/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'

~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.

Fun will now commence.

I think Lemmy UI will treat these as embeds. If not, i'll note just in case.

Notifications: Voy Door Chime 1

Calls/Ringtone: "Incoming Transmission"

Charger Connected: Power Up 1

So did I, lol. If you use the image syntax for audio/video files, they should embed in ~~most~~ some Lemmy clients. I was trying to be all fancy.

Edit: Apparently media embeds work in less Lemmy clients than I thought.

Trying in this space so as not to fuck up the original.

Door chime 1 or door chime 2?

Connect doesn't like it, but do you see anything?

[–] ptz@dubvee.org 4 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Yep shows as embeds for me. I use Tesseract, but I tried in Lemmy UI, and it embedded there too. The first one is my general notification sound. I updated my earlier comment with direct links as well as the embeds.

[–] ummthatguy@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Thanks for checking. I've been using what has now been changed from VOY to TNG chirp 1.

[–] ptz@dubvee.org 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I'm using a flip phone, but sadly I cannot set a sound for when you flip it open. Because I really want the old school communicator chirps when I flip it open.

It doubles as a fidget device, so I figured the shorter version would be more appropriate 😆

[–] dohpaz42@lemmy.world 4 points 2 months ago

It sort of works in Mlem. I have to use Quick Look, but it works.

[–] SatyrSack@feddit.org 3 points 2 months ago

It doesn't work on Thunder. But then again, video embeds do not work on Thunder either.

[–] andrew_s@piefed.social 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I think it's asking a lot - it's not unreasonable for libraries to convert the markdown format for embedded images into IMG SRC, but then the clients can't play them because they're not images. Ideally, I think, there should be different markdown for embedded videos and audio (but it doesn't look like there's anything official).

These clips play for me on PieFed, but only because after the markdown translation, they get regexed into the correct AUDIO tags.

[–] ptz@dubvee.org 2 points 2 months ago

Agreed, Yeah, there should be a dedicated syntax for media embeds. Lemmy-UI uses markdown-it and the extension markdown-it-html5-embed which is what extends the image syntax for audio/video. I duplicated that in Tesseract for feature parity, and Photon did as well. In both cases, we had to custom write renderers to match the Lemmy-UI syntax which is, for better or worse, the "standard" for Lemmy.

Answer: yes please!:-)
