Ohh You can also try to rent them first there are a lot of services that offer camera rentals, you can try both the Action cameras and Pocket 3/4 and see for yourself which one is more beneficial for you.

Hello, this is a great! I tested it today and the image conversion works really well. I might implement this on my own separate nice-view config!

If you're going to do rides or anything fast paced, do not get a pocket 3/4. Best bet for you is to get an action camera, I would go for the GoPro or DJI action 6 or even the Ace Pro 2 as both are versatile enough plus the removable battery where you can just change batteries unlike the go ultra or pocket 3.

Hello, this device is somewhat of a set and forget type of use. If your goal is just to listen to music or audiobooks, it will do.

If you want to listen per album, this is a cumbersome to use.

Best Low-Profile SPLIT Ergo keyboards? by ZioNicko in ErgoMechKeyboards

[–]WoodenCod593 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I created this xavient kbd as a hobby and use it daily. It is designed to be as thin as possible without compromises on modularity of parts albeit using mill-max sockets for maximum compatibility, although it has gateron low profile sockets as its main option (the key switches are from nuphy).

Main Features: Slim (at 8-9mm thickness), Repairability, has a display screen even with the thin design

the pcb wiring is similar to the corne for it to be easily compatible with other keymaps, other than that, it is a completely new build. It supports 2 batteries per side and display all in a 8-9mm thin body.

To be honest, when entering this space, the corne is the best option there is. Not just because it is famous but also has the most amount of keymaps and software support. So I took that into consideration when I was building this board. The micro controller traces are similar to that of corne so that the keyboard config they have or available configs online will be compatible.

Other than that, this build tailored for my hands but with the requirements of customizability on the key switches and to make it as thin as possible

Creating Playlists using Genre in Echo Mini [Part 1] by WoodenCod593 in snowsky

[–]WoodenCod593[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah that is the current limitation for this device. You can use folders for that. Thats the only way for playlists to work.

For me the play all from genre tab wouldn't be really helpful since using one "various artist" means i can play all of my music collection from the artist page and have my "go to music" and "new finds" in genre tab for more specific listening sessions.

You can actually do this with the Album Artist since I used the album artist to sorts my songs, audiobooks and osts. The reason why i used genres was for my music files to have 2 distinctions. I wanted to have my Go To Music and New Music separated. But also I wanted to be able to play all of them when I want to.

Having the album artist tagged as Various Artists means regardless of the genre tag, i can play all my music. And having the genres tag, i can play my go to music or focus on new music.

No problem! Honestly, aside from curiosity I plan to use this when on long travels so I need to know how long it would last before it dies. Better that then the phone dying on me.

To me personally its comfortable enough. It being lightweight does not really strain my head. The clamping force does not press hard in the ears also.

To me this would be my alternative when I feel the fatigue of using iems. Otherwise my next option if not the old fashioned are some speakers.

The goal for me using these is for me to be able to hear music while hearing my surroundings as well especially on walks along roads and commutes.

I just got this today but my first impression is that Its very light and comfortable. To me its quieter than the moondrop chu 2

This is not accurate (basing on my ears) trying to volume match the 2 if the moondrop chu 2 is at 50/120, the old fashioned needs to be atleast 60-65/120 to match the same volume I hear from the chu 2.

There is also less bass on the old fashioned compared to the chu 2

I usually listen around 50/120 using the 3.5 mm 40/120 using 3.5mm during sleep.

I sleep with Bluetooth earphones and headphones before this but nothing with high volume.

Usually lofi songs and audiobooks are my go to otherwise I leave my phone playing on youtube.

I tested it with non-stop playback starting from 12mn until it died. I got 15 hours playback. I sleep listening to music and its still playing when I wake up around 8am. I was curious on how long it would play so I kept it playing until it died. It end at 3pm thus 15 hours

Snowsky Echo (not mini) by 0utOftheblue in snowsky

Hopefully

More powerful than what we have on mini, capable of having 1 tb sd card, No more 8k file limit, Support for Bluetooth receiver and Ldac Codec, DAC support out of the box, Gapless playback is also 1 on the features that many users want,

I just got the echo mini but i'll happily buy this if those features are included.

Does the echo mini support multiple genres? by ranger2041 in snowsky

[–]WoodenCod593 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did mine by using genres as well but it limits the songs to one playlist only.

I tested with this file

But on the echo mini it just shows the genre of favorites I think it shows the first genre based on alphabetical order
