@2026Five is off to a faststart this summer with 5 XBH's in four games!

One of the most powerful CLI tool ever built that can replace 20 media app at once: FFmpeg It can: - Convert videos - Compress files - Extract audio - Resize clips - Generate GIFs - Cut videos - Merge videos - Add subtitles - Inspect metadata - Stream content - and even record your screen. If you are building products that deal with video/audio (or even for general use), don't miss out on FFmpeg. Some interesting FFmpeg commands: 1. Check file information $ 𝚏𝚏𝚙𝚛𝚘𝚋𝚎 𝚒𝚗𝚙𝚞𝚝.𝚖𝚙𝟺 2. Convert video format $ 𝚏𝚏𝚖𝚙𝚎𝚐 -𝚒 𝚒𝚗𝚙𝚞𝚝.𝚖𝚘𝚟 𝚘𝚞𝚝𝚙𝚞𝚝.𝚖𝚙𝟺 3. Compress a video $ 𝚏𝚏𝚖𝚙𝚎𝚐 -𝚒 𝚒𝚗𝚙𝚞𝚝.𝚖𝚙𝟺 -𝚟𝚌𝚘𝚍𝚎𝚌 𝚕𝚒𝚋𝚡𝟸𝟼𝟺 -𝚌𝚛𝚏 𝟸𝟾 𝚘𝚞𝚝𝚙𝚞𝚝.𝚖𝚙𝟺 4.

补充避坑：生成的合成视频上传时说格式不对，是grok合成的视频编码不对要转一下。 视频编码：H.264（正确） 像素格式：pix_fmt=yuv444p（这就是罪魁祸首！X平台只认 yuv420p） Profile：High 4:4:4 Predictive（X不接受4:4:4高精度模式，必须改成标准 High） 帧率：24fps 恒定（已经OK） 音频：AAC（完美，可以直接复制不用重编码） 解决办法，ffmpeg转换，命令如下： ffmpeg -i 111.mp4 -c:v libx264 -preset medium -crf 23 -pix_fmt yuv420p -profile:v high -level:v 4.1 -c:a copy -movflags faststart output_fixed.mp4 这条命令亮点： 强制 yuv420p（X最核心要求） 强制标准 High profile 音频 -c:a copy（速度超快，不重编码） -movflags faststart（网页播放更流畅） 转码完成后（大概10-20秒），文件名叫 output_fixed.mp4，直接用浏览器打开 x.com 上传（手机App有时候更严格）。 验证一下是否彻底修复（推荐） 转完后运行下面命令检查： ffprobe -i output_fixed.mp4 -show_streams | findstr "pix_fmt profile" 应该看到： pix_fmt=yuv420p profile=High 如果看到这两个，就基本稳了。

This is probably what is behind it...he is going there to sell his rattlesnake factories: ElementUSA (Gramercy): An $850 million investment to refine gallium, scandium, and iron from bauxite residue, with a demonstration plant starting in 2027. Aclara Resources (Vinton): Building the first U.S. heavy rare earths (Dy, Tb) separation facility for EV magnets, potentially meeting significant domestic demand. Element25 (Burnside): Developing the nation's first HPMSM (battery component) refinery, importing manganese concentrate. Ucore (Alexandria): Processing rare earth metals like neodymium (Nd), praseodymium (Pr). LSU Research: Studying lithium extraction from underground brines in oil fields. Why Louisiana? Industrial Byproducts: Abundant bauxite residue from alumina refining provides a rich source for valuable metals. Strategic Location: Access to ports, waterways (Gulf Intracoastal Waterway), and existing chemical infrastructure. Government Support: Federal grants (DOE, Dept. of War) and state incentives (LED FastStart) are driving investment. Critical Minerals in Focus: Gallium & Scandium: From bauxite waste (ElementUSA). Heavy Rare Earths (HREEs): Dysprosium (Dy), Terbium (Tb) for magnets (Aclara). Manganese: High-purity manganese sulfate for batteries (Element25). Lithium: From underground brines. These projects aim to create high-tech jobs and reduce U.S. reliance on foreign sources for these vital materials. ElementUSA Building $850M Rare Earth, Critical Minerals Refining ...

Install the ElevenLabs MCP and give it your API key. Install the yt-dlp MCP. Add following to CLAUDE.md (could also create a skill out of this). Modify spelling errors section if transcription spells your product name or other proper nouns wrong: 👇 When processing a YouTube video: 1. **Create subfolder in**: `assets/video/YYYY-MM-DD - Channel Name - Video Title/` - Folder name format: `YYYY-MM-DD - Channel Name - Video Title` - Use video upload date from YouTube metadata 2. **Download video**: Best quality available (prefer 1080p), save as `video.mp4` - **Important**: All videos must be converted to MP4 format for compatibility - Use ffmpeg with these settings: `-c:v libx264 -preset slow -crf 18 -c:a aac -b:a 192k -movflags faststart` - Delete the original webm/mkv file after conversion 3. **Download audio**: Extract audio as separate file, save as `audio.m4a` 4. **Transcribe**: Use ElevenLabs speech-to-text with diarization enabled 5. **Save transcript**: `transcript.txt` - **Important**: Fix spelling errors - Replace "?" or "??" with "???" 6. **Create metadata file**: `metadata.md` with complete video metadata (title, channel, URL, description, tags, views, likes, etc.) All four files (video, audio, transcript, metadata) should be stored together in the subfolder. **Example structure:** ``` assets/video/ └── 2025-08-19 - Channel - Title ├── video.mp4 ├── audio.m4a ├── transcript.txt └── metadata.md

Metallium will be working with ElementUSA who has committed $850M to build a rare earth and critical minerals refinery at the Gramercy alumina site in St. James Parish, Louisiana. The facility will recover gallium, scandium, iron, and other materials from bauxite residue. Construction of a demonstration plant is scheduled for mid‑2027, with initial production targeted for Q3 2028. The project will be located near the Noranda Alumina refinery and within the 54-mile jurisdiction of the Port of South Louisiana, the largest port by tonnage in the Western Hemisphere according to the company. ElementUSA first launched the project in 2021. At the time the company said the Gramercy site has a 35 million dry-tonne reserve of mineral-rich residual bauxite. The project is supported by a $29.9M U.S. Department of War Title III award and state incentives, including a $6M infrastructure grant and LED FastStart workforce training and will create 754 jobs in the region. linkedin.com/posts/adamas-in…

ok this is what you need for the app store preview video to work: ffmpeg -i "input.mp4" -f lavfi -i anullsrc=channel_layout=stereo:sample_rate=48000 -vf "scale=886:1920,pad=886:1920:(ow-iw)/2:(oh-ih)/2,minterpolate=fps=30" -c:v libx264 -pix_fmt yuv420p -preset slow -crf 18 -profile:v high -level:v 4.0 -c:a aac -b:a 256k -shortest -movflags faststart output.mp4

I know this one: Chrome waits because the WebM metadata index (cues) is at end of file FF streams without req index first. Remuxing the file with cues at the start fixes it with ffmpeg generally: try ffmpeg -i input.webm -c copy -map 0 -fflags bitexact -write_tmcd 0 -movflags faststart fixed.webm There might be a need for a -matroska_strict 1 if the encoder your using demands it

You might want to use ffmpeg.org/ ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -b:v 1000k -b:a 128k -preset medium -movflags faststart output.mp4
