Screen too bright while watching Netflix? This is the solution

Are you unable to adjust the brightness of your smartphone screen when watching Netflix and do you find the image too bright? Then there is one working solution and we will explain it step by step here.

Netflix: HDR content is much too bright

There are tens of millions of Netflix subscribers worldwide. You can watch your favorite series, documentaries or films via a television, tablet or of course your smartphone. Many people have problems with the latter. The brightness of the screen while watching cannot be adjusted. Not in the app itself, but not via the phone settings.

For example, the screen here is at a very low brightness in the evening, but if I open something on Netflix I can often light up the entire room. The problem occurs with so-called HDR content, which stands for . The differences between the maximum brightness and darkness of the screen are then greater than content without an HDR stamp. This should make the image stand out more and details be more visible.

Normally you can adjust the brightness via a button on the left while watching, but for many people this does not work when they view HDR content. You can check this with every film, series or documentary using icons. In addition to HDR, you can also see, for example, whether it was recorded in HD or 4K resolution.

Various solutions are also circulating online, all of which we have tested. Only one worked and that solution is not even ideal. Does the smartphone screen become too bright when you start Netflix? Then grab your phone and follow the steps below.

  1. Open the settings and tap ‘Apps’;
  2. Find ‘Netflix’ in the list and tap it;
  3. Tap ‘Storage & Cache’;
  4. Clear the storage and cache.

You need to log in again

Please note, because once you have performed the above steps, you will have to log in to the Netflix app again. But, there is still a catch. You have to use the digital slider in the app itself to adjust the brightness do not use anymore (with HDR content). If you touch it anyway, the screen will immediately shine at its brightest again until you repeat the steps again.

Should the screen shine a little brighter or less brightly while viewing? Then you have to adjust the overall brightness of the display in your phone’s settings itself – and that’s a bit annoying.

There are more solutions to this problem on the internet that you can try. For example, certain versions of the app are said not to have this problem. You can try to install an older version of Netflix yourself by .

Sometimes restarting your phone can work. It is also said that you have to activate the picture-in-picture mode and then switch back to the app itself, after which the brightness can be adjusted again.

If you have installed a third-party app to control the brightness or adjust the blue light level, turn that off as well. Finally, you can check whether you have enabled a special image enhancer in the settings.

Remnant 2: Forgotten Field Puzzle Solution


In the world of Yaesha you can reach the area “Forgotten Field”. In the area you not only meet a lot of opponents, but also a puzzle. The riddle is a kind of “pedestal riddle”, which can also be found in other areas such as the Imperial Gardens and must be solved. In the puzzle you have to set the right symbols on the round base. The pedestal is in a hidden room behind a wall in front of the tower. The only question is, where can you find the symbols for the socket in the forgotten field?

Forgotten Field: Symbols Puzzle Solution

In order to find out the correct symbols for the “symbols puzzle” on the pedestal, you have to move to the big tower in the forgotten field. The location of the tower can also be seen in the screenshot below.

  1. At the bottom of the tower is a door through which you can go and activate the elevator behind it. The elevator is automatically activated via the floor switch as soon as you go through the door. Instead of taking the elevator up, you now have to exit the elevator first. So run onto the floor switch and run straight out again. Then you have to pay attention to which symbols can be seen on the elevator while it is going up.
  2. The pedestal with the symbols can be found just below the tower behind the magic wall that you can just walk through.
  3. Finally, interact with the base and adjust the symbols visible on the elevator from the outside to the inside. The solution to the riddle in the forgotten field looks like this (possibly different for some players, since the worlds are partly randomly generated).
  4. A door will then open behind the pedestal with the symbols. Behind the door is the Blossoming Heart relic. The blossoming heart spawns a healing orb, which heals you and nearby allies and regenerates 35 percent of your life points. However, the healing also has a downside, as the first healing from the relic is reduced by 35 percent.

Where do you actually get more relic fragments in Remnant 2 and how can you improve the relic?

Remnant 2 the Red Throne Solution: Secret Door?

In the world of Yaesha you will find the area “The Red Throne”. In the red throne you meet some opponents but also the empress. The Empress is behind the big door at the end of the red throne. After a short cutscene you can choose different options as an answer and depending on which answer you choose, you will be rewarded with different items.

The Red Throne solution

In the red throne you will find a large door at the end of the area and behind it is the empress. You can now take different paths with the empress and either help her to get rid of the devastator or you don’t comply with her request and end up in prison. We have created a short summary with a solution for the effects of this.

  • Empress help to kill the boss: In the dialogue, the empress speaks of the boss opponent in the form of the devastator. One answer option is to help her defeat the Ravager. For this you have to select the option “Kill the beast. nothing easier than that”. As a reward for the battle you get the ring called “The Seal of the Empress” with which the max health is increased by 20 and the max stamina is reduced by 10.
  • Don’t Help the Empress: If you don’t help the Empress and choose the option “I won’t get on my knees and I certainly won’t kill for you” instead, the guards will turn on you and you will die. But don’t worry, because you are not dead permanently, but wake up in the prison in the red throne. You can easily leave the prison by following the path out, killing the enemies and then going through the transparent door in the wall at the end. This will land you back in front of the room with the empress in the red throne. With the “prison break” you get help from an NPC, from which you also get the Zohees ring.

You can also hand in the decorated chest to the Empress. You can either open the ornate chest yourself with the ornate key and use it to get the offspring of the thaen, or you can give the chest to the empress. As a reward there is the amulet Red Doe Sigil.

Open secret door in red throne?

There is a locked door to the left and right of the Empress. Since there are some locked doors in Remnant 2, for which you first have to find the right key, one or the other player is probably wondering how to open the secret door. The short answer to the question is, you cannot open the doors to the left and right of the Empress in the Red Throne. The only secret door in the area is the exit door from the prison.

Tip: This is how the difficulty level in Remnant 2 can be changed afterwards.

Baldur’s Gate 3 can overwhelm you and the solution if you get stressed is within Baldur’s Gate 3 itself

I don’t know if it’s a matter of having recently reached thirty, but one of the things that relaxes me the most in the world is washing the dishes calmly while listening to a podcast. I think there is nothing strange about it, because there are several sources that talk about how tidying up and cleaning the outside can have a positive effect when we have some internal disorder in our mind.

And if I talk about mess these past few weeks, my characters’ inventory in Baldur’s Gate 3 comes to mind after spending a few hours in a dungeon. The accumulation of silver cutlery, valuable weapons for sale but useless in the hands of my characters, and potions of all kinds, generates a certain apprehension every time I press tab.

In a game so dense in terms of history and narrative, with so many things to do and a huge map, sometimes it is necessary to stop so that our head does not burn out completely and we have to stop playing. It’s always nice to go for a walk, especially after long sessions of Baldur’s Gate 3, but if you feel overwhelmed soon after starting your game, I have the perfect solution.

And I found myself in that situation. I didn’t give much importance to the issue of my characters’ inventory until I filled the duffel bag of one of them and it began to go around the world. That was the moment when he hit the parking brake and seek a solution within Baldur’s Gate 3 itself.

It will give you peace of mind to order your inventory like this

To order is to win.

My main character is a scout whose goal is to become the best archer ever. Therefore, in my inventory there is no lack of arrows of all kinds, or potions, oils and poisons everywhere. This on paper is very useful, but the reality is that inventory is a completely impassable mess.

As the mob does, Baldur’s Gate 3 gives you both the problem and the solution. During your adventures you will find many bags, which may seem to you to lack the meaning they have in other games like World of Warcraft, since storage in BG3 does not have a limit of cells but of total weight. And that is a mistake.

My life in Baldur’s Gate 3 changed when I started using those bags. to store each kind of similar object and keep them sorted. A bag for the arrows, another for the potions and Gale (the magician) keeps another one with all the scrolls that he can learn to have them located. It may seem like a waste of time, but I assure you that in the long run you will save yourself a lot of headache when looking for a certain specific item.

In the same way, I recommend you make use of functions such as “mark as merchandise” to quickly sell all the garbage you find, sorted by type and weight in the upper left when tabulating, and even use the characters themselves like bags: if you don’t have enough, what Karlach whoever carries the gems and ingots, or Astarion the merchandise and thus get more money thanks to his charisma.

Remnant 2 Column of Ruthlessness Puzzle Solution


Where to find the pillared hall of ruthlessness in Remnant 2? How to solve the torch puzzle in the pillared hall? In the past few days, one or the other player of the new Remnant 2, who is currently on the road in Losomn, will perhaps be dealing with this question. Depending on which “variant” you play from the Losomn world, you will find different areas there. If you play the area with the palace, you can get into the pillared hall of ruthlessness via a somewhat hidden entrance. In the columned hall you not only meet a boss, but you also have to solve a small torch puzzle. In this article we have created a short guide with a solution for Column of Ruthlessness.

Find Hypostyle Hall of Ruthlessness

The Hypostyle Hall of Ruthlessness is east of the palace courtyard. To reach the area in Losomn, one must proceed as follows.

  1. Travel to the Palace of Bliss and follow the path down to the library using the elevator to the left of the door.
  2. Follow the path further down until you come to a library. Run up the stairs through the back door and on the wall above you can already see a reference to one of the magic doors, which you have to activate and open with the magic quill from the fool in the Palace of Happiness. To reach the page you have to jump on the bookshelves (see screenshot).
  3. You can now activate the magic door with the magic quill and then use it to get to the pillared hall of ruthlessness.

Boss and puzzles in the pillared hall

As already mentioned, you will now encounter some opponents and the boss opponent named Magister Dullain in the columned hall. There is also a torch puzzle waiting at the end, which can be solved as follows.

  1. In the torch puzzle you have to light up the five torches on both sides in the same color, i.e. either blue or white.
  2. Shooting the torch changes color. The tricky thing about the puzzle is that not only does the torch you hit change color, but also those around it. But with a bit of experimenting, you’ll get it relatively easy. It is important that the colors must be identical on both the left and the right side.

Left to right:

  • 1. Torch – Torch 1 and 2 will change color
  • 2. Torch – Torch 1, 2 and 3 Torch will change color
  • 3. Torch – Torch 2, 3 and 4 torch will change color
  • 4. Torch – Torch 3, 4 and 5 torch will change color
  • 5. Torch – Torch 4 and Torch 5 will change color

Remnant 2: The Nameless Nest Puzzle Solution

In the world of Yaesha you will find the area “The Nameless Nest”. In the nameless nest you not only have to deal with a few enemies and a boss, but there is also a riddle to solve. More specifically, this is the pedestal puzzle found in other areas such as the Imperial Gardens. In the socket puzzle you have to set the right symbols, but how do you figure out the symbols and their order? If you are asking yourself the same question, our short solution for the area can certainly help you.

The Nameless Nest Solution: This is how the puzzle works

  1. For the “pedestal puzzle” you first have to run to the tower in the nameless nest. Instead of going up the tower, you have to step onto the floor switch and then exit the elevator straight away.
  2. Now the elevator goes up and you can see four symbols on the sides. The symbols show the solution to the pedestal puzzle. By the way, you don’t have to remember the rising symbols, you can just look at the tower from afar.
  3. Finally, you have to find the pedestal. The pedestal is behind an invisible door in front of the tower (see screenshot). Just walk towards the wall between the two stairs and behind it you can set the symbols on the base that you can see on the tower.

Since the worlds and areas in Remnent 2 are partly random, the solution shown in the screenshot may not work for some players. The best way to find the solution is to simply look for yourself which symbols are visible on the tower.

How can you actually unlock the adventure mode in Remnant 2 and then change the level of difficulty afterwards?

Remnant 2: Oracle’s Refuge Solution

In the new Remnant 2 you will find the area “Oracle’s Refuge” in the world of Losomn, among other things. In the area you will also find a more or less extensive quest or puzzle. Near the checkpoint “Oracle’s Refuge” you can climb up the ladder into a house and in the room you will find the Dran Oracle and several Dran Children. Also striking is the large carpet on the floor, where you can already see some pictures depending on the progress of the game. Both the children and the lady at the loom don’t show much of a reaction when you walk into the room and try to talk to them. If you try to interact with the lady, she is not particularly talkative. The question arises, what do you have to do to solve the Oracle’s Refuge? What item do you have to give her so that she can talk to you and start the puzzle?

Oracle of the Dran: find child

In order to start the “Oracle’s Refuge” puzzle in Morrow Township, you must first find two children. The two children are hiding somewhere in the parish of Morrow. Once you spot them or get close to them, the child locations will also appear on the map with a blue icon and “Dran Child.” Since the locations are random according to previous information, you have to search the area a little and sooner or later you will find something.

After speaking to the children, they will automatically run into the house of the old lady who is indicated on the map with the Dran oracle. After rescuing the two children, you can also talk to the Oracle of Dran and get the recovery property on the one hand and the second and much more extensive part of the “Oracle’s Refuge” puzzle on the other.

Refuge of the Oracle solution

In the second part you now have to complete 12 different tasks or do enemies and bosses. Each time you defeat a boss, an image of the enemy will appear on the lady’s rug. As a reward for the task you get the All-Seeing Eye. When using the All-Seeing Eye you either get a random buff or a random debuff.

  • Faelin/Faerin—Beatific Palace/Malefic Palace
  • The Feast – Great Hall
  • Postulant’s Parlor – Postulant’s Parlor
  • Manticore – Harvester’s Reach
  • Bloat King—Great Sewers
  • The Burning Man – Butchers Quarter
  • The Red Prince – Gilded Chamber
  • Nightweaver-Morrow Sanatorium
  • Magister Dullain – Shattered Gallery
  • The Huntress—Forsaken Quarter
  • The Council—Council Chamber
  • Gwendil the Unburnt—Cotton’s Kiln

This article about the Oracle’s Refuge puzzle in Remnant 2 is still under construction. More information and the exact locations of the opponents will follow here shortly.

Tip: In the community of Morrow and there in the insane asylum you can also find a safe. In another article we already described how to find the safe code for the vault in the parish of Morrow.
