On most Linux package managers these days, FFmpeg is built with support for hardware encode, decode, and filtering out of the box.

by AndrewUnmuted 5y ago
Perhaps as an interface to `ffplay`, but it's certainly not complete enough to be the GUI for `ffmpeg`.

by AndrewUnmuted 5y ago
Yeah, I think a more workable "interface" to the complexities of FFmpeg would be some sort of terminal "shell" application that allows the user to easily tab-complete their command and visually separate out the command&#

The way to do it is to meet the farmer. We had a nice hour long walk & talk with the farmer we went with here in middle TN. He gave us $50 worth of free samples at the end and checked in with us a few times to see if we were able to get

It's true; it is. This year I bought half of a red angus cow straight from the farm. It turns red when it gets cooked. It's a sight to behold. The stuff you buy at the costco has been frozen and unfrozen at least twice before you

I am in audio and routinely sit in 400k+ listening rooms. Those folks would be embarrassed to mention those rooms contained things as goofy as this. It's excessive and unreasonable.

Perhaps it would! But the userbase is definitely what finally got me into FreeBSD. The fact that hobbyists were contributing such excellent cli tools as `iocage` [0] and `vm-bhyve` [1] really is what got me over my fears. [0] https:/&

FreeBSD's appeal for me is the easy maintenance. Everything related to config is in /etc/rc.conf; tunables in /boot/loader.conf. The ZFS implementation is rock-solid. I therefore only have to fiddle with my FreeBSD

I'm not so sure about that. Perhaps during the hobbyist era of PCs, this was the case. But, I distinctly remember a world during the "dominance" of the PC that forced me to work with proprietary software just to be able to ty

There have been many other high-profile examples of fiascos dealing with the 'dislike' button on YouTube. Most notable, I think, would have to be the Biden administration's [0] challenges they're facing with the official

I remember when Windows had to be subjected to lots of different downloaded freeware applications to "unlock" full customization of the OS. macOS is in these days at the moment. What does that say about its product arc?

Something like this could be done with a format like WavPack [0] I imagine. The Two Big Ears "spatial audio" format is just a repackaged WavPack file, after all, and that handles 10 channels of simultaneous audio playback even in

I presume you would apply the same logic to those in your own nation that smoke cigarettes, who don't get enough physical exercise, and who eat poorly - yes? Those all appear to be far more likely indicators of hospitalization than you

Uber also engage in mafioso tactics, I am sure all here can agree on this. The difference is where the impact is felt. It's great that for now, Uber can ensure a higher-class experience than what was available to most previously. Howev
