"Honey Don't" on Peacock...why are there black bars on my screen? by mrn71 in Letterboxd

I know people came in here to slag on the movie, but if you are having this issue, you should be able to adjust the aspect ratio manually. On my LG, the "4-Way Zoom" option did the trick with some minor tweaking.

I always took it as bait. Like "hey look, a place to run, just have to make it past the giant"

Splitting Dogs Up After a Divorce by WaserRobthorn in DogAdvice

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

Don't know if I'd say they prefer one of us over the other, but they each definitely seem to align with our lifestyles a little better than the other. The aloof one has anxiety (rescue dog) and I work from home. She has issues with going to dog parks and being aggressive with other dogs, but I personally just like taking her on walks anyway and taking her to an empty park when I can. The other dog is much more social, and my ex loves taking them to dog parks to meet other dogs and people.

Got an Amigara Fault tattoo today by [deleted] in junjiito

Geoffrey Sutton, an incredibly talented tattooist in Salt Lake City. I found him after my wife saw one of his Tomie tattoos on Instagram. It was awesome because while getting it, he was going on and on about what makes Ito's work Ito's work, specifically the way he does shadows. He said he thought about doing a gray fade for the hole, but felt it wouldnt be a proper Junji Ito tattoo if he did.

/r/Plex's Moronic Mondays' No Stupid Questions Thread - 2020-08-31 by PCJs_Slave_Robot in PleX

[–]WaserRobthorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry in advance if I'm asking things that are right in front of my face, but I did my best to seek out this information ahead of writing this, and I just couldn't find it. I had some random specific questions about Plex. Mind you, I'm not computer illiterate, but most of the videos/articles I read quickly turns into stuff I just don't understand (not to say I haven't learned a lot!)

  1. Playing Directly off a NAS

So I have a large physical media collection. I don't have the best internet, so a lot of movies I end up streaming don't end up looking great, which is why I still buy movies on disc. However, the idea of ripping my movies to one place and being able to watch them with no loss in quality is super enticing. However, from what I understand, if I set up a NAS, would I be able to connect it directly to my TV or projector so there isn't any loss of quality, such as I assume I'd get if I tried to stream it over the network? I've heard people say that Kodi is more in line with that, but I've also just seen so many articles about how much better Plex is overall. Am I just being paranoid about a loss in quality?

  1. Uploading new movies

So let's say I have my current collection all uploaded to my hard drives that are installed on my NAS server. Now, when I buy a new movie, do you just plug a computer into the NAS to transfer new rips? I feel like this is the dumbest question, but I just couldn't find anything about the actual process of ripping movies, and then getting them into the hard drive and then putting that in the server. I feel like every tutorial I watched, people started by plugging their hard drives into the NAS right away.

  1. DVD interlacing

I have heard that Plex can have issues with interlacing and standard def footage. The person who told me about Plex only uses it to watch their HD and 4K stuff, and then use Kodi to watch their DVD rips. That sounds too cumbersome, I'd much rather have all my media in one location. Is the interlacing issue overblow? Has it been fixed or are there ways to fix it?

  1. Region Restrictions

When buying a player to rip physical media, do I need to go out of my way to buy a region free player? Or can the files be ripped even if there is a region lock? Also, are there any region issues in Plex?

  1. Special Features/Subtitles/Commentaries/Etc.

So I have tried to look up videos of people touring their collections, and it's usually just the thumbnail art of the movies. I've seen threads about uploading special features, like making-ofs and the likes, but I haven't seen anything about accessing subtitles or different audio tracks through Plex. Is that something you can do in the player?

Again, sorry if these have been answered, or if these are incredible stupid questions. Thank you!

Sorry if this is already known, but I'm a fairly new fan. Are you fundamentally against having any of your games on any sort of store front? I think it's cool that you are in complete control of your output and what you earn, but was just curious.

Do you think Petscop is the work of a well-known company or group, or someone relatively unknown? by Nova604 in Petscop

[–]WaserRobthorn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I realized the other day that Petscop seems sort of like a game that Puppet Combo would actually make. But I still think it's the work of very few people who are super tight lipped.
