I do have a double set with original (or as much as you could get) along with the post-prequels completely broken one. I think there was a pre-prequels version as well. But then that is DVD quality, which is getting on a bit.
The likes of Disney+ doesn’t even acknowledge the originals even exist.
Same with their Alien and Aliens versions as well. No director’s cuts at all, which is a shame as I far prefer them. They should have both.
They were course and rough and irritating and got everywhere.
The only way to watch the original Star Wars movies before George completely fucked with them is piracy.
The 4K77, 80 and 83 editions are what you’re after. Enjoy. There are apparently reduced noise versions as well, but I thought it was perfect as is. It’s old. It’s supposed to have noise and grain. The desert scenes in the first one are really noisy and I’m not 100% sure why. Maybe he filmed those on cheaper film stock in smaller cameras, but that’s just a guess.
Automated numberplate recognition systems have spoilt so much fun.
That’s less than a kettle, in the UK at least.
Of course I wouldn’t want to be running that all the time, because electric ain’t cheap.
Yes, but if the server isn’t fast enough to do it, then you’re going to have a bad time.
Yeah, it should have been fine. Was latest Ubuntu as well. Maybe something iffy about the laptop hardware, some obscure thing that wasn’t supported. In any case it’s gone now.
I tried this recently with a 10 year old laptop. Much better specs than that. 6GB RAM, ran W10 incredibly slowly due to HDD.
I couldn’t even boot the Ubuntu USB installer.
I find Kodi decent on my nVidia Shield, where Jellyfin often struggles. Especially when it comes to subtitles.
Strongly dislike the UI though.
Same in my smaller UK city. If you’re a tourist, it’s probably a decent idea. Might work in London or somewhere like that. But Nottingham? Who is going there to see the sights? There’s only a slightly rubbish castle. Don’t take long to see that. Most of the Robin Hood tat is up at Sherwood Forest, and you ain’t taking a toy scooter to go and see that.
For a commuter, that scooter would be taken to their office, would sit outside all day, then they’d take it back. Just the regular 9 to 5 workday. That’s not a sustainable business model. They’d need to be just in a really busy area, and in use all the time.
I use an Nvidia shield pro.
Certainly handles Jellyfin and Moonlight (for gaming, I could never get Steam Link working smoothly).
I assume there’s a YouTube client you can drop on it but I don’t use YouTube for much because I can’t stand YouTubers.
