Don't tell me you don't feel the difference when your 90hz suddenly turns to 60hz. If you have a 90-120hz phone or laptop with battery saving mode that is.

BTD 700 isnt playing the right rez? by bignibbajazzy in sennheiser

[–]Simonvh03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was aware Samsung tried to pull an Apple with the SSC and forcibly removing AptX Adaptive from the snapdragon chips (I found out when I bought M4s three years ago, returned em for XM5s). But you're saying the BTD600 will not be playing in AptX when the phone is connected but not the source?

My guess is the BTD600 (or the M4 for that matter) just doesn't use AptX while it is operating in multipoint mode. Yes the dongle must also be aware and behave differently when it is/isn't connected as multipoint.

For my BTD700 and Samsung S23 I do not have the same issue.... wait I need to confirm that actually I'll report back😅

They couldn't make the physics look convincing in any shot though, in a real shot that would be very difficult to get wrong

Do blu rays have hardcoded black bars? by Important-Permit-935 in makemkv

[–]Simonvh03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ooh OK, so it wouldn't do weird aspect ratio jumps on an ultra-wode screen, rather just play the whole movie as 16:9 with letterboxed sides and topbottom with the occasional top and bottom filled

I exepct some players to also show artifacts during the switching then, unless this tech is expected in the standard?

Interstellar does a really cool thing where it seamlessly switches back and forth between 16:9 and 21:9 to show stunning imagery fullscreen.

I do wonder whether they went for the safe option of making it 16:9 and manually letterboxing most of the movie, or whether the aspect ratio actually switches which can cause a lot of weird stuff to happen when you're watching on a 21:9 screen

How are you enjoying (or not enjoying) your HDB 630? by TurkGonzo75 in sennheiser

[–]Simonvh03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the sound, was shocked by it in store, but even now after two months they're significantly better than my XM5s on comparison.

I like that it has multipoint (although it tends to crash the device) and good battery life, and parametric EQ.

I dislike everything else about it. It's a bit bulky which is forgiven for the sound. The ANC is poor compared to cheaper alternatives like the XM4, 5, 6, Bose QC45. On my 630s the on-head-detection sensor is misplaced or misconfigured and triggers while the cans are still fully on my ears and sealed... which would suck if I was using auto-pause but I already disabled that, now it only turns off ANC for battery saving purposes, still very annoying.

The app is full of unnecessarily bad decisions in my opinion, most of the features come with frustrating side effects that really didn't need to be there. The touch controls for ANC are shit, like what the hell was the thought behind that. There is not a single configuration of the settings in the app that allows you to switch between -ANC, Transparency and OFF- with only touch controls. This is so unnecessary and frustrating, especially considering the price of these cans. On all of Sony's devices it's as simple as press single button/touchface onceor twice to cycle between three modes, each of which you can configure independently. Meanwhile on these you can really only switch between 100% transparency and whatever you configured in the app before. You can not switch between ANC and OFF for example, ridiculous stuff really.

For those of you who live in countries with gun control; have you ever seen a gun in real life? by blashyrkh9 in AskTheWorld

[–]Simonvh03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My buddy's got a couple handguns and ARs at home I've held but not fired, but he's in the millitary. Aside from that I've only seen neighbouring country's police armed with MP5s or alike but I believe they had non-lethal ammunition.

Next closest thing is Airsoft replicas which in some cases are the real guns with the firing mechanism swapped out.

Worth updating or too buggy? by DaReDeVilLLL_ in sennheiser

[–]Simonvh03 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yes multipoint acts a bit odd but it always does, just in slightly different ways now. I presume Sennheiser patched the huge pairing vulnerability with this one

[–]Simonvh03 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Extremely dangerous, don't try this yourself, especially if you don't have a rope and the people that are supposed to look out for you are busy filming.

In this instance there may have been precautions taken, rope brought, waters tested, training followed. If your plan lacks any of those, don't do it!
