From a quick look on wikipedia, looks like AC3 does not support VBR. That is enough to make AAC twice as good at least, especially since movies have a lot of silence in them, so your ratio of 1:2 equivalence seems right to me
Sorry I edited my other reply heavily because I noticed later that you were interested in some exact bitrate numbers… I don’t know enough about AC3 to know an equivalent number, all I can say is those numbers I’ve written for opus and AAC are in my experience enough to enjoy any movie.
Hi Zedstrain If compressing, why not opus? AAC is almost as good but you have to make sure you’re using a good encoder, and its licensing is not as open.
Anyway I found this table, next to “Music Storage”, it shows the suggested bitrate values depending on the number of audio channels, from 96 to 450. Should applicable to movies, and to AAC (maybe adding 10% bitrate?).
For movies I’d use these values personally:
2 channels: kbps 128 (150 AAC)
6 (5.1): 196 (224 AAC)
8 (7.1): 256 (300 AAC)
Nope everything usually just works, wine-mono takes care of .NET stuff. Take a look at the optional dependencies for wine (archlinux example), many of those lib32 libraries may be needed.
Cutting edge game-specific fixes that are not yet on normal system wine (especially for a stable distribution with an older wine package) might be on wine-ge that you can install from Lutris, and optionally use for a game or set as the default runner for all new games.
If you’re pirating, don’t use those lutris install scripts, they download directly from the original source like Steam or GOG.
Instead add a game on Lutris by clicking the + button, tell it to install from an executable (.exe), give it a title (if it corresponds to the name on lutris.net, it will download the cover art for you), pick a folder (which by default will be a new wine prefix folder just for this game), select the installer. Proceed as if you were on windows, exit after finishing installation so lutris will know you’re done installing. Your game will be ready to double click :)
AFAIK this shouldn’t change your system, it only activates it, you need to find another way to upgrade/reinstall to a different Windows version. Idk how because I always did clean installs, and for many years now I only use Enterprise LTSC (on a usb ssd with WinToUSB, my internal ssds only have linux).
It’s all about having the .lrc file, it gets read automatically (as long as it’s named like the song file) by mpv player and many android players.
It’s a simple text file containing the lyrics with timestamps. You can get them from deezer for example with certain downloaders. Or look for them on Soulseek.
TIL about MPR, thanks mate
Thanks for these infos, it’s very interesting to get a glimpse of what goes on behind the “scene”. Makes what you do even more impressive, keep it up 🙂
And I’m sure if dwarfs gets more popular and well maintained, it’ll get distributed more, so it’s not an issue. Also after commenting here yesterday I tried a quick tiny game (Jetstream) on a debian install and saw that dwarfs release on github comes with a dwarfsextract package that’s usable standalone, no installation required, in a few minutes I was playing the game’s exe bypassing the script.
Appreciate the response, I guess my point of view is of a patientgamer, that would not add extra pacman repos just to check out a game…
But I see how you guys have/want to keep up with the cutting edge to offer serious competition, and so from there the need of standardization and not doubling of the efforts makes perfect sense
I’m probably in the minority of gamers, but in the majority of linux users, and most of those that I know even forget they can play casually on their machine and instead rely on consoles or secondary pcs for fear of breaking their main system
In any case your collection is incredible, so if it makes people interested in installing a rolling distro and avoid that windows partition or closed up console, that’s a huge win in my book. Thumbs up 👍🏻👍🏻
I like their work a lot but I wish they didn’t use dwarFS, simply because it’s not easily installable on most distros.
They suggest Arch or other very up-to-date distros to play their games (and it’s true that you get the best experience with the latest AAA games) but in reality 90% of their releases are tiny indie games (that they insist on compressing with dwarFS) or older games that’d run very well even on a Debian oldstable, it’s a pity they’re kinda cutting out a lot of potential users
Lately I’ve been playing only small games on my laptop, I’ve been getting the windows gog releases (freegogpcgames.com) and installing them into Lutris, it’s super convenient
This is true but if you open tens of websites as many people do every day (some keep them open for months!), what kind of monstrous VPN setup should you have to have tens of IPs?
I don’t think there’s a realistic solution other than using TOR as much as you can bear…
CookieAutoDelete and Temporary Containers fool 99% of websites and trackers, especially with uBlock Origin it’s the best you can get without losing convenience…IMHO
But all the incognito tabs share the same “container”, if you keep a lot of tabs open like me, try the Temporary Container extension with automatic mode. Also CookieAutodelete on Auto (it deletes cookies and local storage after a tab is closed for e.g. 15s)
Was about to write the same thing as your last paragraph, the “wanting to be first” aspect. But you also made me realize how Cam rips might have been an important service in the past. Today we are drowned in new web-dl stuff constantly
I’d even get the Xvid DVDrip of it, but never the cam rip they are vile 😂
A 2tb sata ssd goes for like 65 coins nowadays…pick AV1 & HEVC and you won’t be able to watch that amount in a year…so you can seed for a year too! :)
Start a clothing fashion design dedicated instance immediately, it’s the law
1337x is my favorite. Look for efficient encodes like HEVC or AV1 for a better quality/size ratio (and ideally AAC or opus for audio). It’s usually in the torrent name as well as the resolution, source, etc.
