Running vlc alone will us too much ram.
>>55099784
>>>/fglt/
Puppy Linux and try compiling?
>>55099784
Debian
Runs mpv fine on my iMac G3
>>55099784
slackware
OpenBSD
You should upgrade the RAM and use Tiger though
>>55099784
OS 9 n QickTime
>>55099784
OS9 for the comfy or some ultra lightweight distro for the loonix.
>>55099784
Any OS X before Leopard...

>running OSX on 128mb
I should learn to make webms just so i can show you how long it takes my g4 tower to boot up tiger with 128.

Just use a basic fucking install with networking and a media player of your choice. Theres also Panther and Jaguar. I guess Mac OS 9 won't support your fancy codecs?

I'm a totally different anon than OP is. I just sort of collect old mac shit.
>>55103533
Also, use sleep, don't power them off completely if you can't wait them to boot.

I have a iMac G3, eMac G4, two PowerMac G4, single and dual processor variants and a G5 which guts are in a box right now.
Don't start me on classic Macintoshes...

Nice. All i have is a dual 450 GBE tower and a 550mhz GBE TiBook.
I have one of these displays (pic related), but its scratched to shit (screen and case unfortunately).
I kind of want a G4 iMac but they are expensive as fuck for how old they are and i want one of the big screen ones.

>they are expensive as fuck for how old they are
Welcome to the world of collecting Apple hardware
>>55103729
I know. You can get plastic macbooks that will run sierra for cheaper than some older models. Especially that fucking sexy clamshell iBook.

>Welcome to the world of eating shit from your hands
Fixed.

OpenELEC (kodi built in) + install exodus.
>>55099784
Step 1.
Sell them to some macmoron who will pay you 2016 prices for 2 decade old hardware.
Step 2.
Build beastly computer with the cash.

full house

OS X Tiger with Coreplayer is your best bet if you want barely acceptable h.264 playback. Linux isn't great since you won't get proper GPU support, since nvidia only released full linux drivers for x86.
>>55103856
cool story bro
>>55099784
maybe dig out an old version of crunchbang, I think it only used like 100 mb, though I may be wrong
