Gregory's ServerI haven't been able to browse the javascript web for weeks now, I miss watching music videos on youtube most of all.. I'll have so much stuff to catch up on over the winter, kind of looking forward to that.

 @neauoire when i used to use links (on the linux console) full-time i relied on youtube-dl and mplayer for that. it worked really well, although i don't think i ever figured out how to make it do the thing automatically (and lacking cut'n'paste, i got really good at remembering random 11-character strings ;-) nowadays i use yt-dlp, but the principle is the same @millihertz At 3-4kb/s it usually fails after 700kb into a download. I could yt-dl very short clips haha @neauoire @millihertz could you ssh to a server, download it there, and reencode down to something that'll download faster? @easrng @millihertz I won't be able to download it from the server, but that might be a good way to collect things in the meantime mhmm  @neauoire @millihertz I guess grabbing the 144p versions with yt-dl would still be too much? 😀 Very often I just grab the audio stream with yt-dlp or NewPipe. YouTube is filled to the brim with media where the video stream adds little or *nothing* to the experience or understanding. There are 50 kbps Opus streams to be had. They're near transparent to the original audio (for speech). But they're probably still too big (depending on the clip length)…  |
