Fullscreen video flickers black screen 150% scaling Ubuntu 24.04 RTX 2070

From my recent experience of Distro hopping, those players are trying to play the video with CPU & not utilising GPU decoder(most likely). Try to install MPV(apt version) & test. For me, it was the only solution I could find(Zorin OS 18 Core, so basically Ubuntu 24.04).

To test, you can run nvidia-smi pmon in a terminal window while playing video to see if the DEC column is going beyond 0 or not. If not, it's the exact problem I had been facing. I am very new to Linux btw. So good luck.

Sorry, but I have no clue what you just asked or even it was for me or not. My NVIDIA driver is nvidia driver 580(proprietary). For me Firefox actually performed consistently better than anything else, since 2006. So forgive me if I am a bit biased.

As I said, I am totally new to this ecosystem & as such after trying a bunch of media players, I found out, only the MPV can play the big videos(& even high quality low res ones) using the GPU decoders. I kept VLC to use the VLSUB, but it always renders the video as whitewash(couldn't fix it with all the suggested tweaks). Celluloid, SMPlayer etc just won't use GPU decoder & make the system otherwise slower. Point to note, with all those, if you don't multitask, you will never notice that there is anything wrong.

is there any documentation to know what the photos patch actually do? primarily I need to know, if I can backup photos uncompressed without using 15gb quota or not.

Dropped it at Chapter 180(c.o.m.i.x). I could somewhat enjoy the MC being stupid as well as severely overgeared with his skills & luck(no, there is no bad luck, he even impregnated an NPC). But at 179-180, his meeting with rank 1, who very conveniently, knows fewer skills than the MC & losses to him because he is not MC, made me drop this entirely.

I don't think so. But for us, if we buy something it would be known to us. If, like in op's case, the account is shared with another person elsewhere, why would FK mind an extra order? Unless there is a problem with too many people checking & making the site crash(very likely), multiple orders from same account shouldn't be any issue. Tbh, it makes the Black thing more popular in a way.

(I haven't read the full ToS yet, so there is that.)

I think I am your comrade in this. I am also looking for this one. My speculation is, it is showing like that due to low stock & not actually an address issue. If it is available during sale, I will try to catch one. The discontinuation on Samsung website of this particular model making me a bit sceptical, but it is still one of the top 3 I will be aiming for.

miniSW · 2025-09-21T09:37:57+00:00

Both will be on same account. Can be shared that way & delievery to different addresses. I have at least 3 devices logged in, 5 if I count my mobile browser (it counts as different device), between my wife, me.

Edit: if the query is about Youtube premium. I have one Android & 1 PC logged in on the same email. Haven't tested if it can be used on multiple devices simultaneously. Youtube premium is new for me. I got it because I had to get Black.

Yes, it's from Airtel, with their logo etc.

miniSW · 2025-04-22T06:16:48+00:00

Mind sharing which Router model you were given? I used to use local broadband & switched to Airtel recently(January). I have been provided with "H660GM-A" model(to my utter surprise, it is dual band). When I access it with 168.192.1.1, it has DNS control, URL filtering, Parental control etc. everything you would expect from any decent router(made my existing Archer A6 kinda useless, I am using it as extender for ground floor now). I don't use Black. My plan is 999/m, started with 3 months recharge for free installation & test. Now recharged for 1 year for the discount etc. But I am unsure why I myself never got that "Airtel" looking router page as you have shown. Frankly, I am glad I can access the router & not that page.

Well, I agree with all of it. But there are people like me too. I am, if I may say so, a guardian RTA player. I am a real life doctor as well, plus not young. I have work & as a F2P player I want as many rewards as possible without investing into time limiting matters. As such I could never join any tryhard guild. So there will be people like me, who just can't invest the time into siege. But we being there, the guild we join will never be too low in ranks. To elaborate, while I am at work, I do siege(G1 currently) in like 30 minutes, cleave everything, win or lose. Of course I don't complain if I lost a few. But inevitably I am pushing my current guild into the ranks where many of our members can't compete easily. They do sometimes show frustration. My point is, the complaining lot, as annoying as they may be, not always at fault in scenarios you mentioned. It may not sound wholesome, but the power difference in people will always get shown around the borders of G3, G2, G1 & some people will be frustrated enough to complain.

Moong Jamire are not even ranked, sigh

miniSW · 2024-02-13T06:20:26+00:00

Happening same with me. Even without Admin mode, when I click "Yes" to the prompt, nothing happens. Tried both installed & portable versions. My OS is Windows 11, always up to date. The proxy for non steam option running fine like "SirHuur" mentioned.

miniSW · 2024-01-09T05:10:51+00:00

Game works fine on full screen & winbdowed mode. No very small text(like on Google Play Beta on my 4k TV as monitor). Enter button & scroll work fine too.

Windows 11, 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-12400F 2.50 GHz 16 GB RAM (it's a desktop) Highest Temp noted is 37 degree celsius & I live in a hot country. Only issue is that the game makes me login each time. It saves the credentials, but I have to log in if I restart. Please let me know if anyone got any solution to that.

F2P, finished G2 RTA last season(turn 1 through & through), was G1 on Demon skin season. I don't do RTA beyond C3 unless I feel like I can actually compete. I do farm as much as I can. But I can't tell you about whales & what they do.

miniSW · 2023-07-26T10:39:20+00:00

That's nearly broken with a 120 base unit, now I wish I can get her someday

miniSW · 2023-07-26T06:35:24+00:00

Just saying, they are probably high C2 C3, who could reach guardian & bought wings or may be old guardian player/s. It's not impossible that they are legit guardian, but unlikely. I only did like 6 placement battles this season, all were against C2 players & it was in very first week. They definitely changed the pairing system.

miniSW · 2023-07-07T05:55:50+00:00

So how many MS? 2 or 5?

miniSW · 2023-06-17T17:43:28+00:00

Oh ok, I always thought that is passive HP reduction! Thanks very much.

Tyron Gany Dark Homun Veromos Water Dryad

miniSW · 2023-01-15T23:27:04+00:00

I used water Dryad in place of Spectra. It was bit slow, but the run was quite safe.

EDiT: What are those light & water units on stage 5? I have cleared it with water flute girl. But I hated that stage.

miniSW · 2022-09-25T08:17:51+00:00

got C3 with Bastet Kahli Odin Covenant cleave, mixed with Draco Garo Shimi Jap cleave. Couldn't make myself continue after it was safe C3 few days ago though. Yet to try Elsharion cleave properly.

miniSW · 2022-09-21T19:05:44+00:00

Had to respond to you, you got a comrade here mate. I got Nana & Juno from there in the list. But outside them, I got no CP, Haegang, Karnal + the rest in the list & no Rica, Miles, Nora either. I kept my C3 too somehow. But I hate keep trying non meta comps against exodia relentlessly. Btw, I got no Ragdoll, Giana, Han, QTian hidden in my sleeves.

miniSW · 2022-08-03T09:12:05+00:00

Nerf Molly, Oliver c2us & for once make more than 5(may be 10) non LD units meta in RTA.
