Wer von euch hat Erfahrung mit #Plex, #Jellyfin, #Kodi oder ähnlichen, self-hosted Systemen?
Ich spiele mit dem Gedanken, vermehrt wieder CDs und DVDs zu kaufen und zu digitalisieren, um damit die Abhängigkeit beim Abspielen von Musik und Filmen von Online-Diensten zu reduzieren.
@adrian
Ich habe seit einiger Zeit zuhause auf einem alten Thin Client #Jellyfin laufen, genau dafür. Ich hatte eh schon lange Filme und Serien digital gesammelt, aber immer auf externer Festplatte am TV. Das dann aber per Netflix-artigem UI verfügbar zu haben, ist ein Quantensprung. Jedes Familienmitglied mit eigenem Konto.
Dazu die eh digitale Plattensammlung per Finamp zugreifbar haben, wundervoll.
In Kombi mit VPN auch von unterwegs nutzbar, wenn es sein muss.
Will nicht mehr zurück 🤗
Meet our new #NAS. #Zimablade#SBC arrived. Wired it up to two 4TB hard drives. 5400rpm, for quietness and reliability. Installed Cockpit to pair them up in RAID1, and left rsync copying our media onto here overnight. Next up, a #Jellyfin media server will access media from here, and try #Syncthing as a Dropbox replacement...
@milan Also meine techischen Freunde haben alle wieder angefangen #Plex und #jellyfin instanzen zu bauen. Ich beschränke mich darauf DVD und BR second-hand zu kaufen, aber so ganz streng gesehen kann ich hier in der Schweiz saugen was ich will. Nicht unbedingt komplett legal, aber zumindest straffrei. Da sieht die Risikoabschätzung nochmals etwas anders aus.
I'm having two issues with #Jellyfin and I'm out of ideas, if anybody would be so kind as to offer things I could look into. 1) I can access it via web address ("mydomain.tld") but not via LAN IP. Why is that? 2) UFW is not starting enabled, despite running both "ufw enable" and "systemctl enable ufw." It always starts disabled and I have to physically connect a keyboard and monitor to the server to start it before I can do anything remotely. Anybody got any guesses on either issue?
I never expected to be willing to pay for a #music player and yet here we are.
#Symfonium is extremely beautiful, customizable and powerful.
I personally use it with #Jellyfin, although multiple other sources are supported (such as #Plex and #Subsonic)
I really don't mind it not being #FOSS as long as it respects my #privacy and #choices.
@sanimalp@zlendy I decided to finally get around to trying #Jellyfin as music server (usually use Navidrome) and #Symfonium as android client after seeing your comments.
It's been a few days and so far, very happy with how it works and syncs and plays.
The real test will be when I try to get the girlfriend to try it and how it works with her phone & car, which can be flaky in a lot of apps hehe.
@kohelet@daevien@zlendy I don't have any experience with navidrome, but I think your hypothesis is solid. With #jellyfin, I have a mix of +-320kb/s mp3, flac, and opus and it all plays seemlessly next to each other in #Symphonium, both in my phone and through android auto. It's not clear to me what side, symphonium or jellyfin, is doing the heavy lifting of making it play out my car speakers, but it just works so I don't have to care too much!
I think the news about #Disney essentially "reinventing" cable channels again into their streaming service, #DisneyPlus is pretty hilarious, though I'm not exactly surprised by that since I too honestly have been wanting such a feature on #Plex or #Jellyfin for really long time.
The idea is, you could still watch things on demand, unlike cable channels of old, but you could also just tune in to a channel and be "served" different things to watch by episode, or by movie, based on what is available. That'd be perfect when you just want to leave the TV on and have it play random stuffs all day.
I've been a really happy #Plex user for many years - have loved it, paid $100/year and invested a lot of time to get my #movies, #TVShows, and #music collections set up the way I want them.
Most recently, I've noticed that if I search for a movie that Plex have available in their shitty "watch this from our servers but with ads" tier, then that's the only search result I see for it, regardless of whether I have the same movie available to watch for free, without ads, from some other source.
Fuckers. It's over. I'm out. #JellyFin, here we come...
I've been experimenting with #Jellyfin today because I want a way to condense multiple versions on media (4K, 1080P) in a listing and it works well using the "Name Year - 4K" naming scheme for films but I cannot get it working with episodes of TV shows
Does anyone know if it is possible for Jellyfin to do this with TV show episodes or is it only possible movies?
I have a collection of movies and TV shows on my NAS being served by Jellyfin. I have a "Kids" #Jellyfin account with access to a subset of this media.
I want to transcode just that subset with specific settings and dump it to external storage. Ideally this would happen whenever I plugged that external storage into the NAS.
Is there an off the shelf solution to this or do I need to roll my own?
Me: so yeah, I’ve just been tweaking my Jellyfin media server setup. I put in a couple bigger hard disks for a total of 4 TB, configured the automatic backups, and set up a reverse proxy for remote access.
Them: oh, uh, cool…cool….so what kinda movies do you like to watch?
Started a jellyfin server on my raspberry pi last night to host the ebooks I want to keep up with. I love how easy it is just to have all this stuff running on such a tiny little single board computer. I now have Komga, Nextcloud, and Jellyfin running at the same time with no issues!
Last year, I tried out #jellyfin, and found it great, but it missed one (for me) must-have feature; HDR support in the LG app. This made me stick with #plex.
But as Plex has gotten more enshittified, yesterday I decided to give Jellyfin another try. Happy to say that I can now watch HDR videos on my LG TV.
For the rest, I'm quite impressed with it. The only thing missing is a "skip intro" feature.
We've been having a lot of bad performance of the web interface lately, and I could not figure it out, I shut down everything else on the server that was running it but nothing seemed to work.
I had reached the point of flailing desperation this morning when I noticed there were about 15 devices in the Devices section of the thing, so I deleted them all, and how bout that, it really seems to have made it pretty snappy.
I've shared a lot of exciting news about Jellyfin 10.9. Today is a bit different as this announcement affects all Jellyfin versions:
The @jellyfin#WebOS app is now available on all WebOS versions, for everyone! No more sideloading, just open up the LG Content Store and install #jellyfin!
@hetisniels@jellyfin Sideloading is still useful if you want your TV to launch Jellyfin when you turn it on if it was the app running when you turned it off. This requires you to turn on "Quick Start+" and install Jellyfin with Netflix's app id. (presumably it works with any app id that has a dedicated button on the remote) This also makes the Netflix button open Jellyfin instead, so you can turn on the TV at Jellyfin, even if it wasn't the last app.
Les presento mi próximo proyecto ñoño: Armar mi propio NAS
Voy a remplazar un Qnap de 2 discos por un sistema armado con 4 discos. Ya tengo el gabinete, fuente de poder, procesador, RAM, SSD (Reciclada de la que cambié en el laptop) y los discos duros los reutilizo del Qnap. Solo falta que me llegue la placa madre.
Voy a utilizar TrueNAS SCALE como sistema operativo.
