  1. I'll try it this way, the potential problem is that the online site offering the videos has different qualities at different bitrates depending on user's bandwidth, so there's no direct URL for a single video. Let's see how it handles that
  2. Heal well, Colin.
  3. I've downloaded the trial of Wondershare AllmyTube which is less than 30 bucks, but the Chrome integration doesn't seem to work. I'll check later if it works on Safari in the website I want to grab videos from. If it doesn't, I can either try the Converter Ultimate, or installing Firefox and using the Video DownloadHelper. This one is some sort of add-on with a complement you need to install too, but it's a bit complicated to get the video files working, you need ffmpeg and running a few commands on Terminal which is not my cup of tea.
  4. Thanks. It looks more Youtube oriented, but it could work at other sites, who knows
  5. Yup, now that you mention it, I remember reading that. There were also a few laptops having the same limitation. It looks like Apple is going to discontinue the Mac Mini sooner than later though. Do you know some Mac software to download any type of video offered online like "VSO Downloader Ultimate" does in Windows? I've been trying some alternatives working like add-ons for Chrome (like Video Download Helper), but I didn't get the HLS files from the sites. It gets the URL, but the link won't work on JDownloader to get the required videos. It looks like the problem is converting the HLS into mpg, avi or other video format that can be written in the HDD.
  6. No idea which batches I got but both seemed consistently good to me. I wish Handy, Stagg Sr and all those were more affordable and available.
  7. No idea which is which between those.
  8. Yes, I saw that cover on Qobuz too and sampled a few tunes out of curiosity, but it's not the same type of music. I'm now listening to the new Laurie Anderson & Kronos Quartet "Landfall" which is freely available at the NPR's First Listen section.
  9. It's jazzy vocal pop. Her band is amazing, we attended her concert live a couple of years ago and had a great time. She sings with taste and soul, in the Billie Holiday or Amy Winehouse kind of way. She tries to give a different touch to standards and has her own compositions
  10. Melody Gardot - Live in Europe Kind of another nice album cover
  11. Happy Bday!!
  12. Yes, that's the kind of docking station I was referring to, but like that one, most offer a lot of functionalities that I don't need, so just a FB3>FW would be perfect and probably more sensibly priced. Hopefully someone makes that by the time I decide to get a new computer.
  13. I don't have TB2 devices, but I have some working on FW. If I get a modern Mac device I'd need either that or some sort of docking station converting a TB3 in several USB, FW and video/audio interfaces, but these I don't need.
  14. Oh, there’s a TB3 to TB2 dongle OMG [emoji849]
  15. This interests me. What’s the role of every dongle? TB3>?>FW
  16. Yeah, the back one
  17. The Manhattan Project - The Manhattan Project (1990) Wayne Shorter tenor saxophone, soprano saxophone Michel Petrucciani piano Pete Levin keyboards Gil Goldstein keyboards Stanley Clarke bass Lenny White drums
  18. New Volcanoes (Lafayette Gilchrist) - The Art is Life I couldn't find a cover online, sorry.
  19. This. I can't say it better nor more heartfelt. Happy Birthday, Mike!!!
  20. Collective stupidity doesn't make that price "reasonable" but I must accept your point. Sad days...
  21. In what universe is 1299$ for a pair of tubes "reasonable"? in Trump's where everybody is rich and beautiful?
  22. Happy Birthday, Adam!!!!

    Guitar-Case

    Which one? If you can get a Taylor or a Martin for the 300$ you stated on the first post it'd be my choice too, but there's no way you can find such thing over here. Nevermind, I've just seen at another thread that it's a Taylor. I wish you enjoy it

    Electroacoustic Yamahas from the late 90's and early 2000 are very decent and should be found in the sub 500$ range.
  25. Happy Birthday, Gwhatever!!! enjoy your DC
