  1. All TV's . Its kinda like blowing up a small picture. It just gets grainy. Upscaling tries to fill in the gaps. It might be ok to go a few steps up 420 to 720 to 1080 but to go further is a mess . Unless you have something big enough for th escaler to work with. This explains it better than me. LOL So plain cable TV might be 720p it has I think 777,600 pixels that would be impossible to stretch. I'm sure your TV has setting to compensate for this so those black bars are not half your TV. Remember, physical resolution is defined by the number of pixels on a display. It has nothing to do with the actual size of your TV. A 1080p TV screen is comprised of only 2,073,600 pixels, while a 4K screen has 8,294,400. If you show a 1080p video on a 4K TV without upscaling, the video will take up only a quarter of the screen. For a 1080p image to fit a 4K display, it needs to gain 6 million pixels through the upscaling process (at which point, it will become a 4K image). However, upscaling relies on a process called interpolation, which is really just a glorified guessing game.

  2. ok 4k has motion plus or some other name depending on brand. when its on it make the pic look like a 90's soap opera. turn that down or off and you will lose the crappy over worked image and get an outstanding pic

  6. Thanks for the suggestions Sharpe. I cleared my cache and still no luck. I'm on a MAC so couldn't even find my config file. But I just tried again tonight and all was good. So I hope the issue is behind me. Thanks again

  8. Another factor in proper 4k viewing is distance to the tv from viewing area.

  10. You only have what is there. Upscaling it to a 1080p signal worked ok upscaling it 4 more time kills it. I would set the TIVo to allow for the best picture signal. Cable reduces the signal for bandwidth reason and hopes the upscale works well. As you can see it does not. Good luck

    Well I should be back on later today if all the parts arrive. But on a side note I tried to get some practice in with the wife and kids, only to get wiped out by the Daughter and missus ???

  14. Thanks folks! The white ones (Azure Blues) are quite flighty, very skittish. The browns are more laid back. The browns are production birds and I see their upper beaks have been cut to stop pecking. I would not have ordered them with the beaks cut. I let my chickens free range, they can catch and eat all the bugs, worms, they love grass and weeds. This makes for a far better healthier bird and WAY BETTER EGGS. I'll post pictures when the eggs start.

  18. Now I didn't understand too much of this Weed, but if I gather right :- You've been trying to lay some chick at the local store, but despite your money you can't get laid (I understand this through personal experience), but you found a chick with blue eyes and shes expecting in 3-4 weeks ?

  19. At GOG.com, there are free games that all can download. I also see that they are running a special on UT GOTY. This is back from 1999. At only 1.99, that's a hell of a steal! I cannot tell you how many hours, days, weeks, months or years I played only this game. I have them all. 99, 2003, 2004, UT3 and Unreal II. Just thought I would post the site here for you all, in case you wanted to go RETRO sometime... Enjoy! https://www.gog.com/game/unreal_tournament_goty

    Take much time to set up and align? Out of town away from city lights is always best if you can. Nice and dark...

  28. To those who had login issues since day 1, I'm working for a FIX, I hope will solve the looping. This is a complex one to fix due to a redirect login using Oauth2 to authenticate a player through 2 steps . The former is first retrieving the XI server code while the latter happens after you validate your consent to the game which gives the app back a token to enter the game followed with a redirect to the login page. Not to go into detail, I have headache to come up by changing the login flow to fix the synchronization issue preventing you from login or endless loop. Stay tuned, I let you know to retest once I have gone through successful tests.

    Weed Gets New Laying Hens!

    Aw!, that's sad, as I said I know nothing about this subject but you may need a new cock?, I can lay my hands (well fingers actually) on one of the finest cocks in the world. A fresh new cock may be the stimulus needed for your household, think hard about it, sorry no pictures my telephoto lens is missing. Now being serious I don't think they do well unless there is a bunch of them as they feel threatened and stop laying. You need at least another two for harmony and their well being.
