Is replaysorcery dead?

matanui159 commented 2 years ago

I'm honestly not sure. I don't use linux as my main system anymore so I have no reason to work on it and rarely am in an environment to develop it. Along with this, I haven't had as much energy to work on side projects as I used to. Been focusing more on other enjoyments like games and TV and finding more hobbies and just overall looking after myself more rather than doing the same thing I do for a job as a hobby.

However I don't really want this project to die either. It means a lot to me and it seems to be have gotten a bit of a following from Linux gamers. And overall I'm not really sure what to do with it.

I think it's about time I accept that I won't be working on this majorly anymore and start looking for someone to take over the project, although I wouldn't even know where to start with that. So I guess I'll use this as a call out for developers keen to take over the project. FFmpeg experience would be preferred but I am happy to jump on a call and go through the whole codebase at some point. Maybe it might start with non-master access and PRs only before I completely trust someone, but I gotta start somewhere if I don't want this project to die.

If I had a personal preference I think I would like to specifically notify @Calinou since you have already contributed a bit and seem to have a good understanding of video. But I can understand if you've already got a lot on your plate with Godot but if you know anyone who would be good for this project feel free to point them my way 😛

Anyway if anyone is interested feel free to reply to this thread or message me on Discord at Matanui#0159. Don't be afraid to reach out, if nothing else I'm always up for a chat (when I was actively developing this project I was tempted to make a discord server anyway).

Damn, good luck finding someone to pass the torch.

I appreciate the offer, but unfortunately, I'm too busy to have more side projects going on :slightly_frowning_face:

Yeah, it's very rude to try and volunteer someone else like that.

So sorry to not write this in a new issue, but I feel like it has a higher probability of getting answered here. How do I set two audio monitors to record in the config? More details here.

There is a similar project: gpu-screen-recorder

It is active as I can see, but for now it requires GPU that has NvFBC support. However, there are some plans for supporting intel and AMD using VAAPI.

It has a user-friendly GUI and it has more thing then just instant-replay. I think it would be great if some parts of this project was merged with it so it can support more then just NvFBC.

Thank you. I will check into it.

AgentLoneStar007 commented 1 year ago

I checked into it, and for now I will stick to this program because that one is lacking features I need such as start replay at startup. Plus the audio is weird. When I put two sources on top of each other, you can hear the louder one perfectly and the second one barely at all.
