Too far from computer to TV.

Chrome cast (or similar)

[JHolmesJr]

Stumbled across a tv series called 

The Flatey Enigma (Flateyjargátan)

Sounded like one of those low rent brit shows so nearly 

gave it a miss.

 

Glad I didnt as it's actually an Icellandic Noir series with a great start.

4 episodes on BBC...only ep 1 is out.

 

Also, Il Traditore...about Tomaso Buscetta, the capo who ratted put the entire cosa nostra

including Toto Riina.

Stick with it for a few more episodes.

Missing a few lobes, Brady Hartsfield's brain has been kept alive for research so there's a good chance of some action direct from the lab jar.

 

A few cash miles left so AT&T will scrape the barrel dry with this one.

Glad to say that Top Boy is returning this week. Netflix picked it up and have made a new season.  

Mentioned seasons 1 and 2 a few years ago now.

Show was surprisingly cancelled in 2013 after winning a heap of awards.

Think it's a bit like a UK version of The Wire

 

If you haven't seen any of the earlier episodes, do yourself a favour and have a look.

Four episodes in each of the first two seasons.

 

 

Man, I missed this .. well recommended, I’m on S1, not just the plot and acting - soundtrack by Brian Eno.

 

 Thanks.

Ahhhh .. it gets more interesting

The director was the same guy who did last years ‘white boy rick’ which was pretty dark, and also ‘71 which I haven’t seen, but I have the soundtrack to by David Holmes.

Looks like a busy week!

Crime and Punishment

 

This new 6 part series is getting excellent reviews.
Episode 1 is put there.

Summary: Captures the work of police, probation, prison, prosecution and parole all coping with difficult

cases - managing risk to the public and themselves, with limited resources.

 

 

[faraday]

This is very interesting, a reformed Glaswegian gangster, is interviewed by Shaun Attwood.

 

It's really worth watching.

 

 

 

[champers]

Saw Tarantino's new movie today, Once Upon a Time ... in Hollywood. Di Caprio and Pitt are the leads and their relationship is the main storyline. Both were excellent.

Not sure if the film lives up to the hype but well worth a watch if only for the gorgeous Margot Robbie in hot pants and mini skirts.

[JHolmesJr]

Excellent new 6 part doco from Sundance Tv called "No one saw a thing'

 

You can not make this up.

[Will27]

Criminal - new one by Netflix.

Should be available Friday or Saturday.

A strong cast and quite a different concept.

Summary: Groundbreaking procedural crime drama comprising 12 stories set in four different countries: France, Spain, Germany and the UK. It takes place exclusively within the confines of a police interview suite. This stripped-down, cat-and-mouse drama focuses on the intense mental conflict between detectives and suspects.

Have you thought of moving them closer?

 

Seriously tho media players been out for years playing this HVEC format, buy them for less than 50USD these days.

Details of media player that plays HEVC? I've been using media players for the last 10 years, haven't seen one that plays HEVC, not for less than $50 anyway. TV and computer in separate rooms, so no.

I use "HD Video Converter" from Wonderfox:

 

It is completely free in the standard version, download from here:

 

https://www.videoconverterfactory.com/free-hd-video-converter/

 

I upgraded to the "Pro" version because you can put more than one file into a queue to process whereas in the standard version you have to load them one at a time. I have converted thousands of files usung this app, although I tend to use it for compressing files by reducing resolution (say from 1080 to 480) and by converting from MP4/AVI/MPV/H264 to H265 (HEVC). I have shrunk files in total by about 1TB and am still at it.

 

This software is extremely simple to use (fortunately for me).
