Is there any point in trying to run something in 4K when all I have is max 1080 screen?

It all depends on the rest of your system.

If you have the CPU grunt to play 3K and 4K clips, then YES. Use them. Even on a Lower resolution screen.

There is a noticeable advantage to the 3K and 4K clarity, even on lower resolution screens.
But you MUST have the CPU grunt to take advantage of it.


At Home,
one PC I have is a low level laptop with a 1366 x 768 screen.
It can run 720p clips well. and it even runs the 1080p standing clips ok.
but a 1080p table clip with sound, it struggles with.
I can hear the sound stutter and even see it in the playback.
It can't run a 3K clip smoothly, so I don't use 3K or 4K on it.. It Can't handle them...


All too often, I read about playback issues, choppy sound, the video isn't smooth...
and then you later find out that the member
doesn't have a system capable to use the resolution of clips they are trying to use.

That is why, I recommend to use the clip resolution that best fits the Screen size.

Many Laptops, only had enough CPU performance to Support the Screen size they came with.
Trying to use a 4K clip on a 1080p laptop screen, might not give the best results.


But on the other hand, a PC or Laptop with a powerful CPU, Might be able to handle the 4K clips on a Lower resolution screen.

So while I say, Use the resolution that best fits your Screen
I really mean...
each member will have to select the clip resolution that performs best for their overall system.

if people don't support and only pirate VR on here Totem will quit making them

As I said, no problem for me, I don't buy VR shows, they are to expensive.
If they stop making VR shows they could concentrate again on fixing errors with cards and tags that have benn reported almost a year ago (and are still not fixed).

I know about the other sites but if people don't support and only pirate VR on here Totem will quit making them. The production value here is worth it.

so VR Nude Tease 10 minute for 30 credits XXX 20 minute 60 crecdits.

I thought you were talking about cards, not VR shows, because I don't buy VR shows anyway.

And 30credits for a 10min VR show is already to expensive, when you look at VR sites, there you get a monthly account for like 20€ and you can download all existing VR movies (for some sites that's over 100 movies of at least 30min lenght each movie).

@zzmaskers In one of her new Vids she is in the VR room. I was thinking of a VR Nude Tease with her is why that was posted.

@Ullubu if we got a twice as long XXX shows the only way that could happen is to incentivise Totem letting them know it would be worth it.

so VR Nude Tease 10 minute for 30 credits XXX 20 minute 60 crecdits.

Yeah my hope is that they double the XXX time to 20 minutes and charge twice as much then girls that do full nude just do a 10 minute strip tease and charge for the price it is now. Just a thought though.

What has this to do with the topic Kristina?

my hope is that they double the XXX time to 20 minutes

Yes

and charge twice as much

No

Yeah my hope is that they double the XXX time to 20 minutes and charge twice as much then girls that do full nude just do a 10 minute strip tease and charge for the price it is now. Just a thought though.

In the Vid she is in the VR room does this mean VR Tease Strip?

It doesn't necessarily mean it.
Moreover, VR videos usually are XXX, and Kristina doesn't do XXX secnes.
So I find more than probable that there will be no VR video of her.

From the previews, the card appears to be quite badly over-exposed.

The actual card is too, even in 4K, so I hope it will be fixed, if possible.

In the Vid she is in the VR room does this mean VR Tease Strip? If not when can we expect next VR show? Can we get a schedule of any kind?

From the previews, the card appears to be quite badly over-exposed. Are there plans to correct this?

Panties are always sexy! Especially upskirt panties such as Angie Line, Emy Russo, Vicky Love, and Mikki!
Of course, There are special panmties such as bare ass Li Moon and upskirt crotchless Lucy Li!

Omg i love d the Movie Species, didn't think many ppl remembered this as I almost forgot myself..& I think their weir 2 later Sequils

lol yup! ✌😎

Agreed with the general consensus that there's nothing new a girl with 10+ shows can show outside of really going totally hardcore or catering to some extreme niche.

Thank you for sharing what were the best sellers. Its interesting to see what was selling well and I'm always fascinated by the data/statistics.

Edit: Lots of variety! Love the transparency. Only a few of these I didn't purchase and I'm surprised they are on the best sellers. 2019 was a good year for shows, looking forward to 2020!

We had a holographic poster of Natasha Henstridge in this movie and it was amazing. Love to see a cosplay of this show.

Natasha Henstridge - yummy!

I'll go along with ears & tails Alien look for Angelica Grey......it be fun!!

Lol most definitely! I'm thinkin a H.R. Giger or Species type suit though...

OMG YES PLEASE TOTEM MAKE IT HAPPEN!!! Angelika Grays as "Species Cosplay" would be fn amazing!!! 😍😍😍

Hmmm...I am just curious if I will see a noticable difference in quality from 3K to 4K on my monitor hmmm...

I'd like to see Angelika as a hologram in a sci-fi/space babe themed outfit stripping in my bedroom with a groovy disco light and sensual atmospheric music 💖😍💖

I have a new 4k monitor. I would say in my experience that there is a noticable difference going from 3K to 4k. However...the difference is not as large as going from 1080p to 3k..not even close.

i know if Lorena were back she would be talent of the month also.

no xxx... no reason to buy... have more than enough cards from her...

Kristina is still a real babe.😍
I would love to have her company for dinner😉

Thans @gkar45 for being objective in your responses.

I have bought the card and I enjoyed it - but that is possibly because the way she uses the outfit appeals to me. She has slowed down - her pole work is not as fluid or extravagant. And I would say she looks unsure of herself - in quite a few clips you can see her looking to the director or at a monitor or something for direction.

I had bought around three of her previous shows - with the outfits she wore then her shows were all very similar. We will have to see if she introduces any more variety.

As I said in my comments on the show, it is nice to have the variety to appeal to different tastes - I would prefer that we do not go completely down the more hard-core route as in Gia Ren's last showw.

I had liked to see Angelika in at least 4 e-cards.

I'd like to see Angelika in a fuzzy ears/plug set! 🐱😈

@zzmaskers

the model selection has changed with more big-breasted

It should have been said slightly more models with big breast. in any case, there are also members who like this. I do (of course, only natural ones).

My Talent of the Year 2019: Angelike Grays, who is the most complete of all

On this, though, I do fully agree.

Nici's success is way below what she deserves

And on this stating by @celine I agree too.

Is there any point in trying to run something in 4K when all I have is max 1080 screen? I can't see the difference

We can discute about opportunity to use 4K and 3K on lower resolution screen.
But for me it can not be denied there is a difference (which for my eyes it's a quite big one) in crispness and in detail going from 1080p to 3K and from 3K from 4K - on a lower resolution monitor, also.

Hello Celine. How are you? Can we please get Nici Dee Take 3?

Video quality of full card is also bad, even in 4K. Strange, since cards released after cam change had always been good, until today.

interesting how can not Nici be in list.

We absolutely agree! I consider that Nici's success is way below what she deserves! She has a fantastic body and torrid behaviour!

Best Sellers 2019
Of the 28 best sellers I have bought 7 (25%). Totally I have bought 40% of the released cards of 2019. That’s much lower than in the years before! Then I bought 60% (2018, 2017) or more (2016 70%, 2015 65%) of the cards.
The cause: the model selection has changed with more big-breasted (real and fake) models in 2019. Other reasons: more f-cards and the many Take 2’s and Take 3’s.
There were weeks I didn’t buy any cards. This hadn’t happened since 2013 (except during vacation)!
If there are 2 cards a week I really like, than I’m still a satisfied customer and can feel at home at iStripper, but it’s not like it was before!!!!

iStripper wants to serve all different tastes, but imo the result is a more diffuse image of where it stands for.

• January: Avery - The Allman Friend
• February: Lovenia Lux - The Actress

My Talent of the Year 2019: Angelike Grays, who is the most complete of all, with imo the best show of 2019 After Midnight/e1289
My personal favorite of 2019: glamour model Alice Wonder.

My personal Talent of the Month January 2020: Isabelle - PLus Belle que Belle.

Of course more Angelika Grays!!!! For me The Talent of the Year 2019 (and nobody else!)

The video quality of the card is garbage too (judging by the preview).

Elis, on the other hand (in comparison with Katrina), smiles and teases, moves and struts, seduces and is dressed to get attention. Rates >5!

A 'must buy'!

Please tell me there will be more Angelika Grays!!!! 😍

Totally agree. I'm considering setting up a Protest Demo outside the Totem offices, with placards and stuff. If Thunberg can do it, so can we! You up for it?

Je suis tout a fait d'accord avec DrDoom9. Je ne sais pas ce qui lui est arrivé mais ce n'est plus du tout la meme,je suis énormement décu par cette carte, dans ses anciennes carte elle etait souriante et elle dansait bien.
Dans ce show elle est tout le contraire ont a l'impression qu'elle fait ce show sous la contrainte 😟
Il aurait mieux fallu qu'elle ne revienne pas😢

I'm contemplating buying the card...looks like her ass got a bit meatier 😎

Please tell me there will be more Angelika Grays!!!! 😍😍😍😍

Now her face has filled out, the hair looks ill-kempt, in the previews she looks haughty and bored, and the outfit is a passion *****.

I fully agree. This card is a diasapointment. Don't waste your credits, like I did.

What has happened to her?

I have all her earlier cards, usually rating her 5. She smiled, she danced well.

Now her face has filled out, the hair looks ill-kempt, in the previews she looks haughty and bored, and the outfit is a passion *****.

I'm sure there will be many who disagree, but I'm not buying.

interesting how can not Nici be in list.

@Wyldanimal Is there any point in trying to run something in 4K when all I have is max 1080 screen? I can't see the difference is this just a memory hog for me?

I'm not wyldanimal but have heard him say it many a time - pick the resolution that's goes with your monitor. 4K on 1080p is having to be downscaled and unless you have a powerful PC it's just going to work harder and run hotter. That said I can see the difference as I have a 1440p 144hz monitor and the 4K is amazing. I want to sometimes cut off my older 3K cards as they don't come alive as the newer cards do.

I, instead, like much the other features of my Premium membership. Above all, the discount on all new cards. And also the Joker card i got.

I mean if I was more active on the site then yeah the "premium" features would have more use for me, but as of now they don't really serve me any purpose...but hey who knows...things always change! ✌😎

@willyweekly

In this case someone mentioned that it might be an advertising ploy on the part of Totem.

However, usually when this happens it is just that the person making the .png file at Totem forgot to resize it to 1500 pixel height instead of the 4500 or so that it is originally, which results in giantess syndrome in the 'releases' carousel.

They'll fix it tomorrow and the girls will all be back to normal.

Or if it is a marketing stunt then maybe not and they will stay larger than life.

While this looks funny, I am wondering if there is a reason for it.

the other comments can be about gian women.... etc....

@Wyldanimal Is there any point in trying to run something in 4K when all I have is max 1080 screen? I can't see the difference is this just a memory hog for me?

Totems customers are paying money for new hardware to run 4k clips but then the Istripper app itself is the bottleneck and not using all the RAM customers actually would have available.

What is the point of adding an option to preload the clips instead of streaming them when some of the 4k clips with audio would benefit from more than 4GB of RAM?

Can you share how long customers will have to wait for a 64 bit version of the app?

The Most I've experienced a Single 4K clip using on it's own was about 1.2 GB of RAM.

I haven't experienced a low RAM issue until I had more than 5 Girls in 4K playing at the same time.
I have even managed to get 10 4K clips playing if I selected the clips based on Time Carefully.
So that All the clips combined would fit within the available Memory to a 32 Bit App.


So the 32 Bit App Memory limit really doesn't become an Issue till you start to play More then 5 4K sized clips at a time.


The Issue you describe using Music, would not be a Memory issue, so much as a CPU processor Issue.

Streaming of the Clips allow the Clip to Start to play once enough of it has been loaded into Memory.
But Now you are also putting a higher Load on the CPU. Backfill the Memory and PLay the CLip and Music

Turning off Streaming of the Clip, might add a short delay, as the Entire Clip must be Loaded into Memory before it begins to Play. But that reduce the CPU load a bit..

Also, Playing a 4K clip on a Non-4K screen eats up TONS of CPU cycles.
Every frame of the Clip has to be Reduced in Size to fit your Screen.

So the same that has been said many times before applies.
Use the Clip Resolution that Best fits your Screen Size.

This will make the Best use of your CPU cycles.
Resizing gets very Hungry. That is the same for Up sizing or Down sizing the clip.

the bottom of the GUI appear for a second and then are gone

That to me sounds like an ad / popup blocker at work...
