Honey, I Shrunk The Vids [Mr. Universe Edition] v1.0.5 (github.com)

Honey, I Shrunk The Vids is an overengineered oversimplified system-agnostic frontend for FFMPEG.

This is a followup to a post I made yesterday, about a silly little Windows application I'd made for batch transcoding files. I wanted something that I could just dump my files onto without having to muck about with Handbrake or Tdarr - post here, for those curious: https://piefed.ca/c/selfhosted/p/568748/honey-i-shrunk-the-vids-a-windows-transcoding-frontend-for-ffmpeg

So I spent today making my silly little Windows application a silly little platform-agnostic application. I rewrote the whole thing in Rust and JavaScript with a webview frontend, and apparently Github lets you compile binaries for quite the range of target platforms, so I have compiled binaries available for Windows, Linux, and Mac (Intel/Apple Silicon). It's got a dark theme because of course and a light theme because I guess, also it's themeable because why the hell not. I'm pretty pleased with how it's coming along - if anyone decides to give it a go, please let me know if you find issues!

Compiled binaries can be downloaded at https://github.com/obelisk-complex/histv-universal/releases

This sound awesome and i'd love to try but, your GitHub link delivers a 404.

Also you hosted the original project on Codeberg but this on GitHub. Is it because of GitHubs ability to build binaries for a wide range of systems or because of Codebergs latest availability issues?

Edit: Found the issue and the link you meant thanks to another commenter, fixed!

And, it's actually also on Codeberg: https://codeberg.org/dorkian_gray/histv-universal

But yes, I did create a GitHub account just because it can build binaries for a wide range of systems; the binaries are currently only available on Github. I'm trying to figure out how to create a release on Codeberg, but if it's in the Tags, every time I click into one I get a 502 Bad Gateway, soooo... I think it's safe to say that I have been running into Codeberg's availability issues, and I'm now glad I've got both 😅

The problem is that the . (full stop) at the end of the sentence is also in the hyperlink.

It loads fine for me! It seems like it’s just an issue with the commenter’s setup
