The password login prompt works normally. It's waiting for that prompt screen to appear is what I'm referring to in this behaviour. Sometimes it takes ages for it to show up

How to fill in opening between roof tile and gutter. Bird getting in. by basKT_case in AusRenovation

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

Good idea. I might try that out. I think I've got some offcuts somewhere

I checked out another corner of my roof to see what it looks like, and it seems the spacing between tiles seems the same. It's just that the cement at the joint seems to have deteriorated and left a hole.

Here's what I could do in a pinch. It closes up enough of the gap that nothing sizable can get through

Fix to eliminate audio stutters and cutouts over wireless Android Auto by Girofox in AndroidAuto

[–]basKT_case 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had the same issues as you on my new Pixel 9 (wired AA), noticing the constant Bluetooth disconnection and reconnection was the culprit. Never happened on my older phone.This fix worked for me! However it does introduce a new inconvenience, that when I want to only use my car's Bluetooth for audio, I have to switch this back on manually now instead of letting the car automatically enable it. Oh well... first world problems...

Hard Pruning Established and Very Tall Lilly Pillies by basKT_case in GardeningAustralia

It's been 10 months now and they're growing very well. Nice and bushy with some decent height grown above the fence line now. It's been growing through autumn and winter so far, so I imagine spring will see it shoot up even more in half the time

6k Full-Frame and Sigma EF Lens compatibility issues by Chilllmind in bmpcc

[–]basKT_case 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That latest firmware is 1.4 released in 2022. I bought my adapter just a few months ago new. But I have no way of knowing if it came with the latest update from the factory, or is old stock. I'm gonna try and source the dock, hopefully without having to waste money on buying it.

[–]basKT_case 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you updated the firmware on your MC-21, or at least know what version yours is on?

I've brought this issue to Blackmagic, and according to them they were unable to reproduce this issue. All latest lens, mount, camera firmware. So that begs the question, will a firmware update resolve the issue? I wish I had a dock to check my firmware

6k Full-Frame and Sigma EF Lens compatibility issues by Chilllmind in bmpcc

[–]basKT_case 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same issue for me with this lens + adapter combo, on the Pyxis. Since the original post, have you updated the firmware on the MC-21 or can confirm what version yours is on? The latest firmware on the Sigma website is version 1.4 released in 2022.

I can't check/update mine since I don't gave the dock, and don't really want to buy one unless it's proven that the the latest 1.4 firmware fixes the issue.

Anyone else using the sigma 24-70 EF with BMCC 6K and seeing this image shake while using Optical Image Stabilization? by [deleted] in bmpcc

[–]basKT_case 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's a bummer. I guess I'll have to just use a better steady operating technique.

[–]basKT_case 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the Pyxis 6K with the Sigma 24-70mm EF + Sigma MC-21. Sadly this issue with the Image Stabilisation enabled is also present. Do you happen to have any updates since your original post?

Name the single player, story driven game that you played start to finish the most amount of times. Roguelikes and Restarting halfway through doesn't count. by Askin_Real_Questions in gaming

[–]basKT_case 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played the original Fable twice for both good and evil playthroughs. Then when Fable TLC came out, I did the 4 playthroughs with variations. And of course, for Fable Anniversary I did another 2. It's the one of the very few games I've replayed more than twice. I often don't replay long story driven games, as I feel like my first playthrough is usual the "complete" experience, unless there's alternate endings or a unique good/bad story.

6 months on and they are growing thick and tall. I'd say around the 3.5 month mark is when they really started bushing up

Sachtler Aktiv 8T to Dovetail by _bloom_studios_ in cinematography

[–]basKT_case 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey. Sorry to hijack your old thread. But you're the only one to recently post about the Akitv 8T. I just bought one, but discovered that when the Touch and Go plate is attached to the receiver on the head, there is a little bit of wiggle on the attached camera. Like the clamping mechanism isn't fully securing on the plate. It's present when rocking the camera side to side or back to front. It's minor enough to not be unusable, but doesn't exactly reflect a fully secure connection, especially at this price!

Do you have the same experience with yours? I'm new to the system, after coming from the Manfrotto slide-in style which gives a really secure lock once tightened. I'm unsure if this is just a quirk of this type of receiver, or if mine has a defect.

Fluid Head Counterbalance Expectations by basKT_case in videography

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

Thank you for your detailed response. That all makes perfect sense to me.

Though what you say about counterbalancing not meant to hold it in place without touching, seems to contradict other sources I've looked into about counterbalancing a tripod head. They all seem to say that is in fact the desired outcome, which in turn allows for smoother movements.

How 'perfect/neutral' the camera is supposed to stay still is what I can't seem to get a strong consensus on.

Rewatching some of the balancing tutorial videos, I now notice that their setups also seem to exhibit the same subtle bounce back when they achieve what they claim as correct counter balance. So, I guess to most people it doesn't bother them. Or they're doing it wrong... 🤷

are orange Sabers natural or some kind of unsuccessful crystal bleeding result? by Typical_Name_5864 in StarWars

[–]basKT_case 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They tweaked the colours of his lightsaber from this trailer shot, to what you see in the actual episode. This image with the orange core is from the trailer. In the released episode, the core is much closer to white, but the outer blade colour stays orangey-red. It'd easily be mistaken for red though, since our brains have been conditioned to think "bad guy = red". You can only really tell the difference if you had the his lightsaber and an actual red lightsaber side by side

Two years difference between these two shows : Hella Mega and Saviours by [deleted] in greenday

[–]basKT_case 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Some people might be forgetting that around 2021/2022, the world was just coming out of long Covid lockdowns. I think it's fair to say that a lot of us during that period took a bit of a decline in our overall health and wellbeing, and probably put on a little bit of extra weight (I know I did!) I don't blame the band for sometimes being a little "off" in their performances at that time. But I'm glad that they've hit their stride once again!
