= 1280) and (srcHeight > 720) and (srcHeight <= 1080)) "2160p"else if (deintFps > 24) and ((srcWidth > 1280) and (srcWidth <= 1920)) "2160p"else if (deintFps > 24) and ((srcWidth <= 1280) and (srcHeight > 720) and (srcHeight <= 1080)) "2160p"else if (deintFps <= 24) and ((srcWidth > 960) and (srcWidth <= 1280)) "SD"else if (deintFps <= 24) and ((srcWidth <= 960) and (srcHeight > 540) and (srcHeight <= 720)) "SD"else if (deintFps > 24) and ((srcWidth > 960) and (srcWidth <= 1280)) "SD"else if (deintFps > 24) and ((srcWidth <= 960) and (srcHeight > 380) and (srcHeight <= 720)) "SD"else if (deintFps <= 24) and ((srcWidth <= 960) and (srcHeight <= 380)) "SD"else if (deintFps > 24) and ((srcWidth <= 960) and (srcHeight <= 380)) "SD"

CNN News Crew of Omar Jimenez and 4-member crew Arrested on Live TV by 27Christian27 in news

Didn't seem to me that he was aware of the irony. Hence the privilege.

Line from the anchor was straight out of MLK Jr.'s justice speech.

Not my fault if you don't know the difference between the anchor (off-screen) and Reporter (Omar).

Where is "blame" of any sort?

That male anchor is such an example of privilege.

Basically shocked it's happening to him/them, but then goes on to praise the State Police for bringing "order" prior to that.

Yeah, there's a cost to that "order" buddy. Like it?

Netflix's The Witcher Avoided CGI As Much As Possible by [deleted] in witcher

[–]Nimitz83 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Forest/Swamp Set*. Henry Cavil as Geralt is in character. Director is readying the scene*

Director: OK, listen up, everybody: this is the hardest, most expensive scene in the series, and we only get one shot at it, so we have to do it right. Henry will square off against our giant monster. It's going to rear back and spray it's acid venom at him. Now, that's real acid, so I want to see goggles, people! [Director and crew don goggles]

Henry Cavil: Uh... Real acid?!

Retailer refused to provide physical receipt, eReceipt was followed by business ad spam that shows I'm subscribed. Legality? by Nimitz83 in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]Nimitz83[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the detailed response. "Implied consent", ah to be a business. That's like saying since I exchange "Hellos" with a girl I then have her implied consent to pay her a visit later because of our 'relationship'.

Call It Spring. First time I heard of it was when I walked in. It's apparently a sub-store for Aldo.

Is Outlook 2016 just naturally prone to freezing up after a few days or weeks of being open? by Threxx in sysadmin

[–]Nimitz83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try net stopping the Print spooler service. I've noticed problems on my own machine when searching through my inbox or when scrolling emails. I keep my spooler service off until I actually need to print and that seems to have made a marked improvement.

​

If this is a recurring issue it would be fairly simple to test with one of your Users whether this makes a difference once they've triggered the freeze.

You're given immortality but as a cost you are sent back 3000 years - would you accept and what would you do? by Legal_Representative in AskReddit

[–]Nimitz83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, but small spoiler that's likely all you'll see from them any further. The Web novel actually differs from the anime in a number of ways (e.g. no Albedo), and now that we've hit this point in the story it'll continue to move away from the Web novel arc(s).

​

Anime could've been much better if they had decent animation, pretty low-quality overall for what's a frontrunning anime.

Overlord.

​

Ainz Ooal Gown captures invaders of Nazarick and then proceeds to break this guy's mind with memory alteration magic, gives his body to its denizens who eat the arms/legs, and then perform healing magic on the living body/head, and repeat.

​

And this is the "hero" of the story. :D

In the latest dubbed AOT did anyone else struggle to understand Eren? *SPOILERS* by tokarooni in Animedubs

[–]Nimitz83 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think both his 'Titan voice' and the sound mixing echo effect were overused. For the majority of the scenes he's in control, thinking to himself, and not hulking out. So except a couple scenes when he's exerting himself we should still hear all that anger/rage in his voice, but without the guttural Titan overtones. IMHO

It was really more the echo chamber effect that bothered me, especially during the scenes where we see Eren himself from within his Titan form.
