• Ask HN: Can a website kill my internet connection? (WebRTC)

  I have weird behavior when using https://zencastr.com/. The moment I join their videocall-room, my internet becomes super flacky, and drops entirely. My connection is via WiFi, and the WiFi stays connected and everything, but no connection to neither zencastr.com, fast.com, google.com works. The tool uses WebRTC for the call, hence I assume it might have something to do with that, but my assumption so far was... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

• I’m trying to make a podcast with my Dad remotely

  Reason I am asking is because while Zoom can do what you ask, in the free version there is a limit to 45min. Instead I'd recommend https://zencastr.com/ which is designed for what you want to do. Source: about 1 year ago

• Huge boost in downloads after switching from Buzzsprout to Zencastr?

  At Zencastr we count downloads compliant with IAB standards. We are currently working on getting officially certified by a third-party and so we haven't included this in our marketing yet. If you send me the link to your show page on zencastr.com, we can take a look to see if anything weird might be going on. josh@zencastr.com. Source: about 1 year ago

• I’m not being brought back for season 2 of a podcast because “since we are switching to video format, we no longer need an audio editor”

  Zencastr is a good option For recording video and multi channel decent quality audio locally on a guest’s computer while using a voip service. Source: over 1 year ago

• I think we need simpler end-to-end tools. Anybody else had this issue?

  Zencastr.com and alitu.com do recording + hosting but lack website creation or any form of marketing. Source: over 1 year ago

• Apple Ferret-UI: Grounded Mobile UI Understanding with Multimodal LLMs

  This seems to be in the same vein as the Rabbit R1 [0], software, not hardware. I'm very excited to see what Apple comes up with this year and going forward. They are uniquely (possibly along with Google though I'm not as aware of the OS hooks Android provides here) positioned to expose "functions" to their models that apps are already exposing to them for Shortcuts or Siri intents. It doesn't take much... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• Apple Buys DarwinAI Ahead of Major Generative AI Updates Coming in iOS 18

  It's not for everyone but I've never been happier with OpenAudible [0] + Plex [1] + Prologue [2] [0] https://openaudible.org/ [1] https://plex.tv/ [2] https://prologue.audio/. - Source: Hacker News / 4 months ago

• Self-Hosted Audiobook server stream > podcast app

  Very cool! My current setup is: * Buy book on Audible * Remove DRM with OpenAudible [0] (paid software) * Add them to my AudioBooks Plex library * Use Prologue [1] to listen to the books on my phone (it connects to Plex) I like my podcast app (Overcast) a lot but it's not made for audiobooks whereas Prologue is. Also Prologue is a very well done app that has fully replaced the official Audible app for me. The only... - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Looking for audiobook app for iPhone...

  Prologue, but you’d need to set up and host a Plex server, at least for your audiobooks. Source: about 1 year ago
