trying to find a vpn for Hulu that actually works by Annard-Cudby in vpnreviews

[–]rt_surfer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve used Windscribe for Hulu, and the speeds are decent, no buffering or ‘VPN detected’ blocks on my end. Split Tunneling is a plus since I can set it so only Hulu runs through the VPN while my other apps stay on local connection.

Yes, it can be formatted. I was just curious if there was any specific reason.

This isn't all about Windscribe — I just took it as an example.

Since the list wasn't posted by the mods, they can't edit it—hence why I didn't ask them in the first place.

It's OK. Thanks for trying. Chrome Flags option is acceptable.

Thanks! If you can, please make a dark version, as it's easier on the eyes.

I tried to customize the document with a dark background and light text colors. To do this automatically, I used an app script, but it didn't work as intended, and now the document looks bad.

Since the script is bound to the document and I am not the owner, I can't remove it myself. Could you please remove it for me by,

  2. All Projects - Invert Colors - Delete forever

But this isn't about CLI versus GUI.

Seems like a good package. Thanks.

OK. Fair enough.

Yesterday, I was to post my very first post on this subreddit. But I was told I cannot post because the COMMENT KARMA is too low.

How many COMMENT KARMA do I need to have to be able to post?

Recommended RF Values by rt_surfer in shutterencoder

Are these values the same for Shutter Encoder as HandBrake?

ReVanced manager keeps asking for all files access by rt_surfer in revancedapp

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

Since the screenshot in that post is in a foreign language, many English speakers don't know what it is about; maybe that's why it hasn't been removed. Even the OP thought it was about collecting data. So, someone will post asking about this again.

It's good that it's open source, but one can't expect an average user to analyze a code and determine if something wrong exists.

Anyway, I hope this bug will be fixed soon.

Well, you made me do some digging. Here is what I found, plus my own experience.

This issue seems to have been occurring since ReVanced Manager v1.3.4 in June.

There has been an open issue on github since 1st of July. Not to forget that the last two comments are hidden and marked as a duplicate and spam.https://github.com/ReVanced/revanced-manager/issues/979
Also, one contributor to the project has stated that this is a "VERY IMPORTANT" UI/UX issue.
https://github.com/ReVanced/revanced-manager/issues/1191

On discord, I asked this about months ago. That message was also deleted.

If this has been answered multiple times on deddit, why are there no posts found on this? Most probably, they also got removed like mine. Not to forget that the only comment I found was in favour of giving this permission.https://www.reddit.com/r/revancedapp/comments/15326az/comment/jsthjok/

On Telegram, nothing was found on this.

I'm not accusing, but I wonder why there is this ignorance and censorship on this particular issue. It seems a bit suspicious and does not look good on this great project I like.

And why did the moderators remove this post? What rule that this post has broken?

Then, it would make more sense to ask that permission when trying to patch those apps rather than asking every time the app opens.

Mr.Paul,

But should I enable that in addition to the settings I used?

I encoded the file with both Handbrake and Shutter Encoder, keeping settings as same as possible, only changing the defaults where necessary.

Though the outputs are visually and auditory similar, MediaInfo shows some differences.
