480p is standard quality..agreed, but you also agree it lacks the sharp texture of 720p and 1080p and the original post said we should settle for 480p, so you see the problem... there's no life in which 480p x264 (x264 worst type of encode btw, wastes space) will be clearer than x265 720p except you get your x265 720p encode from a gutter quality source..The idea of 480p x264 is to reduce size without care for quality why x265 720p is to maximize space and retain the quality...so do you grab now?

I don't recall saying 480p x264 is better than 720p x265, I said 480p x264 is often larger and clearer than 480p x265 encode, which is true.

Of course, 720p of any encode will always be sharper than 480p resolution in light of the fact that it has more PPI.

4K and 8K is hardly discernible to the human Eye.
hardly but still discernible if not the tech world won't be pushing for 8k.Furthermore an 8k Tv will Upscale contents from 1080p and 4k better than a 4K tv.

270mb is 480p max (except in extreme rare cases Hevc 720p x265 can be around this size if the movie is capped around 1hr).480p can suffice for low end phones as "good quality", but high end phones to Pc and Tvs, and 480p is low quality, to put things in perspective, YouTube as of ast month doesn't classify 720p as HD, HD starts at 1080p for them now.

Nah bro, 480p is crystal clear on my Samsung S8+ super Amoled 2k resolution. In fact, there's not much difference between it and 720p, as least, with respect to my phone. It's only when I play a 1080p video on rare occasions that I see a sharp increase in texture resolution.

Still saying the same thing bro...Amoled screens are one of the very best phone screens...bro there are different source of 720p encodes and the ones i am used to all have a very sharp difference from 480p, glad you noticed the difference in texture on 1080p. IMO tho as it's subjective, and you know your phone best.

I always go for 720p HEVC x265 due to the budget size, as opposed to the bulkier x264. PSArips has the best HEVC encodes on the planet.

The old Guard.

Expected more when I watched the trailer. Can't say I'm disappointed though. The fight scene were not really that bad. There's a couple very good scenes, loopholes here and there. All the same, not a bad movie.

I rate it 6/10.

Da fuk? Naya Rivera is dead? Just saw this one Twitter. Damn
The glee curse strikes again. She's the fourth person and the third cast member on the show to die. Conspiracy theorist have already started their work going with the blood sacrifice trope seen as she's 33. Some are even saying fox, her co-star lea Michelle (they both hated each other so much that they didn't speak to one another while shooting the final season of glee) and even Ryan Murphy have a hand in it

Me thinks it's another fancy gimmick to spur customers into the TV frenzy since 4K, OLED AND QLED craze died down.

Now its HDR and it better sibling Dolby Vision. Also 8k only seem to matter most when talking bout ultra sized TV's— 65"inch and above.
It's real benefits comes for the Future—next 5yrs, not now. 8k content is very rare to find sef. undecided mostly beneficial for upscaling.

Greyhound.



When the Captain finally decided to take a rest by going to sleep, felt like I was as wary as he was.

Nicely written.
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by solostar1: 10:53am On Jul 14, 2020
You guys should check this Netflix original--- Love, Death and Robot ( ie if am not late to the party). It has one of the nicest animation(s) I have ever seen.
You will not be disappointed.
Is a 100 for me.

You are not disappointed and expect more. What exactly do you expect? Confused guy.

The Old Guard is practically the best action movie in the world right now.

It is number 1 in the UK, Brazil, USA, Netherlands, Ireland, France, Portugal, Nigeria etc.

Chalize Theron of the Mad Max: Road Fury have always been a bad ass action portrayer. She always control and command her move perfectly.

The storyline was good and other cast was awesome too. Waiting for the next one.... Thee story line could even go beyond five sequel.

9/1O

4/10.

The movie was predictable and dull from beginning to end. Overhyped crap.

The moment I saw that villain's skyscraper office, I knew that the last fight was gonna happen there.

The protagonists had no challenges at all. All their opponents were humans- mortal humans. It would have been mad if they fought against immortals.
Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by Nobody: 12:53pm On Jul 14, 2020
But I thought the only thing the immortals have going for them is their immortality.


Do they have any superhuman strength or agility?

They have healing factor. That is a superhuman ability. Let them fight someone who has the same healing factor and then, maybe they would have to be more creative, like locking an immortal villain deep in cement or liquid to solid gold forever.

I watched a few episodes.
Not really my thing. The episodes were too short for me to get invested in anything.
Some episodes had good premise and overall the animation was good, but I wouldn't really recommend the show to any one.
