projectm VS wdt

This is a fantastic idea! I forked [1] projectM a while back to work on a few modifications such as screen and audio recording (by saving raw framebuffers) and being able to select the active preset remotely from a web interface so I became somewhat familiar with the way projectm handles A/V input/output.

I just took a look at ffmpeg’s video filter interface and it looks like linking the two could be doable!

This feels like a much more elegant solution for recording frame-perfect captures so thank you!

I’ll definitely be looking more into it.

I like the way you're thinking here, I think the limitations you mentioned with gemini may stand... for me it's kind of like the limitations generally speaking with markdown. Doesn't leave much room for doing stuff like parsing the raw data when they aren't in a hierarchical structure with xpaths you can target and stuff like that, it just throws out so much baby with the bathwater that I'm ready to scream infanticide.

Any thoughts on fast experimental protocols like warp data transfer [1] or fast and secure protocol [2] ? I know they're not exactly the most open things or wellsupported in terms of what you're looking for but I've been really wondering when we're going to start seeing pressure to relieve network congestion using stuff like this.

That's great stuff, I wonder how it compares to wdt[0] when there's only one TCP path. This has been my go-to tool to transfer files on the network.

I guess? If you’re building parallel infrastructure (vlans are not enough obviously) just for running Aspera over it might not be the worst thing ever, but that’s an expensive way to live and that’s before you pay for the A$pera licenses. There are free and better behaved platforms out there like https://github.com/facebook/wdt if you don’t want other applications’ TCP sessions to time out while you’re trying to squeeze out the last half percent with Aspera.
