Basically nothing, it’ll just work.
Basic local wifi is plenty fast for any local video streaming situation unless you’re operating on the edge of signal range due to distance or problematic physical materials in the way.
I can literally stream UHD Blu-Ray Remux’s over an Asus AC68U wireless access point to my unremarkable Wal-mart purchased Asus laptop or my Steam Deck.
Multiple concurrent clients could be an issue at some point of course, but for just ‘you’? Nah, most stuff is more than enough.
Not asserting this isn’t the case, I’ve not noticed it, but I can’t see why this would be the case for the actual encoding. Decoding I’ve seen it make a difference but that’s mostly the pre-Skylake iGPUs using a poor implementation of QuickSync.
No, it’s totally a fact. Software encoding yields you better results in terms of ‘quality per megabyte’ over hardware encoding unless you are using some real bad sloppy software encoding results. If size efficiency matters more than anything, you use software encoding or you’re basically leaving money on the table. Of course the downside is that hardware encoding is a whoooooooooooooole heck of a lot faster.
If your family member’s who leave their TV’s frame interpolation setting enabled are the bad guys, this OP is the boss fight.
black friday deals havent been that great in 20 years. it used to be a major deal.
This is bullshit.
Black Friday was insane for a handful of years following the Great Recession of 2008. Lasted till the very early 2010s. Retailers were desperate, desperate, to get you in the door or buying things on the website.
That’s not a foot print. The patter exactly follows the bubbles in the envelope. It just got dirty, and dirty in such a way that the dirt only contacted the slightly raised bubbles, so it must have come into contact rather gently.
And seriously, your drive packaging is not crushed, wouldn’t that have been you first hint that it had not been stepped on? Like, for comparison, put the drives back in the envelope, stomp on it with your foot, and compare the results.
By ‘DVD Player’ I’m gonna assume you mean ‘DVD DRive’ on a computer, and not a box you plug into your TV.
The drive region only matters for legit playback on licensed DVD playback software. For ripping software, they’re effectively agnostic, they’ll rip any disc no matter the region code of the drive or disc.
Have you tried using the Perif1 port on the PSU? THat’s actually identical to the SATA ones, it’s just technically supposed to be used for SATA connectors, but they’re actually all the same thing on the PSU side. I have Supernova P2s and I’ve run SATA cables out of the PERIF1 for years.
This is a big part of it IMO. Even ‘streaming exclusive’ stuff that see’s no physical release gets pirated enmass so many copies exist. Few people copy YouTube content however, since it’s already online, free, and easily accessible. …Until the day it’s not accessible of course.
