yt_dl

[@Gasmanic]

If only there were some way to download KZbin videos, you could run this through ffmpeg -i yt_dl.mkv -vf scale=120:-1,eq=contrast=10 -sws_flags neighbor -pix_fmt monob -f rawvideo yt_dl.tar.gz and possibly discover something interesting. Ah well.

The next step is implementing the C64 load routine as a standalone command-line program, re-encoding this as audio and releasing it for free on Bandcamp

The RIAA is going to pull the ultimate irony by taking down a video that is completely mute.

my favorite TV program!

[@madduckling4436]

I just surfed sooo far in KZbin and I can't seem to know what I'm watching anymore

[@AL_O0]

Wait, wait, how does this have exactly zero compression? Every static I ever saw on KZbin turned into a blurry mess immediately

[@fffmpeg]

the squares are just really big (12x12) and then you rescale it back with ffmpeg to raw video data which happens to be the output file

[@fffmpeg]

@AL_O0 it has been also encoded with a lossless codec, I used prores and it works just fine when you upload it to youtube

[@rc55uk]

I've got this on vinyl

[@JoStro_]

I like this paradox very much

so youtube can replace binary newsgroups

[@tomok3733]

is this just conway's game of life but sped up by 500%

[@killaship]

No, it's actually some form of encoded sound and if you download this, there's sound. (I think it may have something to do with the compression being virtually absent.)

[@WhompingWalrus]

omg I love this episode

is it black and white pixels or white and black pixels?

[@hezuikn]

both

[@AleT118]

Awesome vid! When's the next one coming out?

[@RNA0ROGER]

How do you encode data this way?

[@tubbunny]

Im not sure lol

[@fffmpeg]

first you tar.gzip it, then add zeros at the end to be a multiple of the pixels in each frame (in this case 120x90) and then ffmpeg it to prores. ffmpeg -video_size 120:90 -f rawvideo -pix_fmt monob -i input.tar.gz -vf scale=1440:-1 -sws_flags neighbor -an -pix_fmt monob -c:v prores output.mov then upload it to youtube :) check my video and try the decoding command from the pinned comment from this (current) video. My encoded data is avaiable at kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYrPimNsodV4sJo

[@BoostedNW]

yeah.. ONLY because someone used a KNOWN github bug against Github to post the code in their own DMCA Repo as a new branch. Hillarious, but sadly now its gone.

[@lowlight1063]

at this point i already know its a fucking rickroll, don't even @ me

[@dafoex]

Alas, its only software

[@EricChiEric]

no its not rickroll

[@killaship]

Lol if you download it it has noise. If you encode a program or whatever to make the sound using this try making a game.
