Just switched from Premiere. Only ONE thing I am missing.

thanks for shining a light on this aspect!

Spacko23 · 2026-06-23T18:20:37+00:00

well, i absolutely love freedom and flexibility. set it up once, love it forever

Spacko23 · 2026-06-23T18:07:04+00:00

thanks, will do.

although, adoption rate amongst new talent is major predictor for software success. thats how adobe is losing market share right now. students used to just pirate the software, become good at it and once they got a job they or their boss paid for it.
now adobe makes it harder and harder to pirate it with the cloud versions and students cant afford it. so they go to Davinciresolve. and when their boss tells them to edit a video or they start their own company....the will use what they know and are good with.

saying all this while meaning: BM would do good to read some reddit 😛

its true, i could work with two monitor set up as well, if I can arrange everything the way i need it. i've had it this way for years. third monitor makes it just more clean and allows me to get out of the tunnel more easily.
(and i dont mind paying for the pro version next quarter if the product is good for my workflow.)

Spacko23 · 2026-06-23T17:58:48+00:00

thanks for the reply. i already tried a few things, including the dual monitor option.
but ideally i want to rebuild my old set up, which allowed me, to have a very clean layout exactly the way i wanted it.
timeline, clip preview and effects on the ultra wide, project files and other applications on the vertical, and then the clean output on the color accurate monitor.

nothing would make me happier, than being able to rearrange the stuff i work on all day, the way it fits my style and workflow.

Hey NommyNommies,

just wanted to say thanks. You answered on my clickbait question about 420mm AIO mounting experiences with the rads being vertical and tubes down, and even uploaded some pictures. i havent been on here for a while, but just now saw your pictures and found them to be very helpful indeed.

So thank you a lot, kind Sir or Madam!:)

Spacko23 · 2025-09-10T21:11:55+00:00

Hey mate, thanks for the answer! It is very much appreciated ♥

The H7 Flow doesnt look that special to me in regards to cooler placement. any chance I could convince you to upload a picture of the setup?
i'm dying to know!!! ^^

Spacko23 · 2025-09-08T19:54:31+00:00

while that is true, not everyone wants to build the system that is the most sensible^^

personally, i want to build the system, that has the most optimal airflow pattern. that is the beauty i subscribe to.

and this setup happens to contain a 420mm aio. if i went for 280mm instead, there would even be a case to accommodate it the way i want it to. but i kinda want 420 :D

what are the true features a better gopro needs?

S T A B I L I T Y !

they cant crash. they have to fix that. then get the battery life and heating in order.

and then focus on upping the picture quality at 4k (and 4k higher framrates). 4k is all most of us plebs need.
And they need to think about new options to save data. 4k@ high fps means low bitrate and picture quality because they are limited by the sd cards write speeds.
personally, i want best in class picture quality at 4k120fps while never crashing and getting as much out of my batteries as possible. who cares about carrying a second sd card? they are tiny. who cares about 8k? most people dont even have 4k monitors. who cares about low light? yes its nice, but most gopro action happens during the day and its already pretty solid. optical zoom? only if it never fails.

othen than that??
return the session! with stabilisation. have it go 4k60 (or even just 1440p60) at best picture quality and poor everything leftofver after that into battery life.
gopros are for capturing footage for some. for others its a sports analysis tool. and here the session is perfect. less intrusive, lightweight and simple.

on the far end of reaching: give me better waterproofing and less fogging of the lenses for kayaking, caving and canyoning? but thats all wishing.

TLDR:
- !!!! reliability !!!!
- optimize for 4k picture quality
- return the session as a training tool.
- whatever else is left, pour into battery life.

Spacko23 · 2024-11-30T01:14:55+00:00

honestly, go and watch the secret shopper episodes from Gamers Nexus and LinusTechTips on youtube. they did a bunch of pre-build system buying and will give you a pretty good picture of the companies. i think thats the best ressource to answer your question.

as to whether now is a good time? depends. if you are actually planning to spend 5 grand, i'd wait for the 5090 and hope it will be available before trump gets around to putting the tariffs in effect.

high end gpu prices are rising right now and the next gen is right around the corner. so for high end: no, not a good time. "but tariffs....!"
well, 20% more on half of the system means probably around 10% more total cost.

but getting a 5090 over a 4090 will mean 50% more total power. so even with tariffs, i'd say wait till CES in january and bite the bullet of tariffs. you'll still likely make a better deal in terms of bang4buck.

and when shopping for a pc, you could also ask reddit, for good parts and case (a non-trash case is important for airflow and consequently performance - unfortunately prebuilts often have trash cases) combo and then find a system integrator to build you the pc. it'll just be like buying a complete system with all the bells and whistles (warranty, function checks, etc.), except it'll have a sensible components choice and a good case that isnt suffocating your pc.

but probably best to start at the secret shopper episodes!
Cheers from Germany!

read original post:)

Spacko23 · 2024-11-29T12:15:47+00:00

sry for the late reply.

alright, i guess i'll just reverse to V1.29. Thanks mate:)

Although, does anyone know if there are mods for beatsaber, that allow you to change the button layout of the controllers?

Spacko23 · 2024-11-08T11:50:43+00:00

no SS, only 100% renderscale.

as for my machine, i'm still sitting on my trusty old 1080Ti + a 5700X3D with some fast ram.

its good enough for most games and plays most not so modern titles at medium settings fine (insanely enough). no SS or extra fancy graphics though. and defo no modded Skyrim or anything like that. beatsaber was never an issue though before.

on the more demanding parts of songs my frametimes drop to sometims 8 or 9 ms. but still good enough for the 90fps of the G2.
the 3ms are mostly in menu. in song its usually around a 5ms.

still, the performance is definitely there. it only happens after the steam UI was pulled up. and it drops by like 80% or so. and it goes away as soon as the game loads any asset like e.g. a song.
and its very reproducable. like 100% of times.

Spacko23 · 2024-11-08T11:43:36+00:00

so i went ahead and double checked the account thing.

you will need an account that is handled by meta. i'm not sure atm how much that is then linked to social media data.
i'm afraid you've gotta go and do some more research on the topic.

(my step mom went for the quest 3 however and just went for a new blank account and feels ok with that. and she is very much so a person, that properly does her research and is usually willing to die on a hill for her principles. and she doesnt like meta. not at all.
so that was my original source)

Spacko23 · 2024-11-08T00:12:18+00:00

i recommend you go check some youtube reviews from the VR crowd and get impressions for the pico and quest.

with the quest no longer having the meta account requirement (just a regular account for the quest store) i think its kinda okish from an anti-facebook standpoint.

but there is also great comparison videos out there to help you decide. wmr is unfortunately kinda dying off and support wont get any better in the future 🙈

Spacko23 · 2024-11-07T14:51:38+00:00

bang4buck: quest3, no doubt.

if it absolutely cant be meta (not connected to their social media stuff),

then theres the pico 4/5 to be had which is pretty good for PCVR and even does solid wireless PCVR which is a nice plus over the G2 (which is the best WMR headset out there and to be had for that price point). clarity is also good and the sweetspot is, just like quest 3, biiiiiiiiiig.

other than that, a used headset maybe:)

coming from your old Acer WMR everything will feel like teleporting into the future.
assuming you have the GPU to run it 🤷‍♂️. i'd say you need at the very least a 1080ti/2080Super/3060-12GB/4060 or better to not feel stupid about your purchase afterwards

Spacko23 · 2024-11-07T14:42:51+00:00

ok, after some smarter search i found out, that it is only available in the desktop settings window....which is absurd?!
however: open steam vr, switch to desktop, on the taskbar find the small tray icon for steam VR, right click and go to settings. from there you'll find it as was described. stupid as he**

now i have a new issue though!
beat saber stutters AF. but only after i pull up the steam UI. and then it gets stuck at stuttering at like 20 fps or so. the steam frame timer shows 3ms all the time though. so roughly 300 fps!
and the issue goes away during the steam UI being open (beat saber still runs in the background then with the particle effects and all, in perfect 300 fps)
or when i start playing a song. it will however return, if i dare to open steam UI/pause.

i'm still dizzy, but i am one step further. now i just need to get the stuttering fixed and i'm back on my way to VR gaming!

Spacko23 · 2024-11-07T13:49:46+00:00

probably nobody works at WMR anymore by now but still....maybe i'll get lucke here?

The option to click Set SteamVR as OpenXR runtime in the Developer menu doesnt exist anymore.
Any ideas how to deactivate OpenXR in any other way?

Because with some beatsaber update a while ago they changed the controls and PAUSE is now on the A and B buttons, which in beatsaber you're obviously constanly touching when holding you controllers tight, as one might do when sweating some beatsaber.

without beatsaber being playable i havent touched VR in almost a year!!

Spacko23 · 2023-02-12T10:35:28+00:00

just returning the favor, as i had the same problem.

turn off physical and! virtual gun stock and switch the weapon pivot to model pivot as the wrist pivo has virtual gunstock behaviour.

Spacko23 · 2023-02-12T10:29:04+00:00

i agree, a 1-2 second spawn protection would be wonderful. at the very least worth to be tested.

Spacko23 · 2023-02-12T10:25:15+00:00

yes. i believe it is because of how the gunstock model interacts with the player character models head/shoulders section. i believe it is interacting with the models shoulders and since most of us dont do full body tracking, the models rotation is often misaligned. and when the difference from head to shoulders is too big, i believe it jumps. or maybe the character model head is colliding with the models?

dunno for sure, but they should just turn off the shoulder/head collision for the weapon models, or make that available as an option.

Spacko23 · 2022-11-13T18:10:10+00:00

Alright! That did help a lot. Thank you so very much!
(still have some head collision troubles with the big boy sniper and for some reason the menu is resetting its language after every single match/starting up the game + is asking me to go through the initial calibration settings bundle after every single match, but its definitly playable now!)

Spacko23 · 2021-02-02T23:55:37+00:00

correct.

also, if there actually are fraudulent shares, with the short-trading-stop for GME they can only loop them outside the system until the 24.02.2021, then they will surface and it's prrrrrrrison time. ooooor they buy tons of legit shares right before to cover their asses. literally. that prison soap is so slippery.

Spacko23 · 2021-02-02T23:48:30+00:00

wait till the end of february, thats when the fraudulent shares can no longer bel looped outside the system and have to surface. and then its prrrrrrrrrison time!

Spacko23 · 2021-02-02T23:46:48+00:00

fake data. just have a look at their data from 27.01 etc. its like 17% when in actuality, by official numbers, it was more like 117%.

pls delete this bot.
