YouTube channels can be terminated for both repeated copyright infringement and community guideline violations. In these cases, revenues are often withheld as well. It’s possible, however, that linked AdSense accounts are treated differently.

AdSense policies can be confusing, but based on additional information provided by Google’s AI, YouTube copyright bans are most likely to result in AdSense terminations too.

This is the first time I read of an AI as a source / AI being a source for an article.

MusicBee has Tools -> Manage Duplicates

For reference, the source file is background.js

URLs at the top, init calls at the bottom, and above that the event registering stuff (tab nav and nav).

Notably, 5.0.1 was released three days ago. So a fix is available.

The first patched release is version 5.0.1, released 2 days ago.

With Ollama you can install and use various free AI models.

What do you mean by Grammarly costs a lot of money? It has a free tier. Which is quite generous.

Seems strange that the dev seems to be keeping quiet on this, no?

Which one? The repo owner certainly doesn't seem very active in general.

They could steal your personal data without you knowing.

So very ironic when it's the opposite between them.

mkv is not a file archive format.

It's a media container format. Like mp4.

Both can include [file] resources, but that's different from a file archive having and extracting to files.

No prebuilt binary releases?

Any form of audio and video uses codecs. It applies to streaming websites as well. It's usually technological details that is not obviously disclosed to users for simplicity/convenience.

It's possible to inspect the stream and media, and find out what is being used. It may offer alternative streams, to support more efficient modern and less efficient older platforms.

Streaming can provide decent quality, but not high quality. That's simply too costly on scale.

Bit rate alone doesn't necessarily tell you quality either.

I suggest you look for downloads and look for

  1. Release Groups that match your intentions (once you found favorites you may want to stick to them)
  2. Screenshots on releases/info pages
  3. Encoding information

To assess encoding information, you look at file type, video codec, and encoding bit-ness.

From high to low compatibility, and low to high compression ratio:

  1. mp4 file, AVC/x264/h.264
  2. mkv file, HEVC/x265/h.265
  3. mkv file, HEVC, 10-bit
  4. mkv file, AV1 [10-bit]

You can consider the triplets of the codec to be different names for the same thing.

You'll be able to play all file and codec types on a PC, but not necessarily on other devices. If you're streaming from PC to something else, that's fine too.


I'm usually looking for 10-bit HEVC releases because of their vastly superior size for quality. If that's not available, HEVC or AVC. In most cases, it doesn't matter too much to me.

A video with a lot of movement or visual detail will have bigger sizes.


If you compare an AVC release and bitrate with a HEVC 10-bit release and bitrate, they are vastly different. You can get the same quality for a fraction of file size and bitrate. More bitrate is often a waste of bandwidth and storage space.
