5dtorgb vs adobe media encoder7/14/2023 I'm way out on the bright side of nowhere here. I’m sure other people are reading this as well.In AME, I created an encoding Preset where I didn't select the "Match Source" tick box and instead set the Height & Width dimensions manually to 1920x1080. Can’t thank you enough for your time and knowledge. Regarding prior question # 2, When I check the Max Render in PPRo sequence, does that only affect the timeline render in PPro and has nothing to do with the export to disc? Meaning, can I uncheck it in PPro and just check it in AME for disc output? (I’m not using previews in AME when exporting to disc.)Īnd for prior # 3, If I should check it in PPro, should I check it in AME as well? I get the feeling it will help for upscaling, I guess some testing is in order, because when checking that box it adds a great deal of time when processing a 2 hour film so I’d like to know if it is all worth it. I wish there was more unity in the answers. “Mo” says to check it for up or downscaling but doesn’t issue reason or referral. I think jaggies occur during downscaling, which is what he may be referring to. “Neil” says to check the Max Render when scaling, but doesn’t clarify upscale or downscale. I’ve read the posts in the links you gave me. Thanks Larry for your quick and informative reply. Just thought I’d append this, for any of your users that have experienced this phenomenon. This is a bit annoying, as premiere likes to “randomly” change my default export settings from time to time, so I have to always confirm that “Use Maximum Render Quality” box is checked. AND checking the box in the AME preset doesn’t seem to help either…I HAVE to check it from the initial export window in premiere, or some gfx end up pixelated. Also, checking “Use Maximum Render Quality” in sequence settings doesn’t seem to make any difference with this phenomenon, btw….only when exporting. Or, maybe I’m doing something incorrectly elsewhere in my settings/workflow? I always use “Set to Frame Size”, not “Scale to Frame Size” on graphics, btw. I should mention that I’m on a “maxxed-out” Mac Pro 5,1 (cheesegrater) with an Nvidia GTX 770 card using CUDA (which means I’m still in High Sierra & Premiere 2019, to keep CUDA support), so maybe newer machines/premiere 2020/Metal have made this checkbox obsolete, like you said. I’m not sure why some and not others (I’m sure it’s connected to scaling of some sort, but strangely it doesn’t seem to be determined by the resolution of graphic, as some that are HIGHER res than sequence get pixelated sometimes, while some others that are lowered and being scaled up do not), but it happens. I’ve found that if I don’t check “Use Maximum Render Quality” in export settings when exporting, that SOME of my graphics/images end up pixelated. Hello Larry, thank you for all your work over the years helping us editors! Given the number of effects that are now GPU accelerated, there is no benefit to using Maximum Bit Depth, because that is used by the GPU automatically. In that case, turn Maximum Render Quality on. When exporting from Premiere, leave both these options off unless you are scaling images larger and seeing jagged lines on the edges of your images. When creating a new sequence in Premiere Pro CC, make sure both options are turned off. In Adobe Media Encoder, which handles all exports from Premiere, make sure that the Video Renderer is set to Metal (or the soon to ship Metal 2). As of this time, scaling is still CPU-based, and only effects calculated using the CPU are affected by this setting. The only reason to turn it on is if you are scaling your images – up or down – and see jagged edges on clearly defined diagonal lines. If you have a GPU, this, too can be turned off. If you have a GPU, Maximum Bit Depth is irrelevant as you’re already getting that performance if applicable to your media. The short answer is: As Adobe migrates toward more GPU-based effects both of these options are quickly becoming unnecessary. But, what do they do and when do you use them? These settings can be applied to individual sequences or an entire export. Because of this, these two render options appeared many years ago and have been confusing editors ever since. However, converting Premiere from CPU-based effects to GPU-based effects is neither simple or fast. Since then, as GPUs took over the rendering load from CPUs, editing has gotten much, MUCH faster! A GPU is optimized for rendering digital images quickly in a way that a CPU just can’t. And, at the time, I thought that was amazingly fast!) (I still clearly remember adding a Gaussian Blur to a clip in Premiere 4, back in 1998, that took 30 seconds to blur a single frame of video. And, as you can imagine, that took a long time. In the beginning, before GPUs existed, all video scaling and rendering was done by the CPU.

Name day alexandros7/14/2023 Amanda Morris Kutztown University of Pennsylvania Alexandros Plasatis Made by Sea and Wood, in Darkness New York. This collection celebrates the resilience of Indigenous peoples and their many forms of storytelling. Indigenous characters stand front and center, giving readers a chance to dwell on stories, landscapes, and a range of imaginings they haven’t seen or heard before. They reflect language, the way we act and think, how we can choose to live-Mino Bimaadiziwin, living a good life.” Like the character in “Future World,” readers of this collection will walk an unexpected path of story that weaves a new narrative of Indigenous imagination and experience. She concludes, “I hope greatly that you will enjoy these graphic narratives as much as I have. The opposite is true: Indigenous people have survived to modern times and they are not just legendary people of days gone by.” In her foreword to the collection, Grace Dillon, editor of Walking the Clouds: An Anthology of Indigenous Science Fiction, writes brief summaries of the varied stories and culturally specific storytelling found within these Indigenous futurisms, comics that focus on everything from eco-tourism, water rights, climate justice, generational trauma, ceremony, Indigenous ways of respect and being in good relation, and potential dystopian futures. This comic opens with an important centering pull, “ offers this idea of Indigenous people as existing only in historical times. The Indigenous character in a futuristic hazmat suit considers a variety of selections from a screen that offers “Sit in the park of fresh air for only $79.99 an hour” or “Experience your god of choice for only $49.99 an hour.” But the character only wants to sit with an elder in time-sensory travel to hear traditional stories, until the machine “malfunctions” and something quite unexpected occurs.

Tides of numenera metacritic7/13/2023 Developers Larian took everything they got right with its predecessor and created one of the most polished and open experiences in RPGs. PS4, PS5, Switch, and Xbox Oneĭivinity: Original Sin 2 was released in 2017 on the PC, in 2018 on the Xbox One and PS4, and in 2019 on the Nintendo Switch. It’s a system that’s completely different from other games in the genre making it a landmark title in more ways than one. The game’s story is also developed depending on what stats are developed concerning the human psyche. It left the fictional city of Revachol in poverty and under the control of a capitalist alliance called The Coalition. RELATED: The Best PC-Exclusive Games Of The Decade, Ranked (According To Metacritic)Įlysium is set in a 1950s alternate universe after the collapse of a communist revolution. Disco Elysium puts its players in the shoes of a narcotic and alcohol addicted detective investigating a murder in one of the most unique settings in a generation. Released for the PC in 2019 with console releases following in 2020, Disco Elysium is both a classical looking CRPG with deep visual novel elements having a larger focus on storytelling and character interaction. PS4, PS5, Stadia, Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S 18 Star Wars: Knights of The Old Republic This also means that there is a lot of choice for players looking for a modern-day update of the classics. Thanks to the likes of Disco Elysium and Divinity: Original Sin 2 the genre has seen something of a renaissance on PC and console platforms. While these newer action RPGs are still compelling they seem to lack the flexibility, choice, and depth the older games offered. The genre was seen as dead in the water when action RPGs like Mass Effect took the Western RPG into a new direction. Updated November 2021 by Michael Llewellyn: Thanks to Kickstarter campaigns the CRPG has made something of a comeback. Let’s take a look at 10 of the best modern CRPGs. As a result, fans have got some of the best CRPGs of all time with many being as good as if not better than the games that inspired them all without an AAA budget. However, from 2013 onward gamers have seen something of a renaissance for the classically styled CRPG with help of Kickstarter crowdfunding methods. RELATED: Streets Of Rage: Arcade Classics That Also Deserve A Comeback Even BioWare’s excellent Dragon Age series couldn’t escape its feeling of linearity. Games like Baldur’s Gate and Planescape: Tormentstill offered its players far more choice and consequences for their actions the worlds felt more dynamic as a result. While those are fantastic titles in their own right, they weren’t the natural evolution of the RPG that many fans and even developers first thought. They were seemingly overtaken by the third person or first-person RPGs like Mass Effect and Fallout 3. It seemed that the CRPG was long thought a dead genre by AAA developers and publishers. New york city weather feel like7/13/2023 The changes will hurt economies and affect such industries as farming and tourism. Temperature changes will do more than make summers extremely uncomfortable for people who are used to milder temperatures. There are so many places without central air, and it is not cheap to put in and not cheap to run, and that’s just the start of planning that will need to happen,” said Ebi, who was not involved with the new study but who looks at the impact of climate change on health as a professor at the University of Washington’s Department of Global Health. “Buildings in Chicago are built for cold, for example, not heat. Kristie Ebi said more cities are going to be proactive and think about climate change and its impact on infrastructure. “This really will impact people in their daily lives.” “We love seeing studies like these because it’s a really good way to bring climate change in front of people,” Herrod said. Not a lot of Denver residents have air conditioning, but if the city’s climate becomes like Texas’, that will need to change, and residents will need to prepare.

But by 2080, according to the study, Denver’s climate would be around 9 degrees Fahrenheit warmer and more like that of the Texas Panhandle city of Borger, elevation 3,077 feet.ĬASTLE DALE, UT - OCTOBER 9: Emissions rise from the smokestacks of Pacificorp's 1440 megawatt coal fired power plant on Octoin Castle Dale, Utah. Take Denver, elevation 5,280 feet: The “Mile-High City” is known for its comfortable mountain climate and it depends on tourism featuring winter sports like skiing. The change could be particularly problematic in the West, where the study shows that the average distance between cities’ future climate and current “climate analogs” might be shorter.Ĭhanges in elevation show just how drastically different the climate could be in the future. San Francisco would have the climate of Los Angeles: 7 degrees warmer and 40% drier. Cities in Florida would experience summers more like what parts of Mexico has today. Western cities would be more like the desert Southwest. The Northeast would be more like the humid parts of the Midwest or southeastern United States. It’s not just the East Coast that could change. Massive insect decline could have 'catastrophic' environmental impact, study says (Photo by Sean Gallup/Getty Images) Sean Gallup/Getty Images Europe/Getty Images A study released last year conducted by entomologists over several years showed a strong decline in the shear numbers of insects in Germany, presumably due to the use of pesticides by farmers and the disruption of natural habitats. The project, which runs through August 12, is designed to raise public awareness over Germany's insect diversity. The project calls on volunteers across Germany to take an hour and count the various insects they find in a particular location, and thousands of people, both in urban and rural locations, are taking part. By 2080, summers in New York would feel more like those of Lake Shore, Maryland: about 4.4 degrees warmer and 9% drier.īERLIN, GERMANY - AUGUST 09: A bumblebee lands on a flower as workers from NABU (Naturschutzbund Deutschland, or Federation for Nature Protection Germany), Germany's biggest NGO for conservation and the study of nature, inspect an urban garden for insects while participating in NABU's "insect summer" project on Augin Berlin, Germany. If we cut emissions and enact policies that tackle climate change, the change won’t be nearly as extreme. That means that by 2080, many cities will probably experience “novel climates with no modern equivalent.”Īccording to the researchers’ interactive map, if emissions are not cut and climate change continues as it is, by 2080, summers in New York will feel like those of Jonesboro, Arkansas: an average 9.1 degrees Fahrenheit warmer and 20.8% drier. In many urban areas, the researchers from the University of Maryland, North Carolina State University and the National History Museum of Denmark at the University of Copenhagen found “substantial differences” between probable future climate and even the best scenario.

Imagination and thebrain7/13/2023 Contrary to current attempts to describe mental functioning as a form of computation, his view is that the construction of meaning is not the same as information processing. The ultimate goal of the cognitive sciences is to understand how the brain works-how it turns "matter into imagination." In Imagination and the Meaningful Brain, psychoanalyst Arnold Modell claims that subjective human experience must be included in any scientific explanation of how the mind/brain works.

Lensforge review7/13/2023 It is a carry-over from the original Formex brand, and the concept is to shield the watch movement if your wrist is to experience a lot of shock of vibration. Mind you, that is 10mm-thick with Formex’s patented case-suspension system. The case is on the larger size (for a dressier watch) at 43mm-wide, but it has a relatively modest 49mm lug-to-lug distance and a case that is just 10mm-thick. I never would have taken him as a Formex customer, and yet, there he was having bought it with his own money after choosing between it and other products.Īdhesion to a certain set of Swiss design rules helps the Essence looks its best. It suited him just fine, and I was impressed that he chose it. He chose his with a metallic brown dial and matching brown leather strap. It was an older gentleman and not someone who looked like he was about to go take out his motorcycle. I actually recall the first person I saw in the real world wearing a Formex Essence - and I have to admit I was shocked at who was wearing it. It will take some years now to see how wearers of Formex watches will help shape what our perception of the brand will be. No, it doesn’t have the marketing power of an Audemars Piguet to imply that “wearing an Essence means you are rich,” but it also won’t cause any timepiece enthusiast to seriously doubt your purchase.įormex is an affordable brand, and it’s also a brand that the enthusiast community is currently building on its own. It has the “look at me” polish of a piece of jewelry (because steel loves a good, flat surface finish), with the timeless good looks of a horological instrument. While not exactly a visual copy, the Formex Essence means to live in somewhat the same universe at the Royal Oak, or any high-end “sporty” casual steel watch. It’s comfortable, attractive, easy to read, and ticks off a lot of boxes watch enthusiasts have on their meticulous lists. Today, Formex has beaten the odds by relaunching as a re-imagined version of the original and not totally sucking at it! What can I say? This under-$1,300 (or even $800, depending on the version) Swiss-made watch is hard to beat for the money. The Essence comes after the Formex Element (aBlogtoWatch review here), the product that really relaunched the brand, in my opinion. The “new” Formex’s second major product is the Formex Essence - which I have reviewed here today. Redline gearbox oil review7/13/2023 This fluid is less slippery for improved synchronizer coefficient of friction and offers stronger film strength for better wear protection. This shear-stable formula resists breakdown for extended periods and offers more consistent viscosity in warm and cold temperatures for less gear noise and improved shifting. It has a perfect coefficient of friction to allow easier and faster gear changes even when cold. Its now been 5 days since this mixture went in and I LOVE it. It provides excellent protection to gears and improves the life of synchro rings. So after draining out the old MT-90 (fluid that came out was very clean), I pumped in 1 quart of the Redline Lightweight Shockproof gear oil followed by 1.3 quarts of the Redline MT-85 75W-85 gear oil using a transfer pump. RED LINE MT-90 HIGH-PERFORMANCE GEAR OIL is a full-synthetic ester-based lubricant designed for use in manual transmissions and front-wheel-drive transaxles. The formulation behind RED LINE MT-90 creates the perfect friction coefficient, with a balanced slipperiness that ensures smooth gear shifting. Red line MT90 is a synthetic 75W90 oil designed for use in synchromesh gearboxes. Compatible with petroleums and other synthetics.Excellent for high- and low-mile transmissions.Excellent gear and synchro protection, balanced slipperiness for easier shifting in cold climates.MT-LV, MTL, MT-85 & MT-90 are not for use in differentials with hypoid gears. Red Line offers lubricants to pinpoint nearly every transmission application Description Safe for brass synchros, as it lacks the reactive sulfurs found in most GL-5 oils that cause damage Offers quicker shifts, perfect synchronizer.Appropriate coefficient of friction for most manual transmission synchronizers (other's synthetic gear oils are often too slippery for proper synchro engagement) RED LINE MT-90 HIGH-PERFORMANCE GEAR OIL is a fully-synthetic ester-based lubricant designed for use in manual transmissions and. Red Line Non-Slip Synthetic Gear Oil is very similar to standard Red Line Synthetic Gear Oil, but with a special formulation to help ensure more effective lock.Since most GL-5 gear oils for differentials are too slippery for manual transmissions, Red Line offers these products that ensure proper shifting while providing ultimate wear protection Before returning an item sold by a Third Party Seller, please review the following Third Party Seller Returns Policy to confirm that your return is eligible.
