I would hope so because the game on PS5 has possibly the best use of HDR that I have seen and is a benchmark to other developers on how it is implemented correctly.
Because HDR is not the same thing as if you were maxing out the brightness of your SDR screen. Doing the latter pushes up the brightness of everything, from whites to dark greys and makes everything look uncomfortably bright. With HDR the maxed out the brightness (which they are by default) only...
You call it streamlining, I call it dumbing down... 😝 I kid I kid. Anyway this may be a generational thing. When it comes to my PC I am a terrible control freak. I want to have 100% control (although that is quite impossible nowadays) on what goes into my system and what goes out of it, low...
As far as as looks go, I am with Zarathustra on this one. I already have enough problems with visual noise, trouble finding stuff I need from the graphical mess that most UI are these days. NVCP was clean and efficient, you had everything you needed available neatly organised. Yes it was old and...
Yeah thats why it is still beta. 😁 Personally though, I am not a fan of modern "clean" style of UI that have a habbit of hiding everything important to you somewhere out of the way and in the end are more confusing to power users. As oldschool as NV control panel is it is still super clear and...
I have to bump this thread because ho lee shit!!! Microsofts AutoHDR is kinda lackluster because of the limited compatibility and the fact you have to play around with gamma settings to not make everything look washed out by default. This (possibly) upcoming feature just works out of the box and...
There is a petition to opensource WMR.
https://chng.it/HVxSj5VQvc
Petitions like this rarely ever work even if they gather a lot of traction but I signed it anyway just for support. This is a stupid decision from Microsoft.
On the contrary, HP Reverb G2 was quite popular headset for simmers on a budget. It still has a good image quality even by todays standards.
Granted simmers are a niche among a niche but if this really meant that their devices stopped working I would be absolutely livid.
More like Samsung deserves more shit than just replacing this one dudes TV. I do not believe for two seconds that this was the first time this stunt happened. Samsung has to go through all previous warranty decisions that this guy was involved in and see how many of "mysterious cuts" there are.
And so is reddit, they are practically censoring every post which contains this video. Why? Are they pressured by Samsung who is a big advertiser in there? 🤔
Unsure if they are the same. My TCL uses MediaTek MT9653 chip.
Yes I get that but if you use Passthrough mode on your TV then why would you want to route everything through your AVR?
TCL also uses Mediatek processor and doesn't have this issue. And why wouldn't you want to plug your 2.1 capable AVR to eARC? Lag? As long as you enable Passthrough mode (as in take it away from Auto setting that defaults to TV handling your audio) in your TV settings then eARC does not...
Bit of a necrobump but yeah, I do get the grievance. Two HDMI 2.1 ports may technically be enough for most people but problems do arise if one of the ports is also your eARC port. Maybe things are better these days but because of the very loose HDMI 2.1 standard there used to be a lot of...
I used to have AdobeRGB monitor, HP LP24something, I do not remember the model exactly, and when you used it to watch sRGB content (basically everything PC related) it made everything look really weird. Colors were super saturated and almost candy like and every person suffered from chronic...
I have been testing this feature with Youtube videos now (still waiting for MPC Video Renderer Support) to get a little taste of this. Before going any further, a little heads up. There is a slight bug in the latest drivers related to this feature. When you have HDR on but have this new HDR...
Now this looks interesting. But how? Video is fairly static, there are no details to dig out. The range of brightness is set at the mastering and skewing that up is, I guess, similar to using "Dynamic" mode in TV's which stretches the extremes to high heavens, probably just without the crushing...
4070 Ti Super is not bad but a bit dissapointing. Not only it is a card that 4070 Ti was supposed to be ALMOST A YEAR AGO, it also just managed to make 7900XT look very good now that its price has dropped. And make no mistake, at ~800€ 7900XT IS fantastic as long as you do not care about Ray...
Did those damages occur from user error like not pushing the cable all the way in? Because as far as I can tell the old 6 and 8-pin PCIe power cables have proven themselves quite reliable and idiot proof. You have to really mess up, probably intentionally, to cause the cable itself to fail. Just...
It is very anticlimatic ending to this because it was very obvious that Billy-boy was a lying cheating scumback. Again a good example of "why loser pays it all" is necessary because the reason why it was settled was because Twin Galaxies did not want to invest that much money on a lawsuit that...
IPS was a nice upgrade when the only other option was those old god awful older generarion TN panels and VA was still in its infancy. Now, for media consumption and gaming I would never buy anything other than VA panel with local dimming, if OLED is out of question that is.
Definetly. Provided...
I have little against Denuvo. I never had a single problem with it personally and if a company wants to use it to prevent piracy from couple of weeks to few months, that is okay in my book. As long as the piracy prevention stays within the confines of the game and does not mess with the rest of...
As was pointed earlier, Japanese companies are wetting their pants over this feature. I do hope people are smart and boycott this shit. I don't care how much one expects Dragons Dogma 2, if it comes with this DRM then it should be boycotted and done so loudly. Just like Starforce this DRM should...
The only reason why IPS may have less black crush is because they are usually tuned to Relative gamma. The darkest levels are compensated and pushed up to fit to the limits of the panel. Calibrate them to Absolute 2.2 gamma (or even better, 2.4 which is the current standard for SDR movies) and...
The game feels EMPTY. In Fallout and Skyrim, despite the dated engine issues, it had an interesting world for you to immerse yourself in and filled to the brim with stuff. When you receive a quest in either game what usually happens is that while traveling to the end of that quest you see new...
Personally I turn that shit off immidietly. Only things that works in Defender is the antivirus itself (set up to ask before quarantine) and Firewall. Everything else is unnecessary fluff for me. If I want to run a prorgram that is not "M$ approved" then that is up to me and want to do it...
I am also who is very jaded about modern TV and the in-your-face political agenda first, story and coherent writing be damned approach but after seeing the trailer I am cautiously optimistic. That actually looked really good. Maybe a little too clean, not enough rust and grime but otherwise I am...
I used to use Samsung KS7500 49" for years and just last week I upgraded to TCL C805 50". Deep desk, viewing distance about 1.5 meters. An affordable ~500 zone mini-led local dimming and 120hz with VRR and stunning HDR performance that almost rivals my OLED TV, oh my god gaming is heaven on it...
On southern europe, especially bigger coastal trading regions? Sure. Not living there probably but visiting and trading, definetly. Inland? Hell no. A black man or woman traveling into a middle european farming village who rarely see outsiders anyway would have caused quite an uproar, if not a...
Why? I mean, it is very cool in a mad science experiment sort of way but out of the all Forgotten Realms based CRPG's I have played the first NWN campaign is easily the worst of the bunch. 🤔
You do not have to use it at max setting. The quality difference between level 2 and max level 4 is not huge but the difference between their power draw is.
Good riddance. That said the board has some equally has equally nasty people from what I have gathered. Throwing Riccitello out is good but I doubt he was the the sole cause of this mess but he was a convenient scapegoat. That said I hope this was a sufficient warning for the Unity to not mess...
Well what ever they are, they are not the droids I am looking for. In fact, random bots should just stay the hell away from these forums. Bots on Reddit are already annoying.
Streaming. Your GPU encodes the image on a fly into a streamed video, which is then transferred into the VR headset either via USB-C or by wifi.
Quality is not as good as hdmi or displayport, there may be artifacts in extreme cases (flying between planets in No Mans Sky is a good stress test...
Quite a corporate suicide. Per installation based tax? Oh that is totally not vulnerable for abuse of any kind, either from disgruntled gamers or from Unity themselves... 🙈
If they are really hurting for money then they should have gone to a 'cut from revenue' based system like Unreal does...
