MLX-VLM lets you run, chat with, and fine-tune Vision Language Models (VLMs) plus audio/video models on your Mac using MLX—install easily with `pip install -U mlx-vlm`. Use CLI for quick text/image/audio generation (e.g., `mlx_vlm.generate --model ... --image photo.jpg`), Gradio UI for chats, Python scripts, or a FastAPI server with OpenAI-compatible endpoints supporting multi-images/videos. Features like TurboQuant cut KV cache memory by 76%, and LoRA/QLoRA fine-tuning works on consumer hardware. You benefit by experimenting with powerful multimodal AI locally—fast, memory-efficient, no cloud costs, perfect for Mac users tweaking models affordably.

📰 FFmpeg Introduces Vulkan-Accelerated 360 Degree Video Conversion
Beyond the capabilities of just the Vulkan Video API, the FFmpeg multimedia library has made interesting Vulkan-accelerated adaptations using compute shaders. With Vulkan compute they've implemented Apple ProRes video acceleration, FFV1 decode, and other features. The newest Vulkan feature now in place for FFmpeg is 360 degree video conversion...

Кстати! Я всем советую попробовать HandBrake — программу для ужатия видео.
Это графический интерфейс для мощной библиотеки ffmpeg, которая заточена на перегонку видео в разные форматы.
Я в основном использую для уменьшения размера файлов, чтобы телеграм проигрывал их без звука автоматически
Тут подробнее писал как это работает
Анимацию постом выше я просто закинул и без изменения настроек перегнал из mpg в mp4. Размер изменился с 4.5мб до 300кб
А для тизера «Коротких вопросов» нажав две кнопки, смог уменьшить файл со 167 мб до (!) 3 мб. За счет уменьшения размера сторон с 4к до 720p.
На мобиле разницы скорее всего не будет видно, а вовлечение в просмотр повысится — сплошная польза!
Работает на всех платформах, в том числе на маке и линуксе!

🔖 The creator of ffmpeg Fabrice Bellard(1) is truly a genius and has created so many amazing software that have been an amazing benefit to the world. | Hacker News #pinboard#pantheon#ffmpeg#person
Yeah definitely. If programming genius had a unit it should be called the bellard.
One 10x programmer = a 1/10th Bellard?

This is Probably the Best Video Downloader App (And it is Free and Open Source) | itsFOSS
VidBee allows you to download videos from YouTube, Facebook, X, Instagram, etc. In fact, it supports over 1,800 websites.
It is built on top of popular command line tools like yt-dlp and #ffmpeg. For the interface, it uses the Electron framework. I understand that some people dislike Electron framework as it runs a web browser underneath, but the 'advantage' of this framework is that you get the same interface in all the operating systems. At least, it's an advantage for the developers as they don't have to build the interface separately for #Linux, #Windows and #macOS.
The source code for VidBee is available on its GitHub repository.
