Re: I need a good boffin.
I heard it was
Somewhere in the distance
Hidden from view
Suspended in the atmosphere
Waiting to come through
Sometimes it's so far away...
Forces have been looting
My humanity
Curfews have been curbing
The end of liberty
We're the flowers in the dustbin...
No fuchsias for you.

Re: I need a good boffin.
To any VLC boffins out there, I've been mixing and matching Rat Patrol tracks and when i drop them in VLC they automatically group themselves based on which mix they are from. Even after I change the metadata there doesn't seem to be any change here. Does anyone know how to get VLC to think that all the tracks are from the same album and place them in order?

Re: I need a good boffin.
I've never used VLC, but are you changing the metadata in it? Can you not change it in something else first?Kory wrote: ↑21 May 2021, 6:19pmTo any VLC boffins out there, I've been mixing and matching Rat Patrol tracks and when i drop them in VLC they automatically group themselves based on which mix they are from.

Re: I need a good boffin.
The stuff I'm reading says that changing the metadata within VLC should be enough, but it doesn't seem to be taking for some reason. Do you know another way to change metadata for a FLAC file?Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑21 May 2021, 7:13pmI've never used VLC, but are you changing the metadata in it?

Assuming you're a Mac guy, I use xACT for FLAC stuff. It does have a tagging option.Kory wrote: ↑21 May 2021, 7:19pmThe stuff I'm reading says that changing the metadata within VLC should be enough, but it doesn't seem to be taking for some reason.

Re: I need a good boffin.
Either my search terms are wrong or this doesn't exist, so I'll ask here. I'm looking for a power adapter brick for a Macbook Air but with more than one usb-c port on it, so a person could simultaneously charge two laptops or phones or tablets or whatever. When I find ones with multiple ports, it's only one usb-c. Anyone have better search skills than me or know that such a beast just doesn't exist?
edit: Never mind. I've finally located one.

Re: I need a good boffin.
I think this may be what you're looking for, but I can't seem to get the link to Amazon.com to work, it doesn't appear in this post, even after editing, but here are a couple of screen captures.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑20 Jun 2021, 3:07pmEither my search terms are wrong or this doesn't exist, so I'll ask here.

Re: I need a good boffin.
I found one for CAN$50 with two usb-c ports that handles up to 100W, so it'll do two simultaneously quite nicely.Sparky wrote: ↑20 Jun 2021, 3:21pmI think this may be what you're looking for, but it's kind of pricey.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑20 Jun 2021, 3:07pmEither my search terms are wrong or this doesn't exist, so I'll ask here.
