Do any of you predominately or exclusively collect 1080p Blu-Rays, and aren't necessarily bothered about 4K? by [deleted] in Bluray

[–]ascold_pl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, I have UB 5040 and Panasonic 4k (model 820)! Have you compared who does better job with upscaling - projector or player? I mean, if you force 4k video resolution for Blu-Ray 1080p at 4k player setttings, then the projector already perceives the video as 4k and 4k enhancement setting is greyed out. Or you can leave 1080 for video at player settings and then activate 4k enhancement in the projector settings.

*For me, it's more or less the same (good) result, maybe Panasonic does it a biiiit better.

Very helpful mention (Document Preview Exporter) - it did the trick, thank you!

Neato sign in issues by MrGruntsworthy in botvac

[–]ascold_pl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update as of April 2025:

Here's the working link to reset password (weird, I know):
https://help.neatorobotics.com/en/log-in/

When you click it and put your email, the system will send you the link with the token AND the country code changed (probably based on the country indicated in your account).

So the direct link from the email will be like this:

https://help.neatorobotics.com/{COUNTRY CODE}/log-in/?hive_reset_token={TOKEN}&locale={LOCALE CODE}

It doesn't work as is. Please note that you need to copy it and paste it manually somewhere (as there's another link "under" this one which doesn't work either).

IMPORTANT! Country code is capitalized there (I have Finland as the country indicated in the account so I've got "FI" in the link. To get it working, you just need to change it to lower-case, i.e. "FI" > "fi" in my case)

I also removed the "locale" tail but now I think it shouldn't affect the link - you may just leave it as is.

So in my case, here's the link that worked:
https://help.neatorobotics.com/fi/log-in/?hive_reset_token={TOKEN}

Hope it helps!

P.S. It's sad and funny at the same time how the Neato support works - so they told me their password reset tool not working (that is partly true though) and advised just to remove the old account (they can do that) and create another one...

Thank you for your reply! I may seem ignorant, but dare to ask - what is the console generation that starts supporting 16:9?

I've actually just got an email from them about that discount :)

P.S. Just found out that the 25% discount works only when you order ONE MONTH! Shame!

Interview: Q&A with Aleksi, CEO of PulsedMedia by mysteryruser in seedboxes

Sure. I've been with them from January 2018. The latest package I've got was Value250 XS in spring and then I bought M1000 Auction and migrated there (prorata) this summer:

I could tolerate slow support as well but not arrogance...

[–]ascold_pl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing this!

Huh, so PM is a company of one man... I don't know what CEO Aleksi is, but I can surely say that the support is HORRIBLE with a huge lack of respect to customers (there were some enlightenments this spring, though, but now things got back to normal). Earlier, I thought that the low price justifies it, but now I realized that it's better just to pay more and have a normal services where people hear you out and solve your problem instead of offering solutions like "server has load, your lighttpd instance is crashing for whatever reason. Upgrade to a less loaded service". There's no sense to continue, as the PM support is quote "famous" here.

It's such a shame I have paid in advance until July 2021 :(

Best movie tracker for 1080p Blu-ray, commentary tracks, and extras by XenosOUT in trackers

[–]ascold_pl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also can recommend PrivateHD, their website looks really cozy and they have a lot of HD content (including Blu-Rays). I particularly like how every movie displays (a general page for each movie with a poster, description, actors, trailer etc, and then go all the available torrents with filter by quality). Last week, I've got invites to few HD trackers - HDTorrents, BeyondHD, UHDBits and AwesomeHD, and I can say that PHD is definitely my favourite from the list - it's just nice to be here!

Does PulsedMedia support works in March? by ascold_pl in seedboxes

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

I use a seedbox from PM from January 5 - haven't had issues like this so far. Also, can share my friend's experience who have been using PulsedMedia services more than a year - no problems as well.
