[QUOTE=garychencool;43504675]What should sound "better"? 96kbps mp3 or 40kbps aac?[/QUOTE]
AAC is a much more efficient compressor, so most likely 40 kbps aac. I've listened to 32 kbps aac streams that you would have sworn were 128 kbps MP3. But that also depends on the content of the audio as well.
I think I'm finally done with the timelapse video.
I'm trying to think of a title for it.
[QUOTE=benjgvps;43504685]No kidding, there are times when I'm working on my car where I think "I'd rather take apart ten iBook G3s over this".
I had a great time putting in my new JBL door speakers. I blew out 3 plastic clips, spent over an hour total searching for the metal clip that holds on my passenger door window crank when it flew off out of sight, and I needed my dad to give me a hand getting the door panels back on. But now it sounds fantastic, though I'm tempted to get a cheap sub off Kijiji.[/QUOTE]
Mine was easy, since I was only doing the rears. Three bolts and unplug the harness and it's good to go. These Kenwoods were literally "bolt into the mount, strip the new harness and wire it to the old one, plug in the speakers and go." But getting to the bolts, which are in the trunk, is a pain.
I want to do doors next, but I'm utterly convinced I would have the same problem as you. Everyone makes disassembling doors sound easy, but the people who talk about it are usually experts.
Anyone else have chrome display only white pages on all windows randomly?
I have chrome do a lot of weird things. It's really not the browser it used to be.

The video on Youtube of the guy getting the door panels back on made it look easy. Though I tried myself for a good half hour before bringing the door panels in to warm up (It was -35°C outside and I was in the garage) and waiting for my dad to get home from work so I'd have an extra pair of hands. Once I did have an extra pair of hands, they went on in a couple minutes.
The ones I had were straight forward as well, though since there was no harness included I just soldered the old wires to the new ones.
Now back to computers:
Would the AMD FX-8320 be decent to run a bunch of VMs on? My server currently has a Q8400. I'm mostly upgrading for DDR3 so I can get 16GB of RAM with the option of going to 32GB later, but would I be better off with a different CPU?
I think it might have been the recent drivers. when I turned on SLI it started happening.
Any way of fixing the FOV in Halo CE? I tried Widescreen fixer but it doesn't seem to work.
My halo is version 1.09
1.09 broke almost all the fixes in the past. 1.08 was best patch.
[QUOTE=paul simon;43504823]In many cases they'd sound similiar, and in some cases the aac could sound better.
I'm not sure why you're asking this, but if you can afford 96kbps, then go with 96kbps aac.[/QUOTE]

pretty sure it has for a while. not been too long ago since I played it under windows 8 either

They managed to conjure up 600ms of extra latency, and sometimes there's 15-second spikes where data just simply doesn't get there.

did you try compatibility mode?
[QUOTE=~Kiwi~v2;43506750]yep went from 7 to xp sp3[/QUOTE]
you could try 98 or 95 instead. I think I had it working on 98
Or 2000

More than twice the money compared to last year. 100k viewers on twitch at one point, and pretty much top stream on twitch for the entire event (during most of AwfulGDQ there were more people watching awful games on one stream than there were people watching League Of Legends/ Dota 2 on all of those games' streams). Hell, multiple world records too.
What a fucking event. I can't name a single run as my favorite.

I didn't had to turn any compatibility on.
Are there any other fixes for FOV or can i downgrade my game?

Isn't that comparison unfair, because AFAIK AAC always has a VBR whereas MP3 96kbps is CBR?

Okay, so use MP3 V7.

I remember when I read it the first time, I forgot it was supposed to be a joke most of the way through.
Why are you guys talking about irrelevant audio codecs when Ogg Vorbis exists.
Muh freedom.
Pfft, Raw PCM data is the only way. Storage is so cheap and data rates so high, compression is irrelevant.
If you consider that a few blank tapes storing 90 minutes of audio each would cost you ~£8 in 1990. Today that £8 would buy you 177.3GB, Based on a 1TB drive I found for £45.11.
That 177.3GB could store roughly 45 hours of Raw audio sampled at a bit depth of 24 bit with a sample rate of 192khz.
Ah, Technology. I am, of course, being silly. Compression certainly has its place.
It's so cheap these days I don't even bother transcoding when I rip a DVD (18p of space) or Bluray film (£2 of space) to my NAS.
