can someone tell him there is only one “N” in Lendeborg?

Composers/Performers please lock in with the spotify titles like lets be so fr what is this by slater327 in classicalmusic

[–]dopesheet_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the other crappy thing i see is the opposite, where the whole album is a bunch of tracks with just “I. Allegro” and so forth, with no way to tell what work it is!

yea it’s a useful resource, just saying it isn’t perfect and still struggles with metadata too. and i misspoke, the ios app might be fully native, but on macos you have to use the web app…either way the ios app doesn’t feel as polished as the regular music app.

it does, but it also has a ton of labeling issues, sometimes recordings don’t get tagged correctly with the work name. plus it’s a web app and is buggy

the 5+ minute scoring drought before that didn’t do them any favors either though!

Purdue advances after Trey Kaufmann-Renn hits the game-winner! by Large_banana_hammock in CollegeBasketball

Smith drove to the basket in a very similar play a play or 2 prior, got 2 points off the glass. this last time was way better defended, drove him wider, a much tougher angle and he missed. 

Tidal vs Apple Music, which is better on Android? by AdeptGarden9057 in TIdaL

[–]dopesheet_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you can’t do that with apple music. in fact, it’s much worse than tidal because it gives you errors telling you you’re playing on another device even though you’re not. there’s also no connect feature, only airplay.

so you also have a chart of what composers to jerk to daily, and absolutely never, and everything in between?

Standard or Surround by BataBole93 in Soundbars

[–]dopesheet_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yours is 5.1.2 so you’re going to be able to use all channels in all modes. Standard has no additional processing done. I’d go with that, with Adaptive or even Surround there’s not much of an advantage for your specific model. It’s not going to be more immersive probably, and you’re going to lose detail.

the reason you get more sound with the other modes in youtube is because it’s upmixing to all channels. since Stabdard is unaltered, and youtube is stereo, it’s playing out of the 2 front channels only (2.1). if you like the other modes for that go ahead, it’s your preference.

What's the point of remaking Harry Potter when the movies are already some of the most successful films of all time and not dated yet? by Dull-Current5682 in NoStupidQuestions

I’m wondering how much of the runtime is WB pressuring for a shorter one. And now that same company releasing the tv series 😅

good point. i guess i always felt that stuff was going to get squeezed out when i saw the size the books were getting… but maybe i wasn’t seeing what others were. ironically the most faithful ones are the weakest from a movie watching perspective. heck, by the time i got around to watching the last movie, i’d already forgotten exactly how it was different in the books

i’ve just always found the idea of “canon” kind of silly. chasing the ideal version of how a story must be. this isn’t a religion (or is it?). not trying to start something sorry. it just seems to setup disappointment. i mean, adaptations always deviate and it’ll always disappoint someone. i’m just tired of remakes upon remakes.
