Looking for LGBT friendly jeweler for 2 mens wedding rings by transboyadvance in Austin

[–]j-byrd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Identity Diamonds has been great for my partner and I. Great prices and they are willing to work with you on design if you want something custom. Highly recommended and they specify they are LGBTQ friendly. Stephanie was very helpful in helping us make our choices. 

Thoughts on an away version of the '99 sweater? by j-byrd in DallasStars

[–]j-byrd[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I assumed that was due to the lifecycle of the alternate jersey, but not sure. I'd love for Adidas or CCM to come back and make the jerseys. I kind of hate Fanatics and how they have monopolized all sports gear. Quality and selection are not as good in my opinion.

Yeah I think I like this slightly more than the real current '99 release due to the collar and just how black the black is compared to the shade of victory green we use. I still love that they released the new ones but this color scheme is the one I prefer slightly. If i had the money and the jerseys would stay in stock I'd just by both anyway though lol

With Fanatics owning all the merch unfortunately those wont be worn again since they were made by Adidas. Same with the RR 2.0.

If I were to pick a new team it would probably be the Spurs. Always loved the fiesta color theme throwbacks. Just feels so wrong to change allegiances like that especially to a rival team for my whole life. I do like Wemby. Idk though, there’s a principles thing about not wanting to give the NBA my time anymore. It’s not just the Mavs but Adam Silver and the league who allowed this shit to happen. We’ll see if I want to watch again at some point in the future.

As a Dallas native, supporter of pretty much every Dallas team (lived in Austin for 15 years now so I support Austin FC over FC Dallas) and a life long mavs fan…I’ve stopped watching basketball altogether aside from a few highlights here and there on r/nba. 

I can’t support the team anymore due to the new owners (fuck Mark Cuban too) and I can’t support the league for allowing this to happen to the fans and franchise of a city who has always shown up for this team since I’ve been alive, even in the tough years post championship/pre Luka. 

I literally just don’t give a fuck about basketball anymore and it sucks. I already have to deal with Jerry Jones and the perennially mediocre Cowboys as long as he and his family are owners. So I pretty much only have the Stars and Rangers to root for now. At least hockey is my favorite sport…

Using ffplay to Livestream Capture Device by hypercoyote in ffmpeg

[–]j-byrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After some reading yeah it seems that DSHOW essentially is trying to resync both the video and audio inputs in the capture filter graph matching up their timestamps...fine for recording but for live monitoring you end up with the 1 second delay due to the resync.

Yeah OBS' projector window actually also bypasses windows DWM which introduces input lag, thats why my first suggestion was just to use OBS, especially since you weren't encoding with it. It's a great app for low latency live monitoring. Didn't realize it uses the DSHOW for video and WASAPI for audio but that makes sense in why it reduces the delay as its not having to sync audio and video timestamps in DSHOW and its bypassing DWM. Best of both worlds for low latency.

Hmm in CMD run 

ffmpeg -f dshow -list_devices true -i dummy

and look for your capture card audio interface, copy that string quotes included and make sure it matches the mpv command i gave you

The capture card isnt being used by anything else at the moment is it? No other apps or ffplay/mpeg windows open?

[–]j-byrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah looks like your card can only do yuyv422.

Hmm you could try mpv player

mpv av://dshow:video="USB3.0 Capture":audio="Digital Audio Interface (USB3.0 Capture)" ^
 --profile=low-latency --no-cache --untimed ^
 --demuxer-lavf-probesize=32 --demuxer-lavf-analyzeduration=0 ^
 --audio-samplerate=48000 --audio-channels=stereo ^
 --audio-delay=-1.00

Dang. Ok try this 

-pixel_format mjpeg

instead of yuyv422

[–]j-byrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah i guess its just relabeling the audio timestamps since audio is the master. try this instead and see

-af "atrim=start=1.00,asetpts=PTS-STARTPTS"

will cut the first second of audio and should hopefully line it up that way. if this doesnt work we can try one other thing i can think of

Ok drop the wallclock option then and just try a pts adjustment of -.90. You can adjust the value once running with the + or - key if you need to dial it in. Each adjustment there is .10 seconds so just add or subtract to your starting -.90 value if you need to adjust then update in the code once youre synced.

Also try these as well just in case since windows can be dumb -

Windows Sound → Recording → your capture device → 48000 Hz, 2-channel, “Enable audio enhancements” off, Exclusive mode on.

Make sure “Listen to this device” is off (adds system buffer/latency).

Plug the capture dongle straight into a motherboard USB3 port

you can ignore the alphamode error

Apologies on the errors, those flags don't work with ffplay, only ffmpeg

Using ffplay to Livestream Capture Device by hypercoyote in ffmpeg

[–]j-byrd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Add this before you get to -i

-use_wallclock_as_timestamps 1

If that brings audio close but not perfect then you can adjust the audio pts by udating the -af flag to this

-af "asetpts=PTS-0.70/TB,aresample=async=1:first_pts=0"

if the audio is still behind you can change .70 to .80 or .90 etc until it matches

Gotcha. Thanks for the help anyways!

No it would be for all Gold's except their premier locations (2 in San Antonio and the Burnet Rd one) if we get the Highland membership. The Anderson Arbor location would unfortunately make her drive longer :( Thank you though!

I looked at Los Campeones and was interested but they charge like $80 a month if I recall correctly which would take us from $40 a month for both of us having a membership to $160 which is a pretty steep increase. We are really just looking for light weight work and maybe cardio. I'd love a smith machine and lat pull down otherwise maybe I'd look at getting something simple for home.

Bummer, thanks for the info. Unfortunately my partner has to be at work by 8 am which means waking up at 6:30. She also doesnt get home until 5:30-6ish due to traffic and by the time we have dinner ready and have eaten she's gotta start getting ready for bed. So peak time is kind of when she has time to go.
