• Impossible to convert from EPUB to PDF

  I convert EPUBs to PDFs often with Zamar @ zamzar.com. You are limited to 2 or 3 free conversions per day. When you get to the site, note that "Convert to" format is found by having to scroll down a lot in column 2 under Document formats, which is below image types at the top of column. I have never checked for safety but I have been using this site for years. Note there's also a file size limit on conversions.... Source: over 1 year ago

• Powerpoints With Flash Interactive Animations/Videos

  If your flash file is a simple animation/movie with no interaction, you might be able to find an app or site (zamzar.com maybe?) that'll convert it into a PPT-friendly video format. Source: about 3 years ago

• How do I open an older PowerPoint file?

  I've heard that zamzar.com can convert files from very old PPT versions. If you haven't tried that already, I'd give it a go. Source: about 3 years ago

• Unable to fix corrupted PowerPoint files - Is there any way to recover the data from these files?

  One other thing, I think I've heard of people using zamzar.com to convert problem files. Worth a try! Source: about 3 years ago

• So, how do you get music for your self-hosted server?

  This should help substantially: https://picard.musicbrainz.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 9 days ago

• "Unacceptable": Spotify bricking Car Thing devices in Dec. without refunds

  No need to use the server, Navidrome allows any client to connect remotely (WAN included) and play music that is hosted on the server. It also can be set up to transcode on the fly uncompressed music when it is accessed from a metered connection to minimize bandwidth usage. I barely scratched its surface, but it looks promising. The only requirement is that it needs the correct metadata to identify songs and... - Source: Hacker News / 23 days ago

• Mp3tag – The Universal Tag Editor

  I highly recommend Musicbrainz Picard: https://picard.musicbrainz.org/ It will match against the Musicbrainz database and will acoustically ID your files, so the tags can be completely wrong. Just dump folders of albums into the client, it will group and sort things and ID them. It works great. - Source: Hacker News / 23 days ago

• Fans quitting Spotify to save their love of music (2022)

  Have you tried https://www.funkwhale.audio/? It can be used effectively as a "private spotify". Labeling is a solved problem thanks to https://picard.musicbrainz.org/, and the fact that a lot of the music you buy these days comes pre-labeled already. You then have a web-app (and/or a mobile app, if that's your thing) where you can stream music as you would with Spotify. You can even build yourself a little... - Source: Hacker News / 3 months ago

• What do you use to tag your music on an NAS (Unraid)?

  I use picard for my collection. My work flow is Picard > Lyrics Finder > Foobar for BPM, RealGain and DR > Custom python script to pull genre and mood from Last.FM and spotify> then Advanced Renamer to perform naming clean up of folder names. I lowercase and underscore spaces. Also does files if I happen to need Mp3Tag when Picard doesn't find anything. Once this is done I move files on to may NAS. Source: 6 months ago
