The Lounge 0001 [From the Beginning]

Might replace those 3TB drives anyway sometime in the near future. Ever since I changed the power saving options for HDDs the clicking every 3-5sec is back…

Clicking can be a bad sign

you couldnt before?

They did this before. And it’s not really a clicking, more a “creaking”, like a really, really short movement of the read head.
I’ve heard the click of death before and that’s definitely not it.
And it’s also not in exact intervals.

The “put drives to sleep after x minutes” also doesn’t seem to work properly cause something randomly makes them spin up when I’m not even accessing any of them.

nope. Been trying to get a like from him or logan for four years. Finally! Today is the day.

Do you have Steam running on that machine all the time? iirc Steam on Windows will randomly spin up all the drives even if there isn’t a library on them.

Metal, IPA or indie game. There’s your like.

Nope.

Well I’m not a like whore. I’m not just gonna post random crap for likes. What I share is genuine and I usually find interesting.

Logan does follow me on github, not sure how often he checks it though. I’ll call this a half-win.

iirc I think I’m only around maybe 4 or 5 likes from Wendell in total. would be neat if you could check that.

By the way web cams record at a variable frame rate.
Adobe Premiere will import the audio out of sync with the video.
How you get around this is to use handbrake to convert the video to have a constant frame rate.

Can this be changed somewhere in the settings?

think you can in the recording software. most webcams ive used have been constant frame rate so :woman_shrugging:

That would’ve been my next guess -> let another program take control over the webcam (as no-no as this sounds).

I’ve do V4L2 capture for webcams in OBS and never and any issue setting the framerate. usually lets you set it from 25-60 fps depending on resolution.
