![]() ![]() I might just make that part of the A/B or A/B/C comparison. Maybe my misguided opinion but now that you mention it I think I have a optical splitter somewhere around here. Active Splitter with no Quality Loss on Audio Split 1 SPDIF/Toslink Signal to 3 x SPDIF/Toslink signals to connect audio to several areas or digital receivers. COAX SPDIF output for digital audio extension. I believe this would also apply to an optical splitter similar to the one you suggest. Converts coaxial or Toslink digital audio input to analog L/R and 3.5mm audio output. The splitters distribute HDTV antenna/digital cable and coax network signals. Passive splitters are not powered and do not amplify the signal, but they are cheaper than active splitters. The Vault2i ALSO has an optical OUT but like many others I believe the sound quality is not up to the coaxial. We offer high performance digital splitters for use with MOCA-capable networks. There are two types of coax splitters: passive and active. That was my thought going the y-splitter rout. It may not work, but it won't hurt anything either (just don't use cables over 15 meters, and even that won't hurt but you may not get a signal).Ĭan you use optical for the test? There are S/PDIF optical splitters for a few $ (Monoprice has one). Our 8K HDMI Switching Splitter is getting some attention We are excited about the first 8K distribution product from the Evolution line too. So, you might get away with a Y-splitter that you suggested, but I would get a cheapo - the reflection issue will overwhelm any advantage of fancy copper for your tests. ![]() At the frequencies of SPDIF (about 3 MHz), the wavelength in cable is roughly 70 meters - the reflected phase will be nearly the same as the outgoing phase for 1 meter cable back at the source (meaning no problem). If you don't match impedances you will have a reflection problem (like light reflecting air to water, but less dramatic). Learn more about Vanco International at cable type splitter is best (but the one above won't pass SPDIF signals - the low end starts at 5 MHz). Low quality coax splitters can adversely affect the video signal, causing excessive attenuation of the signal (signal loss) and multiple reflections which can cause ghosting (shadows on the picture).

![]() If you're design-minded, then the Pixel might not be for you.Īlso, the day before the launch, it was revealed that Google suffered a major data breach related to Google +, its failed social network, which it didn't disclose this for months for fear of a public backlash. Also the Pixel 3XL design, whilst improved with an all-glass frame, isn't the most exciting when up against the thin bezels of the Note 9 and iPhone XS Max. It's fair to say that it's not to everyone's taste, and it does seem larger than other phones with notches on the market. It feels almost wrong to not mention the notch, which a friend described as "deeper than a conversation with Donny Darko". Up against the top tiers of the most recently released competition from Apple and Samsung, the Pixel 3 comes out $100 cheaper. Not cheap, but cheaper than the competitionĪ strange choice perhaps considering the Pixel 3XL price has increased from last year, but prices can not be viewed in a vacuum. Sometimes these features are ported over to less heavily skinned Android alternatives, but they come to Pixels first. Then there’s the tailor-made features like Duplex and call screening, alongside Google Lens and other AI-based functionality. The original Pixel and Pixel XL have already been updated to Android Pie, too. The Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL have already been updated to Pie. For instance, Android Oreo, released in August 2017, is now on only 15% of devices over a year later (which may also be down to Oreo not supporting older devices). The difference between quick and immediate updates may be a matter of months -yes, months - from some OEMs. The most obvious example is that Pixel owners get OS updates first and pretty much instantly - including security updates. Made By Google is an attempt to rectify this with its Pixel brand, and to some extent it works. Android, on the other hand, has to be retrofitted onto lots of different devices. ![]() One of the reasons people often say Apple’s products ‘just work’ is because the hardware and software are designed in tandem. ‘Made by Google’ has more depth to it than a seemingly meaningless slogan. Both screen calling and Duplex will be coming to Pixel phones first. Indeed, it’s archetypal of how Google sees its hardware, a gateway to innovative services - a true personal assistant, rather than just a audible search engine. If you don’t think too deeply about deceiving callers with a human-sounding AI, and you haven’t consumed anything produced by Charlie Brooker, then this is a very clever piece of kit. Not by sending them straight to voicemail, rather the AI speaking to the caller and transcribing the phone call to you in real time, so you can determine if it’s spam or genuine without ever answering the call. The Super Res Zoom will need to be tested properly because digital zooms are rarely - if never - good.Īs part of its slightly concerning Duplex software, Google has introduced a call screening feature that will intercept spam calls. Night Shot, on the other hand, improves low-light photography (a mini arms race between Apple, Samsung and Google) thanks to larger micron pixels and optical image stabilization. Top shot provides you with more than one frame to choose from when you take a picture, and even suggests the best shot. For example, the visual core it developed with intel has received an upgrade and boasts new features like, Top Shot and Night Sight. The question is though, why is it only available on the selfie camera?Įlsewhere, Google has tweaked and refined what was already last year’s best-in-class camera. Simply having the option adds functionality you didn’t know you needed. Google has very kindly presumed you have friends and adorned the front of the Pixel 3XL with two camera sensors, one of which is a wide angle lens. I suspect this will be quietly popular, as it was on the LG G5 back in 2016. I’d chose a (slightly) worse camera on the Pixel with Google AI over a better camera without the service. It’s the service that makes Google’s camera, not necessarily the hardware. ![]() ![]() The AI that auto tags images and makes them searchable is good, but shared albums, auto editing pictures, auto deleting duplicates and more is part of what sets Pixel phones apart from the herd. It has also created additional functionality that improves the experience of smartphone photography. ![]() ![]() ![]() There is still no precise release date for the western release of the game. Both seem to be Japanese exclusives (along with the previously announced Kainé costume) at the moment but may be released to the west. Some other minor news was the addition of a Caim costume and Furiae costume. It can be heard on the official website, along with two other newly released tracks.įinally, many of the remaining characters have had their stories translated and available for reading. The game's full soundtrack will not be released until January 22nd next year.Īnother thing worth bringing up is a couple of interesting interviews with Drakengard 3 producer Takamasa Shiba, in which he discusses the target audience of the game, the gameplay and the issue of censorship (at this point it seems there's still a chance something will be censored, let's hope not).Ī video showcasing the dragon gameplay as well as Mikhail's kawaii~ voice has also been shown.Īnother piece of news that's bound to make any fan of NieR's soundtrack happy is the confirmation that Emi Evans, the main lyricist and singer for NieR, will be contributing to the soundtrack. Drakengard 3 also known as Drag-On Dragoon 3 in Japan, is the third title in the Drakengard series. The full version of the song used in the announcement trailer will be released on the 18th of December. You can listen to the full version of the trailer song here. synopsis (EN), Drag On Dragoon 3 aka Drakengard 3 is a cult classic. Yes, even video game commercials now have difficulty settings. ![]() I guess we should start off with the most recent trailer which is basically a fusion of the first PV and the announcement trailer with some new scenes.Īlong with that trailer were two TV commercials for the game in Japan (where the game releases on the 19th of December). When she saw the disgusted Twitter reactions to Decadus's novel, Eishima felt weirdly apologetic.It's been more than a month since Drakengard 3 (Drag-On Dragoon 3 in Japan) was officially announced to be receiving a western release and there has been a bunch of new information revealed since then. So she has to imagine herself through Decadus and many other character's perspectives while she writes based on the brief outline she is given. Jun Eishima, despite being the writer for the character novels, is often left in the dark about the details of Drakengard because Yoko will not always tell her everything she wants to know. Producer Takamasa Shiba remarked that they wanted three main male archetypes, and Decadus fits the "middle-aged man" category.

Between year 998 and 999, Four launched a crusade against elven pirates who were fleeing from the conflict. It also ends up interfering with his duties to Zero, who at one point chastises him for his repetitive requests for "punishment".Ĭharacter designer Kimihiko Fujisaka has said in a Famitsu interview that the disciples were not a main concern for the development team and their designs were approved rather quickly. Drakengard 3 Prior to the rise of the Intoners, the Lords of the Land attempted to subjugate Elves for unknown reasons. He even takes the visible signs of sexual arousal as a shame. While he tries to keep his preferences mostly under cover, he often lets some remark slip out, alerting the others. His original desire to serve Four was strengthened when she asked if he would die for her, an offer which he found very arousing. ![]() However, alongside this, he has a darker side: he is an extreme masochist who turns pain and agony into his personal reward, whether it be in battle or as part of his personal duties to Intoners. He is also the one disciple that Zero doesn't actively lash out at, except when she is speaking to the group in general. However, even when in the presence of his former Intoner, his loyalty to Zero does not waver. He is also loyal in a way that none of the other disciples are: until she is killed, he is fanatically loyal to Four, and shows a similar loyalty with Zero. NineEraser (member since 2012) reviewed on 12/20/17. While it can be a turnoff for many, if you’re in the mood for a dark fantasy with a few twists, interesting characters, and some black comedy thrown in. Even when he is angry, he refrains from ever swearing or belittling his opponent, putting him in sharp contrast with Dito or Cent. The story is the make or break for the game. He is described as a "perfect gentlemen" with his duties as a disciple, and always speaks in a polite and mannered style. When compared to the other disciples, Decadus has a fairly normal personality. The end of the world may be nigh, and yet we sit here wracked with inaction. Drakengards Relationship to The NieR Universe The first Drakengard game released in 2003 as a unique blend of gameplay elements from Ace Combat and Dynasty Warriors 2. ![]() |
