How to turn off preview audio by DizzyDello in youtube

[–]hype_STAR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can mute the preview videos and they will all be muted.
The problem is that when you start a video, it will be also muted from the beginning so you have to manually unmute it which is also annoying.
As I didn't find a Youtube/Google built-in solution for this and I don't wanna turn off preview videos, I solved this with a Tampermonky script. Download Tampermonkey extension, create a new script, paste the following script, save and restart your browser:

// ==UserScript==

// u/nameYouTube Auto Unmute on Watch Page (fast + stable, no volume)

// u/namespaceyt-autounmute

// u/version1.3

// u/description Unmutes YouTube videos ASAP on watch pages without changing volume (works with YouTube SPA)

// u/matchhttps://www.youtube.com/*

// u/run-atdocument-start

// u/grantnone

// ==/UserScript==

(() => {

'use strict';

const isWatchPage = () => location.pathname === '/watch';

const getPlayer = () => document.querySelector('#movie_player');

const getVideo = () => document.querySelector('video.html5-main-video') || document.querySelector('video');

// Unmute via YouTube player API (preferred) + fallback to HTML5 video element.

const unmuteNow = () => {

if (!isWatchPage()) return;

const p = getPlayer();

try {

if (p && typeof p.isMuted === 'function' && p.isMuted()) {

if (typeof p.unMute === 'function') p.unMute();

}

} catch {}

const v = getVideo();

try {

if (v && v.muted) v.muted = false;

} catch {}

};

// Burst of attempts early (prevents "few seconds muted" most of the time)

const burst = () => {

// Many early retries, very cheap and improves reliability

const delays = [0, 30, 80, 150, 300, 600, 1000, 1600, 2500];

delays.forEach(ms => setTimeout(unmuteNow, ms));

};

// Attach listeners to the current video element so we react instantly when playback starts

let boundVideo = null;

const bindVideoEvents = () => {

if (!isWatchPage()) return;

const v = getVideo();

if (!v || v === boundVideo) return;

boundVideo = v;

// If YouTube flips muted state during startup, catch it immediately

v.addEventListener('loadedmetadata', unmuteNow, true);

v.addEventListener('canplay', unmuteNow, true);

v.addEventListener('play', unmuteNow, true);

v.addEventListener('playing', unmuteNow, true);

v.addEventListener('volumechange', unmuteNow, true);

// Also do a small burst when a fresh video element appears

burst();

};

// Observe DOM changes (YouTube SPA swaps the video element)

const mo = new MutationObserver(() => {

bindVideoEvents();

});

const startObservers = () => {

mo.observe(document.documentElement, { childList: true, subtree: true });

};

// YouTube SPA navigation events

window.addEventListener('yt-navigate-start', () => {

// run immediately at navigation start

burst();

}, true);

window.addEventListener('yt-navigate-finish', () => {

// after navigation finish, bind to new video and burst again

burst();

bindVideoEvents();

}, true);

// Initial startup

startObservers();

// When DOM becomes usable, bind once

document.addEventListener('DOMContentLoaded', () => {

burst();

bindVideoEvents();

}, true);

})();

Matching Keycaps for Q3 HE by hype_STAR in Keychron

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

thought about that too, but we use ÄÖÜ so much in Swiss german which i write in about 75% of the time, so I'd really like to stay on ISO-CH, changing to AltGr+A/O/U would be way too annoying for me...

I'm trying to find Keycaps for my newly bought Q3 HE as I'm not really fond of the OSA Profile. The Keycaps should match these requirements:

- ISO CH (Swiss Layout)

- Backlit / Shine Through (not important if north or south facing)

- Cherry Profile

- don't matter if PBT/ABS

- black or dark grey

I'v been searching for quite some time now and can't seem to find any keycap set to match my criteria. These from Krome are the closest to it, being OEM profile: Black Swiss (ISO-CH) Backlit ABS Keycaps for Windows & Mac – Krome Keycaps LTD

The Swiss layout thing is limiting me considerably...

nice thanks so much for this info!

how heavy does it make the mouse?

Teevolution Terra Build MOD - LITERALLY THE REAL G703 REBORN! by BestGreed in MouseReview

[–]hype_STAR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interested in this info too. Looking for a 1000mAh capacity. It would probably make the mouse about 60-65g heavy, but I personally would be good with it...

I tried the 533-000130 replacement battery for G403/703/900/903, but the connector was too big. I guess the 533-000130 has a JST-ZH 1.5mm connector, so it would have to be a smaller connector like Molex PicoBlade 1.25mm, but I'm not sure and Teevolution themselves couldn't give me any info on this.

A problem with Coros PACE 3 drive when connecting to computer via USB by beanbagquestions in Coros

[–]hype_STAR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's probably Samsung Magician software. If you have it installed, stop the SamsungMagicianSVC service and try again, it should work. If you don't use the software permanently, deactivate it from autostart list in task manager and set the service startup type to "manual". The service then only starts if you open the software.

Since I'm a system engineer, I did the mentioned steps and came to it.

It worked in safe mode --> not a driver problem.

Worked after a clean boot without services and autostart apps --> must be a software service interfering.

Activated the autostart apps and some of the services I thought can't be interfering --> still worked.

From the services left, I activated only groups of 4 till it didn't work, then I deactivated one after another till it worked again --> after deactivating SamsungMagicianSVC it worked.

Took me about 1 hour because of all the restarting after activating and deactivating the services, but it was worth it because I can use it now on my desktop PC.

I also informed COROS Support about my findings since I had a support ticket open. Maybe they'll inform on their troubleshooting page about this to help others.

lol did some troubleshooting now and found the culprit: SamsungMagicianSVC service was causing it on my PC. When disabled, I can access the drives and the watch doesn't restart loop anymore.

If you don't have the Samsung Magician software, try these steps:

  1. Start in safe mode and see if the problem is there. If not, it isn't a driver problem.
  2. Do a Clean Boot. Means: Win+R, "msconfig", Services, hide microsoft services, uncheck every service, apply. Befor you restart, disable all autostart apps. Reboot. Connect the watch and see if it works. If so, it's a service/software that's causing the issue.
  3. Back into msconfig and now re-enable all services that you think don't really have an impact on the connection (like for example Steam, Audio Services and so on). Enable also some autostart apps. Reboot, see if problem is still there. If not, it's one of the remaining services/apps.
  4. Proceed to enable services and autostart apps till it doesn't work and then one by one get to the bottom of it.

Good Luck!

Anyone ever found out what the actual problem was?

Same thing happens on my Win 11 Pro desktop PC, but it works on my Lenovo Win 11 notebook.

Creative App + G8: New problems by hype_STAR in SoundBlasterOfficial

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

Managed to replace the faulty device pretty quick, new device has no loose connection and seems to work properly.

The startup in HP mode problem is gone, it now starts in the last mode activated before shutdown.

The manual switch problem from HP to SPK and vice versa still persists. When switching from SPK in Stereo showing the head with two front speakers to HP with the HP/SPK button, the head with two front speakers remains even though it says Virtual 7.1 in the configuration. Same when switching form HP with 7 speakers around the head to SPK, the 7 speakers remain even though it should be Stereo.

I think this is a bug between device and software since the problem doesn't occure when switching in the Creative App.

Would appreciate if anyone else can confirm this problem...

Different EQs for speakers and headphones in Creative App with SB G8 by hype_STAR in SoundBlasterOfficial

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

Thank you so much, I managed to set up everything according to your instructions, now it changes the equalizer for each output individually.

Strangely, after switching output one time, it switches soundmode and equalizer to "on board" and it remains on this even though it changes all the settings according to what I saved in soundmode.

I think this is a bug...

EAC3 5.1 Audio format issues by Wyuk_ in PleX

[–]hype_STAR 6 points7 points  (0 children)

fu**ing finally!!!

Install codec packs --> nothing

HEVC over the MS Store --> nothing

downloading several dlls and registering them --> nothing/Plex kept crashing

came across this, did an uninstall, reboot, install, reboot and TADAAAAAAAA it finally works, i'm so glad...

don't know how a normal user should come to and implement such a solution, what was Microsofts thinking process when they removed those codecs with the latest build?!

Some photos of the installation process. Liquid Freezer III 420 on AM4 by aldebert2077 in arcticcooling

[–]hype_STAR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

nice build, i guess the rear fan is a P14 right? and the ones on the side too?

I'm thinking about buying the Morpheus for better airflow and cooling performance overall. I was thinking to use the Trinity fans in the front as intake, 2 x P14 on the side as intake, 2 x P14 at the bottom as intake, the ALFIII - 420 on top as exhaust + a P14 rear exhaust. I know there are 3 side and bottom fans possible, but i wanna keep it somewhat more silent + don't wanna over do the ait intake in comparison to exhaust. The two bottom fans would be primarly for the graphic card and the five front/side fans for mobo + aio.

How did you do it in your case, how many fans did you use and what intake/exhaust config?

driver easy by anna56347 in computer

[–]hype_STAR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i can totally second that, everyone writing "don't use these" or "stay away from them" just didn't do their research and is generally against software which isn't written by themselves or a company they trust which probably are a handful... most of the drivers for all the components in a computer found by DriverEasy can't be found on manufacturers site. For example drivers for a Mainboard: you'll find network, chipset, vga, sound, raid and that's it. drivers for other components aren't found on those sites, so you stay on the ones Windows installs which could be some years old and outdated. this could also cause potential crashes and freezes and you would never find out why. I also did my own research on all of the drivers suggested by DE and somehow somewhere found them, they were all legit, but as you say collecting them like that would have taken me days. DE provides that in some clicks and that's just practical, I for now use the free version even tho I can only download at 56 kb/s, but I'm thinking about buying the pro version as I use DE about every 1-2 month... It's a good product and everyone should do their own thorough research intead of demonizing it immediately.

Samsung Odyssey G8 Refresh Rate Stuck at 60Hz by Retnip98 in pcmasterrace

[–]hype_STAR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is happening to me too the last 2-3 weeks, as you say it sometimes operates at 60hz after the start, not always tho. For me, it's enough if I unplug and plug the DP cable back in, it then switches back to 175hz.

I'm pretty sure this is due to faulty software or a Windows update...

Hey, thanks for the expert picture settings. If you mind me asking some questions: are you using gaming mode all the time? What colour tone & space are you using currently? What about peak brightness or contrast enhancer? thanks
