If employing an adblocker is “altering YouTube’s code” then opening the wrapper on a Snicker’s bar is “altering Snicker’s product.” The code runs on my device, I get to say how and when and whyfor. It’s akin to receiving something in the mail… I now own that copy and can do with it what I wish pursuant to all relevant laws.

Sounds like some logic you can tease out with node-red. I don’t know of a native way to do it in HA.

I have a custom ffmpeg script to automate what Handbrake does in a few clicks. Newer versions of Handbrake are great imo. I was on the fence and spent a lot of time trying to get ffmpeg going but there’s just too many variables for me to continue down that path.

I would advise Handbrake over ffmpeg. I have spent months in both and Handbrake yields the best results with the least hassle. Crop, anamorphic pixels, quality, etc.

H265 nvenc is supported on Handbrake now and works great. Very fast.

Venera.social has 1100+ users and open registration. Sounds like as good a place to start as any.

They literally have a Join Friendica link on the guthub.

So this is like RetroArch for MacOS. Cool!

Firefox runs it all just as good!

I would have agreed with you about Edge when it was MS’s own engine. It was lightweight and fast. Even early builds on the Chromium stack were decent. Lately, Edge is more bloated than Chrome! It’s really showing MS’s true colors these days.

It’s worth pointing out the same is true for batteries. Home Depot and Lowe’s will typically accept those and old cellphones, etc.
