mt32-pi VS youtube-local

I have just seen https://github.com/dwhinham/mt32-pi but it doesn't seem as easy to play with and well-documented as the other software I've used.

Cool system. I'd see if you can get a hold of a Roland MT-32 type synth. If your sound card has a daughterboard connector (it does, top right corner) you can get a Serdaco Wavetable board which would let you have generalMIDI output. An external MT-32 or a mt32-pi will also greatly improve your music output.

Regardless the best option is a MT32-pi solution. https://github.com/dwhinham/mt32-pi/wiki/Custom-hardware

I think MT-32 and SC-55, at least, are wildly overpriced for what they are from a music perspective, thanks to the retro gaming bubble. If you want to mess around with one, I would recommend checking out mt32-pi. In addition to the extremely limited MT-32 sound palette, it can also load soundfonts, which really opens things up a lot.

Check out Mini-Dexed and MT32-Pi. I use both and they're great. They are built on the bare-metal "circle" platform, so they don't run on top of linux (so no faffing about with JACK routing, etc.).

its a CJMCU 5102 DAC Board, which is one of the supported soundcards. You can use the internal headphone jack of the Pi as well, however it only supports 12bit PWM audio there, which is usable but has a lot of artifacts and I would not recommend therefore

You can turn a Raspberry Pi into a Yamaha DX7 using MiniDexed or a Roland MT-32 using mt32-pi (which also loads soundfonts via FluidSynth). I use both of these regularly. They're great. Both work with USB MIDI controllers with no additional hardware required and boot headlessly in a few seconds to work like a true instrument.

My project here is similar: https://github.com/user234683/youtube-local

It keeps everything in the browser while still being local to the machine

I am planning to host youtube-local (https://github.com/user234683/youtube-local) on my old laptop that's running Ubuntu Server. I don't plan on accessing the instance outside the local network.

YouTube alternative frontends (web-based): - Invidious - Alternative and privacy respecting YouTube frontend. - Piped - An alternative privacy-friendly YouTube frontend which is efficient by design. - LibreTube - An alternative frontend for YouTube, for Android using Piped. - ViewTube - ViewTube is an alternative privacy-friendly YouTube frontend written in Vue.js - Youtube-Local - browser-based client for watching Youtube anonymously and with greater page performance.

FROM python:3.9 RUN apt-get update && apt-get install -y git WORKDIR /app RUN git clone https://github.com/user234683/youtube-local WORKDIR /app/youtube-local RUN pip install --no-cache-dir -r requirements.txt EXPOSE 8080 CMD [ "python", "server.py" ]

https://github.com/user234683/youtube-local It's like Invidious,but you can route your requests through Tor(if you care) and has a classic design and also has SponsorBlock,works most of the time

Been using youtube-local https://github.com/user234683/youtube-local for months if not years now, does the job pretty well.

i can recommend youtube-local with VPN for performance and privacy. Also Odysee as many Youtubers already have a channel there.

YouTube Local

Somewhat related self-plug: Self-hosted browser client for watching YouTube anonymously (Python):

https://github.com/user234683/youtube-local

It supports downloading all the raw formats (the video only ones, audio only ones, and the 360p & 720p integrated formats). More meant for watching than downloading, but some more advanced downloading features, such as merging audio+video with ffmpeg to get more downloadable qualities and auto-downloading options for playlists are planned.
