We are considering replacing our 58" 1080p plasma TV. It has minor to moderate screen burn in from CCTV and hoping the included scrolling program fixes it, but also looking at a new TV. Good upscaling is the most important feature as we still have mostly lower quality videos. Likewise we play ACNH every day so a TV that does good upscaling of the Nintendo Switch is ideal.

If you have any TV recommendations from personal experience, please post it. There is no rush to buy, we are very early in the product research process, and have not yet decided a price range. I did read the budget TV brands do not do a very good job of upscaling. However if ACNH players are using 4K (60 + inch) and happy with their set up, we would like to learn more about it.

Thanks

Joe

 

Overall quality was OK but the picture did not have bright, easy to see colors, we struggled for a several days, and found out two pieces were missing. We bought two FX Schmid puzzles from the thrift shop, this one looked easier. Good News: yesterday we picked up some of the Wysocki brothers puzzles and will be doing those before even thinking about the other FX Schmid puzzle we now own.

 
 

Jane Wooster Scott - we think most of her puzzles are fun to do

 
 

Good puzzle, reminded me my favorite "Footbridge" was in the movie Music Man

Love it

On edit : I found Pixelfed works pretty good for posting videos on Lemmy, and Lemmy allows you to edit the post to use the link to the video.

Connect actually worked to post the picture, but then gave me an error that Lemmy World was shut down for maintenance.

 

Having a lot of trouble posting today, more than yesterday, trying different app -Connect for Lemmy, seems faster but not sure about postings

We are new as well, most of the puzzle pictures we posted on here were completed previously, we are not fast. The puzzle we are working on now is going on several days, we usually do a little before going to bed. We have an old digital pocket camera I use for pictures. Uploading the pictures is our cloud backup.

We never could get a seed using the weather, we were always wrong. We watch for shooting stars, and it is best on a busy night. Usually takes 4 or 5 bursts in a row, after you enter the several burst (usually 5 shooting stars a single minute time frame ) the program allows you to also use the time between let's say you have burst at 7:15, 7:18, 7:50 7:55 you add those there is an option to use the no star time between and it will record that as well and then most times it will come up with seeds. The first time we did it the seed times seemed wrong, but the problem was I did not go into the details to see the actual times. According to the website you can get a seed in a half hour under ideal conditions but most times it takes a couple hours.

One time it took longer because I forgot to clear my browser cache and I think it was using some previously entered info from another island we did because after I cleared the cache and reentered the data it found the exact seed and only that seed.

Originally we did not have Nintendo Switch on line and only Pear Island, we did everything the hard way, taking turns playing, diving for hours to pay off loans. As with other new players we did not even know about vaulting polls, wet suits or even how to catch wasps. We went to mystery islands and would try to figure out how to get to the higher levels. After reading on line we learned a lot, and got the Nintendo Online account which made things much easier, and having 2 islands made it easier yet, but at times I miss the old days with a new island (but not enough to give up everything) and that is why we reset a few times.

One of my regrets this time is not making a video of Tom Nook the morning he was freezing and shaking while making the morning announcement, I liked that as much watching Apollo being scared by wasps.

Setting up a weather seed is time consuming, but nice when it is done. We use the ACNH Pocket guide for android, it has turnip tracker and weather seed incorporated in it.

We like puzzles with nice, distinct colors, and Ravensburger puzzles usually do not have as much glare as the cheaper brands. We get most of our puzzles from thrift shops, rarely get Ravensburger quality.
