CoreELEC can do it on Dolby Vision certified devices if you’re looking for a open source solution.

Is it a Surface laptop?

Haven’t had any Vertex explosions or shader compiling issues in Wilds but I also assume that’s Nvidia related.

Do you have those issues in their other titles like their newer Resident Evil games as well?

I had the same issue with PINCE not restoring the correct memory addresses on start.

Although I think I’m doing something wrong and the memory in modern games is just dynamic so the correct location can’t be found with just the memory addresses. Haven’t looked if it is possible yet but I assume you need some pattern matching to find the right address, not sure if PINCE can do that yet.

Yes, that’s still a bit annoying unfortunately.

Editing the fstab to properly mount a network share also currently has no UI available in KDE and has to be done manually.

What’s the problem?

Played Wilds on launch and had pretty much no issues other than the game freezing for a second or two every hour or so.

On the other hand, my friend on Windows would crash from time to time, which I didn’t experience.

Although it should be noted that neither Wilds nor Dragon’s Dogma are technological marvels. They run bad everywhere.

Cheat Engine is a thing on Linux!

Game Conqueror is bundled for a lot of distros but PINCE is my favorite.

but to discover it on my other linux machine is always a chore that involves editing a few config files and just kinda randomly poking around until it works.

What’s your desktop environment? On KDE you can just enter smb://serverhost/path in the Dolphin navigation bar and it will open it.

The first one I think is a fundamental limitation in that display preferences by default is per-user. Maybe this makes it work for you? https://feddit.online/post/1350756/comment/6636228

I don’t really have this problem anymore since I got rid of my projector which advertised a resolution it couldn’t handle. Had to login into the void since the login screen never showed up. Looks like this might be fixable nowadays.

The 24h clock might be similar - check your system-wide locale.

The locale is set to American English but the time format is set to German, something the lock screen can handle but SDDM cannot. I also tried applying the Plasma settings to SDDM a few times but it doesn’t really change anything.

It always chooses the default highest resolution, (which may not work on some devices with faulty EDID), does not respect the Wayland/X11 choice, has a long pause when going from login screen to desktop and does not support 24h clocks.

Just to name a few.

Phones usually don’t do pixel shifting since they lack the extra pixels on the edge to shift the content around.

Pixel shifting is done entirely on the monitors firmware nowadays, no OS intervention necessary.

Phone AMOLED screens are entirely different beasts compared to QD-OLED/WOLED on TVs and monitors.

Phone OLEDs are much more dense, run much hotter and brighter, most also lack pixel shifting and many even pixel refreshing.

I also had some severe burn-in on phones.

To quote Rtings:

under normal circumstances, with mixed usage, burn-in isn’t an issue

Even if your task bar is on 70% of the time, you’re not going to see any significant burn-in.

The feature recently added to the PS5’s Dualsense that allows them to pair with multiple devices was such a huge QoL change.

Does that only apply to playstations or can you pair to multiple PCs? Might have to upgrade then.

AND per app focus stealing prevention settings.

It does? BRB, putting Steam on the lowest level possible so I can turn everything else back up.

What makes you think a USB-C to headphone jack adapter stops working after a year? There’s the same circuit in there that does the DAC like in a phone headphone jack.

The EU store ships from the EU with warranty, support, etc. for quite a hefty premium. I ordered from the global store which ships from Hong Kong. Paid ~500€ a year ago (including taxes).

The display looks great and mine doesn’t have the stuck pixel or the buggy lines issue you experienced

They have since fixed that.

though I do have very noticeable ghosting artifacts

Unfortunately just the nature of the technology. If you’re just reading, DU4:3 works the best, for manga I use the full G:4 mode with screen refresh for every page flip enabled.

I wrote some custom profiles for each (Default, Book, Manga, Notes, Notes (Landscape) which I have on my desktop, I can send you the scripts if you want.

Couldn’t find a good way to use browsers on it yet since they all smooth scroll instead of jumping in fixed intervals.

I left mine running over night with KOReader open, Nextcloud in background, no suspend and it took 20 hours and 10 minutes to go from 100% to 10%.

As @poweruser@lemmy.sdf.org wrote, there is a pretty significant phantom drain where it loses about 15% per day when suspended.
