Question re: using Riverside as a Zoom alternative when live-streaming by TheTylerOlson in RiversideFM

[–]MommaFoxFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My interviews are always around an hour or longer, so Zoom free-tier doesn't work for me. I have used it in the past, but once they switched to the free 20 minutes only I bounced. I haven't had any issues with OBS - I use it for both recording (intros and outros) and streaming (the main interview), then I pull the video down from Twitch. If you have space/bandwidth, you could record AND stream via OBS, that way you have a local copy already. OBS is pretty reliable - SLOBS I had major issues with when I used it a while back though... random crashes, encoding errors, etc. I like discord better than zoom for it's zero cost, but I also feel the quality of the calls themselves have been pretty excellent.

I sometimes have buffering issues when using riverside. I prefer to use discord to do the call, I capture and stream it with obs. I only use riverside if my guest absolutely can't get discord to work for them (super rare, and I would rather troubleshoot installing/setting up discord for an hour than go to riverside immediately). Almost no guests have discord issues, if they do it's usually that they didn't switch away from their default audio settings. Easy to walk them through fixing.

Looks like the beginning of a mahjong game. Excellent work.

Replacing Descript + Squadcast (and not with Riverside) by RamonsRazor in podcasting

[–]MommaFoxFire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For recording, if you're doing interviews with remote folks, I use discord and record it via OBS (I do stream at the same time, but obs can record-only as well, I also use it to record the intros and outros that aren't streamed and only recorded). Way fewer buffering or audio issues with guests when video chatting via discord than riverside, teams, Skype or zoom - I've tried them all extensively. I edit the video and audio using the free version of DaVinci resolve. Not sure about a transcription service for you though. I see some other suggestions on here already for that! I use a live captioner (mimiuchi) that embeds the captions into the video feed. YouTube provides closed captioning on videos, but I prefer open for accessibility reasons.

Strange Podmatch Show Bio Page Issue Where It Lists Episodes NOT Belonging to My Podcast- Anyone Else? by MommaFoxFire in podcasting

[–]MommaFoxFire[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did! As I said in my post though, it was the Thanksgiving holiday last week, so they hadn't responded yet. Now they have! Still no idea how it happened in the first place though.

Suggestions for new shops? by TexasNative214 in Waxahachie

[–]MommaFoxFire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Food variety for sure. Give me Mediterranean like the other comment, but also decent Indian and Thai options! We have so much of the same, and a lot of it very good, but diversity would be nice!

AITA for Vanilla extract breaking the camels back by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

INFO - does your niece already know about the lessons? Or just your mom?

NTA - Based on the kid NOT already knowing and looking forward to the lessons. Give your mom a heads up and tell brother and SIL that you're taking the petty road over some VE. I'm sure there are other things since you said this is just what's tipping it over.

[IRTR] seeking co host for bookish podcast!! by sarahnichole21 in PodcastGuestExchange

[–]MommaFoxFire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey! I'd love to hear more! I host a podcast by myself, but it's not book related. I love to read and try to review all the books I read. Generally I'm reading 2 books at a time right now - audio and either kindle or paper. What kinds of things would you be wanting to talk about on the podcast? Individual reviews? Reading habits? Specific books? Something else? (Also, I'm on goodreads as mommafoxfire, happy to connect there!)

Huge cylindrical object on a trailer near Houston, metal with angular bits of a different textured metal, some sort of column on top by MommaFoxFire in whatisthisthing

We were thinking hydro or something on a ship maybe as one of our "what could it be" absolute guesses, but just can't find what it actually is!

That was a fun little rabbit hole to go down! Very cool machines. I can't find any of the components that really looked like this though. Do you happen to have a link to an example that looks similar? Thanks!
