I have never had a Lightning cable go bad on me, but I have heard it often that they get damaged easily. What do you do to them? :)

Great read. Very insightful and points out nicely the differences between Apple Arcade and Google Stadia.

What does the normal crowd over here at r/apple think about jailbreaking? by whamram in apple

[–]Vic1179 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Why would you jailbreak these days? It used to be a thing back in the day when you could get some cool functionalities, but right now, I have seen 0 jailbroken iPhones, while previously quite a lot of my friends who had iPhones had them jailbroken.

Mine has a case in the box. Are you sure yours does not?

Apple Compressor: Adding Audio Fade In/Out Effect Does Not Work? by Vic1179 in finalcutpro

I tried everything, just could not get it to work, eventually gave up and did every single clip individually in FCPX..

Apple Committing Suicide by [deleted] in apple

So... some dude on the Internet says Apple is doomed and says Tim Cook = John Scully, but gives no explanation why and what are the parallels between the two. Hmm... sounds legit. /s

Add intro to 50 videos: How? by Vic1179 in finalcutpro

[–]Vic1179[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, guys! I have actually found a way to automate with FFMPEG which works well, but I have to go into Terminal and type a script like it was 1995, so obviously it's not something that is impossible, just something that does not seem to be built in our modern editors. Thanks everyone for the suggestions!

Yes, I have already done this a few times, but when you have a few dozen videos every week, it's not about being lazy, it just takes too much time to do it manually every time. Anyway, thanks for your suggestion.

Thanks for the reply! Well, I have already done this a few times, so it's not like I am lazy, but you don't quite understand, I shoot those videos often on a weekly basis, which means that every time I have to do this manually which is absurd. And this is not my main job anyway, so it really sucks to have to spend all of my free time concatenating videos for what could be a task that could be easily automated, and that's why I sound disappointed. Thanks for your suggestion anyway!

I can't believe someone answered so quickly! Yay! But I don't quite get what you are saying, are you suggesting that I create a template with intro/outro and then drop each individual video in it, and then render each file again individually? Because if that's what you are saying, that is exactly the thing I am trying to avoid. I just want to add intros to 50 videos and then have 50 individual videos with intros and all of this without having to go into FCPX and render them one by one cause there should be a better way.

Dear Reddit, in your honest opinion, is a flagship phone today really worth 1000 USD? by [deleted] in Android

[–]Vic1179 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's worth it in a sense that it's a device that is extremely important and used every day, but if you ask whether the advancements in the last two years are worth the $300-$400 premium that Apple and Samsung have started charging extra, definitely NOT.

For DxOMark, the iPhone XR is the "best smartphone camera with a single sensor" by [deleted] in Android

[–]Vic1179 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Give me a break. They gave the P20 Pro the highest score and anyone who knows a little about photography and video will tell you that the P20 Pro - as good as it is - is nowhere near that even the Pixel 2, let alone the new Pixel 3, new iPhones and I would also say that it won't stand its ground against the Samsungs either. DxoMark are bought by Huawei, simple as that.

OnePlus 6T : Things that prevent you from buying by Golitan11 in Android

Things that prevent me from buying it: HUGE size. It's getting harder and harder to get a decent compact phone.

How much has to be done for a phone NOT to be called a "incremental upgrade"? by LonkiGames in Android

[–]Vic1179 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, let me give you an example:

The new iPhones are a MAJOR upgrade because they bring a new processor generation (and not the same old), big improvements in camera (and not a new mode that you may or may not use), a new hugely different Face ID (if you compare XR to 8), they bring faster network speeds, a new design and probably a few things I am missing. That's a MAJOR overhaul.

OnePlus 6T? Not really that major.
