It always wants to transcode ass subs on mine. Ffmpeg can extract them to srt though so I do that.

Bazarr is OK, but getting subtitles that are actually synced(and stay synced) to your particular video can be a pain.

I try to just grab things with subs already included.

Those billion AI GPUs won't pay for themselves you know.

Maxwell Tent: just because you're homeless, doesn't mean you can't enjoy great coffee. Well, it does, because this is swill not fit to rinse your drains with, but you know...

Of course. Shareholders want results, and not just results for nVidia's bottom line.

They've been pretty underwhelming for a while now.

You used to get crazy deals on games only a few months old. Now it's just the same 50% off a five year old game before being ramped back up to full price between sales.

There's a few bargains of stuff you may have missed, but likely they've been an Epic freebie, or on PSPlus or in a Humble Bundle by now.

Did you play the first one in the reboot trilogy?

There's a bit where she has to kill somebody in self defence and then breaks down over it, before spending the entire rest of the game plonking arrows through people's skulls.

I never used either. Never really understood the culture of gormlessly scrolling through mind-numbing content.

But then I also gave up broadcast TV before even Netflix was popular. Just spent a small fortune on bargain bin DVDs instead.

"but his son will ride a camel..." vibes.

It's been pretty decent.

Supports Dolby Vision/Atmos etc. Image based subtitles (e.g. those ripped from a disc) end up getting transcoded, but that seems the only thing it doesn't natively support. Had trouble with AV1 but I'm not sure if that's a general thing or that one specific file.

I don't think so. They're quite cheap when it comes to knocking these out, and didn't have a higher poly model to go off like they did with Tomb Raider or Soul Reaver.

I'm still salty over how many tweaks they could have made to improve that and didn't bother.

I use an nVidia Shield for it. There's probably cheaper ones, but you tend to get what you pay for, and I've got a few 4KBR remuxes that even that struggles on.
