What's the best open source GUI to compress videos on linux?

Jump

  • Handbrake is great. But I would also recommend using Kdenlive. It is a video editor but if you just open your video in it and just export the project, you will get some good output format options.

    • The Cloudflare Poison

    • Self-hosted Jellyfin CPU or GPU for 4K HDR transcoding?

    Jump

  • 6th gen's integrated GPU cannot decode HEVC.

    Jump

  • My optiplex with i5-6500TE can transcode 4K videos easily if the codec is AVC. HEVC is different story though. Any CPU newer than 10th generation would be more than enough for your needs, I'd say.

    • A while ago one of my old accounts got banned from r/news for saying I wouldn't bone some celebrity. Now if I forget and comment on a front page post with any account this happens.

  • Source of the last point?

    • Is Instander dead?

    Jump

  • Use Proxigram. It works, most of the times.

    • I want to buy PineTime, but "Package cannot be shipped to your country due to logistical reasons."

    Jump

  • I am not really into development. I just really like the idea of having a smart watch.

    Jump

  • Again, no shipping options to my country.

    • [Serious] Do you know of any processed snack foods with some vitamins?

    Jump

  • Muwahahahaha.

    • After some trial and error, I've managed to successfully deploy public instances of privacy-respecting services!

    Jump

  • Not sure. Will have to try it out.

    • What todo app are you using?

    Jump

    • Krita FTW

    Jump

  • GIMP is very different, but Krita is quite similar. Pretty sure you won't miss much. However, I am not an advanced user, so, I cannot say for certain. Also, some shortcuts are different. But do try Krita. It is awesome.

    • I miss people looking like humans.

    Jump

  • Right. If I talk about Bollywood, many old actors, that are 50+, are still portraying roles of men in 30s. For example, Akshay Kumar's skin in almost every new film is smoothed out to give him a younger look, Slaman Khan always has 6-8 pack abs even though he is sightly fatter in reality, etc.

  • Had a nice poop?

    • When people post YouTube links, is there a cool open source way to watch it on mobile without going through youtube, firefox, or downloading adblockers?

    Jump

  • If on Android, use UntrackMe. When clicking on any YouTube link, or even Reddit, Twitter etc., select this app to open the link with. It will automatically redirect you to a privacy friendly frontend. Link YouTube to Invidious. You can customise the instances you want to use.

  • All ports are forwarded. If your SMTP is running on, say, port 993, on your local machine, your-VPS-ip:993 will be your SMTP.

    • What is something that is completely legal that should be illegal?

    Jump

  • In India, minimum age is 18.

    • I've been buying the few games I play on GOG, so that means I can't sell my CS:GO items anymore.

    Jump

  • We can sell the games on steam?

    • Do you usually purchase digital or physical books? Why?

    Jump

  • I pirate digital books, because I don't want to spend the money. I buy physical books so that I can resell them.

    • Recommended GUI desktop applications for compressing and converting files (PDFs and images)?

    Jump

  • Converting, editing and compressing images is very easy using gThumb. It will provide you with basic editing tools like, colour correction, special effects, cropping etc., and using the save image as option will provide you with conversion and compression options.

    The Eye of GNOME is another great tool for converting and compressing images using the save as option.

    For PDF, I use GIMP. It may be overkill for kost users, but it is a pretty useful tool for basoc editing as well, like adding text overlay, and other options covered in gThumb.
