I just discovered a fix for the crackling audio in DaVinci Resolve!
Whilst I was finishing up this video, apparently someone found a (potential?) fix on the DaVinci Resolve forum.
Note, I haven't tried this out extensively yet, but I recorded a few short clips that were fine:
– Make sure DaVinci Resolve is using PulseAudio ALSA, if its using Pipewire, you'll get no output.
– To fix the crackling, go to Video and Audio I/O settings, and put "Playback Processing Buffer" to 1024, and "Record Buffer Size" to 6.
This increases the latency a bit, but it shouldn't be a big issue for most people.
Now if it only weren't for the mysterious random "Loading Projects" issue. I'm not really sure what causes it considering that on Fedora 39, I don't remember having that issue.
For me it was the last option: I'm happy with my current OS. Which is MX Linux Xfce.
Thank god someone who actually did his research before just diving into it thinking they would magically learn a new OS in the span of a single youtube video.
So I used arch for about a year, with a windows dual boot – eventually I gave up fiddling every week with updates and niggles (I don't think anything broke outright though), and I learned a ton of things about Linux: now I can fix things in Ubuntu/Fedora much easier. Although I don't use it any more, I've very much benefited from having experienced it. Plus, i3 is awesome!
I noticed OBS on Hyprland is more reliable when it is on a different workspace/monitor than the one it records. Try moving OBS to another workspace.
Could have just used arch installer
personally It's either cinnamon or i3wm for me due to the ease of use while still providing ways for configuration.
I recall in a previous video you said you like the GNOME workflow but have you tried Plasma recently? Best use of Wayland imo and has some new autotiler scripts now (like a twm not like windows powerzones or whatever its called)
Please… Ditch the music.
I use arch btw
Maybe the real linux distro is the friends we made along the way
NixOS next!
I say this as a meme only but next try out Gentoo with dwm and it's other suckless tools.
Now try nix os
What's next? LFS?
If you just started with EndeavorOS you would honestly probably not feel as burnt out and have gotten a setup that worked a lot quicker. It's imo the best distro I have personally used and is the reason why I daily drive it for gaming, school work, light video editing, music production, coding, etc. Its probably the best for creators, enthusiasts, and scientists alike imo
first minute in and he says nvidia… oofff I can already feel the pain. I've been using Arch I think for 3 straight months now as a daily driver with zero issues, but I have an AMD GPU so there's that
Thanks for posting the music tracks, goes hard!
I use Arch Linux.. (and dwm btw). X11 or bust for now for me for a few reasons. I need global hotkeys for how I use my PC, I don't want to switch to a workspace and only then control a program when I can do it with a global hotkey as it is supposed to be done. Also I haven't found a good windowmanager on Wayland yet. I like what the developer of hyprland is doing, he does great work, but hyprland does still have a few big shortcoming for me: it lacks an intergrated panel and systemtray, it lags the ability to select more than 1 workspace, it lacks the ability to pin a program to more than 1 workspace. These features are essential to have the optimal workflow which i have come to love with dwm.
we love arch btw
BTW…
using a windows background in linux… this man is a menace
about 3 days into Endeavour OS, i also accepted Arch probably wasn't for me, and my next choice is Nobara.
my journey continues:
my rock solid but outdated Zorin, which could have been Mint or other Debuntu based LTS,
my next step into the new world of sub-year release cycles,
and the step after that to try immutable distros.
"Arch is the best, you shouldn't use Arch" seems contradictory, but its 100% true.
Gentoo linux is my distro for me. I do not recommend running gentoo if you don’t have time and if you like your current OS.
Noice.
arch is not the hardest 🙁
there's a divinci autoinstaller a lot like the arch installer called davincibox that may solve a lot of your wayland issues
Linux simply Rocks, I use RichARCH btw. It made it quick and simple for me to get Arch Linux installed with kickstart like automation features.
i’d say the most difficult to install distro is gentoo, or lfs (if you’d count that), which are leagues harder than arch ever is.
34:30 There are tools that help with that! I recently started using Chezmoi to manage dotfiles and it doesn't just help with that, it can let you have different configurations on different machines, run scripts, maintain packages between machines and so much more!
Recently, my office pc broke and I had to reinstall Arch (EndeavourOS), so I just:
– Installed EndeavourOS
– Installed git and chezmoi
– Initialized Chezmoi with my github name (it seartches for a repo named dotfiles)
– And then ran `chezmoi apply`
I had setup my scripts so that the packages are separated on categories (essential/gaming/development/nvidia) and also per DE/WM(Hyprland/Plasma/Cinnamon) because I prefer different environments for different tasks. The scripts I made ask me if I want to install each group and I type Y or N and then reboot!
The only missing things are logins and ssh keys, but those I do manually for security reasons.
