yup! I had to ask Claude to give me a proper guide because their github is a bit confusing

>Foobar with Georgia Reborn
this looks amazing but also very difficult to set up

has any of you used music player daemon
apparently it interacts directly with hardware and its supposed to be good, but you need an interface for it

>>781314
Oh yeah Elisa is also nice, I remember Rhythmbox? was also a good choice. But for Hyprland.. not sure.

linux (arch, btw)
i used to run elisa back when i was using fedora kde but now i'm on hyprland and want something that looks clean you know

You didn't mention if Linux or Windows, for Linux my go to player was Strawberry, it was fast and looked nice.

foobar is great and super customizable but it can be annoying to setup exactly how you want it. i set mine up with a bunch of different shit but i couldnt recreate everything i did at this point and i just copy my install from pc to pc. i almost forgot to back it up one time and had no idea how to make it look how it used to.

>>781271
I use MusicBee for most music, and Foobar for DSD tracks. Both work great.

Foobar with Georgia Reborn so it looks nice and modern.

do you guys use dedicated music players
i've been just playing my flacs on mpv but its boring to have to manually open the songs everytime, plus having to open a new mpv windows everytime means i have to manually ajust its placement too

BASED chingu
need a snack1 live to test it out now

updated >>776600
tokens and api key no longer required!

>>780747
many also recommend using the nightly version instead of the normal one

>>780752
updating usually fixes that for me at least

>>780747
i noticed that too when trying to get a 4k mv it only had 1080p as the max choice
gooooooooooooglllllle is up to their usual trickery

wtf is this shit? where are the other formats

>>780262
maybe die

>>780251
Maybe ianchan will be up when easy dies. Maybe mokachan will too!

schan is still blocked, we have no alternative after easy shuts down

also if you're installing yt-dlp or other random python cli tools all the time, use uv
uv tool install yt-dlp
uv tool upgrade yt-dlp to update

>>779612
h265 with hardware acceleration (NVENC) is way faster than anything but it's not recommended if you want something with good quality, the encoder is "newish" and it's not as good as the normal h265 encoder, and vp9 would give you the same output, so you would need to try both to see which one is slightly faster for you

btw you wouldn't make a "h265 webm", since webm is the extension for vp9; for h265 you would be making an mp4, or just a clip

>>779753
make sure to read the whole Deno thing in this thread, yt-dlp alone is no longer enough to download something, and you should be using it on its own because of that, I doubt it will work out of the box with Boram

>core-testing/systemd 259.4-1
let's goooooo systemd sissies we eatin good today!

>>779753
plenty, it's a fork off youtube-dl itself

is there any alternative to yt-dlp?

>>779742
I know and I already tried it, it just shows a different error

>>779732
that probably happens because boram hasn't been updated in years and comes with a really old version of youtube-dl (now yt-dlp). replace that exe with the latest version from here: https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/releases

>>779641
I get this error after I click download, I tried different formats

>>779612
>should I make h265 webms or vp9 webms?
there's no right or wrong answer, the choice is really up to you. h265 offers better compression compared to vp9, which means higher quality output at a lower bitrate and filesize. h265 also has hardware acceleration which means it uses your gpu to encode and runs really fast. vp9 doesn't have this so it's slow to encode. the only reason people sometimes don't like h265 is because it's less commonly supported on websites and has stupid licences.
>picrel
I've not used boram before, but that looks like the yt-dlp format selection. av01+opus should be the best choice.

I am trying to learn how to make webms, I am using boram
my gpu is rtx 3070 gaming oc and my cpu is amd 5600x, 1440p monitor
I read about this but I am still confused, should I make h265 webms or vp9 webms? I read that making vp9 webms takes longer and is more taxing on my pc and cpu. should I stick to h265 webms? if I am going to make a h265 webm, what should the source video and audio formats be? (pic related). btw is the 24 fps thing normal?

>>779183
very nice

The widget should appear 2 hours before the show. Can close it any time.

Changed the syncwatch script, now it shows when a show is coming up.
https://pastebin.com/1dUtxyyb

It has a bell so it should give you a system notification 2 hours, 1 hour and 10 min. before a show.

>>779076
omo hope he sends soxinz after me haha
>>779064
yea they wouldn't like you doing that because it moves users away from their app, that's why objekt.top got a tos warning
they don't have an issue with recording and uploading afterwards though which is unusual considering replays are paywalled on the app

>>779076
whoa is s1 doing the job?

>>779064
yeah he'd send triples pegging squad after you

>>776600
do you think Jaden would hunt you down if you stream the lives on kick? you or any other fan

>>778132
Im on arch +hyrpland
Life is good

>>778132
i just use fedora KDE, nice and stable but you still get more up to date packages. I was on PopOS for a while but its kinda a piece of shit
