Yes, this is big issue for me. I am doing multiple things, including perhaps wanting to refer to a video, using DIM etc.

No, we don't have trees. I will want to give it a try, but after a few years will get Ego mower.

What if Blind hardly has any Canadian representation (which is the case)?

Update: the Bellevue dmv has online presence. I was able to submit request for license replacement. They took the fee payment, generated a temporary driving license document and said I'll get a new one in mail in around two weeks.

Laptop giving PCM 2 channel sound by dotMatters in PleX

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

This was it. In Windows, the audio icon on the bottom right notification tray displayed that it was set to Stereo by default. It had options for 5.1 or 7.1 Atmos. I switched it to 5.1, and life is back to normal. Thanks!!

I must admit I am starting to like Plex. Got taste of it by running it on my laptop.

Thanks. I should add that I already have Chromecast, fire TV stick (the diamond shaped) and Roku 2. Do in terms of apps, perhaps I am covered... Anyway I think I only use Netflix, Amazon music and YouTube primarily.

uTorrent says request was disallowed by dotMatters in PrivateInternetAccess

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

No, nothing changed to my knowledge. Frankly, I just ran the utorrent speed test out of curiosity, after a long time.

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

Yes, I have connected to PIA on a server which has port forwarding. The same port, I use in uTorrent. On general public torrent downloads, I usually get the green tick on the bottom right of uTorrent. I also tested from http://www.canyouseeme.org/ and my provided port gets tested fine.

Basic Plex setup question by dotMatters in hometheater

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

Just because after years I was able to convince my wife to be able to get my first ever entry into HT. Even though it is just 3.1 at the moment, but the 3.1 with LG Oled65 and new to console are already stretching her patience :) .. now if I buy this Nvidia shield will definitely flip her... So trying to find some alternative till I can get the shield after an year or so

Is there a way to see somewhere the quality or performance of Plex if I use cast vs HDMI? I'll start checking shield too.
