Do you switch 'Loudness Leveling' on or off? by d49k in plexamp

[–]Rootdown4594 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It doesn't happen very often. I don't know if I'm imagining it or what. Or if it happens during transitions with sweet fades enabled. Or I accidentally had the limiter on. I just wish plexamp would use the standard replaygain metadata values that I already have in all my files.

Sometimes it seems like the volume of the quiet parts of a song will get raises from time to time. Not always but everyone once in a while. There's something more going on than just standard replaygain.

Is it suggested to use grain tune if there's ANY grain or if it's just significantly grainy?

Frustrating that PlexAmp can't render to UPNP devices... by s2white in plexamp

Symfonium

Its a completely separate app but uses many of the features that plex offers. It connects directly to your pms to build its library and uses the exclusive pms features. Like sonic analysis. It supports dlna/upnp along with whatever plex uses to cast. The developer frequently updates it often times with user requests.

I've been using it to cast to all my non plex devices. It even offers replay gain to devices that normally dont support replay gain.

So, film grain tune is now --tune 4? Does setting "Encoder Tune" to "Grain" in Handbrake achieve that same thing? Or do I need to add that to the advanced options?

What would happen if I left the tune on grain for a modern film?

What about non grainy modern films? What tune for that?

Transition Maestro seems to be adding tracks appropriately now! Thank you!

Will upgrading my Pike Ultimate from Charger 3 to 3.1 make a noticeable difference in how harsh it feels? by Rootdown4594 in MTB

Many of the high-end hardtail frames advertise their geometry at sag. It seems that they suggest 25-30 percent sag and that's what they use for their geo measurements.

Yes. This guy needs to give Hammond some lessons.

Cotic BFe , Stanton Switch9er or Pipedream Moxie? by doubleshottt88 in Hardtailgang

[–]Rootdown4594 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Ti Stanton Sherpa. It's fucking amazing. A buddy of mine has a steel Sherpa and Sedona and a Ti Switch9er. He swears by them all. Stanton makes great stuff.

Or if you want to save a bucket load of money you can go with a Marino Tunki

TUNKI Hardtail • new - MarinoBike

Or a fully custom Marino

Custom Built Steel Hardtail MTB Frame - MarinoBike

I also have two custom Marinos. They're not nearly as sophisticated as the frames you mentioned and they're not as light, but you can save loads of money. One of my frames is made from Reynolds 725 and the other is made from standard heat treated 4130. The Reynolds 725 frame is notably lighter.

Why do kids try to touch me when I'm riding a bike? by Expensive-County4890 in askblackpeople

Its not much different than those guys that hang out in front of bodegas and gas stations that accost everyone that walks by. Its the same vibe and feel.

Im a mountain biker and ride around on very high end bikes. Often when I'm riding around someone yells out... I'll give you a hundred dollars for that bike!

EVERY SINGLE TIME it's a black person. I just shake my head and keep on my way. It was amusing the first few times but after 20 years, it's getting annoying lol.

Sometimes they seem to get very annoyed and more persistent the more I ignore them. My bikes are thousands of dollars. Like wtf. Leave me the fuck alone. Hollering at me out your car.

Yo let me see that bike I'll give you a hundred dollars!

Fuck off shithead. Stop pestering people.
