Sabayon Linux - Closer to a "real" episode
🕑 Added 2020-06-17 00:00:50 +0000 UTCThis just might be the first episode that feels like a Distro Delves episode. It was rife with technical difficulties so bad that I thought my Elgato actually died on me. I was seriously tempted to film parts of the video in a VM.
Besides the technical challenges, I wrote a script of notes as I filmed Sabayon (instead of after) and I feel like it made the episode flow together much better than when I follow the checklist and record the voice-over on the fly without notes.
I swapped to the Radeon card after installing the Sabayon daily image and I think it came out really well. This is a good test-case for more dynamic episodes - some using Nvidia and others using Mesa!
On the technical difficulties - the video is in 720p because the Elgato couldn't render 1080p all of the sudden. The framerate varies throughout the video because it also suddenly couldn't handle 60fps.
I bought a new capture device so this might be the last one recorded with the stupid Elgato HD60. Hurray!
