The Cat In a Hat

People only see fan service when they want to.

I actually agree with Mala about all the references that seemed fan servicey to me. But those things didn’t make it a bad film. It was a fun ride for the most part. But I certainly liked all the other recent star wars films more.

I assume you bought it from a restaurant in that case.

You jest. But this DiGiorno claims that it bakes fresh from my oven for a night above the rest.

So finally I will have The High Ground.

Has anybody besides Mala said that they liked TLJ and hated Solo? I’m only seeing “liked both”, “hated TLJ but liked Solo”, and “hate everything, why am I even still here”.

Yep.

I loved TLJ, but only liked Solo.

But you didn’t dislike it.

I sorta understand the boring complaints, but yeah. Then again, there is very little star wars that I dislike.

I loved TLJ, but only liked Solo.

Anyone figure out a definitive way to fix the jerky/choppy playback? I’m trying to play the file on my Apple TV 4K via Plex. I’ve tried remuxing it with both MKVToolNix and MP4Tools. Neither worked…

Wired or WiFi.

The server is wired but the Apple TV is wireless. I don’t think it’s a buffering issue though. There seems to be an issue with the file on certain video players based on everyone else’s comments. Some said they were able to fix it by remuxing but that hasn’t worked for me.

Sorry to hear. Just some thoughts:

• when playing, check your Plex server, does it show if it is transcoding audio and or video? Is it a cpu speed issue?
• I found this, but you probably did too https://forums.plex.tv/discussion/309813/how-to-apple-tv-4k-mkv-4k-hevc-hdr-playback

Thanks, yeah I saw that link. My server says ‘direct stream’ for the video and transcoding for the audio. Are you able to play it with a similar setup?

I don’t have the right equipment. I have a wired Roku 4210x2, so it’s 1080p only. But it mostly can play the 4K, but with lots off buffering during busy scenes as my i3 stuggles to keep up with the transcoding.

Lol, but only ranks at a 5 of 6

Not too bad.

You know what I meant. 5 or 6.

Ramos is Ramos. I don’t hate him: he’s just a son of a bitch.

A big stick.

The rules broke my router.

Reminds me of a time about a month ago when I had to get my lifeguard status recertified and I stood on a chair, threw a CPR doll on the floor and said “It’s over mannequin!”

Did you get recertified?

I’m going to see it in about three hours, yay!

Yay

The IMAX place here just reopened after months of renovation. Should I see Solo there, or not worth it?

Meh. I saw it on a small screen and it didn’t seem like I missed out on much.

Nice

I’ve tried to get the 4K version running on MPC-HC with madVR, but whatever I do, I get really choppy playback. Any pointers, or should I just download the 1080p version?

I’ve got a new 4K TV I’d love to play this on, and although it’s being said there is little difference between the two, I’d love to watch it in its native resolution.

Grab mkvtoolnix and remux the file, other people have had success with smoother playback after doing that.

Yeah, but you can’t see them.

Me neither

I leave that up to others. I may do so over time.

This isn’t a fly by night thread, this one is gonna stand the test of time!
