@autodidact Could you please provide the 64-bit OpenSSL libraries again? 🙏 It is updated to 3.6.4

I can actually browse GitHub in New Moon 32-bit (latest), but during page load CPU goes to 100% for a while and when that has settled down, clicking on something makes it go to 100% again... Scrolling reacts very slow. (XP SP3 VM; 3.5GB RAM; 1 core assigned)

I've had the same issues with the Dutch language pack. Some things have to be changed in the .xpi file. Regarding the German language pack; @AstroSkipper should be able to help you out.

Have you updated your uBlock Origin filters? A week ago some new filters have been added to uBlock filters – Ads: /shadow/*adshield$domain=mail.yahoo.com /ybar/mail.yahoo.com/_t/aHR0c*$xhr,3p,domain=mail.yahoo.com

Are you sure you have version from vladimir-andreevich ? https://github.com/vladimir-andreevich/node.js-windows-7/tree/main/v20 Take the zip file for your architecture and extract it to e.g. C:\Bin\Node and then put that folder in your PATH.

No idea. When I run this version on Windows 7 (with all Server 2008 R2 ESU updates), I get: qjs -h QuickJS version 2026-06-04 usage: qjs [options] [file [args]] -h --help list options -e --eval EXPR evaluate EXPR -i --interactive go to interactive mode -m --module load as ES6 module (default=autodetect) --script load as ES6 script (default=autodetect) --strict force strict mode -I --include file include an additional file --std make 'std' and 'os' available to the loaded script -T --trace trace memory allocation -d --dump dump the memory usage stats --memory-limit n limit the memory usage to 'n' bytes (SI suffixes allowed) --stack-size n limit the stack size to 'n' bytes (SI suffixes allowed) --no-unhandled-rejection ignore unhandled promise rejections -s strip all the debug info --strip-source strip the source code -q --quit just instantiate the interpreter and quit On Windows 7, I use Node 20.19.2 from here as js interpreter. Much faster. Node 20 is not supported by yt-dlp any more since this commit, but in my build I reverted that change.

Well, the page loads here with Vorapis (slowly...), but the video doesn't. Bugs regarding the Vorapis project can only be discussed on Discord. Playing the video using the Open With extension and MPC-HC 2.2.1 from Maroc works very well though. Maroc is no longer active on the My Digital Life Forums and his link to Windows XP compatible MPC-HC has expired. I have preserved it in my Dropbox. Link (portable). Be sure that FFmpeg, yt-dlp and QuickJS are in your path.

Do you mean AV1? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AV1 AVC1: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Advanced_Video_Coding BTW, my latest version of yt-dlp is 2026.06.14

@autodidact There is a security update for OpenSSL (3.6.3). Would you be so kind to provide the 64-bit shared libraries for Windows again? 🙏

Thanks! Compressed with UPX, ffmpeg.exe is only 11.8MB.

Yes, I didn't really agree with that . If they want a smaller size, they could compress it with UPX. For now, I have reverted to the previous 'full' version.

@autodidact I tested your XP version of FFmpeg, but it failed to convert flac to mp3 due to missing codec/library (for parsing cover art): ffmpeg -threads 2 -y -i "Klaus Schulze - Mellotrone.flac" -acodec libmp3lame -q:a 0 "Klaus Schulze - Mellotrone.mp3" ffmpeg version N-124841-gb355200263-WINXP Copyright (c) 2000-2026 the FFmpeg developers built with gcc 14.3.1 (GCC) 20250901 configuration: --arch=x86 --target-os=mingw32 --prefix=/cygdrive/c/cygwin64/mingw-w64/i686-w64-mingw32 --cross-prefix=/cygdrive/c/cygwin64/mingw-w64/bin/i686-w64-mingw32- --extra-cflags='-O2 -mthreads -march=pentium4' --pkg-config=pkg-config --pkg-config-flags=--static --enable-gpl --enable-gray --enable-version3 --disable-bcrypt --disable-debug --disable-doc --disable-w32threads --disable-autodetect --disable-avdevice --enable-libmp3lame --enable-libfdk-aac --extra-version=WINXP libavutil 60. 32.100 / 60. 32.100 libavcodec 62. 36.101 / 62. 36.101 libavformat 62. 19.101 / 62. 19.101 libavfilter 11. 17.100 / 11. 17.100 libswscale 9. 8.100 / 9. 8.100 libswresample 6. 4.100 / 6. 4.100 Input #0, flac, from 'Klaus Schulze - Mellotrone.flac': Metadata: ARTIST : Klaus Schulze ALBUM : Contemporary Works I - CD 9 - Klaus Schulze: Ballett 4 GENRE : Electronic DATE : 2000 TITLE : Mellotrone DISCID : 220FE003 track : 1 TOTALTRACKS : 3 TRACKTOTAL : 3 Duration: 00:13:53.19, start: 0.000000, bitrate: 819 kb/s Stream #0:0: Audio: flac, 44100 Hz, stereo, s16 Stream #0:1: Video: png, none, 600x600, 90k tbr, 90k tbn (attached pic) Metadata: comment : Cover (front) title : cover.png [vost#0:0 @ 0003d580] Automatic encoder selection failed Default encoder for format mp3 (codec png) is probably disabled.

I tested with the Mojeek bot: MojeekBot/2.0 (compatible; http://www.mojeek.com/bot.html) It sees nothing now :

I just changed `general.useragent.override.msfn.org` to: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Googlebot/2.1; +http://www.google.com/bot.html) But why doesn't the administrator do something about it?

Indeed. This is what the bot sees when visiting this particular thread (screenshot of part of a long page):

Yes, searching for "msfn.org/board" on Bing also gives me sh*t results... So, Copilot is clearly hallucinating.

Update to Chromium 150.0.7863.0 changes and improvements: (#79) Use a simpler way to support MV2. (thanks to @bershanskiy)

[Announcement] ejs is dropping support for Node v20 and v21 There is a request for Node 22/24 on vladimir-andreevich/node.js-windows-7 but there is no answer yet.

10.6MB/s here (max).

You mean yt-dlp_linux_x86 ? B.t.w., Debian Bullseye support will end August 31 2026 and Debian Trixie is 64-bit only. So, I'll have to reconsider building yt-dlp for 32-bit on my LMDE VM, which will also lose support then...

@reboot12 Hmm... That looks rather complicated to do on Windows (I'm old...). Maybe I'll just have to learn to cross-compile FFmpeg on Linux with the native tools available. The thing is, the MinGW environment also has to be installed (1136MB).

I had it installed some time ago, but good havens that is bloated. Removed it. What can you suggest as a more lightweight compiler for Windows?

At the moment I'm using this one (GitHub built it in 40min): https://github.com/BnqDzj/FFmpeg-Builds-nonfree/releases It has all features you can think of.
