   Best way to browse your videos

   I created this software because there was no good alternative. If you want to see what videos you have on an external hard drive, and you want to see screenshots from within the video, this software has you covered.

   It now has over 900 purchases, so seems like other people like it too.

• Ask HN: How did you earn your first $100 and first $1k online?

  First $100: Thirty copies sold of Video Hub App First $1,000: Three hundred copies sold of my Video Hub App https://videohubapp.com/ Though I do donate $3.50 of every sale to a cost-effective charity so in theory I made no money for a while until I bumped the price to $5 / copy. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Jellyfin: The Free Software Media System

  Semi-on-topic: I created Video Hub App that is like YouTube for local files: shows you a gallery with scrub-able (preview on hover) thumbnails. But does not work streaming videos to TV / tablet - only for local consumption. Hope someone finds it useful. https://videohubapp.com/ MIT Open Source: https://github.com/whyboris/Video-Hub-App. - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Python GUIs

  "The problem" might be that people in this thread and others get frustrated because others have different goals than them. Of course Electron is overkill for a single-button application. But Visual Basic is absolutely going to be a headache if you want a custom GUI. Pick the tool that's right for the job!

• I've been data hoarding for 25 years. I have a bajillion hobbies. It's hard to stay organized.

  I created Video Hub App: https://videohubapp.com/ - it shows screenshots from videos as you scrub/hover across the thumbnail. Source: about 1 year ago

• FFmpeg 6.0

  I've been so frustrated that FFprobe functionality is not part of FFmpeg. My app extracts screenshots from videos to create a beautiful gallery of videos. But even though I include FFmpeg already, I need a 50mb FFprobe executable to be bundled with my app just so that I can determine the width, height, duration, and fps of a video file! What is it that FFprobe does that FFmpeg couldn't do with a few extra pieces... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Tauri – Electron alternative written in Rust

  I chose Electron for the app I was building because it would make sure the app I create (1 code base with Angular) would perform exactly the same way on Mac, Windows, and Linux. It required virtually no learning of anything new (just look up some Electron API like "minimize window") and I was done. https://videohubapp.com/ & https://github.com/whyboris/Video-Hub-App As a single developer, I was able to get... - Source: Hacker News / over 2 years ago

• Mass replace episodes thumbnails with proper ones

  BUT, in r/datahoarder someone recommended me Jellyfin to sort my shows/movies and it's sooo sleek and nice! And I can even stream the media. I ~just had to multi rename the files using this open source program; Simplest file renamer it allows to edit the files with notepad which I coupled it with excel and online databases. Then jellyfin ~took over and scanned my library.😅. Source: over 2 years ago
