    VLC playback delay on seek (jump to another timestamp)
    [14:19] schestowitz[TR2]
    [14:19] schestowitz[TR2]

    What we need to do is change the caching value for Input / Codecs. This is similar to the prefetch value problems I've had with Samba share streaming. Open VLC preferences, then click All. In the search field, type caching (or similar). In the sidebar results below, select Advanced > Input / Codecs. Then, on the right, scroll down to the section called Advanced (yes, multiple Advanced fiel [14:19] schestowitz[TR2] ds).

    [14:19] schestowitz[TR2]

    Here, the first entry will be File caching (ms). For me, the default value was set to 1000ms (1s), and this neatly corresponds to the jitter/jump that occurs when you seek. Not sure WHY the problem manifests all of a sudden, but that's something we should solve another time - or not, and let the people who develop the code, player, desktop environment and distro figure it out as part of t [14:19] schestowitz[TR2] heir QA, right.

Essentially customer growth is flat to slightly declining per year. (yep a mature marketplace Not any growth but not much shrinkage either) So what is a CFO to do? Cost take out via shifting the labor pool is something that hits the bottom line quickly. Another bottom line change that [21:42] schestowitz[TR2] hits quickly is fooling around with the defined pension. The CFO is looking around in the couch cushions for any loose change as the traditional legacy business isnt growing. The buy innovation strategy is growing because of IBMs ability to act as a distribution channel for those products worldwide. NOTE for the buy innovation strategy to work and continue growing it must also encompass retiring the legacy costs (cost take o [21:42] schestowitz[TR2] ut) of the HW and SW that it replaces. THUS the RAs (eg pieces of the business they are exiting) Ask yourself if Hashicorp can replace a large percentage of on shore legacy employees due to modern AI SW, why wouldnt you as the CFO pull that trigger? The RA of legacy costs drops to the bottom line instantly as the purchase cost is financed. Now for the cherry on top, why as the CFO wouldnt you stand up the support staff of [21:42] schestowitz[TR2] Hashicorp in India where labor costs are 1/3 that of elsewhere? Its a win/win and its exactly what IBM is doing. They dont need 6x the employees in India, as the modern SW is far more efficient. 1 for 1 replacement works just fine and india captures the employment base. The legacy customers dont see a difference as the new Hashicorp SW is far more efficient vs the legacy. [21:42] schestowitz[TR2] " ● Nov 14 [22:25] schestowitz[TR2]
