    I miss physical buttons and controls. Everything is going touchscreen but there's something to be said for tactile feedback. Very cool to see this.

      The project yes is impressive indeed, but I find it a bit disturbing that you are reading everything from somewhere below the camera and that the explanations were way too brief.

    • @mrcounterpack
      @mrcounterpack 11 месяцев назад +4

      @@codyrap95I completely disagree. @makeit4less clearly has lots of knowledge about these things; more impressive than that, however, is his knowledge of the average RUclips content consumer. People generally have short attention spans and don’t care too much about the specifics. They just want to see cool stuff. This guy did exactly that

  • @jordansime6684
    @jordansime6684 10 месяцев назад +72

    I absolutely love this, tactile feedback is so important.
    With that said, the whole idea of this is somewhat ironic. We've spent the better part of the past half-century getting rid of 'dedicated' devices like the camcorder, walkman, newspaper, etc... by combining them into the smartphone. The smartphone was supposed to be the "all in one" device to make everything convenient for you. Now, we're back to "now you can like, skip, and pause songs without having to take your phone out of your pocket!".
    The idea of having *everything* in one place sure does sound nice, but when everything is the same, it's hard to find stuff. Everything is doing everything it can to grab your attention, it all fades into a busy mess. Muscle memory and tactile feedback are important. Smartphones seem to ignore this. There's something inherently satisfying about a physical button press bringing you back to a familiar spot. Gesture based navigation and software navigation buttons need to go away.

    • @makeit4less
      @makeit4less  10 месяцев назад +12

      I had not really thought about that when making the device but you are absolutely right! I think I might build that idea out into a series of videos!

      @jakobc9348 6 месяцев назад +4

      i like to think of phones like a swiss army knife, sure it can do all those things if you need it to but its jsut about the worst way if you had another option, like phone cameras they are great to always have around but they will never be the same as a dedicated camera, my favorite part is how teachers used to tell us that we wont be walking around with calculators all the time.....but now we do lmao

    Your content is very high quality: Entertaining, interesting and I learned some things too. You definitely deserve more folllowers, but I'm pretty sure those will come. I do think it could be an idea to have an accompanying video that dives into the code a bit. Ofc I can just look at the source code, but since this also seems like a doable project for a beginner, they might appreciate getting to know the code a bit which could allow them to customize the project to their liking or even extend it.

    Cool project - very similar to the Shopify API from Brian Lough.

      Disagree. I'd rather have a potentiometer since I can look at the position of the knob and know exactly where I am at with my volume setting. Rotary encoders are great for many things but volume knobs are not one of those.

    • @ChunkySteveo
      @ChunkySteveo Год назад +14

      @BryceCassagneres what happens when the knob is at 99% travel and your volume on Spotify is at 1% volume? Pots are ideal for amps, speakers, etc, but this one is adjusting an unknown volume number and adjusting it by a set amount. If I change the volume on Spotify with my phone, the pot is left at the same position, regardless of the volume change. For a system that can have multiple controller inputs, you need a dial that does not have set values or min/max travel.
      I'd have a pot on an AMP or a set of speakers over a rotary encoder - definitely!
