  • Just want to point out that you can download audio from a Youtube video using yt-dlp and the following options:

    -x, --extract-audio                               Convert video files to audio-only files (requires ffmpeg and
                                                      ffprobe)
    --audio-format FORMAT                             Format to convert the audio to when -x is used. (currently
                                                      supported: best (default), aac, alac, flac, m4a, mp3, opus,
                                                      vorbis, wav). You can specify multiple rules using similar syntax
                                                      as --remux-video
    --audio-quality QUALITY                           Specify ffmpeg audio quality to use when converting the audio with
                                                      -x. Insert a value between 0 (best) and 10 (worst) for VBR or a
                                                      specific bitrate like 128K (default 5)
    

    You might have to use a tool to re-do the tags, but that’s pretty easy to do. Edit: also want to point out that yt-dlp also works with a number of other sites besides Youtube.







  • I had to teach my toddlers how to rewind their Barney VCR tape because I got tired of doing it myself. I am quite sure they wore that tape out. Kids do things like that. If there’s only an adult in this house, they might be using it as background noise. I also know someone who leaves the tv on so their pets aren’t sitting in silence all day long and have something to hear. One does it because if she doesn’t have something going with noise her dog hears noises outside a thinks he needs to bark at them.

    OP, you could just screen shot something and ask the person in a joking manner. Just show them the stats and ask to see their shrine to Adam Sandler…



  • is going to launch a store for to buy and rent movies and TV shows

    The quality of journalism these days is just bad. I guess the process now is just type something up, or have some crapgpt spit something out, and then post it with no editing whatsoever.

    On topic: 'Olechowski said that the company has a “pretty major UX refresh” in the works to help support the many people using Plex to watch ad-supported movies and TV shows and FAST (free, ad-supported streaming) channels." ’ Wow, way to totally not read the room there Plex. I use Plex to store my digital collection so that I do NOT have to see ads. They have totally lost sight of what the majority of their users picked up their program for and they are just running in the wrong direction in my opinion. Dear Plex, I would rather re-watch a movie I have in my collection a hundred times over, than watch something with ads. Yep, I detest them that much.
