Yeah if you care about cinema you definely want a better resolution and considering to buy your UHD versions whenever available, but I could say the same for some modern videogames.

Well, 4k is a great technology for gaming and cinema, highly recommended if you have the space.

So you don't have a 4k blu-ray player? Consoles still make sense for many people, despite the obvious market issues we have today.

Mastodon doesn't like Addy aliases in c/fediverse@lemmy.world

Good point. In my case the problem is too many email accounts to manage, Addy is good for that; I could also use more Thunderbird but Tuta doesn't like it, Proton and other corpo provider do not deserve another user.

Just donate to PeerTube

I think the more interest it raises, the more donations we can expect for developers and instances.

What does peertube solve ultimately?

Once full featured, basically everything.

Do you think Square Enix should remake other Final Fantasy entries? in c/games@lemmy.world

No. Stop with remakes, remastereds and reboots.

I'm always pro to retail in arts, people should care more about digitalization into other fields. As a PC gamer I'm starting to collect some used console and blurays, they costs mostly the same as digital but you own something. Also don't forget the preservation issue.

Gamepad not recognized when turned on after starting games (slrpnk.net)
 

EndeavourOS (Arch Linux) user here.

Is this just me? Everything works perfectly, but if the controller turns off and on again while a game is running, it's no longer recognized, and this forces me to restart the game.

I don't know how useful it is but I tried to join the input group, nothing changed.

Enigma: Having a hard time figuring out how to fix SumoDigital games audio (slrpnk.net)

The beautiful games I own are Snake Pass and Sonic Racing Transformed, both of which have sound issues (muffled audio) when played through a cheap soundbar via bluetooth, audio for all other games with this soundbar works perfectly.

I'm on EndeavourOS (Arch Linux) using repository Steam, KDE Plasma and Pipewire. I've tried all the different proton versions (experimental, 9, 8, 7, 3, etc) without success. Maybe I could solve it by removing pipewire but I don't think it's worth worsening the entire OS, since it's only about these two titles.

Q:

  • The problem seems to not appear on other distros, like Debian (maybe due to different packages / pulseaudio?).
  • Coincidentally it only happens with these two SumoDigital games, could proton be missing some component commonly used in these games?
  • Since I can't find any relevant solutions online, I assume that the problem only exists with this type of Bluetooth audio device.

[edit] AtM I "solved" it by connecting the speaker via cable.

Is Pegasus the best Steam alternative for launching games with a gamepad? (pegasus-frontend.org)
 

I'm sorting out my collection of native games and ROMs, Pegasus requires some forethought to customize the collections as I want but it seems like the best option. Do you know of interesting and equally customizable alternatives like Pegasus that are not proprietary and are comfy with the gamepad?

Can I launch modern games thru RetroArch? (slrpnk.net)
 

It’s just me or RetroArch developed the best FLOSS alternative to proprietary UI? You have a nice overlay, CRT shaders, bezels, some netplay function, customizable interface. All of this completely free and super fast.

Wouldn’t be nice to also launch non-emulated games from here?

Bazzite KDE: I have a stupid bug that zooms the mouse cursor (Solved) (slrpnk.net)

The cursor randomly enlarges every now and then. Anyone else experiencing the same problem? If so, have you solved it?

Could this be due to using different containers? I use flatpaks for everything apart from a few exceptions where I use distrobox, and in these the Plasma cursor is slightly different, but it doesn't justify the bug but just a different version of the cursor.

Maybe using Syncthing or MPD? I'm searching something to keep/share my votes or even maybe listen counts for desktop and mobile. Also it would be nice to create a backup for these data.

I love the ViMusic/RiMusic UI, it's something different that works also better than standard material designs.

How to add RetroArch games on Steam? (slrpnk.net)
 

crosspostato da: https://slrpnk.net/post/8602499

My stuff:

  • ArchLinux KDE, amdgpu, vulkan, wayland
  • RetroArch installed from official repos
  • cores installed via RetroArch utility

I'm using this command but it results in a graphical glitch when launched from steam:

retroarch -L "path/to/core" "path/to/game"

Possible causes I found:

  • the command may not work if the game is a .cue file
  • loading a game from Steam via RetroArch 64bit can be a problem(?)
  • cores installed with the utility are in ".info" and not in the ".so" extension

spoilerI haven't tried Steam Rom Manager as it doesn't solve my doubt and in any case I'm not sure it can solve the problem even if set correctly.
