We haven't figured out our HDR issues. 13 00:01:10,799 --> 00:01:14,880 >> Slight bad news. >> Bad news. First thing in the morning. 14 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:20,159 >> Yep. >> But I think I have a plan. >> I'll be back in like 30 minutes. 15 00:01:18,320 --> 00:01:23,439 >> 30 minutes. Oh, dude. I was really counting on you to help me with the 16 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:28,080 aesthetics. >> Oh, yeah. I'll be back for that. >> Natalie is not even here yet. She's 17 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:32,640 buying snackies. >> We got the goods. The 12-pack Mountain 18 00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:35,439 Dew and a pack of Cool Ranch Doritos. We still have about $2 left. I think this 19 00:01:34,400 --> 00:01:40,640 is going to be good. I'm going to bribe the judges with these gamer snacks. >> We picked up all our stuff last night. 20 00:01:38,479 --> 00:01:43,840 >> I went to a furniture store and I went to their outlet section and it was like 21 00:01:42,479 --> 00:01:48,399 literally a scrapyard. They had like extra broken pieces everywhere and I picked up what I could. Picked up some 22 00:01:46,479 --> 00:01:53,600 wall art for cheap. Picked up some of this. shelf. >> Picked up some plant and picked up this 23 00:01:52,079 --> 00:01:57,759 from the thrift store and then some more floating shelves. Fake plants and a 24 00:01:55,680 --> 00:02:03,200 candle. A basket and another throw pillows. >> I found some stuff. I did get that art. 25 00:02:01,360 --> 00:02:07,840 There you go. That was like 10 bucks. So, whatever. This was a find. And it's 26 00:02:06,320 --> 00:02:11,039 a little mini fridge. Oh, you didn't show 27 00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:13,920 off your the the comic. >> One of the TV things that we're watching 28 00:02:13,040 --> 00:02:18,000 is Adventure Time. >> And then the last thing was just a 29 00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:23,200 dollar store run. Just a bunch of different snacks and stuff. Uh, 30 00:02:22,480 --> 00:02:28,080 >> I have a better one. >> We'll explain that later. This is probably just going in the garbage. Oh, 31 00:02:26,239 --> 00:02:33,200 yeah. The mouse. It's like actually in pretty good condition. >> Okay. 32 00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:37,280 >> How long is this going to take? >> Probably a while, unfortunately. So, if 33 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:43,360 you can work around us to stick stuff on the walls, do it. >> The projector not being mounted makes me 34 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:47,519 want to cry in a pile of sadness, but um, we'll figure it out. First thing 35 00:02:45,680 --> 00:02:51,519 we're going to do today is see if we can get the PlayStation running directly to 36 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:56,640 the TV. This receiver doesn't pass through HDR. So, right now, yeah, our 37 00:02:54,160 --> 00:03:00,640 movies and games look pretty good, but we're not getting HDR. Wow. Only two 38 00:02:59,599 --> 00:03:03,519 HDMIs on it. >> I know. It's so budget. 39 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:08,480 >> Weak sauce. >> At least it has ARC. >> Okay, here we go. 40 00:03:05,920 --> 00:03:12,239 >> It's hard to tell if HDR is on or not, or if it's just the crappy panel. 41 00:03:10,159 --> 00:03:15,440 >> Maybe try flipping HDR off and then flip it back on. Okay, 42 00:03:13,760 --> 00:03:20,400 >> I'm pretty sure this is on. >> Panel might be fine, but our backlight 43 00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:25,200 is does not have full array local dimming, so it is what it is. 44 00:03:22,159 --> 00:03:26,480 >> Yeah, I still want to validate the sound 45 00:03:25,200 --> 00:03:31,280 because I didn't look at that too closely. There we go. 46 00:03:28,879 --> 00:03:36,959 >> That looks like ass. >> It does. >> Is Adventure Time not in HD on Prime? I 47 00:03:34,560 --> 00:03:39,280 wonder if the trial is SD. >> It shouldn't be. 48 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:42,940 >> Should we put a Blu-ray in to check and make sure the audio is working and then maybe you have Dark Knight? 49 00:03:41,599 --> 00:03:46,039 >> Sure. 50 00:03:46,799 --> 00:03:52,480 All right, >> this is good here. >> I think we're good. 51 00:03:50,239 --> 00:03:56,879 >> The print failed on the TV feet. I need to make something that is low profile, 52 00:03:54,879 --> 00:04:02,400 black, and hides in it. We have these shelves that we took out. The idea is to 53 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:08,599 cut these into something and basically precariously balance the TV on this. It 54 00:04:04,879 --> 00:04:08,599 should be good enough, right? 55 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:15,680 And this is our new feet. We're going to put one like this, one like this, and 56 00:04:13,680 --> 00:04:21,519 the TV is just going to rest on this thin piece on both sides. They are ugly, 57 00:04:18,959 --> 00:04:24,400 but they should work. >> It's not going to be super stable. 58 00:04:22,960 --> 00:04:28,160 >> Oh, man. Really, Sebastian? >> Time constraints. It's my best work. 59 00:04:26,240 --> 00:04:30,240 >> Oh, dude. This is sketch. >> Not earthquake rated. 60 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:34,080 >> Nope. >> Okay. >> It's low profile. 61 00:04:32,880 --> 00:04:37,520 >> It's black. >> Mhm. >> Is Do you have a Sharpie? >> Pens are tools, right? 62 00:04:36,639 --> 00:04:42,560 >> Pens are tools. >> Okay. So, let's just give it some Sharpie and then >> Sharpie and Yeah. fill in that spot. 63 00:04:40,960 --> 00:04:46,160 >> Okay. >> Oh god. >> Are you putting it on studs? 64 00:04:45,520 --> 00:04:49,919 >> Oh god. >> Are you stripping the screw? >> No. Can I borrow this? 65 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:56,000 >> You can borrow that. Yeah, absolutely. >> Oh, okay. 66 00:04:56,000 --> 00:05:00,160 >> Does this look okay? It's kind of >> It's very very droopy, 67 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:07,199 >> saggy. >> It's upside down. Now it's upside down. >> Oh, cut all of that out. 68 00:05:05,199 --> 00:05:12,110 >> You're too far to the left. Yeah, but if I manipulate it anymore, I'm I'm 69 00:05:09,039 --> 00:05:16,479 concerned the mount will like snap. 70 00:05:16,479 --> 00:05:22,240 >> Luke, I need you. >> Thank you. 71 00:05:19,759 --> 00:05:26,080 >> Just going to grab one of these. >> Sure. 72 00:05:24,800 --> 00:05:30,400 >> At a certain point, we're just going to accept it. Yeah. >> Plastic knives to the rescue. 73 00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:36,000 >> Sammy. >> Yeah, >> you're good. >> Yeah. Thank you. 74 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:39,520 >> That's good for this part. We're going to move the couch back. All right, let's get this out of here. 75 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:43,280 >> Uh, Dan, we're all set on cables. Anything extra I can take out? Start finishing it off. 76 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:46,240 >> Yeah, I don't know how to mount it. Do you know how to mount this stuff? >> Yeah. Yeah. So, one here and one there. 77 00:05:45,680 --> 00:05:51,360 >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> Sebastian, do you want to get Nat to 78 00:05:50,000 --> 00:05:54,960 help you with the wall panels? I trust you two way more than No offense. Um, I 79 00:05:53,919 --> 00:05:59,520 trust either of us. >> Yeah, we can do that. Do you want to do the lights? >> Oh, no. Do they have a controller or do 80 00:05:58,639 --> 00:06:04,000 we need Wi-Fi? >> It says it doesn't need Wi-Fi and it has a remote. 81 00:06:01,840 --> 00:06:07,199 >> Yes. I'm on this then after I'm done sharping. That looks so much better 82 00:06:05,520 --> 00:06:10,199 though. It doesn't really like stand out anymore. 83 00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:17,600 You know what? That actually is not bad. 84 00:06:15,840 --> 00:06:20,720 >> Did the Blu-ray come with a DVD or something? Because this looks like Butt. 85 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:26,080 >> Says Blu-ray. >> Uh, >> we do have alternatives because 86 00:06:24,479 --> 00:06:30,479 theoretically it should be on here, too. So, this should come 87 00:06:27,759 --> 00:06:34,160 >> in UHD after we get 2 minutes of ads. >> I can tell you the resolution of the ad 88 00:06:32,080 --> 00:06:37,520 sure isn't UHD. Oh man, there's so much compression 89 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:42,639 blocking. >> I know. >> Can we see the Blu-ray again? >> Yep. >> Maybe I was sitting too close before. 90 00:06:41,280 --> 00:06:46,160 Let's see. >> Yeah. Keep this. Way less compression 91 00:06:45,600 --> 00:06:52,160 artifacts. >> It's a little softer because it's 1080, but it is way less compression. 92 00:06:50,319 --> 00:06:55,199 >> Yeah, these are the 3D printed backs that Justin did. Stands out on the white 93 00:06:53,759 --> 00:06:59,440 one, obviously, but it looks pretty good. A couple of them had like ruined 94 00:06:57,360 --> 00:07:02,400 thumb stick tops. Both the top left. This the person we bought this from must 95 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:07,680 have played a specific game. doesn't 100% look or feel perfect, but it looks 96 00:07:05,759 --> 00:07:11,520 and feels a lot better than it did. So, I'll take that. >> Um, Justin, do you want to start getting 97 00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:15,599 the controllers charged? I don't know where it happened. >> No, they're double A's. We're good. >> Yeah, they're double A's. 98 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:20,360 >> Oh, thank these are honestly not getting any cleaner. >> Into the wire basket. 99 00:07:17,360 --> 00:07:20,360 >> Okay. 100 00:07:20,400 --> 00:07:25,039 >> Wa. Wow. >> Dan, what >> do you mind if we put the couch in 101 00:07:24,639 --> 00:07:31,840 place? >> No, I need it in place now. That would be great. >> Yeah. Okay. >> I got to start doing my audio testing. 102 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:37,199 Whoa. >> Yeah. Watch the projector. >> Yeah. Sorry. >> Being held by Hilton Dreams. 103 00:07:35,680 --> 00:07:41,120 >> Tilted now. >> Oh, I'm sorry. 104 00:07:39,120 --> 00:07:46,080 >> This is the uh We're making designs >> on the go. >> Yep. 105 00:07:46,080 --> 00:07:52,400 >> I hope they look okay when they're dried. 106 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:54,240 That improves the homeiness factor immensely. 107 00:07:53,280 --> 00:07:58,240 >> Good call, Linus. >> How's the clap edge right now? 108 00:07:56,879 --> 00:08:01,360 >> You can get the door. I think it's actually bouncing off the ceiling the most. 109 00:08:00,160 --> 00:08:07,680 >> Do we want to put some triangles on this? >> I would I would love to. Maybe just like 110 00:08:04,319 --> 00:08:10,080 a couple bigger shapes. 111 00:08:07,680 --> 00:08:12,000 >> 45 minutes. >> Sebastian, I have good news and bad 112 00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:16,479 news. >> Uh, bad news. >> Bad news is the remote is not in here. 113 00:08:15,039 --> 00:08:20,400 >> Then we need the app. That's fine. The app >> app uses Wi-Fi. 114 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:25,199 >> Can you use it to set it up? And then >> Wait, is this one sealed? Hold on. Hold 115 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:26,639 on. Maybe this one has a remote. A no. 116 00:08:25,199 --> 00:08:31,759 You know what? Yes, that was the good news, by the I think you're brilliant. Excellent. We can set it up now cuz 117 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:37,840 we're allowed to use Wi-Fi for setup and then set up. >> Y sick. 118 00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:41,200 Thank you. 119 00:08:41,200 --> 00:08:48,959 Oh god. No. That one's too heavy. 120 00:08:47,600 --> 00:08:53,200 >> Hey Sebastian, want to play your favorite game again? >> I'm guessing it's bad news and bad news. 121 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:56,080 >> No, there's good news. Bad news is this strip doesn't work. >> Okay. 122 00:08:54,560 --> 00:09:01,279 >> The good news is this one does. >> Oh. One strip. >> We have one strip. Do we want underglow 123 00:08:59,200 --> 00:09:03,519 on the couch or bias lighting on the TV? >> TV. >> I think TV. 124 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:08,160 >> Not going to lie, I was kind of hoping they'd say couch cuz that would have been a lot easier. But I think it's the 125 00:09:06,560 --> 00:09:12,720 right call because not only does bias lighting improve the mood and the vibe, 126 00:09:10,240 --> 00:09:18,399 but it also is supposed to improve the perceived contrast, which with our HDR 127 00:09:16,000 --> 00:09:22,320 TV is going to be a plus. Try not to knock this TV over. That would actually 128 00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:25,680 be disastrous right now. I need you to go to the other side to help me stretch 129 00:09:24,160 --> 00:09:29,040 this across all without knocking over the TV. Oh, wait. Shoot. We're over 130 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:32,880 these cables. I got to hand it to you through the cables, too. 131 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:38,399 >> No, it has to go under this power cable. I can get behind. I got this other side. 132 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:41,279 Wait. Oh, god. You got it. Okay. I got my side. I got my side. 133 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:44,480 >> It's not on very well. I'm holding the TV. You can go down on your side. >> Okay. I got it under the thing. 134 00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:50,320 >> Okay. >> Okay. Oh god. Oh. 135 00:09:48,560 --> 00:09:54,399 >> Okay. >> Down on your side. >> Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Is she still stable? 136 00:09:54,000 --> 00:10:01,519 Is >> now we're good. How does it always come down to the wire like this? 137 00:09:59,519 --> 00:10:04,480 >> Looks a bit like a real set, but so far it works. That's better than I was 138 00:10:02,959 --> 00:10:07,680 concerned we were going to be at like half an hour ago. >> All hands on deck. We're centering the 139 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:12,000 TV. >> I think you need to go on more step side. Just a little bit. 140 00:10:11,040 --> 00:10:16,000 >> Okay, we good. >> Do we have anything that we can cover this up with? 141 00:10:14,240 --> 00:10:20,560 >> Oh, that's true. The lighting lights it right up. >> What I'll do, I'll cut the shelf that we 142 00:10:19,120 --> 00:10:25,200 have over there into a strip. We can just put it in front there. >> Do we want to go with like blue kind of 143 00:10:23,760 --> 00:10:27,279 light like lighting? We should decide that right now. >> Dad, the blue. 144 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:31,519 >> Yeah. >> Are we happy with what the BIOS lighting looks like? >> Yeah, I'm happy with it. 145 00:10:30,560 --> 00:10:35,600 >> You're happy with it? >> Are there any other little outstanding items that you have, Pancrrets? 146 00:10:34,320 --> 00:10:41,120 >> It would just be double- checking to make sure that everything works. >> Okay, let's do that then. 147 00:10:39,440 --> 00:10:45,920 >> Our subwoofer is not overcooked right now. >> Maybe a little, not much. 148 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:48,560 >> I've got the center boosted 3dB right now. >> Give her another 2dB. 149 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:52,079 >> No. >> Yeah. >> Yep. We still need to clean the TV and 150 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:57,519 clean the console. >> Front center. Front. I'm just checking 151 00:10:54,720 --> 00:11:01,600 to make sure that uh all the channels are working properly. 152 00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:06,160 >> There we go. >> Dollarama, baby. >> I'm glad I got just the right amount of 153 00:11:04,959 --> 00:11:09,680 stuff. I think I could have gotten like a little more to fill up like one of the 154 00:11:08,079 --> 00:11:13,920 shelves that I ended up putting like the snacks on, but I think I had like the 155 00:11:11,760 --> 00:11:18,320 perfect amount of things on the amount of shelves that I got and a good amount 156 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:23,279 of shelf. Okay, we still have some time. I'm going to set up the banana cuz I got 157 00:11:20,399 --> 00:11:28,320 the best banana of them all. This one too bright. 158 00:11:26,000 --> 00:11:31,040 >> So, I'm just looking at what the piece looks like. And we're going to do it 159 00:11:29,519 --> 00:11:35,519 like the other way around to make sure that we're not infringing on. 160 00:11:33,920 --> 00:11:38,640 >> What I'm working on just finished. I was working on connecting the Xbox 161 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:42,640 controllers. All three are now connected. So, that's good. You like my 162 00:11:40,880 --> 00:11:47,920 desktop background? It's a official Microsoft 4K version of the Windows XP 163 00:11:46,399 --> 00:11:51,920 Bliss background. Another thing I noticed was in the shadow options under 164 00:11:50,000 --> 00:11:55,839 network there was this setting and it used to be set to like 20 or 30 and now 165 00:11:54,480 --> 00:11:59,920 it's at 70. So that should help. >> No hole patch. We'll patch him uh from 166 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:05,360 the inside. Scissor list not available. >> Okay. >> Is that HD bliss? Oh my god. This room 167 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:10,160 is really good for like reducing anxiety. >> Yeah. >> It feels like a therapist room. 168 00:12:08,399 --> 00:12:12,079 >> That's not a thing that you should say. >> Yeah. All right. Just keep going. Keep 169 00:12:11,519 --> 00:12:18,240 going. >> These fine art contemporary art pieces. You'll see like somebody who paints like 170 00:12:16,160 --> 00:12:22,560 an entire canvas in red and you're like, I could do that. But it's actually about 171 00:12:19,680 --> 00:12:26,240 like the way that you like use the brush a bajillion times to make it perfectly 172 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:30,560 red. I'm not an art major, but I'm trying my best to like notice the little 173 00:12:27,920 --> 00:12:33,360 details like where the duct tape goes. Oh, I think it's ripped. 174 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:36,320 >> I'm pretty sure the tape is not perfect. >> It's supposed to be ripped. 175 00:12:34,639 --> 00:12:39,760 >> It is a living art piece, though. They literally update it all the time. 176 00:12:38,079 --> 00:12:43,600 >> Do you guys like the media on here, or should I lose it? Would it be better if they were tucked straight? 177 00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:48,800 >> Straight an angle's fine. I think it goes fine. >> Oh, the flowers kind of died overnight, didn't they? 178 00:12:46,800 --> 00:12:54,079 >> We can go last minute. >> Uh, that's pretty sad. No, that's pretty 179 00:12:51,440 --> 00:12:56,480 sad, too. What the hell? Do we not have any grass here? What the 180 00:12:55,680 --> 00:13:01,680 >> Where's Sebastian? >> He went to go pick flowers. >> He's picking fl Okay, I need him to cut 181 00:12:59,760 --> 00:13:05,040 this. I don't know where the saw is. He's picking flowers. Yeah. No. No. It 182 00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:09,680 makes sense. >> Here, 183 00:13:09,680 --> 00:13:13,680 Sebastian. I need another cable management hider. Can we just break it 184 00:13:13,279 --> 00:13:18,160 in half? >> Uh, yeah. I'll show you. I'll show you. I'll show you. >> We've got some grass for touch grass. 185 00:13:16,800 --> 00:13:21,360 >> Okay, let's go. Let's go. Let's go. >> Minus. What do you need? >> This I could Sharpie for a very short 186 00:13:20,880 --> 00:13:27,279 distance. >> Okay. Yeah. And then I can sharpie the other side and we can put it on the other side of the thing. 187 00:13:24,480 --> 00:13:31,680 >> Oh, we still have to wipe down the TV. >> Connection drops. Packet loss. Why does 188 00:13:29,120 --> 00:13:35,839 the office's internet just suck so much? >> Okay, that's all holes minus roof. 189 00:13:33,680 --> 00:13:39,440 >> Cool. We got to find something for the roof. 190 00:13:37,839 --> 00:13:44,079 >> Pays off to be friends with logistics. They'll help you with things if you ask nicely. 191 00:13:42,079 --> 00:13:48,160 Hey Dan, you're up. >> Now I just need to basically adjust the 192 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:50,079 levels of them and then I'm done. >> Okay, two people stabilized, one person 193 00:13:49,839 --> 00:13:54,800 clean. >> Do we have another Sharpie? >> We're just cleaning the TV right now. Let's get this as clean as we can. 194 00:13:53,760 --> 00:13:58,160 You're going to have to kind of really scrub it just in the in the bottom corner. I don't know. 195 00:13:57,199 --> 00:14:02,880 >> 5 minutes. >> Do you have a good like reflection from the light to see? Okay, good. And then 196 00:14:01,519 --> 00:14:05,360 as soon as we're done wiping the TV, Pancrats, I guess you get content on it. 197 00:14:04,959 --> 00:14:12,959 Y >> I will continue sharp Sharpieing. >> Okay, I think it's pretty good. 198 00:14:09,680 --> 00:14:15,360 >> Okay. There's like a mode right here. 199 00:14:12,959 --> 00:14:17,920 So, the bass sounds like but whatever. We've got like no time left. So, I give 200 00:14:17,600 --> 00:14:25,000 up. >> Dan, I need um the room for the last part. >> We're done with audio. We're good. 201 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:25,000 >> Okay. 202 00:14:26,160 --> 00:14:32,399 >> Oh god, >> that's very scary. >> Careful. It's It definitely moved. 203 00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:35,360 >> It's fine. It's fine. It's fine. It's fine. It's fine. 204 00:14:34,079 --> 00:14:42,720 >> Guys, be careful. >> Yeah. >> Projector's moving. >> Yeah, I'm I'm coming down now. 205 00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:50,000 Okay, final stage. It's together. Unfortunately, the the 206 00:14:47,519 --> 00:14:53,839 projector shifted, but the roof hole seems to be covered. The bananas on the 207 00:14:51,839 --> 00:14:56,480 wall. The room is together, which honestly Oh, hey, there's still light 208 00:14:55,519 --> 00:15:00,959 coming through that hole. >> Yeah, right there. I'm >> trying to make it so that the the games 209 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:04,959 are at least in like full screen before they get here. >> Luke, does that work? 210 00:15:03,440 --> 00:15:10,480 >> Yeah. >> Wait, guys, quick. Um, covers or naked? 211 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:13,839 Naked. Naked. >> Naked. Naked. Naked. >> 1 minute. 212 00:15:13,120 --> 00:15:18,720 >> 1 minute. >> Oh, wait. One last question. Nat. >> Yes. Yes. Yes. 213 00:15:16,639 --> 00:15:21,680 >> From an aesthetic balance perspective, do you want the PC there or the little 214 00:15:20,639 --> 00:15:27,920 table thing there? >> PC there. >> PC there. You bet. >> 30 seconds. 215 00:15:25,920 --> 00:15:30,560 >> Uh, can you confirm now that it is here that we like it there? 216 00:15:28,959 --> 00:15:33,680 >> Yep. 30 seconds. I'm going to turn the light back on. 217 00:15:32,079 --> 00:15:36,639 >> I think it all came together. >> I turned the controller off intentionally so it doesn't drain the 218 00:15:36,320 --> 00:15:47,120 battery. >> You know what? No, let's let's have it on. I think this is more welcoming. 219 00:15:40,000 --> 00:15:48,720 >> 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 220 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:52,639 >> 2 1 >> Okay, I'm pretty happy. 221 00:15:51,440 --> 00:15:59,040 >> I'm stoked. >> This is fire. 222 00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:59,600 >> Stop damaging the 223 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:04,480 Jesus. >> With the rooms ready to go, it's time for the most important part of the week, 224 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:08,800 the judging. Lionus, seeing as you got to pick your teammate second, would you 225 00:16:06,240 --> 00:16:13,120 like to be judged first or second? >> What do you want? 226 00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:15,920 >> Uh, I want to be judged second. 227 00:16:13,120 --> 00:16:19,040 >> I want second. >> That's how it's going to be. 228 00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:23,040 >> You know what? Why don't we flip for it? >> Sure. >> I actually baited you to exactly what I 229 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:25,920 wanted. So, I did not want a coin flip. I wanted you to go >> to go first or second. 230 00:16:25,360 --> 00:16:31,120 >> Second. >> You want me to go? Oh, I want to go second. I have been baited. 231 00:16:28,959 --> 00:16:34,079 >> Luke is a master. >> Ah. 232 00:16:32,880 --> 00:16:41,000 manipulator. >> Yeah, that's right. 233 00:16:36,000 --> 00:16:41,000 >> Okay, let's get the judging underway. 234 00:17:00,480 --> 00:17:04,160 Welcome to the humble abode. 235 00:17:09,919 --> 00:17:18,480 Having seen the rooms as they were before, very impressed. 236 00:17:15,039 --> 00:17:21,039 >> It's supposed to be multimodal kind of. 237 00:17:18,480 --> 00:17:25,199 This is not just a theater room. It's not just a gaming space. You want to be 238 00:17:23,039 --> 00:17:29,280 able to relax in here. There's drinks in the Coke fridge. There's snacks in 239 00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:33,679 varieties of places. You can do whatever you want. >> Is that from Momma? 240 00:17:30,720 --> 00:17:38,960 >> Uh, yes. We also have various pieces of art around the room, including a lore 241 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:44,240 accurate banana taped to wall reversed orientation on purpose to make it 242 00:17:40,880 --> 00:17:46,000 legally distinct. 243 00:17:44,240 --> 00:17:49,760 >> I do like the use of the acoustic paneling to like flank the sides of the 244 00:17:48,480 --> 00:17:54,799 projector screen. I think it fills up the space pretty nicely. >> The warm light is nice, although a lamp 245 00:17:52,880 --> 00:18:00,000 shade maybe hiding that would have been a good touch. >> I was going to check if the if the 246 00:17:57,360 --> 00:18:02,160 surrounds are at the same height. >> They're not. That one's hiding. Yeah, 247 00:18:00,960 --> 00:18:06,160 that one's higher >> and crooked. >> Uh, adjustable. We like we like to go 248 00:18:05,520 --> 00:18:12,640 with adjustable. >> Okay, good to know. >> Can I adjust it right now? >> No. >> Uh, prefer maybe not. Uh, 249 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:17,120 >> this fridge beside me, >> yes, >> is incredibly loud. >> It can be turned off. Uh, there is a 250 00:18:15,679 --> 00:18:20,960 switch on the back. There's actually Coke in there if you would like a refreshing beverage. 251 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:24,200 >> No vibes. >> You're allowed. 252 00:18:24,799 --> 00:18:30,240 >> I like this room a lot. Quick. 253 00:18:28,400 --> 00:18:33,760 >> Yeah, >> it's a good size projector screen for 254 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:39,120 this room. It's not too big. >> Yeah, we didn't actually want it to feel 255 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:42,160 like a movie room. We wanted to feel like a place you can hang out and you 256 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:45,600 can also watch movies. You can also play games. You can also use computer, do whatever you want. 257 00:18:44,160 --> 00:18:49,200 >> It does not feel like that. It feels like a movie room. >> Okay. All right. 258 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:53,760 >> It feels like a good movie room. I think the coffee table's nice. It's tough to like judge you on the quality of the 259 00:18:52,080 --> 00:18:58,960 furniture. I'm actually just impressed this couch is like not trash. 260 00:18:56,799 --> 00:19:04,799 Like it's it's okay. Still on the decor side. Um it's obviously very clean 261 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:06,720 space, Nordic even. But the cable 262 00:19:04,799 --> 00:19:11,360 management situation here is a lot different than from here out. 263 00:19:09,360 --> 00:19:15,840 >> Yeah, it makes me sad. >> We were able to get fully hidden cables 264 00:19:13,440 --> 00:19:19,280 for all of the speakers and mostly hidden cables for the projector. 265 00:19:17,840 --> 00:19:24,320 >> You guys actually ran the wire through the wall. >> Yeah. >> Kudos. That's that's a lot of work. We 266 00:19:22,160 --> 00:19:28,240 also just This reminded me the projector also includes 3D active 3D glasses. 267 00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:33,200 >> Wow. >> So you can watch 3D movies if you're interested 268 00:19:31,840 --> 00:19:37,280 >> or not. >> Yeah. >> Did you get a three Did you get us 3D 269 00:19:35,360 --> 00:19:41,919 media to to test with? >> No, you look good. I got to say, you 270 00:19:39,200 --> 00:19:46,000 look good. >> You've got the the tech command seat and 271 00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:49,039 then you've got the snack command seat and they can both It's like a driver and 272 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:52,240 passenger in a car. >> I got you. Yeah, that's >> And then the person in the middle is 273 00:19:51,520 --> 00:19:57,760 just the king. >> Just enjoying life. If you're really desperate, technically I think it's like 274 00:19:56,400 --> 00:20:03,600 every 6 days you're supposed to eat the banana and replace it. >> Honestly, it looks nice, but it is the 275 00:20:01,679 --> 00:20:07,120 vibe is rental property core >> or hotel room. I just got here. 276 00:20:06,000 --> 00:20:12,240 >> Feels like an Airbnb. >> Yeah, >> but it is like really clean and like and 277 00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:14,880 tasteful. Like look at this damn baze. It's a really clean and nice and modern 278 00:20:14,320 --> 00:20:20,960 space. >> Well, I think it's time that we move on to the movie watching experience. I will 279 00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:25,760 say right now, projector not even close to aligned. It's not keystoneed. It's 280 00:20:22,880 --> 00:20:29,720 It's at an angle. Is there a subwoofer? >> Yes. Yeah. 281 00:20:26,559 --> 00:20:29,720 >> Down there. 282 00:20:29,919 --> 00:20:37,280 That sucks. 283 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:39,440 >> Marceline songs are so good. 284 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:42,320 >> Maybe I can get Marceline to write a song with me. 285 00:20:40,559 --> 00:20:46,080 >> I've seen enough. >> So, what resolution is this projector? 286 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:48,880 >> 4K. Is this 4K content? 287 00:20:48,080 --> 00:20:53,880 >> Yes, >> but no HDR. >> Projector can do HDR. 288 00:20:57,679 --> 00:21:02,799 >> You decided there was no media software 289 00:21:00,960 --> 00:21:05,360 or controller for the computer. Some sort of software interface that if I 290 00:21:04,240 --> 00:21:10,799 wanted to have a more couch-like TV-l like experience. >> Definitely considered it. 291 00:21:07,760 --> 00:21:13,280 >> Uh probably a very reasonable upgrade to 292 00:21:10,799 --> 00:21:15,360 go into over the next little while. >> I like this though. It brings back to my 293 00:21:14,640 --> 00:21:20,559 college days. >> Oh yeah, totally. >> Should we just have the lamp on instead? 294 00:21:19,360 --> 00:21:23,760 >> How accessible is the lamp? >> Oh my god, >> it's um >> Oh, it really changes it. 295 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:28,400 >> Yeah, it's pretty bad. >> Yeah, that does change things. >> I think you start game. 296 00:21:26,640 --> 00:21:32,240 >> Wouldn't have it on when you're gaming. >> No. So, we don't have any smart bulbs or 297 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:34,880 dimming bulbs. >> Okay. 298 00:21:33,679 --> 00:21:38,159 >> And how are you doing the volume? Just on the knob of the AVR? >> Yeah. Do you have a remote for the 299 00:21:37,280 --> 00:21:41,440 volume? >> Uh volume can be done here. I did did it 300 00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:45,919 with a knob, but you can do it with a controller. >> The reds really blow out. Yeah, they're 301 00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:49,120 really overcooked. >> Which was interesting because the 302 00:21:47,039 --> 00:21:52,000 yellows were really bad. >> What were we trying to change? 303 00:21:50,559 --> 00:21:54,640 >> It was >> cuz this is game streaming, right? 304 00:21:53,679 --> 00:21:58,640 >> No idea at all. >> Yeah, >> unless you have a very flawless and 305 00:21:56,799 --> 00:22:00,720 reliable internet connection. >> You end up with problems like this 306 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:04,240 constantly. You're constantly troubleshooting. >> I just checked our network and 307 00:22:03,280 --> 00:22:08,880 everything's screwed. >> All right, give us the mouse. Let's do some lap. Do they have a lap board? What 308 00:22:07,679 --> 00:22:13,280 do we got here? Oh, table. >> Oh, just a table. It's not really designed for uh heavy keyboard and mouse 309 00:22:12,799 --> 00:22:18,960 use. Is >> the keyboard wireless? >> Nope. >> Oh, all right. >> We're having some office level technical 310 00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:22,720 difficulties that are making that our streaming service for games is not going 311 00:22:21,200 --> 00:22:27,039 to work. So, what we're going to do is we're going to run the benchmarks in front of the judges to give them an idea 312 00:22:25,360 --> 00:22:30,960 of what the performance should be like on a good day. And we're going to have 313 00:22:28,799 --> 00:22:34,559 that for our performance benchmark portion. Uh but this is obviously going 314 00:22:33,039 --> 00:22:38,720 to affect the subjective portion which the judges will elaborate on later. The 315 00:22:37,039 --> 00:22:43,600 frame rate's running smoothly on their side >> and it's just that it's dropping packets 316 00:22:41,520 --> 00:22:47,200 or whatever sending to us. >> You can see that like the minimum frame 317 00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:48,720 rate is still 51. So, it's not dropping on their end. 318 00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:57,200 >> Yeah. >> Chug, chug, chug, chug. >> 97 average on the GPU. It's such a weird 319 00:22:54,799 --> 00:23:04,240 thing. So, you're very CPU limited in this one. 71 was the average, max of 320 00:23:01,120 --> 00:23:05,679 124. That's better than a lock 60. All 321 00:23:04,240 --> 00:23:13,120 right, I think we've seen enough. Let's take a look at the next room. >> Welcome, Games Master David, esteemed 322 00:23:09,360 --> 00:23:16,080 judges to the vibe zone. 323 00:23:13,120 --> 00:23:21,080 >> Oh my god, this is >> Welcome to an 18-year-old's cool 324 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:21,080 bedroom. 325 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:27,679 >> Hey, look at all the door. >> It's a lot of dew. That's a lot of 326 00:23:27,039 --> 00:23:34,240 Mountain Dew. >> Painted sauna pan. >> The acoustic panels are making a huge 327 00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:36,799 change in here. How old was the person who painted the 328 00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:40,159 walls? >> Eight or 80? 329 00:23:38,799 --> 00:23:45,280 >> An adult. >> Is this spray paint? >> Oh, no. Don't touch that too much. 330 00:23:43,200 --> 00:23:48,480 >> What the Oh, this is so you could get your center speaker there, huh? 331 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:53,280 >> These are >> These are the shelves from this unit 332 00:23:50,880 --> 00:23:55,600 >> turned on end to jack up the height of the TV. 333 00:23:54,159 --> 00:23:59,120 >> That is so sketch. >> That's sketch as hell. >> That's terrifying. 334 00:23:57,360 --> 00:24:03,520 >> I appreciate the multi-purposeness of the space. They actually included books, 335 00:24:01,200 --> 00:24:08,480 >> but no extra lighting, so you're >> It's >> Well, no, that light is adjustable. 336 00:24:05,520 --> 00:24:10,640 >> Is it RGB? It's RGB wireless like Wi-Fi light. Smart light. 337 00:24:09,120 --> 00:24:15,520 >> I can't control it right now. >> I like that little lamp shade on it. 338 00:24:12,559 --> 00:24:18,720 >> 3D shade is a nice chair. 339 00:24:16,400 --> 00:24:22,240 >> I was just >> I don't recommend the crack spot. 340 00:24:20,320 --> 00:24:24,240 >> Yeah, I sat right in the middle. >> Oh, it's a love seat. That's why the 341 00:24:23,840 --> 00:24:32,080 chair. >> No, what it is. If you could uh if you could move for a moment. Da da da da. 342 00:24:31,520 --> 00:24:38,000 >> This is IKEA. >> Yeah, that's what we want. >> Boom. >> The chair makes sense now. 343 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:41,279 >> There is no shadow of a doubt that that is a cuck chair. 344 00:24:39,520 --> 00:24:46,480 >> One of the key elements was how inviting the space is. We felt that having two 345 00:24:43,760 --> 00:24:51,440 controllers is far more inviting than one controller or playing golf. Golf 346 00:24:49,039 --> 00:24:54,240 with your friends. >> Nice. 347 00:24:53,440 --> 00:24:57,840 >> Okay. >> Immediate hole in one set. 348 00:24:56,559 --> 00:25:01,760 >> Why is no sound? >> Yeah. Can we >> Oh, sorry. Uh oh. Well, hold on. Hold 349 00:25:00,400 --> 00:25:06,880 on. You wouldn't want to You wouldn't want to get up to change the volume. 350 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:11,039 >> I really like the choice to do an accent wall. You had blue walls and then one 351 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:15,279 that is a different color. Back lighting also think is I'm not going to say 352 00:25:13,679 --> 00:25:18,400 classy, but it's nice. >> It does have a distinctly kind of '90s 353 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:23,360 vibe. >> It's got Cinniplex arcade energy. >> Yes. >> The Doritos match the wall. 354 00:25:22,799 --> 00:25:29,679 >> Oh, yeah. >> Oh, yeah. >> Really cohesive. Really bringing it together. I do wish they had a ladder or 355 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:34,080 something so they could keep it going higher to the ceiling. It seems like it 356 00:25:31,279 --> 00:25:38,080 just like arbitrarily stops, but maybe they just ran out of panels. We felt 357 00:25:36,000 --> 00:25:43,039 that the room was a little tall and almost aquarium feeling. So, it was a 358 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:48,400 conscious decision not to put the sound panels up any higher than you normally 359 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:50,159 would with about an 8ft ceiling. 360 00:25:48,400 --> 00:25:53,039 We found that acoustically the ceiling panels made an enormous difference even 361 00:25:51,919 --> 00:25:55,840 though there's not that many of them. >> Did you make the frames? No, this frame 362 00:25:55,279 --> 00:26:01,520 was free. >> That reeks a free. >> Yeah, >> it reeks as free. Almost as free as a 363 00:25:59,919 --> 00:26:05,760 Pearl Harbor poster. >> No, we paid for that. Hey, that has an 364 00:26:03,760 --> 00:26:08,880 actual film strip from the film. >> Wow. >> That's collectible. 365 00:26:07,919 --> 00:26:14,559 >> What are you sitting on? >> Oh, I'm just sitting on a little 366 00:26:12,080 --> 00:26:18,720 >> Oh, the IKEA basket. >> Convenient little basket table. 367 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:21,919 >> I like the the pullable side table. >> It's a little high. 368 00:26:19,919 --> 00:26:26,000 >> Is it not compatible with this couch? works perfectly until you go to pull it 369 00:26:24,240 --> 00:26:31,120 out. So, we positioned it here. >> Let's try. 370 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:32,559 >> So, the idea is that it can There you 371 00:26:31,120 --> 00:26:36,400 go. It goes in about that far. >> That was not worth the effort. >> Uh yeah, that's why we had it where we 372 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:41,200 had it. >> For the most part, really clean job on 373 00:26:38,640 --> 00:26:43,760 cutting the audio, the uh was that like sonap or whatever? It feels like it's 374 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:50,240 the stuff we used in the server room. The cuts are pretty clean. When you get the ones close here, it looks pretty 375 00:26:46,720 --> 00:26:52,400 dirty, but when you're far away, it just 376 00:26:50,240 --> 00:26:55,120 looks cheap. It was cheap. 377 00:26:53,600 --> 00:26:59,360 >> Yeah, especially the screws through the middle of them. >> I think that we're really focused on 378 00:26:57,679 --> 00:27:05,120 minor details like whether there's a screw hole and we're ignoring 379 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:10,400 >> I think we can hold uh two things in our minds at once. >> You have a PC and a PlayStation. 380 00:27:07,679 --> 00:27:13,600 >> Uh we do. We have a working PC. It's not plugged in. Nope. 381 00:27:13,600 --> 00:27:18,960 >> The rules only stipulate that you must have a working PC, which we do. 382 00:27:17,120 --> 00:27:22,640 >> The uh the lighting strip behind the TV is just one color. Yes, it's bias 383 00:27:21,120 --> 00:27:26,240 lighting, so it's intended to improve contrast. It's not for vibe. 384 00:27:24,880 --> 00:27:30,799 >> I'm mostly impressed with the size of the speakers. Do you have any surrounds? 385 00:27:29,120 --> 00:27:34,640 >> We felt that in such a small room with the budgetary constraints that we were 386 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:38,960 under, choosing acoustic treatment over surround speakers was a no-brainer. We 387 00:27:37,440 --> 00:27:42,080 could have surround speakers in here, but if we had reflections all over the 388 00:27:40,559 --> 00:27:45,200 place, you'd basically just be sitting in a mess of positional audio. 389 00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:48,200 >> Shall we watch something? >> Sure. 390 00:27:48,240 --> 00:27:55,039 I go to them. >> It's hard to judge this when we're watching such a low resolution version 391 00:27:52,799 --> 00:27:57,360 of it because of the internet right now. >> Uh yeah. Which movie did you want? 392 00:27:57,039 --> 00:28:02,640 Sorry. >> Uh Return of the King. >> Uh just just pointing out that as a 393 00:28:00,559 --> 00:28:07,440 bonus. Um we have all three. >> Wow. >> So is there no control for the light? 394 00:28:05,919 --> 00:28:11,840 >> There is. >> How do you control it? >> With an app. Oh, wait. Well, yeah, you 395 00:28:10,320 --> 00:28:14,880 can turn it off. >> Yeah. Want it off then by all means. 396 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:20,640 >> Let's leave it off for now cuz we had on last one. >> You sure? Oh, okay. The film grain's 397 00:28:18,399 --> 00:28:24,559 aggressive. And I'm thinking that there's processing on the TV that's 398 00:28:22,159 --> 00:28:28,960 making it worse. HDR on. >> Uh, these are the non4K Blu-rays. How 399 00:28:27,520 --> 00:28:31,600 are you guys enjoying the size of the TV? >> I think it's an ideal size for the 400 00:28:30,720 --> 00:28:35,679 space. >> Good height, too, if you just ignore how 401 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:38,679 it got to that height. >> Yeah. 402 00:28:42,399 --> 00:28:47,600 >> Let's go. The sub sounds so much like it 403 00:28:45,600 --> 00:28:50,240 is over there. At least from my sitting position. It might be better when you're 404 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:53,360 closer to the corners. >> I didn't notice that. >> For me, I was just like, "Wow, that is 405 00:28:52,480 --> 00:29:00,320 where the sub is." >> I was surprised at how the directional audio came through still quite a lot 406 00:28:57,679 --> 00:29:05,120 even though there is no surround actual with the zipline scene specifically. 407 00:29:02,720 --> 00:29:08,000 >> I would almost hazard to say that these speakers might be a bit too much for the 408 00:29:06,399 --> 00:29:11,200 room. There's times where it feels almost like shouty. Like there were some 409 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:15,440 very noticeable peaks for me. >> Mhm. That didn't feel great to hear. It 410 00:29:14,240 --> 00:29:20,559 was like uneven in a sense. >> All right, that's enough Christopher Nolan. Let's play some games. We have 411 00:29:18,320 --> 00:29:23,360 two controllers. Just thought I'd point that out. >> You've said that a bunch of time like 412 00:29:21,919 --> 00:29:26,480 you think they only have one. >> I don't know how many. I don't know what they have. There's three of us. 413 00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:30,880 >> I just know. >> Yeah, you you have less. You have less. We can't all play together. 414 00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:36,880 >> But look at the quality of these controllers. Dual sense. No stick drift. 415 00:29:35,840 --> 00:29:42,480 >> It feels really smooth. >> It's PlayStation. >> Yeah, this tough to beat. 416 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:46,320 >> All right. Red Dead Redemption 2 gaming. >> This game came out on the PS4 and it's 417 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:49,120 locked at 30 on the PS5. Rockstar ass move. I mean, it's this for the next 25 418 00:29:48,559 --> 00:29:53,799 minutes. >> Yeah. All right. Is there another game? 419 00:29:54,799 --> 00:29:58,559 >> It looks like a good experience. >> It's It was made for this console, so 420 00:29:58,080 --> 00:30:02,640 it's uh >> Yeah, it's like rock solid and >> Yeah, feels nice. 421 00:30:01,520 --> 00:30:08,480 >> All right, I've seen enough. >> Well, hold on there. Before we get to the results, I want to tell you about a 422 00:30:06,799 --> 00:30:13,679 Floatplane exclusive stream that's going to be happening on Tuesday. September 9th, where me and pretty much 423 00:30:11,840 --> 00:30:17,200 all the contestants are going to watch through the show, talk about our 424 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:19,760 experiences, and sort of let you in on some of the behind-the-scenes secrets 425 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:25,039 that happened. And that's going to be happening over on LMG.gg/flatplane. 426 00:30:22,960 --> 00:30:28,559 So, you don't want to miss that. Now, back to the video. We are now going to 427 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:31,760 go through our results category by category. >> Starting with Vibe Max, which is 428 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:35,159 something that sounds like it needs a prescription for 429 00:30:35,919 --> 00:30:42,159 the Vibes. really accessible and I would say well decorated space. I like 430 00:30:40,480 --> 00:30:46,480 everything that's in there. I think most people would think it was pretty nice. 431 00:30:44,000 --> 00:30:50,559 In three words, rental property core. The stylistic design is both bland but 432 00:30:49,039 --> 00:30:54,320 clean enough that you could bring anybody there, including your mom. 433 00:30:52,559 --> 00:30:59,120 >> It's a wellthoughtout space. It really is. There's a fridge, there's snacks, 434 00:30:56,720 --> 00:31:02,480 all very well accessible. It is a little bit bland. 435 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:06,799 >> I'm giving Vibeax a 6 out of 10 for vibes. I'm giving Vibe Max a seven out 436 00:31:05,520 --> 00:31:09,679 of 10 for vibes. >> I'm giving Vibeax an eight out of 10 for 437 00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:13,399 vibe. >> On to movie experience. 438 00:31:15,039 --> 00:31:21,440 >> Projector, not a line. Projector has scan lines, so Adventure Time colors were weird. Uh contrast not ex not 439 00:31:19,840 --> 00:31:25,520 exciting, but uh you know, it's okay, I guess. >> The projector and the surround setup at 440 00:31:23,600 --> 00:31:30,000 first seemed like great ideas, but ultimately turned out to be the downfall 441 00:31:27,520 --> 00:31:34,159 of this setup. The projector colors were super overcooked in the reds. People's 442 00:31:32,240 --> 00:31:37,679 skins looked overly yellow and the hobbits looked like they were just dead 443 00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:40,559 and they don't die. Spoilers. And then for the surround sound, it sounded like 444 00:31:39,279 --> 00:31:45,440 all the audio that ought to be out of the front towers was coming out of this one surround speaker beside me. And I 445 00:31:43,360 --> 00:31:50,799 had no sense of stereo panning. I just only got surround. 446 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:53,200 >> Overall, good screen size and it worked. 447 00:31:50,799 --> 00:31:56,240 You clicked the movie, it played. Sound worked, volume worked, 448 00:31:54,399 --> 00:31:59,840 >> and high quality files from a totally legal source. 449 00:31:58,240 --> 00:32:04,880 Sir, I think you mean click the Linux ISO. >> Five, a six out of 10. 450 00:32:02,799 --> 00:32:09,840 >> Seven out of 10. >> A theme is emerging. 451 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:14,880 >> It's going down. >> The gaming experience 452 00:32:15,120 --> 00:32:21,679 due to technical difficulties. This was very hard for us to judge. However, it 453 00:32:19,919 --> 00:32:26,240 was a technical difficulty that is well known with the strategy that was chosen. 454 00:32:24,480 --> 00:32:30,799 Game streaming is only as good as your internet connection. And today's 455 00:32:27,919 --> 00:32:34,559 internet connection was very bad. I felt the setup was incomplete. You went for 456 00:32:32,559 --> 00:32:39,600 like a couch gaming setup with the PC, which I've had in the past, but you need 457 00:32:36,240 --> 00:32:41,360 to have at minimum a wireless keyboard. 458 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:45,440 Your keyboard, it kind of made it to the couch area, but by and large, it was 459 00:32:43,279 --> 00:32:49,600 designed to be used over in the corner. I'm not going to use that controller to 460 00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:53,679 play an RTS. having a rented computer, a cloud streaming service, you would 461 00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:58,960 expect to play normal PC games rather than just console games. Obviously, when 462 00:32:56,159 --> 00:33:03,440 we did do the benchmarks, we'd had good frames overall, but it was ultimately 463 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:09,120 unplayable. For gaming, I'm giving Luke's team a six. Even though it didn't 464 00:33:06,720 --> 00:33:13,919 work so well, you got to give points for the flexibility of the system. It is PC 465 00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:18,080 gaming. It doesn't always just work, but you get more flexibility and freedom. 466 00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:21,760 So, I like the spirit of the idea. >> You encapsulated my thoughts perfectly, 467 00:33:19,679 --> 00:33:25,760 and I also gave them a six out of 10. >> You both said exactly what I was gonna 468 00:33:23,840 --> 00:33:30,880 say. It's also a six out of 10. >> Okay. >> Okay. Okay. 469 00:33:29,279 --> 00:33:35,600 >> That could have been worse. Yeah. All right. 470 00:33:33,760 --> 00:33:40,200 >> I mean, yay. Thank you. I appreciate your feedback. >> One extra point for Dan. 471 00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:47,360 >> Starting with the vibes of the vibe zone. This is where it gets really tough 472 00:33:45,360 --> 00:33:52,399 because while Luke's team went with a really kind of bland, soulless, but 473 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:56,480 accessible to everyone, whereas Lance's team took a stance, you might not like 474 00:33:54,640 --> 00:34:00,559 it, but some people might really like it. And it just so happens if you've 475 00:33:58,159 --> 00:34:04,399 been to a party at my house, you know I like the lights low. 476 00:34:02,880 --> 00:34:10,159 They also play to the judge's strengths cuz I also like acoustic treatment. So, 477 00:34:07,120 --> 00:34:12,639 I didn't mind the like Doritoshaped 478 00:34:10,159 --> 00:34:15,440 things all over the wall. kind of dorky vibe, but you committed to the bit. But 479 00:34:14,480 --> 00:34:20,800 you did choose one of the most uncomfortable couches I've ever uh been on. And even though you can sleep on it, 480 00:34:19,280 --> 00:34:26,879 I would feel like that was a punishment. TV was precariously set upon pieces of 481 00:34:24,480 --> 00:34:30,800 MDF. And I would rather spend time in a space that can be bright lights that 482 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:35,839 that doesn't feel like an 8-year-old's dream room. >> Walking into Lionus' room, you knew 483 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:40,079 exactly what it was going to be for. Um, you could tell this is a gamer space. 484 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:45,119 There were books available, but also no way to turn on the light more than it 485 00:34:42,159 --> 00:34:50,159 was. So, reading is a punishment. The last thing I'll say is there were quite 486 00:34:47,839 --> 00:34:53,440 fewer snacks in Lionus' room than theirs. 487 00:34:51,599 --> 00:34:56,960 >> And their drinks were cold. >> There definitely was points changed 488 00:34:55,839 --> 00:35:02,240 based on that fact. >> Oh, let's go, dude. >> I'm giving them a seven. 489 00:35:00,160 --> 00:35:07,200 >> I respect the commitment to the bit. Not my vibe. Five out of 10. 490 00:35:04,960 --> 00:35:11,440 >> I gave him an eight out of 10. On to the movie experience. 491 00:35:11,440 --> 00:35:17,520 Just as in Luke's room with the gaming experience, Wi-Fi reared its ugly head. 492 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:21,520 We saw the lowest res copy of Adventure Time on in existence. And 493 00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:25,440 >> oh, that wasn't Wi-Fi. We were on the wire. >> So, we would have had the same issue. 494 00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:31,520 >> More. >> But you also had a computer that you just chose not to use. You could have 495 00:35:29,440 --> 00:35:36,160 maybe taken that computer and put a Plex server on it. Had some other home 496 00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:39,920 theater PC. Instead, you uh decided to look at the uh the letter of the law 497 00:35:38,240 --> 00:35:44,000 instead of the spirit of the law, and you brought a working computer and 498 00:35:41,280 --> 00:35:46,960 ignored it. At least Luke had to use his computer to stream his games. 499 00:35:45,359 --> 00:35:50,560 >> I'm just saying that copy of Adventure Time is not low res. 500 00:35:48,400 --> 00:35:55,839 >> Oh, it's HD, but it looks pretty bad. >> Yeah, our games run fine, too. 501 00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:57,359 >> Yeah, sure, bud. 502 00:35:55,839 --> 00:36:02,240 >> Movie experience was way better in Lionus's room. It was the right choice 503 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:06,079 to just do 3.1. Lionus was bang on when he said that the surround just had too 504 00:36:04,240 --> 00:36:09,200 many extra waveforms fighting each other. Would have liked to have seen 505 00:36:07,359 --> 00:36:13,359 some treatment behind the speakers themselves, not just above it on the 506 00:36:11,040 --> 00:36:18,240 sidewalls. But hey, for the display, the color accuracy was actually, you know, 507 00:36:15,839 --> 00:36:21,599 acceptable. And this TV was a lot brighter than your typical projector. So 508 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:25,680 that made a difference, too, even though we weren't watching in HDR. 509 00:36:23,440 --> 00:36:29,359 >> Yeah, I have to say the TV was the first thing that I noticed with the movie 510 00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:34,480 experience. Yes, it wasn't the best TV in the world, but to normie eyes like 511 00:36:32,079 --> 00:36:38,640 mine, it was fairly fine. It made the movies look fine except Adventure Time. 512 00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:44,640 The only thing to note with the movies was uh no 4K. They went for the uh 513 00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:47,839 Blu-ray option, which was a good option, but on the PS5 there was no HDR. Points 514 00:36:47,200 --> 00:36:52,320 off. >> I'm giving them a six, but my home 515 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:57,119 theater at home is really good. >> I'm giving them a seven. 516 00:36:54,320 --> 00:37:03,440 >> And I am also giving them a seven. The final category is gaming. 517 00:37:03,440 --> 00:37:08,640 PlayStation's just so much easier to use. Oh my god. However limited the 518 00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:12,800 PlayStation may be, it was a very smooth experience and it felt great to play on 519 00:37:10,720 --> 00:37:17,520 that TV with its game mode on. >> It would have been nice to have a keyboard and mouse cuz you know consoles 520 00:37:15,200 --> 00:37:19,920 these days are kind of computers. >> To further that point, 521 00:37:18,720 --> 00:37:23,760 >> please. >> You had a computer. 522 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:28,720 You could have played games that aren't on PlayStation on that computer. retro 523 00:37:26,400 --> 00:37:32,480 games, other easy to run games, but you neglected to implement that. So Luke's 524 00:37:30,880 --> 00:37:34,720 system does have substantially more flexibility in the kinds of games that 525 00:37:34,160 --> 00:37:40,480 you can play. >> Yeah, I will say not having the PC available did really did hurt here. 526 00:37:39,200 --> 00:37:44,320 There wasn't even a mouse and keyboard in that room. I don't think I didn't see 527 00:37:42,240 --> 00:37:47,440 one. And with locked frame rates at 60 and 30 for Red Dead, that was pretty 528 00:37:46,800 --> 00:37:53,359 painful. >> I do want to ask cuz I didn't get a confirmation. How many controllers did 529 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:56,000 we have in Lionus' room? >> More than one. >> Two. 530 00:37:54,720 --> 00:37:59,839 >> Two. How many controls do we have in Luke's room? >> Three. >> Three. >> Three. 531 00:37:58,720 --> 00:38:03,280 >> How many judges do we have? >> All of the judges could play a game at the same time. 532 00:38:02,400 --> 00:38:08,400 >> We didn't. >> Details. >> Overall though, I'm calling this a wash. 533 00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:12,320 A six again for Lian's team. >> I was pretty won over by the 534 00:38:09,839 --> 00:38:18,720 PlayStation. However, I was disappointed by the lack of a PC, which is why I gave 535 00:38:14,960 --> 00:38:21,040 it a 9 out of 10. Except I told Lionus 536 00:38:18,720 --> 00:38:26,880 at the start that for not picking me, he loses a point. He made no effort to make 537 00:38:23,920 --> 00:38:31,440 that better. So, he gets an eight out of 10. 538 00:38:29,119 --> 00:38:35,520 >> And yes, it was a tough call. Both rooms are basically exactly the opposite, 539 00:38:33,440 --> 00:38:42,160 which makes them exactly the same in the same way. Um, but overall, Lionus's 540 00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:45,440 gaming experience was an 8 out of 10. 541 00:38:42,160 --> 00:38:48,400 Oh, the score is tabulated and out of a 542 00:38:45,440 --> 00:38:54,079 possible 90 points, there is only a difference of five, 543 00:38:51,520 --> 00:38:58,160 which means that the winner of Scrapyard Wars 2025 544 00:38:56,160 --> 00:39:01,160 is team. 545 00:39:03,280 --> 00:39:10,240 >> Oh, these are cool. >> Those are cool. >> These are like the best trophies yet. 546 00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:15,599 >> Oh, yeah. Rub it in. Sure. Hey, you got you got trophies, too. 547 00:39:11,599 --> 00:39:16,400 >> That is so sick. Great job, you guys. 548 00:39:15,599 --> 00:39:21,040 >> Great work. It was >> I hope it's an No, it's not. >> I'm really surprised. 549 00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:25,119 >> I'm surprised we judged as well as we did. I kind of wonder if they were like 550 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:30,000 being nice. Directing us towards Projector, which I've never worked with 551 00:39:27,440 --> 00:39:35,839 a projector ever before, was a mistake. I genuinely spent at least half of my 552 00:39:33,440 --> 00:39:37,920 time trying to diagnose shadow issues. >> We did not win the way I was expecting 553 00:39:37,599 --> 00:39:45,440 to. >> No, no, not at We won on gaming. What were the odds? 554 00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:48,720 >> The PS5 gave Adam a lot of points there. 555 00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:50,480 >> Even with the one point deduction, 556 00:39:48,720 --> 00:39:54,720 >> since season 1, there's been this concept of like if we somehow merged our 557 00:39:52,480 --> 00:39:57,839 things, it would be so much better. And like if you guys had our couch, 558 00:39:56,079 --> 00:40:01,680 >> our couch is more ass than the asses that sit on. I think we also got the 559 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:05,839 only secondhand copy of Cyberpunk in the entire Lower Mainland. 560 00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:09,040 I wanted to get an Xbox Series X, but Returnal is still exclusive to 561 00:40:07,520 --> 00:40:11,520 PlayStation and PC. >> PlayStation. Yeah, >> that would have given me cheaper 562 00:40:10,720 --> 00:40:16,480 controllers, too. >> Ours were pretty banged up. We had to 3D print battery holders and thumb sticks. 563 00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:20,880 That actually worked out. The 3D printing for the controllers was quite good. >> Almost as good as the Segway. 564 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:25,200 >> To our sponsor, >> Squarespace.
