  • How many containers are you all running?

    Jump

  • From a quick glance I can imagine many of those services don't need much maintenance if any. E.g. RickRoll likely never needs any maintenance beyond the initial setup.

  • How many containers are you all running?

    Jump

  • I'm pretty sure I was at the same point years ago. The good thing is, next time you look into containers it'll likely be really easy and you'll wonder where you got stuck a year or two ago.

    At least that's what has happened to me more times than I can remember.

  • Plex’s crackdown on free remote streaming access starts this week - Ars Technica

    Jump

  • Interesting, maybe they check whether it's a domain/remote IP on the client side to prevent usage of a reverse proxy.

  • didn’t have to

    Now you do have to, unless you pay for Plex and its convenience.

  • You need to properly name your media with a proper scheme (including tmdbid/imdbid).

  • Plex’s crackdown on free remote streaming access starts this week - Ars Technica

    Jump

  • Yes, after I set up the server properly (reverse proxy). With this change the same setup on the server side is necessary for remote streaming with free Plex.

    My mum puts in the domain, username and password and starts streaming.

  • I don't think Jellyfins focus is currently to support irregular naming schemes. Naming media correctly with a proper scheme is the way to go.

    Just so you know I wouldn't hold my breath.

    Jump

  • Yes. There's AudioBookShelf for audio books.

  • Roku is also a thing in Europe.

    Though I also gave up trying to set up Tailscale for people and just exposed Jellyfin (behind a reverse proxy).

  • "Good luck setting up remote streaming with free Plex."

    Yes, Jellyfin does not forward ports for you. Same as free Plex. With this change both are the same difficulty to set up for free, the only difference is with Plex there's a shortcut: Buy Plex.

    Jump

  • Jellyfin does not host anything. With this change free Plex users behind a reverse proxy (or VPN) and Jellyfin users behind a reverse proxy (or VPN) have exactly the same features.

    The only difference is that Plex no longer provides expensive services for free, while Jellyfin never provided them.

  • RIP Windows: Linux GPU Gaming Benchmarks on Bazzite

    Jump

  • They explained quite well why those comparisons aren't valid either way. They are freezing their setup from updates so performance claims are mostly invalidated almost immediately etc.

    They going to lengths trying to remove variables and compare apple to apple, which is not possible when comparing different platforms.

  • Valve's new Steam Machine and Steam Frame and implications for Linux

    Jump

  • You're already able to. I wonder whether they're using Waydroid.

  • Simplest Path to Jellyfin Access for the Developmentally Disabled

    Jump

  • Roku is really simple and locked down. There's ads on one side but nothing else. My 80yo grandma uses it.

    Otherwise Projectivy is an Android TV launcher that can be configured to be really stripped down. It takes a bit of time but if you do it right it'd show less options than even Roku (it'd show only the apps you select, no launcher settings etc).

    As a box I've heard good things about Onn (Walmart) if your in the US. If not, Homatics is great but pricey. Kick Pi KP1 is more affordable (but still way more expensive than Onn).

  • Jellyfin: why is the line two different colors?

    Jump

  • This. The blue line is the watched progress and the orange line is the transcoding progress.

  • Jellyfin 10.11.0 RC9

    Jump

  • Unless the media also uses HDR in which case the server will still be required to transcode.

  • Best Synology Replacement?

    Jump

  • Ugreen NAS support other OS. You could put TrueNAS or Proxmox on there, so no, there's no security concerns (beyond all computer hardware being partly manufactured there in some way).

  • How to manage docker compose apps?

    Jump

  • It won't save you from doing a bit of work but you could use podman. There's systemd integration so you can still start/stop/enable your services with systemctl while using docker/container images. You won't be able to use docker-compose directly, but it's usually not that hard to replicate the logic with systemd (Immich was a PITA at first (because they had so many microservices split into multiple images, but it improved considerably over the first two years).

    I do this with NixOS quite a bit, and I've yet to use docker compose (although the syntax is different, it's still the same process).

  • How can I optimize my jellyfin, specifically transcoding and the CPU usage involved? I'm running it off a mini pc so resources are everything

    Jump

  • Given OP mentioned torrent and watching media in the same sentence I assume they didn't rip their own media, and pirated it instead.

    If my assumption is wrong, I apologize.

    Whether they own a physical edition of that media I don't know. In my opinion owning a physical medium of the media is a big part in the morality discussion of piracy.

    But in my juriscition I'm legally not allowed to break the encryption used for CD/DVD/Blu-ray, so I'm technically pirating even if I rip my own discs. There's obviously no way for copyright owners to find out if their discs were ripped for a private copy, but that's also (nearly) the case for Usenet/Torrent with proper precautions.

    Anyway, if you read until this point, thank you!
