Little programs or scripts or automations you’ve created ad-hoc to solve a particular single use case

I have lots of shortcuts i make on my phone and I have one i love that detects when bluetooth accidentally or purposefully disconnects from my speaker and reconnects it and fixes a playback glitch so its back to playing properly

    script that saves the current buffer of my continously running screen recorder to a file

    Curious to know why you are continuously recording your screen. Must fill up your hard drives really quickly?

      Why: I case I want to show something unplanned to someone. Freak accident in a game, for example.
      Disk: It’s only keeping the latest 30 minutes in a buffer. Saving basically means copying that buffer to a different file.

        Ah, cool.

        Sounds kind of like the Nvidia tool for Windows.

        Speaking of which, as well as your use case, I found this tool a while ago that looks and does pretty much the same thing: “GPU Screen Recorder”, found on flathub via “com.dec05eba.gpu_screen_recorder”.

        I hope it comes to use for anyone!

                I read through the readme and the config file example. Looks pretty neat! I might take a look at that to see if I can use it too.

                The last release talks about a future 1.0 release, and “experimental” stuff. But that was 4 years ago.

                Is it inactive? 🫤
