@BuboScandiacus I don't know about a command that can do that, but usually the manufacturer will have that information. Search the video decoding capabilities of your GPU's chipset. Mine is an Acer Predator Bifrost with an AMD Radeon 7600 chipset, so I search "Radeon 7600 video decoding". Usually your fetch program can tell you what your graphics card is, but sometimes it can't tell. Mine can't tell what exactly my graphics card is, but I can still find out by reading what it says on the graphics card itself or the box it came in.

@BuboScandiacus It doesn't slow it down, but it might be because it's a very small video & the computer is good. The computer has video decoding hardware for the video format I'm using, so that might be reducing resource usage more. The wallpaper also supports automatically pausing the video under certain conditions to free resources, such as low battery or a window being fullscreen. I haven't tried this on a worse computer. It should only slow down the computer if it uses the CPU to decode the video, which happens if your graphics hardware doesn't support the format, or if the file is large & consumes alot of memory. I transcoded the video to AV1 because my graphics card can understand that format & because videos in that format have a very small file size. It's probably best to try out different things & see which one slows down your computer the least.

@blinfabian @Fizz You have to build it yourself this way though :(
Maybe it's distro dependant. I'm using Fedora & Neon, & I don't see this in "Get New" or Discover on either one.

@blinfabian @Fizz This doesn't show up for me, only on the store.kde.org website. "Get New" is always so inconsistent :(
Discover doesn't show it either. Here it is on the KDE store.

@unixporn@lemmy.world @unixporn@lemmy.ml @unixporn@lemmy.sdf.org @unixporn@programming.dev This is still a work in progress💔
I keep making very small changes. Panon now only goes through each color once & my terminal now has no window borders or a menu bar, it's just a sheet of glass. I wish I could make my terminal have rounded corners, but that seems like an every window or no window thing. I have also discovered Panel Colorizer & I might need to mess with it & see if I can make something cool out of it.

@Deebster I know that Mastodon does weird stuff to videos, but I'm not sure why the images won't work.

@Deebster If the background is Pokemon, it's from the work in progress post & not this one.

@krimson Actually it looks like it went to almost 40% when recording this video, which I did with Spectacle. Spectacle isn't very good at videos.

[–] jackemled@furry.engineer 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

@krimson It's usually at around 1% unless I do anything, then it might go to 4%. If I record a video with Spectacle it goes up to 11%, but with OBS it only goes to 6%. It only goes up to 75% when doing something very intensive like transcoding a video. I've never managed to get it to 100% & I think it thermal throttles before it can. It's a Ryzen 7700.

@f4f4f4f4f4f4f4f4 View the original post on furry.engineer. I couldn't get the attachments to federate to any Lemmy servers properly.

 

[Plasma] To demonstrate the power of Flex Tape…

I sawed this panel in half!

I've never seen anyone do this. It seemed like a good idea & it was. It's very nice. It's not very fancy besides the split bottom panel & the status bar on the left. I'm using Smart Video Wallpaper Reborn for the wallpaper & the Plasma style, application style, & window decorations are Oxygen. The audio visualizer on the right bottom panel is Panon. The comic is Freefall by Mark Stanley.

Sorry if I formatted this badly, I'm using Mastodon & I've never made a Lemmy post.
