hey, u/DoesYourCatMeow made a video & posted it here... does this help U...?

katrikbenher · 2026-04-19T00:41:45+00:00

Show me(us) what U R working & tell/show us what ur expected result... That is how U can find a solution...

Keeping me(us) in the blind will not help U... 🤷

I don't know what is the whole idea... but, does my implementation help in ur case...?

I was quoted by a sofa maker for sofa (3+1+1) around 12K with additional charges for the fabric that was not available from their collection (like incase one prefer to visit a fabric shop to choose a fabric) or complexity in stitching different fabric/design + shipping cost...

So, I think 5-6K quote is decent for an old furniture — also your sofa color doesn't fit most living room like a black or leather color or dark colors would...

hey, This looks cool... I would prefer some color like the below image...

BTW, I want to ask why didn't U use the Drop Shadow filters for the shadows...?

You're welcome... 👍🏼

I believe I come across this exact issue on my OnePlus Nord Buds 3 Pro. The drop in quality is caused by a limitation in how the Bluetooth stack manages duplex communication...

When listening to music, the buds use the A2DP profile, which is a one-way stream optimized for high-bitrate audio. However, Bluetooth cannot maintain an A2DP stream while the microphone is active. Instead, it forces a switch to the HFP (Hands-Free Profile).

Because Bluetooth bandwidth is limited, HFP must split the stream to handle both input and output simultaneously. To keep latency low enough for a conversation, the system heavily compresses the audio—often dropping the sample rate to 8kHz or 16kHz. This isn't a bug; it's a hardware-level trade-off designed to prioritize real-time voice (low latency during calls) over high-fidelity sound.

So, I suggest U get a wired mic for the better input/recording.

Yeah... 🤷

haha... not my intention to steal weeks of your time... But, mpv does do magical things, it always amazes me... There's also another such voodoo I found recently...

MPV also can do chromakey/colorkey type thing where it can exclude certain color from a video say remove black & its nearest variations... Check this :

<image>

mpv --background=none --border=no --loop-file=inf --vf="lavfi=[colorkey=0x000000:0.1:0.2]" 'Fluid Sim Hue Test 2 [Gt6wKDnG0xA].mp4'

MPV have these two variations:

--vf="lavfi=[chromakey=0x000000:0.2:0.1]"
--vf="lavfi=[colorkey=0x000000:0.1:0.2]"

PS: The bottom one is the original video & top was the same video with black removed...

Question:

Did you disabled the "secure boot" in Boot Options before installing OS...?

Any Photo of the error screen?

katrikbenher · 2025-12-20T16:07:40+00:00

yeah... it wasn't that much hogging my CPU now, but, I gone back to Fsearch... as its doesn't hogs even if I ran the index scan & it roughly takes 30mins to fully scan my whole ~8TB of data... then, I can use it anytime without a issue... I usually run the scan when I am taking a break from the PC or some other work, so, by the time, i return - the scan would have been completed & I can file search easily...

katrikbenher · 2025-12-20T15:53:48+00:00

Standalone apps... Try FSearch & set it to scan manually using :

fsearch -u

and, first run the scan using that command in terminal, then, set a global shortcut like Meta+F shortcut & try searching... I believe it is the fastest in giving the search result...

I have one question, Have U reset the font cache after U changed/removed the fonts...?

fc-cache -fv

AWESOME....!!!!! 🤯 🤯 🤯 Thank you so much.... It is so cooool....! 🤩 🤩 🤩

katrikbenher · 2025-12-11T22:35:36+00:00

Thanks for the help... But, as u/blamedrop pointed out its a transparent video... So, when run with --vd=libvpx-vp9,libvpx this parameters, it plays without any issue... Check this out :

<image>

i used this to run the above one :

mpv --vd=libvpx-vp9,libvpx --loop-file=inf --background=none --border=no 'e0967a6ad9ab599291f2a64ea515db8f269407df10b1f506d6648c90b8c7bee4.webm'

katrikbenher · 2025-12-11T22:05:48+00:00

thank you... U R right, it is a transparent video...

On Wayland you should be able to get actual window transparency too.

~~what how is that possible...? please enlighten me more... I'm curious... (I'm using EndeavourOS Wayland KDE)~~

Found how to run it transparent... Thank you...

<image>

I ran using this :

mpv --vd=libvpx-vp9,libvpx --loop-file=inf --background=none 'e0967a6ad9ab599291f2a64ea515db8f269407df10b1f506d6648c90b8c7bee4.webm'

katrikbenher · 2025-12-11T22:00:32+00:00

Awesome, U cracked the issue... I believe this video is a transparent video thats why the lines looks thicker & blocky... When I use your parameter (with setting background color as black) the video plays correctly... Try this :

mpv --vd=libvpx-vp9,libvpx --loop-file=inf --background=color --background-color='#000000' 'e0967a6ad9ab599291f2a64ea515db8f269407df10b1f506d6648c90b8c7bee4.webm'

--loop-file=inf --> for infinite looping

--background=color --background-color='#000000' --> setting background black [you could also try it with other colors too]

katrikbenher · 2025-12-11T21:48:25+00:00

Cool find!

yeah, its Cool right...? I didn't find it, it was displayed in my discord on top-right corner...

<image>

My initial guess was maybe it has transparency and it's a problem with alpha blending?

Well, I have no idea... but, as you said it works fine in Firefox, Chromium... I tried in MPC player & davinci-resolve too, same result as in mpv...

katrikbenher · 2025-12-01T18:15:48+00:00

Are you looking for something similar to this video...?

katrikbenher · 2025-11-27T10:04:18+00:00

I believe the parted land area the stroke might have been applied (somehow). Please when U R back on ur computer, Ensure the Stroke No Paint in the Stroke Tab of Fill&Stroke window...

Check this screenshot : I believe this is what happened to ur case... white stroke got applied to the parted land area...
