Also, there are fewer controls while watching the video, but this doesn't bother me. I did have to reduce the desired resolution to 360 to get the full video frame, but I blame my 1240 x 600 display for that. LL still uses less CPU than MX-15, but they are both way down from using VLC or SMPlayer. Bingo! With mplayer the backend to SMTube, Youtube videos played just fine in both distros. Then I tried mplayer, which is a command line program. I installed and tried SMPlayer with better results than VLC, but with the video lagging the audio by about 1 second in MX-15. But MX-15 ran with 100% CPU usage and usually the image froze while the sound played.Īfter some bumbling around I went to the SMTube settings menu and found that it could use several different players. Well, with this setup LL did OK playing the videos at about 80-90% CPU usage. To avoid browser issues, I installed SMTube in both distros, with VLC being the player it calls. (LL is my preferred distribution, but I like to play around with alternatives.) Playing Youtube videos has been a challenge on this little machine. My Gateway LT40 notebook computer runs a dual boot with LL and AntiX's MX-15. (If you view this PKGBUILD’s history, you’ll see that this is essentially all that the maintainer does: change the version number and SHA256 checksum. Then when prompted, click on Edit build files, and make the above two changes under the PKGBUILD tab. Now click Apply in the bottom of Pamac’s window. In Pamac’s GUI, find the package 4kvideodownloader and force it to rebuild by clicking on the Build button.

This will result in the latest version of 4K Video Downloader on your system, and fully managed by your package manager, just like any other package. Now you can build and install it with Pamac’s GUI itself (by editing the PKGBUILD file). In the case of 4kvideodownloader, you only need to change two values, and it should properly build and install.Ĭhange the pkgver number to this: pkgver=4.Ĭhange the first SHA256 checksum to this: sha256sums=('09d51a368883cdd24ea4b0eb9051a2306e58f8cc841c314c31ca266be87ec141' my problem is I have the updated version but installing it is beyond my knowledge.Ī good PKGBUILD is one that only needs a small revision to work with updated software from upstream. Thanks, but the version on the AUR is outdated.
