    Oh dang, okay I like the variety of UI setups.  Seems pretty simple to find all the tracks if all I have to do is tell it where they are.  I'll give it a go!

    It's pretty simple, you just show it the file path to your music and it all appears in the program. To search for specific songs, you can use the search bar or just sort everything alphabetically by artist/album/song title. To keep the UI looking cleaner, I hid the search bar and keybound searches to Ctrl + F. The Audacity looking part is the waveform for the song, which also doubles as your seekbar. Waveforms come in handy when you're trying to find a specific part of a song that you know's at a different level of loudness. Eventually you'll just start to recognize the waveforms for your whole library. There are much more flashy and eye-grabby themes, I just kept it minimalistic and tried to display as much track information as possible at once. I also made it look bland by having everything colored grey and white. Lol. It's endlessly customizable, they just vary in difficulty to implement. Here are some other themes:

    They should output fine as long as you have a good application for media playback. For videos I suggest VLC, but for audio I suggest Foobar2000. Foobar is probably the most comprehensive and customizable of the bunch. I use a custom theme on mine, which I could be coerced into making a short tutorial for and attaching a theme file.

    Thank you my friend, you helped me out a lot.  My main concern was just making sure the FLAC files I have would output properly.

    Aside from drivers, the DAC should function properly without any additional assistance. DSD playback should also be fully functional out of box as far as I'm aware. That's not really a feature to enable/disable, it's just a supported audio codec. In order to even use it, you need access to DSD files. Same goes for FLAC, just a supported codec. ASIO on the other hand is set on a more program-by-program basis. It's an audio driver intended for low-latency use when it matters. For example, I only use it when I'm in FL Studio.
     
    When it comes to the bit-depth and sample rate settings, they don't really matter much. They're more of a potential output setting, they won't impact sound quality in any way unless the bit-depth or sample rate of the file you're playing is higher than your DACs output setting. Some programs won't function properly on too high of a setting though. For example, Foobar2000 (at least my version) bugs out if I have my DAC set to anything higher than 24-bit/192kHz. Again though, if you don't have files of that resolution you'll notice no difference.
     
    Unless you have a Quobuz or Amazon Music subscription, pay thousands for hi-res digital copies of all your music, or are playing Cap'n Jack Sparrow breaking copyright laws, you won't be accessing files of that caliber anyways. I use a combination of all of the above, mostly the latter.

    Ah, figured it out.  For some reason there were extra drivers under the optional updates tab in Windows..works fine now.

    You can disable them at the moment. Once that line is crossed, I woudln't have trust in this remaining the case forever.

    Java reacted to soldier_ph in [Updated] The Design of the 2020 Motorola Razr 5G has been leaked   
    Summary
    Lenovo has hosted an event for Investors presumably this past week to not only talk about financials but also to show off the new 2020 Redesign of the Motorola Razr. The Photos which have been published on the Chinese Social Media Network Weibo show a fresh design overhall of the Razr, removing some of it's bulk from the previous Version which was announced in 2019 and was heavily critized by Tech YouTubers and the Press for it's bulky and unhandy feeling. The new Version is not only rumored to come with a new Redesign but it's also believed to pack a 5G Modem and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 765, also they removed the front facing Fingerprint reader which was Housed in the Chin of the 2019 Model.

    My thoughts
    To me the 2020 Redesign looks much slimmer and sexier but Foldables like this too will just be as fragile and vulnerable to accidental scuffs, scratches and bends that went too far back. Keen to see if they figured out a better solution to protect the Plastic OLED Screen from scratches and fingernail imprints. Also this has been my first Tech News post so feel free to also give me feedback on that.
     
    Update:
    MKBHD is the first to release a video of the Razr 2 and it is exactly what you've seen in the pictures above:

    For a $300 closed back that is easy to drive and good enough to distinguish flacs and mp3s or at least unforgiving enough. Maybe a pair of ath msr7 really good headphones I loved to use for mixing and monitoring. Really unforgiving  and detailed headphone.

    Subjective. You trying to claim it being the best tablet in the world as a fact is wrong.
     
    I disagree. Most of the time, various devices' shortcomings and issues are far more important than what they do well and as such it is generally a good thing to pay more attention to the shortcomings and issues. Also, in general, I find LTT's videos on Apple's devices to be perfectly fair.
