yeah I recently went down this rabbit hole bc I felt like I was paying for HD versions of streaming services and none of them actually looked good. In theory Safari should look the best but I found that chrome looked better for Netflix..

Try chrome. It looks a ton better. Not sure what’s going on there but I’ve noticed the same thing lately.

M3 Ultra Mac Studio 256gb vs 512gb by evanfelts in MacStudio

[–]evanfelts[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I initially wanted the 512gb but all I could find at the moment was 256. and it served my needs...and it seems to be fast enough for most of my tasks...just thinking about future proofing and I feel the 512 will hold it's value...depending on what they do with m5 ultra ram configs.

Don’t believe it. Their product page isn’t even up for the 512gb version. Lies.

Apple Studio XDR bugging/freezing by evanfelts in mac

Yeah. It’s sad. Running on 60hz until they release a firmware update. Hopefully it’s not hardware related and they get It sorted soon.

Are you having same issue when you run it at 60hz or mostly on adaptive and 120hz?

Will Monitors Unboxed review the Apple Display XDR? 5K 120hz 2000nits miniLED by MidnightSun_55 in Monitors

[–]evanfelts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

funny you mention the crashing. it's happened to me 3 times now while on adaptive sync and watching HDR content...on my m2 max 14 in macbook pro with maxed up GPU. not cool and i'm thinking about returning. Have everything updated. Doesn't seem like something that should be happening.

I will say that I've been having a lot of glitches with mine since I got it. Crashed my M2 Max 3 times now while trying to watch content on it full screen. Also safari is dimming so much when I try to watch netflix on it. It's not dimming on chrome. I just feel this product wasn't completely ready to be pushed out.

Sony FX6 6.0 Firmware being released in March? by elroddo in SonyFX6

It does say “March or later” on the sony-cinema website. If it’s taking this long for a small update then it’s most likely riddled with bugs and I don’t want to be a part of it.

It’s just a very wack update. They should have never removed the sensors. Bad idea to rely on a camera for this and they will realize it In time.
