I get what you are saying and in no way take offense. And I’m not saying that people’s dislike of Microsoft is unwarranted. They have made some exceedingly poor decisions over the years, and it has repeatedly come back to haunt them.

I’ve actually been fairly impressed with the quality, given that it isn’t being rendered natively. It’s not the same experience as when I play in my theater, but it more than gets the job done when I want to play elsewhere in the house.

This is definitely the reason. There’s no technical reason for these sources not to work.

Rome wasn’t built in a day either. Give it time, they’re working on it.

I had always declined the MSRT previously (I didn’t hide them , I just ignored them), but did end up installing July’s version while installing the other updates I needed before Win 10 would download. I’m not sure if it was required or not.

No problem, glad i could save you the headache.

There isn’t going to be any monthly or annual payments for Windows 10 end users. Full stop.

Glitchy doens’t even begin to say it. For those of us who run an SLI/multimonitor configuration it’s pretty much a 3 ring shit show. I’m accustomed to wonky Nvidia drivers, but i haven’t experienced anything quite like this in years.

Don’t run the troubleshooter. Try this instead:

I think you misunderstood my point. All of the complaints you have made are exactly in line with the reasons why I don’t find wireless charging to be “amazing”. The only real benefit to it is that people don’t have to futz around with a smallish wire. Otherwise, it generally has limited range, is finicky about…

I agree with you completely, except for the times when it isn’t. Which unfortunately is most of the time.

Amazing? No, not usually. Convenient? Sure.

Yeah this is getting disabled pretty much first thing. I’m not a sharing kind of person.

I guess adding features like this to a monitor adds a certain amount of convenience, but I wouldn’t pay any kind of premium for it. Presumably when I’m sitting at my desk I already have access to either a: outlets or b: USB ports.

I’ve already been on the fence about upgrading my desktop, but your experience with your multi-mon setup has convinced me that it might be in my best interest to wait a bit.

Chris, what format does it encode in? Do you have any options to adjust bitrate, etc.?

This is the best way. My nephew can go fuck himself. My best friend can go fuck himself (particularly if he wants to use my phone to check Facebook). The stranger in the street can go fuck himself too. Hell, I don’t even let my wife touch my phone.

Relax sweetheart. I know you can check that way, I gave the instructions that I did for a reason. Believe it or not there is occasionally method to my madness.

If you want to be sure that you received the update:

They don’t especially need it to be powerful, efficient, or elegant. They need it to produce a picture on your TV, with a certain bare minimum of additional functionality (however poorly implemented) in order to check off the boxes on a features list for marketing purposes. Once they have achieved that it’s mission…
