Find And Run Robot / Re: A similar function to Listary's Quick Switch function?
« on: October 01, 2020, 06:05 AM »
The small AutoHotkey script SaveAsPathHelper.ahk I threw together to mimic this functionality still works ok on my PC. Link to source again
https://gist.github.com/nod5/73d7ea232ede7ab6762833d5442fef5d

I might spruce it up as a NANY release.

Listary won't run without admin privaledges.

I suspect any tool with this kind of feature would have to run as admin if the goal is to have it work with save / open windows from most applications, including those running as admin.

Find And Run Robot / Re: regex default value if nothing entered
« on: September 19, 2020, 11:23 AM »
I don't think the FARR alias syntax has any feature for that kind of conditionality.

Not sure if there is a way to do it in the windows cmd part (left side of the | pipe).

My own solution in these kinds of cases is to write a small AutoHotkey script and have FARR run it with the parameters and do the conditional steps in the script. If you go for this option then consider doing only
[Select]
slicevideo (.*)

and separate out parameters from that one long string once in the script.

edit: Something like this

FARR alias
alias name: slicevideo
alias regex: slicevideo (.*)
alias result: C:\folder\FARR_slicevideo_helper.exe "$$1"

AutoHotkey script
Saved as FARR_slicevideo_helper.ahk and then compiled to FARR_slicevideo_helper.exe

Code: Autohotkey [Select]
  2. SetWorkingDir %A_ScriptDir%
  4.  
  5. ; FARR alias slicevideo helper script
  6. ; 2020-09-19
  7.  
  8. ; FARR alias syntax:
  9. ; slicevideo "(.*)"
  10. ; where the regex sub pattern contains one of these string formats:
  11. ; - "<filepath>" <start-time-in-seconds> <duration-time-in-seconds> <out-file-name-no-ext>
  12. ; - "<filepath>" <start-time-in-seconds> <duration-time-in-seconds>
  13. ; - "<filepath>" <start-time-in-seconds>
  14. ; rule: only <filepath> can include spaces
  15.  
  16. ; process command line input
  17. ; split at quote marks to array
  18. ; -> array item 1 = blank
  19. ; -> array item 2 = input file path
  20. ; -> array item 3 = all remaining params, space separated
  21. ArrayA := StrSplit(A_Args[1], """")
  22. ; split above array item 3 at spaces to new array
  23. ArrayB := StrSplit(ArrayA[3], " ")
  24.  
  25. File      := ArrayA[2]
  26. StartTime := ArrayB[2]
  27. Duration  := ArrayB[3]
  28. OutFile   := ArrayB[4]
  29.  
  30. ; input file must exist and starttime must be set
  31. if !FileExist(File) or !StartTime
  33.  
  34. ; fallback output filename
  35. if !OutFile
  36.   OutFile := "untitled"
  37.  
  38. ; fallback duration in seconds
  39. if !Duration
  40.   Duration := 60
  41.  
  42. ; run cmd window that stays open and starts ffmpeg cut
  43. Run %comspec% /k " ffmpeg.exe -i "%File%" -ss %StartTime% -c copy -t %Duration% -vf "\ffmpeg output\%OutFile%.mp4" "

Post New Requests Here / Re: [IDEA] Book Tracking 1.1
« on: September 13, 2020, 11:47 AM »
Well the Airtable example base I linked does include a categories for series and more.

Quick GIF of that base here

and here's how the default form for adding new items manually looks

Though again if you want to avoid manual entry of new items (through a form) a script to scrape worldcat or amazon or ... is also needed.
Airtable free tier also has a limit on the number of items per base which might become an issue.

Brainstorm: a minimal but maybe convenient enough book tracker could be pieced together from (1) a sheets app like Google Sheets (example) or Airtable (example) and (2) a script that takes ISBN etc as input and looks up data on worldcat or similar and outputs CSV data to the clipboard for manual pasting on a new line in the sheet app. Maybe Zotero and its browser add-ons can be used to fill the (2) role.

Living Room / Re: Hardware and software for quality youtube podcasting (for boardgaming)?
« on: September 10, 2020, 06:50 AM »
I have no feedback on the specifics (easily sync audio streams, ...) but some software thoughts:
- I've seen live streamers use OBS https://obsproject.com/ (FOSS)
- For non-live video/audio editing check out DaVinci Resolve https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/davinciresolve/ (Freeware)
