Support NeoGAF

[Riki]

Knocked together a Greasemonkey version of Andrex's code, for the Firefox users.

It works! THANK YOU SO MUCH!

 

[Dennis]

I'm only getting 12% usage and I have 3DS Max running in the background.

Edit: Or is it the autoplay? I can't test that.

Try the first page or some other page with a lof of webms.

You do also have an octocore processor.

 

[BigEvilTurtle]

Amazing. Seriously, thank you Andrex. Adding options for disabling auto-start and resize by clicking would be very cool.

 

[Poofynamanama]

moving pictures! what a time to be alive!

Got away with this. Thanks.

Awesome, thanks!

Would it be possible to have an option to not autoplay by default. It's one of the few things I so wished GIFs didn't do

Edit: nvm, the script was simple enough. Just changed it to 'video.autoplay = false;'. Boom! Static images until played.

 

[BigEvilTurtle]

Second page. OUCH.

Need to repost this.

Why does the neogaf plugin shrink the size so much? It's much bigger if you open it in a new tab.

 

[hateradio]

Maybe I'll incorporate WebM playback into my YouTube Me script.

The same GIF for comparison.

Like night and day in terms of clarity and smoothness!

 

[Wingfan19]

Some of them don't load with the Chrome or Firefox plugin, anyone else notice this?

 

[dekline]

Sooo anymore hi res .webms to test out? plz post

 

[Haly]

They're the ones hotlinked from 4chan which were removed on their server.

 

[enzo_gt]

Yup.

CPU usage for me too is way too high for this to be feasible. An on/off toggle would be cool for embedding though, like the mobile app has for all pictures/GIFs.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Andrex da goat. Now I can right click and save them to view in VLC.

 

[whitehawk]

I believe the ones on the first page are down because 4chan's image host service is temporary.

 

[JordanN]

Installed the FireFox script. The highest I got was 57% and it quickly drops down to 20-30%. Still with 3DS Max running in the background.

 

[ThatCrazyGuy]

Well, autoplay seems to fry my CPU...

edit: This page seems alright, but one of the pages on the gaming side powered up my fan in no time.

Thats my personal thing, I wish they didn't auto play, that first page in gaming is taxing my CPU quite a bit. Still damn cool though,

 

[Wingfan19]

Ah, that would make sense, thanks.

 

[Gentleman Jack]

This thread will be very depressing when all these 4chan links cycle out and stop working.

tbqh people should know better than to direct link from 4chan.

 

[andthebeatgoeson]

Android chrome is loading some fine for me and fucking up on others and staying on frame 2.

It might be my old phone though (galaxy nexus)

Nope, it's happening to me on a galaxy 3.

 

[Reversed]

I wonder how stressed pomf.se servers are right now (lol).

 

[Unknown One]

That CPU usage. It's like I'm playing a game.

WebM for NeoGAF (Chrome extension)

page 4 killed my cpu lol. Granted I have a shitty AMD 6800k on my work machine

 

[TheSeks]

WebM for NeoGAF (Chrome extension)

Making that stupid screenshot took most of the time, lol. If anyone wants to port it to Firefox or whatever the code ain't complex:

'use strict';

var videos = document.querySelectorAll('.post a'),
  link, video;

for (var i = 0; i < videos.length; i++) {
  link = videos[i].href;
  if (link.indexOf('.webm') === link.length - 5) {
    video = document.createElement('video');
    video.src = link;
    video.autoplay = true;
    video.loop = true;
    video.muted = true;
    video.width = '500';
    
    videos[i].parentNode.replaceChild(video, videos[i]);
  }
}

There might even be a better way to do it, dunno. Spent about 10 minutes on this haha.

Anyway to make an option to loop/not-loop as a toggle?

 

[ThatObviousUser]

Someone should make an Imgur for WebM.

(Don't say I should do it because then I will and it'll take up my whole week, lol.)

Right click -> Uncheck loop?

 

[Ran rp]

Click to play instead of autoplay would be perfect.

This. Even more so with the crazy number people are posting on this and the other thread.

Thanks.

Now someone needs to fix the CPU usage

 

[Mr.Mike]

I'm getting 100% usage when I have the first pages of both .webm thread open. Although everything seems to be running fine.

 

[Unknown One]

Yeah, I don't want to stress out my CPU too much since I'm mostly browsing gaf.

 

[whitehawk]

(Don't say I should do it because then I will and it'll take up my whole week, lol.)

gfycat pretty much is that already

http://gfycat.com/

upload a video, gif, or fetch from youtube etc and it will create both a webm file and gif file. No size limit either.

 

[Evilisk]

I think this is a usable video->webm converter . I'm still in the process of making one but it seems to work fine atm

 

[BraXzy]

(Don't say I should do it because then I will and it'll take up my whole week, lol.)

Andrex you should totally make like.. an Imgur for WebM. That'd be awesome!

Spoiler

Sorry :3

 

[jman2050]

Add some GUI options to control stuff like autoplaying, autolooping, native or set width etc. and have click-to-play and it'd be even better.

Oh yes!

 

[Tesseract]

i guess that's it then, rip gif.

 

[LOLDSFAN]

This thread just got 10 times better.

I'm ready for Smash Direct.

Thanks, Andrex.

 

[Cipherr]

Thanks for the Chrome plugin for GAF, this is awesome. I saw a little spike in CPU usages, but Ill bet most of us have plenty of CPU room to spare over bandwidth, These load incredibly fast and have remarkable quality. Win.

 

[JJDinomite]

Thank you based i7 processor

I'm not sure how that usage measuring works, but I'm not getting any sort of lag or slowdown even at "100%" usage. I suspect it might be reserving a lot of resources that it doesn't really need. So yea, we should all be fine.

 

[Coreda]

With all these large (in file size and width) webm examples I wonder if the issue of bandwidth consumption will be solved, or whether small bloated gifs will just be replaced with similar file size HD WIFs/WAIFs as we realize how much more efficient they are.

.

Maybe I'm ignorant, but I don't see the problem. Might as well put that CPU to use and run them properly. GIFs may not have been CPU intensive, but they were also played back terribly.

 

[Shiggie]

Click to play instead of autoplay would be perfect.

please. this so much

 

[Ran rp]

I get about 70-80% CPU usage on the heavier pages. Around 40-50% on just this one. But I do have a few other tabs open.

 

[Delusibeta]

I've bashed together a non-autoplaying version of aforementioned Greasemonkey script. For this inital version, right click > Play starts the show. I want to get the controls showing by default (to distinguish WebMs from standard still pictures), but for a quick and dirty script at half three in the morning, it's not bad.

Here's half a meg of Kill la Kill, to demonstrate.
