  • I think most orgs would want to own the server and for messages to not be end-to-end encrypted. All connections to the server would still be encrypted.

    That would be more in-line with slack or something.

    If you’re referring to federation specifically then that’s going to get pretty complicated with security policies.







  • Something which notifies you whenever a new comment or reply is made to a selected post/comment, so that you can keep track of any new conversation.

    Something like this would be awesome as a core Lemmy feature IMO. It would essentially turn a post (or maybe any comment tree?) into a matrix style room. Lemmy is actually decent for long term discussion (e.g. helping someone with a problem), but not if there are more than two people involved.











  • Many of the files have been created by hand with a hex editor, thus there is no better “source code” than the files themselves.

    I don’t buy that. There would have been some rationale behind the contents that could be automated, like “compressed file with bytes 3-7 in the header zeroed”.

    You also probably don’t need these test files to be available in the environment where the library itself is built. There are various ways you could avoid that.

    I do agree about the autotools stuff though.

    Minor differences in those files are perfectly normal as the contents of them are copied in from the shared autoconf-archive project, but every distro ships a different version of that, so what any given thing looks like will depend on the maintainer’s computer.

    This seems avoidable. We shouldn’t be copying code around like that.



  • Hi, This is a high priority ticket and the FFmpeg version is currently used in a highly visible product in Microsoft. We have customers experience issues with Caption during Teams Live Event. Please help,

    Use -data_field first as decoder option in CLI. Default value was changed from first to auto in latest FFmpeg version. Or modify AVOption of same name in API for this decoder.

    Thanks @Elon for the reply, This is the command we are currently using: ffmpeg.exe -f lavfi -i movie=flvdecoder_input223.flv[out+subcc] -y -map 0:1 ./output_p.srt

    I will be looking to see any updates in the FFmpeg documentation. Can you please elaborate and provide pointers the right decoding options or the right FF command er can use. Thank you!

    ffmpeg.exe -data_field first -f lavfi -i movie=flvdecoder_input223.flv[out+subcc] -y -map 0:1 ./output_p.srt

    Got that’s fucking brutal. This isn’t even asking them to fix a bug, it’s just basic help-desk shit.

    I’m sure Microsoft has some good devs that are a net benefit to the open source projects they use, but this is not one of them.
