[QUOTE=pentium;52522324]Oh, well isn't that a fucking kick in the balls.
So I guess Youtube is fucking with shit again because it seems that whatever the fuck implimentation of HTML5 they used to support just got updated. Standards being standards, you wouldn't expect much to change but oh look, there was an addition of h.264 support being mandatory. Why the fuck was that not required from the start?
Sooooo, it seems that now Youtube will routinely give
"Your browser does not currently recognize any of the video formats available" because you know, Flash is dead and whatever implimentation they have of HTML5 now demands browser side h.264 support of you can go fuck sheep.
Now for me just to upload my own videos I need TWO different machines. One that does the editing and proofing, the other just to play the video back on Youtube and verify stuff like links are applied properly.
Oh, and for just updating browsers? You know who I am. On XP, Chrome is dead, Firefox is dead, IE is junk and Opera has been six feet under for years. I fucking bet $50 this was intentional. Save for older videos it seems as of now all new videos are uploaded with this requirement attached, so slowly you are going to find you can't watch more and more videos.[/QUOTE]
Yes, of course it is intentional?
[QUOTE=wingless;52522461]What are you talking about? How is 264 something that requires a "black project supercomputers". 264 has been the gold standard for 10 years now.[/QUOTE]
Which again raises the question:

I'm okay with shit right at the beginning imposing restrictions. It's a lot more helpful when it comes to planning a transition.
Not so much when you "think you are compliant", but then asshole toggles a setting and SURPRISE! It's now broken on all your systems, three months after rollout completed. I wouldn't of cared at all if this had been imposed ages ago.

Developers who program in the high-end (16 cores and 32gb ram) and forget their clients at best have four cores and 8gb ram. Optionally "Garbage Collection" is some dirty word only Frank the C programmer who is at the end of the hall for the last 28 years mumbles about.

Computers improve. When Youtube first launched, the <video> tag didn't even exist. Now, any chip used in something with a screen big enough to play video on has a hardware h.264 decoder and damn near everyone uses a browser with perfectly functional HTML5 support.
And it's a cost to Youtube to keep supporting it. FLV compression is pretty bad, so it takes up more bandwidth. It doesn't work the same way other formats do, so it's extra engineering, another thing that they have to test they didn't break whenever they change something. It's even a security risk to users, since Flash is basically the most broken, insecure thing ever to be given plugin privileges.
But what if my hardware already supports h.264? Why is it suddenly a software limitation that says "YOU can handle it no problem but WE can't handle the streaming to your hardware."
It almost feels like a licensing issue. I ran into this problem before years ago where I had a hardware MPEG2 decompression card installed in a machine but the DVD player wouldn't use it because Apple never paid for the fucking code hook that was basically "YOU CAN USE THIS".
Please don't tell me it's a licensing issue because that's FUCKED.
So uhh. I thought for the last 12 years that my psu has been a xfx. It finally died on me today and I can finally read the label side of the psu. Motherfucking Xion. That's when it donned on me. I had an issue with the good psu because I wanted to run sli stuff, and to tide me until I could get a good one I plopped in a moderately used 1000w xion psu. It was cheap, I needed the wattage to run gtx 8800 ultras in sli, it happened. I have ran the same psu for almost 12 years and forgot about it. It's far overkill for modern sli setups with modern cards for a few years now, probably why it lasted 12 years. Rip you disgusting monster of a psu. I will miss you only kinda.

No. It's a delivery issue. As in your browser is too old to support, likely, MSE. Something that has had wide adoption from 2013 and very much a majority adoption by 2015.

I have [I]completely[/I] lost track of what your situation right now even is. You're saying your hardware can do h264 but your software can't and Youtube somehow isn't working because Flash IE Apple something something.

Dunno. Try hunting around the settings for MSE stuff, I suppose. It was added in 48 or so, if I recall correctly.

Okay, so I uploaded a video to youtube last week. It loaded and played fine in the browser and still continues to do so.
I uploaded this weeks video and youtube complains about no compatible formats being available.
Only thing I can think of is that all new transcoding at some point in the last week changed and from that point onwards new videos cannot be played. Unfortunate, but it's a case of why the hell was that not mandatory from the start?

Well this may not actually be the issue you think it is. I have a hunch what happened here is the first codec transcoded may be something like VP9. Something you're not going to be able to likely play, and then what happened is the available-codecs/settings was cached on their side, as happens with freshly uploaded videos, per region. I've seen very similar happen before.
[QUOTE=pentium;52522434]
Shouldn't you be developing a machine which caters towards more optimization and less "I dunno it rendered fine for me your computer must be old lol".[/QUOTE]
I'm fairly certain that your machine is able to play H.264 videos.
Just quit using Windows XP. It's not supported by Microsoft anymore and doesn't get security nor feature updates (the only recent update was for that WannaCry thing).
Just download Windows 10 and be done with it. Then you'll be able to install all the up to date software you want like newer versions of Firefox/Chrome.

Did you miss the part where I said I do not have any modern video editing software? I'm not doing this shit for a living. I can't afford an adobe subscription.
Also I already run windows 10 and el cap, but that isn't the fucking point here.
There's versions of Sony Vegas aimed towards hobbyists like yourself that are pretty cheap and a one time purchase.
I know it's you we're talking about here but c'mon it's unreasonable to expect them to accommodate stuff that doesn't pertain to 99% of their user base :v: Get some video editing software for your modern setup and the problem is solved.

Fine. I'll look into that.
[QUOTE=Dr. Evilcop;52522375]I thought you moved to El Capitan and Windows 10 as your daily driver?[/QUOTE]
The CPU upgrade broke sleep mode. Yes, the fucking CPU upgrade. So the machine idles as hot as a blast furnace 24/7 while the software side "thinks" it is asleep and turns my monitors off and wastes nearly twice as much energy as my legacy box.
You're running El Capitan on an unsupported Mac IIRC ya? Probably why there's issues. Maybe messing with darkwake might help.
It's just a weird quirk with power management. It behaves fine if I put the original dual core chips in.
Also, just noticed something. Remember that whole issue on the last page? It turns out it's now broken on youtube, however videos still work fine if played through media tags.
Okay, I'm going to take that one as it is and call that good enough for now.

Vegas is trash. Trust me, as someone who actually studied film and did a lot of professional editing with different softwares. Sony Vegas is bad.
Like, literally even Avid Media is better than Vegas. And Avid is kinda bulky imo.
I think the last version of Premiere I can support via legacy is CS4. CS5 drops XP and requires 64-bit mode. I think El Cap can do CC 2015 however gross, subscription.
I started with Videoshop so the switch to Premiere about ten years ago wasn't bad but I just don't want to relearn an interface again.

After hoarding my photos for 6 years, I've made my first ever backup! (on google drive)
For the first four years they sat on a then ~5-10 year old 80 GB hard drive on NTFS in a PC, and for the last two years when I got my laptop I transferred all of them onto that (I gave away my PC to my parents so this laptop is my only computer). The laptop went everywhere with me, on very rickety bus rides (roads are almost as bad as in russia/alaska) and drunk parties, and the data is still sitting on an NTFS partition both mucked by win10 and linux.
Haven't lost anything yet to bit rot. Still need to upload videos, music and some documents.
It wasn't the brightest idea to drag&drop 2200 files at once into firefox, drive only accepted the first 740 files while firefox froze for a good 5-10 minutes with only one core running 100%. But yeah, you can do that, and dropping in the remaining files in smaller quantity like 300 works better (yet still makes firefox freeze for a minute).
I made the backup because I might want to sell my T420 to buy myself a new PC again. By selling this laptop I might have enough money to go with a G4560 or maybe save more for a Ryzen because I want to render videos and play games/do resource intensive stuff because this laptop literally turns into a throttling oven. I have no other physical media to save the files onto so that's why I went with google drive.

I wanna buy the Adobe CS6 Software Suite because it's the last version that doesn't require a subscription but is still totally usable in 2017 and will probably continue to be for another couple years at the least.
