   Best way to browse your videos

   I created this software because there was no good alternative. If you want to see what videos you have on an external hard drive, and you want to see screenshots from within the video, this software has you covered.

   It now has over 900 purchases, so seems like other people like it too.

• Ask HN: How did you earn your first $100 and first $1k online?

  First $100: Thirty copies sold of Video Hub App First $1,000: Three hundred copies sold of my Video Hub App https://videohubapp.com/ Though I do donate $3.50 of every sale to a cost-effective charity so in theory I made no money for a while until I bumped the price to $5 / copy. - Source: Hacker News / 12 months ago

• Jellyfin: The Free Software Media System

  Semi-on-topic: I created Video Hub App that is like YouTube for local files: shows you a gallery with scrub-able (preview on hover) thumbnails. But does not work streaming videos to TV / tablet - only for local consumption. Hope someone finds it useful. https://videohubapp.com/ MIT Open Source: https://github.com/whyboris/Video-Hub-App. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Python GUIs

  "The problem" might be that people in this thread and others get frustrated because others have different goals than them. Of course Electron is overkill for a single-button application. But Visual Basic is absolutely going to be a headache if you want a custom GUI. Pick the tool that's right for the job! I build this with Electron: https://videohubapp.com/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• I've been data hoarding for 25 years. I have a bajillion hobbies. It's hard to stay organized.

  I created Video Hub App: https://videohubapp.com/ - it shows screenshots from videos as you scrub/hover across the thumbnail. Source: over 1 year ago

• FFmpeg 6.0

  I've been so frustrated that FFprobe functionality is not part of FFmpeg. My app extracts screenshots from videos to create a beautiful gallery of videos. But even though I include FFmpeg already, I need a 50mb FFprobe executable to be bundled with my app just so that I can determine the width, height, duration, and fps of a video file! What is it that FFprobe does that FFmpeg couldn't do with a few extra pieces... - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• What is your current EDC?

  I am a big time overpacker, at least until I go on a trip and hurt my ankle and then scale back. This loadout in my camera backpack is on the overpacked side https://mastodon.social/@UP8/111091984601991594 since I can't make up my mind if I want a manual focus 50mm that opens to 0.95 or if I want to do sports, birds, and a little bit of macro work with a 100-400mm zoom, or shoot stereograms, or play with a... - Source: Hacker News / 1 day ago

• How to generate realistic people in Stable Diffusion

  I find all those photos generated by Stable Diffusion to be kind of repetitious and boring. Eking out something "interesting" is difficult, especially with limited time and low-end hardware. Interesting is highly subjective of course. I tend towards the more artistic / surrealist style, usually NSFW. Only nudes, no pornography. I've been experimenting these last few months with interesting generating... - Source: Hacker News / 7 days ago

• Apple's Silicon Fab Next to Homes

  I cannot tell if you are joking or not. But it is obvious she is litigating in public until she gets the payoff she wants: https://mastodon.social/@ashleygjovik Of course a big corp cannot give in easily to behaviour like that as it would just open the flood gates. - Source: Hacker News / 8 days ago

• What's the Difference Between Mastodon, Bluesky, and Threads

  >I'm not optimistic about non tech people easily logging into mastodon.192.168.555.2.xproxy.remoteinstance2452456a1.mirror.com. Why are you trolling? Mastodon instances have normal URLs like https://mastodon.social, and you can just log in there like any other site. And there's a ton of "non-tech" people on Mastodon.. In fact the people who seem whine the most about how hard it is are the "techies" on HN. It's weird. - Source: Hacker News / 14 days ago
