I don’t know this artist. But I do know that auto tune is rampant among social media singers. I don’t have the software to see if it is being used here.
You don’t need software. This is definitely autotuned, but she is a good singer. One thing to listen for is that the pitch is so perfect it almost sounds like a synthesizer. You can’t fake the timbre of the voice though, which is why I say she’s a good singer.
I always love watching performers build up a song, and this is no exception.
Side note: Ugh. Loops doesn’t have an embed API (yet?). Just emailed them asking if they would consider adding the
og:videometadata to the page headers.I’m an amateur web dev, is that really all it takes with HTML?
More or less if you use JS to fetch the link and parse the meta tags in its header. Lemmy does that when you submit a post with a link, and it’ll pull the title, description, image, and video properties and include them with the post detail.
From there, it’s just a matter of detecting those and rendering them.
Going down New and saw this post after posting on your embeddeding test. Whatever you did, it worked!
I had to go to the Loops page and copy the video URL from there, unfortunately (e.g it wasn’t a standard embed).
That test was just to primarily see if the video would embed at all and not be blocked by CORS or something.
Hopefully Loops will put the video URL in the metadata to make things easy. If not, I may attempt a workaround
Super cool. I am hoping that Loops will be easily integrated into Lemmy at some point to where it shows on my feed as if I were on loops with the setting option to auto-start or not, and when I upvote they get the heart.
Btw Admiral Patrick has embedded Loops videos at https://tesseract.dubvee.org/c/loops@midwest.social. It’s a full embed of the video, though not full integration of Loops as you were saying - e.g. there’s no heart icon or comments, though he keeps adding more features to the embed like metadata display. Cool! 😎
Awesome. I’m going to try it out! Excited to see progress happen so fast
I have an idea, let’s make a video sharing website and add no volume control at all!
Please keep in mind that it is a Tiktok replacement - i.e. meant for mobile devices, as the vertical nature suggests. And mobile devices already have volume controls? Hence that is a “mute” button, not a volume control, and while the project is still in its early stages, I doubt that they would add that functionality bc it would introduce tension between the user’s natural inclination to hit their device volume knob rather than have to use the embedded control.
On the other hand, I see SO MANY people criticizing the lack of that feature, perhaps they should make the video player work slightly differently when viewed from a desktop? But is that really what people want - wouldn’t people on a desktop still not enjoy watching content on a vertical axis that was meant for a mobile screen?
It’s probably a cost to benefit trade-off that they have to make hard decisions on, given how few people are willing to devote their time in return for no remuneration to this project. Honestly I’m surprised that so many people on Lemmy of all places aren’t receptive to such a FOSS project in its early stages yet coming along so quickly.
I hope you don’t feel that I’m picking on you, just sharing my thoughts. Please feel free to respond however you like:-).
It’s good to see Tiktok content leaking over there.
That’s awesome!
Side note, is there any way to actually open the user’s profile on Loops? I’ve tried clicking everything on the page and can’t seem to open it.
I don’t have a Loops account myself - this is a repost - but perhaps it needs an account to work?
It’s also extremely early in its development so perhaps that is something that is not even implemented yet.:-)
