How do you respond to this without sounding angry?

>>106140690 (OP)
ffmpeg seems to have done a good job, so follow their example.

VLC works fine though.

Theo is gay and also a web developer. I'm not sure which is worse. He has no idea what he's talking about so I'd probably just ignore him.

>>106140690 (OP)
looks like freetards need to get to work again

>>106140690 (OP)
well, did he get really fukken mad?

>>106140690 (OP)
Theo is a web retard who should stay in his web retard sphere. These retards probably think the codecs are better off being programmed in TypeScript or some shit.

PirateSoftware and this guy are the same kind of frauds. You either see it or are too delusional.

Why are all the "popular" code YouTubers such faggots?

I've literally never had a video file that wouldn't load in VLC.

>>106141086
Is tsoding popular? I don't mind him but ThePrimeagen, Theo, TJ and the rest of them are all massive pseud JavaScript faggots.

jesus christ these trannies (ffmpeg) never fucking learn. big fan of what their CODING TEAMS around the world do to make ffmpeg a thing, but people that manage accounts like this need to get hung and shot

>>106141115
The ffmpeg Twitter account is great and it's owning JavaScript retards regularly.

>>106141115

>>106141086
Faggots are by definition narcissist and YouTube's potential popularity attract narcissists.
That's why there are so many frauds pretending to know how to do shit they don't.
They'll find a specific niche thinking they can milk an audience making "content", this is peak faggotry.

>>106141131
Does he realize that the ffmpeg people are not responsible for VLC? This has been pointed out to him multiple times by now.

Why doesn't Theo just use MPC HC? https://github.com/clsid2/mpc-hc

Use mpv

>>106141107
Same. What the fuck is this guy complaining about?

so who's in the right here? vlc not supporting external codecs sounds like a reasonable complaint.
i haven't had any problems with the built-in ffmpeg ones on my desktop or ios device though. not being able to play iphone recorded videos also sounds valid.

>>106141142
Right? I thought I missed something, but VLC is still some French guy's project that happens to use ffmpeg.

>>106141162
I always thought the whole point of the VLC project was that it didn't require external codecs?
Maybe people today are too young to remember but fucking about with codecs during the XP-era was a nightmare, and VLC was commonly seen as an alternative that didn't require any of that.

>>106141166
i'd love to get $5k for something i didn't make

>>106141188
This. We used to have RealPlayer, DivX Player, QuickTime and whatever other shit installed back in the days.

>>106140690 (OP)
by posting my codecs

>>106141131
webshitters should not be allowed to use social media.

Webbabbys soft introduction to real software engineering

>>106141188
yeah sure but what harm would it do to allow optional codecs for a open source project?
again i never had issues with ffmpeg anyway.

Why ffmpeg even bothers to argue about this, when VLC is one of the shittiest implementations of libav*. I mean - why someone operating that Twitter account would even bother replying to this instead of acknowledging VLC sometimes sucks or telling him to use mpv.
Is this because they are both French?

>>106141208
yeah, i remember CCCP being a massive improvement, which showcases how fucked things were

>>106141298
If you had a long history of collaboration with a project would you throw said project under the bus as soon as a webshitter complains?

>>106140983
Zoomies picking fights they cant win, dont fuck wid ffmpeg. Stay winning ff/vlc chads.

>>106141131
We will soon find out if this is another fake donation from theo. He will probably delete the image too.

I think it's valid. You can't just give blind criticisms, you need to have an alternative ready, either your own or in the marketplace. Software isn't easy.

>>106141142
that nigga is actually retarded

his xitter account is just spamming ai shit and mental breakdowns over apps and languages arnt "modern". This is the mindset of a zoomer as seen from his haircut, that to him any software is outdated or useless to him if it hasnt been updated within 6-12 months. If he has a kid, he would likely abandon it too after 8 years or less.

>>106141318
Are they really collaborating that close? I thought it's like any other project that uses ffmpeg that way or the other.
Anyway - I'd just do nothing or point out that external codecs support in VLC is dumb (I remember how it used to be installing K-lite packs etc.). Saying "patches or opinion rejected" is same as "you can't say cybertruck sucks, because you'd never be as smart as Elon" cringe-level reasoning.

he also really hates firefox for no reason. he says it isnt "productive" enough and also the battery life is somehow worse than chrome (not true)

>>106141298
>Why ffmpeg even bothers to argue about this
He's already got working codecs implemented, so he's got some spare time.

Why not just shoot at the gangstalkers? Isn't that legal in America? You can even hit them through walls with your .50

>>106140690 (OP)
I don't, because I don't have Twitter. If jannies were competent, you'd be banned for posting a Twitter thread.

Everytime I use VLC the video inevitably shits itself and turns into confetti

Anyone have the screen cap of them accusing an anime profile pic of child pornography
