[05:55] <MooDoo> howdy all
[08:46] <diddledan> allo allo
[09:13] <brobostigon> morning
[09:15] <diddledan> oh gawd: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1734147
[09:23] <MooDoo> glad i don't have a lenovo
[11:08] <diddledan> it does seem telling that Ubuntu is randomly killing Lenovos and Microsoft had to prevent the Creator's Release of Windows from going to a slew of Lenovos, too, also due to EFI shenanigans
[11:57] <zmoylan-pi> and if you turn off efi and use good old bios does the problem persist?
[12:05] <MooDoo> wanna play tron in ssh ? ssh sshtron.zachlatta.com
[12:11] <brobostigon> wow, cool, :)
[12:14] <diddledan> lol: "vim keybindings for movement"
[12:14] <diddledan> so you can never get out
[12:19] <zmoylan-pi> you'll stay there till you learn vim like nature intended...
[23:36] <Azelphur> Does anyone know of any software I can use to stream the video/audio from aa Windows PC to a Linux one? I have tried moonlight and it'd be perfect apart from the audio sounds horrible
[23:38] <daftykins> on the same network? why is file sharing or UPnP not viable?
[23:38] <Azelphur> on the same network, yes, because there is no file, I want to stream the display output.
[23:39] <daftykins> can you backup with the actual task instead of that, sounds a bit x-y problem right now :>
[23:39] <zmoylan-pi> aren't there entire protocols to do streaming from one device to another... i seem to remember a bunch of letter soups for sharing video audio last time i used windows
[23:40] <Azelphur> daftykins: VR PC is in my office, and has a Vive connected to it via a long HDMI cable that runs into my lounge, HTPC is in my lounge. I want to be able to view the monitor of VR PC on my HTPC in the lounge, so that people can see what's going on in VR.
[23:40] <daftykins> ugh.
[23:40] <ali1234> so you want a steam link?
[23:41] <daftykins> don't think that's the same thing
[23:41] <Azelphur> ali1234: yes, except that doesn't work ( see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZPocek885M )
[23:41] <ali1234> put in a second HDMI cable
[23:42] <Azelphur> ali1234: that's an issue too, I would want to do display mirroring, but the TV only has one 4k HDMI input.
[23:42] <daftykins> time to get a receiver
[23:42] <daftykins> or a better TV :D
[23:43] <ali1234> or a bad ass HTPC that can do VR
[23:43] <Azelphur> I'm just wondering if I can achieve this with OBS, actually :)
[23:43] <Azelphur> ali1234: haha, because I totally need a third top end machine  in my home where only I live
[23:43] <Azelphur> xD
[23:47] <ali1234> "I would want to do display mirroring, but the TV only has one 4k HDMI input." - i don't see how they are related
[23:48] <daftykins> video also seems to suggest the solution is 'walk a few feet away and click a button' ;D
[23:48] <daftykins> = zero sympathy
[23:48] <Azelphur> ali1234: HTPC is using the 4k input, I can't now plug the VR PC into that same 4k input, as its in use
[23:49] <Azelphur> daftykins: but...effort :(
[23:49] <ali1234> get a switch box?
[23:49] <Azelphur> ali1234: that could also work
[23:49] <daftykins> hey buddy, you're the one that runs Linux :>
[23:49]  * daftykins ducks
[23:50] <Azelphur> daftykins: haha
[23:50] <ali1234> i was just setting up OBS actually
[23:50] <Azelphur> yea, apparently if I compile nginx with the RTSP module and set up OBS, it's possible
[23:51] <Azelphur> which sounds like a PITA, but at least it's a possibility
[23:51] <daftykins> my first dabble with it had me appreciating twitch streamers for editing layouts live, a whole lot more
[23:56] <ali1234> i need a green screen
[23:56] <daftykins> what would you stream? i thought you had dialup level upload :>
[23:57] <ali1234> i got better internet
[23:57] <daftykins> oh nice, what changed?
[23:57] <ali1234> switched to zen
[23:57] <daftykins> i thought your phone line was the problem?
[23:58] <ali1234> it still is, but VDSL is way faster to start with
[23:59] <daftykins> yeah i'm on VDSL2, but it's only faster depending on line length :>
[23:59] <ali1234> i had about 500kbit upload before, now its 20mbit
