Tell me yours, preferably open source
I'm looking for you new stuff, I want to replace Sumatra PDF and Musicbee

 

What do anons use to take photos of their PC, just the ingame screenshot or some third party one?

I heard those are not safe cause they're uploaded somewhere else, but I Imagine it must be convenient

Also does anybody use those game launchers that bunch up game launchers? how do they even work that cross platofrm stuff

 

>>16954
Idk if I was paranoid about my shitty ass screenshots getting uploaded my pc would be wrapped in foil already

 

>>16954
I use ShareX, it's open source, and ScreenToGif (also open source) for gifs/webms/etc. I think ShareX can take video as well but I prefer ScreenToGif a little more in that regard since it has an editor. Both great programs though.
https://www.screentogif.com/
https://getsharex.com/

 

>>16957
i did not know sharex as open source, nice
screentogif sounds awesome

there's no short video capture thingy for PCs really,

i was trying out lightscreen,

are there any open source FPs monitor programs, the whole riva tuner thing doesn't work without MSI's afterburner stuff

 

Anybody got a thing with which you can control your PC with your phone?

 

>>16993

>>16993
That's retarded

 

youtube-dl / yt-dlp + mpv (+ tor) = (anonymous) online media consumption from the terminal, faster and more stable transfers than from a web player

bash/python/c/… = they're some kind of "languages" that let you create your own programs somehow

>>17014
Nah, it's a brilliant idea if you find the correct (and secure) use case. Turn your phone into a remote for media playback for instance.

 

>>17012
>HexChat, which is dedicated to IRC
Hexchat's download page for windows is hilarious, they have a buy hexchat for $5 button on top and then download the free installer right below it.

 

>>16953
I just found out that neither mpv or mpc support browsing a blu-ray for extras

there is no king
all are fake

i downloaded this BDVM for nothing! I WANTED TO SEE THE EXTRAS

 

>>17029
>proprietary format doesn't work with a FOSS player
you could always rip the raw video files of the extras and convert them into an open format

 

>>17031
Proprietary software needs to be outlawed after the revolution

We will build a state funded CD format

I just gave up, I wanted L&T extras but the one I downloaded didn't have it


Time to join a private tracker
Also fuck all these HDR formats, I messed with VLC, MadVR, MPC-HC, MPV settings until I realized I needed a Dolby HDR Monitor

>>17027
I use the yt-dl fork now, It downloads faster than the og one for some reason, ytp-dl

handbrake, the best encoding software fr fr

>>17012
>GUI for FFmpeg
YES!!!

 

>Media Preview

Is this the best thumbnail making software or do I need to…?
I can't find any other

 

>>16953
https://babelsoft.net/products/mediapreview.htm

I found the official site for media preview, i don't know who babelsoft is but i've heard about them before

They make good stuff, Install K-Lite Codec if you want just .webms to have previews

But I like it when my TV show files all don't have the same thumbnail as well

 

>>17032
>ytp-dl
Thanks for tip anon

 

>>17172
ytp-dl
it only downloads youtube poops
do you think the new restriction with 4k, it'll still be able to download 4k stuff?

 

>>17186
Just found out about that, what a bullshit policy. You could try downloading stuff that's already under youtube premium like movies. If it works 4K ones propably will as well.

 

>>17186
What new restriction are you talking about? I'm still able to download 4k videos with yt-dlp

 

What are some good softwares to update my drivers? Driver booster is shit in every way imaginable.

finally free’d me from wine after replacing the last windows app i needed (foobar200, because of the vgm plugins)

 

>>25413
Krita is more featureful
MS Paint's beauty is in its simplicity and intuitiveness
These >>25412 are good
