I did some testing, and it turns out I did not have Direct Stream Play forced. I think I enabled it at one point, but I didn't see much difference on the "worst case scenario" video I was testing with. Looking at the Dashboard page, I can see that that particular video is still transcoding video from MPEG2VIDEO to H264, and audio from AC3 5.1 to AAC. I may have to look into re-encoding that particular series, though the files for that show should have followed the same process as most of my other files, so I'm not sure why they're different.
Some other videos that I tested did show improvements when forcing Direct Play, but the Dashboard still shows transcoding (hw) video from H.264 to H264 (note the missing period) and transcoding audio from DTS-HD MA 5.1 to AC3.
As far as my TV setup, I don't have external speakers. I'm essentially feral, and I don't feel like they're worth it in most situations. The built-in TV speakers get loud enough, and sound fine to me. I'd rather not have to defend that setup, so hopefully no one comes at me for that unless it's actually responsible for the audio delay.
"Roe v. Wade is settled law. They just use the issue to rile up their base. They'd never overturn it!" and other lies we tell ourselves...
Do you have a way to do that? I don't see any settings that allow that, which is why I posted.
Or did you mean just re-encode all of my video files with a delay to fix the one device that has an issue?
Keep in mind that many red states have attempted to essentially ban online porn with their overbearing age-verification laws. A savvy internet user would be less likely to pick an exit node in a red state, given the choice.
That's an amazing writeup. Thanks! I'll take a look.
Do you have somewhere I could get more information?
Most of my video files are mkv, encoded as MPEG, and audio is AC3 5.1, but I'm only playing audio through my TV speakers, so maybe it's transcoding for my cheap 2-speaker setup? I also typically enable subtitles, which I think can cause transcoding.
I've enabled Direct Stream wherever I could find it, but it didn't seem to have any effect.
What I'd like is the ability to fix out-of-sync audio. My wife won't watch movies/tv/etc on Plex (on Roku) because some part of it creates an audio delay, and it really bothers her that the audio doesn't match the lip movement.
I've tried all sorts of settings, both server and client. It mostly only seems to affect my Roku, though, so that seems to be the issue. I just want to add a small video delay or something.
As a hydrocarbon enthusiast, I'm going to have to say it's not really optional.
Congrats! What was uncomfortable about previous shoes, and what did you finally settle on?
Mister Beardsley!?
I don't see how her choice to decline the invitation would affect her career. Not going seems like a non-issue that will barely even enter public discourse.
If she had gone and protested, she might have been dropped by her label (I don't know how progressive Island Records is). Even then, the "no such thing as bad press" axiom might have worked in her favor. It seems like her fan base is pretty fervent, meaning she would likely be attractive to another label.
I often lean forward while running. It's a bad habit that I never really had a reason to break. Then I tried running on an unpowered treadmill that has a curve to the platform (something like this). If I lean forward while running on it, it just keeps going faster, and I have a bad time.
I noticed that as soon as I corrected my form, the treadmill became a much more pleasant experience. If you run on one of those enough, I'm sure you'll make a habit of running with better form.
So you're saying that Trump committed a crime and posted photographic evidence of said crime on his social media?
Folks, we got him!
I'm sure this will be the thing that finally sinks him. /s
If you tell it to write code for an impossible concept, it can't make it
I haven't played with it much, but I thought it would go ahead and produce something, then tell you that it works until you tell it otherwise.
What kind of running/training are you doing? Slow & steady, HIIT? I'd love to make those kind of VO2Max gains!

That assumes you can unplug it. Most devices I own have the camera built right into the device, and it can sometimes be hard to find an option that doesn't include it. I have a Webcam cover on my desktop and laptop.
I haven't seen one that would work for my phone, but if someone has hacked my phone, I probably have bigger issues.
KnowBe4 has an article about their experience.
They also covered at least one other instance in the US.
So, if I grab an item off the shelf and browse around the store for a while, is the price going to be the price currently displayed or the price when I grabbed it?
If it's the current price, what's the point of a price tag? If I can't actually know the price until checkout, then showing me the price is kind of a useless bit of data. I also suspect that the "speak to a manager" types would make that a major headache for stores.
If it's the price when I grabbed it, how are they keeping track of that? I see two ways of handling that: one requires that you use their app to shop, and the other requires cameras and "machine vision" that are still unreliable, at best. The former seems more likely, but I doubt either is going to sit well with customers.
Edit: someone pointed out that it might not actually display a price, and you'd have to scan it to get your price. Kind of like the first option, but I think it's going to turn off less tech savvy customers.
I haven't seen that aspect addressed in any articles about the "feature".
I'm choosing to see the horn as it's upper lip, and it's actually having the best time.
