I'll tell you why I prefer two 27 inch monitors instead of an ultra wide. Ultra wide monitors often lack the vertical resolution I need, especially for video editing. I had to return mine because it didn't give me enough vertical space to work efficiently. Having two monitors side by side gives me the height I need for stacking multiple video tracks.

It's true, RUclips doesn't put much stock on tags anymore. A lot of people think tags are crucial, often due to the emphasis from various tools. But in reality, I've seen videos with no tags still become super popular. Tags are just minor suggestions to help with spelling variations in search, not a magic formula for popularity.

    • @Graphicious
      @Graphicious 21 час назад

      At the moment it's not possible to specify the language I think, it auto-detects it. Techsmith have confirmed that it detects the language and correctly transcribes in that language but I'm not sure if it supports kannada. It is whatever the "whisper ai" supports. Whisper is the engine that transcribes. Have you tested by adding an audio file in that language?

    Thanks for the video! I imported a MS Teams meeting recording into Descript. I identified my speakers and all looks good. However, it came in as one track, which I assume it's supposed to do, but is it possible to make it mult-track (or multi-cam) so I can do better editing (such as when speakers talk over each other, etc)?

    • @Graphicious
      @Graphicious День назад

      If you don't have the separate audio tracks from Teams, you can't separate them in Descript, I'm afraid. I know Zoom gives you separate tracks for each person (if you enable it before recording), but I'm not sure if Teams does.

    What the hell is he on about? 5120*1440 is literally the exact same height as 2560*1440 it's just two 1440p screen panels together with no seem. 7680*2160 also exist? This is just nonsense. 16:9 panels unless you're going really high like 5k+ have the exact same vertical resolution as their 21:9 and 32:9 counter parts. If you want more vertical resolution buy a creator monitor that's 16:10 or even 3:2. Here's another idea, turn your 16:9 monitor 90°. Wow, now you have 2160*3840, that's an enormous vertical amount of pixels.

    • @Graphicious
      @Graphicious 8 дней назад

      Actually, 4K, vertically is 2160 (twice the 1080, no?) So a 5K2K is 5120 x 2160. 1440 is quite a lot shorter. I used a widescreen 'gaming' monitor and I returned it immediately. It might be ok for gaming, but not practical for editing work. It was a Samsung Odyssey G9 I think.

    • @chrish4439
      @chrish4439 7 дней назад

      ​@@Graphicious Your reasoning doesn't even make sense in the first place. The amount of extra work space you get from a higher resolution is negligible due to you having to use scaling or else everything on the monitor is too small to read anyways. The reasoning is literally just "I like to put my monitors vertical so a widescreen doesn't make sense" You could have just said all that instead of blapping about nothing lol
