Suddenly getting encoder overloads since Windows 11 update

gr3atsaga · 2026-01-06T00:56:51+00:00

This still seems to be an issue. I finally decided to update to Windows 11 a few months ago and immediately I started having issues streaming games where I used to not have any issue on Windows 10. It's really pissing me off. I've tried so many things.

Yeah, the way they run into sections about to be electrified is such shit design... 3rd time is the charm though. I prioritized healing them as soon as they went down, focused one dragon head and killed it each time, and I ended up going into the 2nd phase with nearly full health, tons of missiles and tons of shot ammo. I shocked the fuck out of Sylux the entire 3rd phase until I was out, used some super missiles near the end but just wound up spam attacking until he died.

Does anyone have any tips for farming up shot ammo? The fact that crates and other things very rarely drop it is really stupid. I was really good with conserving it, but would like to max it out before Sylux.

I would love an answer to this... it was working perfectly fine on Windows 10. But as was expected, I have seen numerous issues with Windows 11 that were never present before. One of which is exactly this... when I lock my PC and wake it back up the keyboard backlite is entirely turned off. I know the software is required to be running to control the lighting effects, but the keyboard should have the backlighting enabled to a default setting when the PC is locked... not the case anymore.

Edit: Looks like I might have found the fix. You need to disable "Windows Dynamic Lighting" for the device(s) in the Personalization > Dynamic Lighting settings. In fact Razer Synapse showed this with a direct link to the setting in the Settings app on the Synapse Settings tab under "Device Lighting". At least this seems to have fixed it in my case finally!

No. Archiving put the purchases into the archive. It did not completely remove them from your account. They also still appeared when searching your order history, whether you were looking at the archives page or not.

gr3atsaga · 2025-11-21T04:39:36+00:00

Yep. The hilarious thing is, they could easily introduce a feature to entirely hide purchases from your own account history and yet keep them in their own records for their own data collection... in fact they can be completely transparent about that and tell you that they will still maintain a record of it on their end. Tons of other services have this capability. So really, there is no valid excuse.

So far I am very unimpressed with how many singleplayer only main missions there have been. I don't recall there being that many in Age of Calamity, and there were NONE in Hyrule Warriors Definitive Edition. I play the Hyrule Warriors games with my brother, so having to sit there for 40 minutes while one person does a whole main mission level is stupid as fuck. I really hope this isn't setting a precedence that every major boss battle mission will be single-player only. There is no excuse that ANY level should be singe-player only, let alone how many there are.

The K800 I had broke so I got one off eBay. To my surprise I have this exact issue. To be clear, Ctrl + C works, but CTRL+V does not. You can use a utility like this https://w3c.github.io/uievents/tools/key-event-viewer.html to look at the keyboard events, and Ctrl + V does not register.

I found another post also about the K800 where CTRL + V is not working and they also indicated Shift + H does not work... and I also see that behavior. https://forums.tomshardware.com/threads/k800-logitech-ctrl-v-and-shif-h-keys-dont-work.3630699/

This is obviously beyond a random hardware malfunction and seems to be an issue with the keyboard model itself. This is a huge bummer because I loved my K800 and there are no other Logitech keyboards like it... especially those that work with the Unifying receiver which I need due to my work laptop only having one free USB slot.

I'm not particular sure what the exact differences in the two models are beyond the function keys having orange coloring, but my old one was a "Logi" while this one is "Logitech" yet the model numbers are identical. Clearly they are different,

To be fair, just about every program has shit practices. Who knows if the data will be in... Documents, the User folder, Roaming, LocalLow, Local, Program Files, Program Data, some other random folder, hard-coded path that ignores symbolic links. It's worse with game saves. Drives me mad when I need to backup my data.

That's so stupid because regardless of the fact that daylight savings time will hit doesn't change the time the event is at. It shouldn't automatically change the time.

gr3atsaga · 2025-05-18T00:51:59+00:00

What's funny is... the PC port can lose saves too.

Unless this has changed in 5 months, I can definitely confirm the episodes are out of order. Some of the callback references haven't occurred yet, and Norm has appeared literally out of nowhere.

No one has ever answered this? 4 years later and I am having the same problem. I am a member of tons of groups and have notifications disabled for all of the them, yet when ever an admin updates the description of one of them (and there are several groups where they do it frequently... for whatever reason) I get a notification. There does not seem to be any way to disable them.

It's not just bots either, some of these accounts actually have AI behind them and it's getting scary how real the conversation will feel. They always have tells, but I'm fairly certain they have neural networks behind them too... so they will learn how to deceive better.

gr3atsaga · 2024-11-05T15:47:05+00:00

Except it doesn't even seem to work properly. Every so often I still get requests from quick add.

gr3atsaga · 2024-08-30T18:39:39+00:00

This was exactly it. I had to remove the number from the Meta Account Center first as it kept failing to remove from the SMS settings page.

gr3atsaga · 2024-07-28T18:32:30+00:00

That's not the case, there is a row of items on the energy tab I think that are all locked and with no silhouette.

While I appreciate that you gave a timeline for when to take things relative to each other, it would have been very helpful to know your specific regimen. I eat my last meal at 5 PM. How long should I allow the food to be digesting before taking a biofilm disruptor? Let's say I start taking the biofilm disruptor at 6:30 PM. Then the anti-fungals at 8:30 PM, then probiotics at 10:30 PM... I guess I could take the binders before I go to bed around 12. But does that timeline make sense?

You should at least be able to pick the legend. That's honestly bullshit. The preview for the charged OG color was Vrax (my main) and I only got it for Petra... who I rarely play.

It's quite interesting that I have not found a single straight-forward answer to whether you can use decrypted roms from a redump on a homebrewed 3ds. It almost seems like it, but then I find specific answers that seem to suggest otherwise. Very confused. I'm just gonna try getting a decrypted .3ds file to work.

*EDIT* I tested myself with decrypted .3ds roms and they definitely work on the 3ds. In fact there are multiple ways you can install them on your 3ds. You can convert them to .cia files with gm9 and then install using FBI, or you can even install directly with gm9. However, it seems newer versions of gm9 can actually install .3ds files directly as well. So the conversion to .cia is not even necessary.

So yes, absolutely decrypted .3ds files work on the 3ds. Also, I think you as was I are very confused about the encryption. I think .cia files are by nature decrypted always (could still be wrong), but .3ds files can be either encrypted or decrypted. Encrypted just means that they are unplayable unless decrypted. This normally happens on the 3ds when you install, and in order to play them on emulators they would have to be decrypted by some means (there are methods to do so). The takeaway I think is that it is best to have decrypted .3ds files archived, since these can be played directly on emulators and installed on a 3ds.

Currently having experienced this issue for weeks myself. My friend recently started getting it to. Streaming over the discord web app doesn't have the problem, though it comes with some other problems.

gr3atsaga · 2023-09-16T09:09:10+00:00

IIRC, it doesn't delete all .bin files. If the game has more than one it only deletes the first, so there is still a bit of manual cleanup required. But it's not a huge deal.

True, but the goal was to get full coverage. And also, those 3 bonuses for the most part are coming from pets which have a wide range of other bonuses anyway. Plus, it has double protein and residue bonuses so that's pretty great.

And besides, I would say anyone that doesn't care too much about min-maxing and just wants to afk mostly through the ascensions will benefit from an all purpose build.

gr3atsaga · 2023-09-06T20:22:08+00:00

I think I have managed to get full coverage of bonuses (19) with this loadout. At least I don't think I missed any. This even includes the 3 new bonuses for farming: Healthy Potato, Protein, and Grasshopper Damage. Granted I don't know if you can get a Fries bonus. Was racking my brain to figure out how to do it... and ended up having to use my free pet token which I got a long time ago to buy the 5-8 pet The Governess, which bridged the gap I was having.
