I have this 4K disc. I did my usual process with it. I checked it on my PC just to make sure it played and I noticed it looked fairly dark. Thought that was odd but I coped it to my NAS and played it on 2 TVs. Same thing, seems really dark. I am not sure why this is and I cannot think of a...

Good morning, I bought a cable to power my 4080. The reason is I wanted a right angle on the 16 pin plug on the GPU as I can see it gets pulled on from the weight of the cable. I bought a Cooler Master cable which claims to be compatible with Corsair PSUs (which I have). My PCIE power cables...

I always check to see what's coming out in 4k. I look for the older stuff they remaster typically. These discs are usually around $25 on pre-order and sometimes less if the price drops when they ship. But I just checked a handful that are being released in a couple months. They are $39 now.

I use YT-DLP a good bit. And it's has a long and tedious command structure. And I got tired of navigating around in CMD and running it. I thought it would be fun to make an old skool bat file just to save me a little time. It's fairly handy. It asks if you want to pull down another file and...

I have today and yesterday run past a few titles on AP that were 960x400. It was 3 or more. There might be some correlation between them but I stopped here on 1 that I know should be in HD. "Despicable Me 3" My log is attached. --EDIT-- I am seeing more of these. Now the one I mentioned...

What Amazon has done to their AP interface makes me want to punch a baby. Listings the size of my head that when you hover over them they animate. It's as if someone who just learned flash designed that site. Since the AS interface for AP is based on chromium, I was wondering if the ability...

I did not find this site. Some kind soul on this forum told me about it and I thank them publicly for it. This site has tons of great info and reviews. I use it often to see what UHD discs are being released and when. It's allowed me to snag some great discs as soon as they come out. This...

This is not just P+ of course but I am sure that plays a role here. Interesting either way. Could be due to poor economy, could be to P+ dragging them down in part, or could be both. https://deadline.com/2024/02/paramount-global-billion-charge-layoffs-content-shifts-1235841287/

Just noticed this because I redownloaded it. I grabbed it from AP initially and saw that their 1080p streams were tiny as in well below 1gb with 265. I pulled with P+ direct and that's 2x the size. So that's obviously not all 265 vs 265. But one episode shows only in 480p, episode 2. Log...

I am posting this here as this has NOTHING to do with Anystream. I currently have P+ via Amazon. If I play a title on my Roku Amazon app no ads from Amazon (yes I paid the their ad blood money), but when I watch something on Amazon P+ I get ads. If I try that in a browser I don't. Anyone...

I am ready to upgrade my NAS. But it seems hard drives (mechanical) are now hard to find in the usual places. I found 1 place online that sells OEM (new) drives for a good price. I realize OEM=no warranty but saving hundreds on 6 drives is worth it to me. Are there other places? Amazon has...

My NAS for Plex is near 100% full. I am planning on buying 6 new drives for it and slapping the old 6 in a large USB enclosure for backup. I was going to go with Seagate exos drives but they all of a sudden seem few and far between. WD is better but only a little. Anyone know what might be...

Got this yesterday from D+.

I am just trying to dig into this. I don't think I have ever had this issue before. I am using Handbrake to rip so maybe this is Handbrake, maybe AnyDVD I cannot tell. I know I can play the specific title just fine with AnyDVD running and Handbrake shows the correct length. About 22mins...

I know many of us have talked openly about physical media dwindling as the push for subscriptions and license to access only are pushed. But if you look around you will see that anything new of note that comes out is released on Blu-ray (standard 1080p I mean) and 4k. But in addition to that...

I snagged this whole series with no issues same this 1. I tried several times and got the same DRM error each time. log attached Thank you

Anyone else experienced low volume when Plex transcodes some sound? I have not put my finger on it yet but I suspect the higher quality streams to be the ones that are doing this. The lower end stuff like AC3 seems to come out fine when being played/transcoded. Specifically, so far, it seems...

I just got this minutes ago. "We are writing to you today about an upcoming change to your Prime Video experience. Starting January 29, Prime Video movies and TV shows will include limited advertisements. This will allow us to continue investing in compelling content and keep increasing that...

There are a number of YouTube downloaders including AS. I wanted something similar for Rumble. Just shooting from the hip I gave YT-DLP a try. Initially it did not work. But I saw why fairly easily. Their URLs go to an HTML page directly for every video. Meaning the url literally ends in...
