Because it was one of the distributions on which all of the apps I've tested worked, I prefer RHEL-based to Debian-based, and DVR specifically lists Rocky Linux as supported.

@@heidbrink_dev I would strongly recommend using something like Fedora (there's a KDE spin available) or something based on it like Nobara if you're really set on using something in the RHEL family. I also really recommend enabling the RPM Fusion repositories if you do use Fedora to make your life much easier, which among other things allows you to download the Nvidia drivers straight from the package manager. The issue with distros like Rocky/Debian/RHEL is that your software selection will be much more limited out of the box, and you'll be running significantly older packages and an older kernel (I'm only guessing here, but that might explain your Wayland problems too). They're made for people who want a stable, unchanging system for a long time, which is why they describe themselves as enterprise operating systems.

"I tend to steer more people to the Debian family of distros lately though." I'm curious about this. Because of better stability/ease of use/business-readiness/support/...?

@@heidbrink_dev You could get Tuxcare on any distro. But if we are talking enterprise level support, I might steer them towards an Ubuntu. Personally at home I use Linux Mint 22 on my desktops. LMDE on my servers (very specific use case. I got wifi dongles. And long story short, LMDE was the best way I could get as Vanilla a Debian experience with Btrfs support.). And vanilla Debian on my VMs. If i needed that kind of support, I would consider either Tuxcare or Ubuntu Pro. To stay in the Debian family.

Agreed, using pfSense/MikroTik/... may be easier and more likely to represent an actual production setup. My reason for making this video on how to do it manually was to be able to reference it later. That way I can simply link to it whenever I'm using a NAT gateway while setting up different networking components like: ua-cam.com/video/Mf2YVKPx3Mo/v-deo.html

Easily? I'm suffering right now, trying to get an OPNsense cloud server to work properly. The interface and Hetzner gateways as well as different subnets are making this harder to configure than it should be. Sometimes it feels like a blackbox, because of side effects and delay. The method in this video on the other hand is easier to understand and shows what has to be done "under the hood" and why. Now I just have to transfer that knowledge to the OPNsense interface -.-

Fedora KDE would have been my first choice if DVR had worked out of the box. I've heard people advise caution with RedHat distributions, do you see any issues in that regard? As far as I could understand, they base their concerns on previous licensing decisions RedHat has made.

Well, I am not completely sure about DVR working or not, but just doing some quick research on Reddit I found a lot of guides of making it work, with some low effort put into it As for the other topic, the open-source community is weird, they make everything seem much bigger than it is, for example there was a case not long ago Fedora wanting to introduce some data collection, first, this data collection feature could be turned off during installation ON IT'S OWN separate window with one button click, and the data collection itself is fully open source, fully anonymous, and all that, and even with all these the community acted like if Fedora would have put a backdoor for the NSA secretly inside their OS So, what I wanted to say is, just don't listen to the community when it comes to these type of topics, a lot of people take things too far for too little reasons I am using Fedora since years, never left me on the side of the road, the community is wide and helpful AND as it has connections to an enterprise, it's one of the most developed distro in my honest opinion Till this day, when there was something debatable, Fedora people listened to their community and tried to solve situations in the most beneficial way for both sides, with more or less success in some cases But all in all, if all that's keeping you from trying it is some overly cautious people trying to scare new users away, then I would suggest not listening to them But again, it's a free world, all up to you what you do, do your research and act based on that, but if you are a complete beginner, you are most likely better off with Fedora than most other distros like Ubuntu or Rocky or even Debian If licencing and all that is really your concern, try Linux Mint, but FROM MY EXPERIENCE there you get stuck between two fighting sides, namely the Linux Mint team and Canonical/Ubuntu (For this reason the Linux Mint team tried to distance themselves form being based on Ubuntu and made a Debian based Linux Mint, but there you have the problem of packages being mostly out of date, and the update process of the packages being slow/buggy)

What are the main differences between Ubuntu and Ubuntu Studio? I'm not familiar with the latter.

Studio is a flavor of Ubuntu that comes pre-loaded with a lot of open source creative software.

Thank you. You mean a tutorial for the same setup but using Ubuntu instead of Fedora?

Interesting. Did it break during/after installing upgrades? Or just randomly? Just a hunch, but could running out of disk space be due to the default LVM configuration (which doesn't allocate 100% of your physical volume per default if I remember correctly)?

Some friend had an issue with the space... it turns out he had LOTS of restore points (5 daily) might be worth checking if that's the same issue

@@DARvlogs I figured out my problem. Dont use the default partitioning when installing Rocky Linux. The default settings will cause the home partition to quick run out of space. You can use the default settings as a template that you go in an adjust to be more suitable. The default was making '/' only 70G. I learned my lesson and Im back using Rocky Linux

Good point. It was working with X11 when following the official documentation. If you want to be strict and expect Wayland to work out of the box as well, then Rocky would've been disqualified. Yes.

I couldn't get AV1 encoding working with OBS for some reason, not exactly sure why.

Thank you. :) I heard about Kdenlive as well but was hesitant as my current flow with DVR, while still being far from professional, is working reasonably fast and well for me at the moment. Fully agree about "pushing" people out of their comfort zones. That's when you start learning most in my experience. Although I also understand people being cagy about switching if they rely on Windows/macOS for their professional work and can't justify spending a significant amount of time learning/configuring a new system.

I presume you store your raw footage on a shared drive/NAS/similar solution? If not, did you set up a shared partition to be able to access files regardless of which OS you boot into?

​@@heidbrink_dev I've got an SSD where I installed Fedora, another SSD dedicated to Windows (so my dual boot is on separate SSDs). And to store my files, I use an external HDD, (formatted) in NTFS. I've been thinking about getting a NAS, but I'm still thinking about it, since I only use it on my desktop PC, so I'm not sure it's really worth the investment, plus I'm not running out of storage just yet. It's not the fastest way to edit my media, but it gets the work done.

Funny that you say that because you're correct at the consumer / prosumer levels. But at the same time, in the big studios for the most part, they use Linux. For example, I heard DreamWorks is 100% Linux. And I know from experience that a bunch of other post-production houses use Resolve with $30,000 controllers in Linux boxes, specifically using Rocky Linux, now that CentOS was discontinued

For sure. I also heard that Manjaro comes with NVIDIA drivers preinstalled and working (with Wayland) out of the box.

I installed Linux Mint on my brother's PC, and it was a smooth experience indeed. I've specifically wanted to not use any "poweruser" features of linux like the terminal, and it worked basically out of the box.

Wow, you were able to set everything up without touching the terminal once? Nice. :)

Setting up and using Windows or macOS is definitely easier for most users. I agree.

In my experience, setting up Windows is also painful, especially with Windows 11.

Especially the forced Microsoft account sign-in... skippable (with some jumping through hoops) for now. I expect it won't be in the next major release.

Thank you.

Thank you. :)
