    @@Aelepy16 people are using barebones linux for old thinkpads with old ass pentiums for development, with some tweaking you can actually stream 4k to an external monitor, like a tv or whatever. Linux works on arm as well, there is absolutely no excuse for apple to make a barebones tweakable ios for people to reuse their old products. It’s planned obsolescence. Anything “green” about apple is pure marketing speech, “please keep buying our newer products with smaller and smaller feature improvements, we care about you and your particular niche”.

    Fantastic video! Just to be clear, Keyboard Maestro is a one-time purchase for a specific major version (currently 9.x). Major upgrades are paid upgrades. This ensures we are working as much for existing customers as to expand the customer base. You are, of course, under no obligation to purchase the upgrade, so this means you can keep what you have purchased and not have to pay a subscription, but also that we will still be around working on improving Keyboard Maestro and adding features for when you choose to upgrade.

    Heres the biggest iPad advice I could give anyone. Download all the apps you would ever need or use right away on the iPad you have now. This way, when it ends up going obsolete 10 years down the road, you will already have all the apps you need downloaded. Sure some of them might not work, but most of them still will.

    @slacker stuff- Thanks for sharing, I think I'll look into installing the Keyboard Maestro on my iPad 1st Gen. I've seen many articles asking the question, is the iPad 1st gen still usable in 2021/22. I honestly can say, it depends, on the person and what their needs are and what they'll be using it for. I have a iPad 1st Gen, and my needs differ from those of the younger generation. I hear many say that they cannot take pictures, log onto Facebook, til tok, etc.. And the web browsing is slow, there's no denying that. But for me, I don't use social media as much and I use a actual camera to take pictures. Actually I'm old school, I shoot on 35mm film - that's a story for another topic. Anyway, I like to point out the usefulness of my iPad 1st Gen.. First, the bluetooth works, I'm able to use the home sharing option on iTunes to watch movies on my iPad via bluetooth., watching in a different room all the while streaming on my iPad first gen. Second, I have a sketch app in which ( being an artist) I can draw and even create storyboard thumbnails on the go with a compatible stylus. Third, it makes for a good alarm clock. Netflix and Amazon Prime still work. And I can send and receive mail on my mail app. My kindle app works as well as the iBooks app- which is great for books, comic books and magazines. My calendar is synced with my iPhone as well as my older and newer iPad as with Kindle. I guess to each their own. I'm keeping my 1st gen, mainly because its the first iPad created. I don't need all the fancy bells and whistles to use my iPad.. To me, its still functional. A little bulky, but I like that. if you're considering bringing new life to your old iPad, just check eBay or amazon. Or go to ifixit.com for a replacement battery and to get tips on replacing the battery or find a local repair shop.. DOn't trash your old iPad, it's still useful, and its a testament on the quality of Apple products. Anyway, great video.. I didn't mean to go on and on... :)

    Once this is set up, it's actually triggering the Keyboard Maestro macro twice (which you can see in the video around 5:15). What's the fix for this to make it only trigger once? I clicked "Try" in Keyboard Maestro and it only opens once, so it's *only* happening when using the iPad as a midi controller. In TouchOSC Editor, I created a push button, set it to "send on press" and configured it to send a note. In KM, I set up a macro to launch a URL in a new Safari tab. When I tap the push button in TouchOSC, it creates two tabs with the same URL.

    the bit that i don't grok is how to do the cable-tethered TouchOSC -> macOS connection with touchOSC - considering it requires a macOS IP to be set to the iPad. I don't know how to do that.

Games in ipad 4 runs like butter ! I have even played GTA 5 in my iPad 4 which was a very immersive and great experience ! 🥰🥰 Apple guys says that iPad 4 do not support 1080p Streaming ... well.. I turned those pickleheads down ! They don't even know what they built 12 years ago ! My discovery is gonna help all the iPad 2,3,4 owners to watch YT in 1080p and also to play same jaw dropping games in such a gorgeous Retina Display ! Honestly you will never use your PS-5 Again after playing games in its Retiina Display ! So , To all the guys in the World who complain about iPad 2,3,4 that these are no longer usable , Well .... " As Long As YOU are Worthless , You can't make anything Worthwhile " Right ? 💯💖
