[02:17:45] <Bytram> Does anyone know how to specifically tell yt-dlp to use a specific set of audio and video codecs? "yt-dlp -f 251 <url>" only gets the audio, and "yt-dlp -f 135 <url>" only gets video. What command do I use to explicitly select both? TLI5, please.
[02:18:24] <Bytram> I know I am close, but I just get errors
[02:24:28] <Bytram> Ugh. I just crashed my browser. :(

[16:16:19] <progo> Bytram did you figure it out? I think you need to use some additional switch to say "gather everything I said and package it into an mkv file"
[16:18:24] <progo> I'm not going to dig into the long manual myself right now but I'll give you an example from my diary. I use the `-S: "…"` switch to select track formats based on constraints, and write audio + video + subs to mkv:
[16:18:24] <progo> > yt-dlp "https://www.youtube.com/c/SailingUma/videos" \
[16:18:24] <progo> > --dateafter 20210702 \
[16:18:24] <progo> > -o "%(title)s -- %(upload_date>%Y-%m-%d)s.%(ext)s" \
[16:18:24] <progo> > -S "height:480" --merge-output-format mkv \
[16:18:25] <progo> > --write-auto-sub --sub-lang en
[16:19:02] <progo> oops. wrong note. that's for "everything after a certain day from one channel". this one is "one video"
[16:19:03] <progo> > yt-dlp "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9gM9FEGEAYo" \
[16:19:03] <progo> > -o "%(title)s -- %(upload_date>%Y-%m-%d)s.%(ext)s" \

[16:20:15] * progo has a 32 inch living room TV. 480p ought to be enough for anyone. :^b
[16:23:28] <requerdanos> I have a 65" living room TV but 480p still looks pretty good on it.
[16:24:10] <progo> and honestly I often downconvert to 720p or leave a 720p download as-is, in my library
[16:24:34] <progo> that vlog, "Sailing Uma" went Orange And Teal after the co-star/editor took a course at Skill Share :^(
[16:24:46] <progo> I watch for the storytelling, not the videography
[16:26:46] <progo> I want to build an independent HDMI filter box between the Roku and the TV screen: undo orange and teal (go black and white if necessary); undo shakey-cam; use AI magic to separate out the speech from the rest of the sound track and punch it up (undo 'mumbling delivery' that everyone complains about in the 20202s)
[16:27:08] <progo> *2020s
[16:27:27] <progo> Sailing Uma's only problem is orange-and-teal
[16:30:07] <progo> relevant plug: JellyFin is the one-package solution for managing your audio/video collection and having each device know where you stopped playback in every item in the library
[16:30:18] <progo> just RTFM and name your files the way Jellyfin likes them named
[16:30:58] <requerdanos> orange and teal?
[16:31:35] <progo> orange and teal is the annoying trick that video editors (people) have been doing for ~20 years. started in cinema and spread to everywhere: desaturate all colors that aren't orange or teal
[16:31:53] <progo> https://en.wikipedia.org
[16:32:26] <progo> I think they also nudge other colors TOWARDS orange or teal
[16:32:30] <progo> it's annoying
[16:33:32] <requerdanos> looks annoying.
[16:34:16] <fab23> =submit https://scotthelme.co.uk
[16:34:18] <progo> I swear it's becoming the video equivalent of Comic Sans
[16:34:55] <fab23> hm, it seems that some bot is missing
[16:36:33] <requerdanos> systemd: please have chromas resurrect you at your/his earliest convenience. Thanks.
