really tired of people using AI for posters in the scene

Reject AI

Plenty of people will make you a poster for free look around you we are all starving artists

egad, they put [echo] in my [spacious area]

yes.

it fluctuates between 25mb/s and 2mb/s, the dsl connection here is... "strong"
even on good days (+15mb/s) a couple months ago, rtspt was having some major issues in regards to audio artifacts on many 5.1 streams, but it's nice to see somehow it's mostly resolved :p

noted, i am experiencing some minor blips but nothing near as bad as it was a few months ago, and it's more than likely my 2mbps upload speed... lol
i'll keep testing setups and documenting what i can. anything more impactful, i'll bring it up in discord
thx for the recs (:

i follow the same OBS setup provided from the wiki, only change is setting track-1's bitrate to 800 within the output > audio tab

using rtspt, it tends to be wildly unstable where mpegts is fine

i'll see if i can grab some proper examples later and throw em in the discord srv, if that helps

i primarily noted this issue over vrcdn with track-specific bitrates over 320, otherwise rtspt was stable

pretty sure this was brought up once or twice in discord (not by me) regarding using arc and experiencing the same

it should be noted that RTSPT is probably not a good choice for low latency 5.1, and MPEG-TS is very recommended when using VRCDN to mitigate a lot of the glitchiness when streaming 5.1

you've got the idea, essentially if we can't have audio filters in Unity, we've gotta do them in pre-processing the stream

running an entire DAW just for this is kinda overkill, so STIR is a very lightweight OBS implementation

it's that simple now
add filter select channel get audio

v1.0.0. github.com/minteeaa/stir

this is good news
you can be a bee

vencord (venmic iirc) for audio sharing (with wayland, at least)

steamvr is abandonware on linux, even monado isnt perfect rn; might even just be better to use non-native headsets for compat atp

genuinely yall can’t get upset abt these weirdos anymore. just clown on them it pisses them off so bad when ur full of joy and whimsy and have a little fun.

go, my corn.

The bossa Nova lounge has VRC Light Volumes support now! And remember if you wish to experience surround sound all you need to do is install the stir OBS plugin and use your mpeg.ts link

You will live for 30 years.

ProTV preset package, proper documentation to kickstart, and the release of 0.2.0 with better filters

github.com/minteeaa/stir/wiki/

go ham, go funky
no this will not be regular posting from me

or i might be insane and blendshapes are mainly for the rest of the face tracking, i just know my personal model has eyetracking specific blendshapes :p

most avis will have basic eyetracking (assuming eyelook is enabled in your descriptor), other than that you'll probably need eye tracking blendshapes/animations (whether you do it manually or thru an addon w/booth models)

thank you for your enjoyment of this system
thank you for participating in this showcase

this project is available @ github.com/minteeaa/stir

proper documentation, sample unitypackages, and features in the pipeline

if you like audio filters and nice surround sound you should drop by

this mintea guy sounds like they might enjoy dark jungle

audience viewing retention is about to be sky high

noise, hyperglitch, experimental all of the above yesyes

To showcase mintea's stir surround sound system, We will be hosting a showcase on the 9th of May. 1hr of Jungle and 1hr of Jazz. Join us at 10pm EST.

(Note: The steam audio beta is encouraged for this event)

I just want to say my heart goes out to the victims of the predatory behavior weve seen exposed. I've been through some pretty awful shit IRL that i wont be talking about publicly, but know ive been there, and im sorry you have had to go through these things.
