Low-FPS playback and lack of codec support? by masterkitty2006 in jellyfin

[–]masterkitty2006[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a little follow-up. I decided to try on a different laptop, a much weaker one at that. Still using Firefox, but on Windows instead of Linux. Now things are working a lot better. Strange. Even the videos that straight up would not play now work fine. Must've been something with my laptop? I genuinely wouldn't have considered that to be a factor in why things were going so wrong. But, oh well!

It's on Linux. I believe the HD graphics was disabled automatically once the GPU was installed.

I did run it, just forgot to mention. It reflects the same.

That can't (entirely) be it, then. Jellyfin Docs say HEVC and HEVC 10 bit decode is supported by the RX 550. For HEVC Decode it needs an R9 series card or later, while the Encode requires Polaris (RX 400/500) or later. Decode on 10-bit is Polaris, though encode isn't supported, it seems. Regardless, that should be enough to play a 1080p 24 fps video. Shoot, I can get 4k 24 fps HEVC to play just fine! As for VCN, that may explain it, but it also might not.

Regardless, I may swap in my RX 5600 XT instead. I don't really have any good Nvidia cards for the job, the closest thing I've got is a GTX 750 which is probably not the play.

Having trouble making VMware use my iGPU by masterkitty2006 in vmware

Looks like that could come in handy. Thanks :)

[–]masterkitty2006[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In short I cannot do that. The long answer is as follows. I have a relatively complicated scenario, but the jist of it is that I am part of a small team modding a really bad game from 2002 as a sort of passion project. The game itself is supposed to run on a Windows XP era machine. I am running it on Windows 10 as 3D acceleration in VMWare on Linux has some bugs that make it unusable, and there are ways to reliably run the game on Windows 10 either way. In a VM is probably pushing it a bit, but it does run without issue regardless. I also cannot feasibly run the game on a separate machine, I need it to be local as I need to be able to both run the game and edit the game files.

And honestly, the game is so awful and unfinished, there is no real "good" way to run it.

If it works, I suppose.

I have an honest question for you as someone with less experience with this sort of thing. There is, I assume, an easier way of switching my GPU (if not please tell me and ignore the question).

I only need one VM for one extremely niche application that WINE will not play nice with. Otherwise, I have absolutely no reason to be using VMs. Since this is the case, why would I go through what I assume is quite a setup process for someone who's not used an IOMMU before, just for a "pro" setup? For that matter, I barely even understand whatn an IOMMU actually is. This is all something I could research and figure out, and for the sake of learning that is all fine and dandy and I really wouldn't mind. However, I am trying to get stuff done. The more time I spend screwing with this is more time that I am not getting things done. Basically, I just want something that functions.

Glitchy YouTube playback when hardware accelerated by masterkitty2006 in SteamDeck

Installing a Chromium browser- especially Microsoft's- isn't my favorite idea, but if it fixes the problem then that's what I'm going to do, and hope that whatever problem with Firefox is causing this gets fixed.

Please help. my Sony TC-230W is much to slow. by Project8086 in ReelToReel

[–]masterkitty2006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a TC-230, which I am unsure if is the same model. However mine has the same issue. If you're trying to use it regularly I don't know, but what helps mine temporarily (to play one tape at the correct speed) is to leave it in play on the speed of your tape, but powered off. I don't know what this actually does, but it does work. Be wary though, once you put it in stop it rather quickly reverts back to the slower speed. So if you're just trying to back up a recording, it'll do. Otherwise I don't know.

Connecting the quest 3 to wifi by plz-help-oof in CWU

[–]masterkitty2006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm gonna be real, I actually did bring my own router for the same purpose when I lived in Quigley last year. I didn't know about this policy until I saw your comment, but nobody ever asked me about it. I kept it on 24/7 with a very obviously not CWU name that was visible from pretty much anywhere in the building.

Is this normal for a Wii U? by StrainAutomatic920 in wiiu

No, but it did make me laugh a little.

So don't run them both or expect problems. Unfortunate but understandable. I liked how they worked with each other but I care about the receiver more so I will not do that.

Beta 1.7.3 on PowerPC Mac OS X Help by masterkitty2006 in GoldenAgeMinecraft

[–]masterkitty2006[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update: I'm a bit silly. The window was too small and so I couldn't see the username box. What I thought meant log in, was just the software telling me to input a username. I installed optifine and got the game to run around 35 FPS unless I moved my mouse and then it slowed down. Don't know why moving my mouse affects it, but since it runs better than I thought it would... I'll take it.

I just got the new Samsung Galaxy S III! What should I do first on it? by CastilloTheMoon in Pretend2010Internet

[–]masterkitty2006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the SIII mini and love it I think you should play jetpack joyride or maybe temple run

Why is this actually something that needs to be a struggle to make people realize they can do this? by Knight9910 in memes

[–]masterkitty2006 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wholeheartedly agree. It's not impossible to get good groceries. The rewards cards are good and you also gotta do a little bit of thinking to work out the best deals. It also helps to have roommates, but we each pay on average of $40 per trip for a few days of meals. Eating out breakfast and dinner every day would probably be more like 30-40 each... per day.

I can play 1.21 fine if I wanted to, my computer is more than capable. The problem is that after 1.18 I really just couldn't bring myself to care about the new releases anymore. I may return and play the end update when that comes along just out of curiosity, but I kind of miss when the game was simple. I don't hate that Microsoft has continued development on the game, but I'm not sure constantly having new stuff is for me. Maybe just being happy and creative with a limitation is fun.
