The depressing point is:
I need a VPN app like #NetGuard to block apps which violating my privacy.
I need Kodi and #OpenSource Software to have a seamless integration of two Services in one app.
But one thing is cool. The Rest API of Kodi will allow to steer the TV.
I currently use the #libreelec on a raspi as an Alarmclock in the morning #nodered start online radio.
If everything works there is a plan for may use it with #Moonlight as gamestation.
In the near future I will also create a Videophone for my grandma with #Threemalibre from #Fdroid.
Gestern mal angefangen, vom #AppleTV zu #LibreELEC zu wechseln. Was mir im Vergleich direkt auffällt: Die UI-Sounds sind sehr verzögert, die Partnerin sagt, dass YouTube grottig aussieht und die Anmeldung bei YouTube wirft #nen Fehler.
Die Tonverzögerung mag durch den PhilipsTV in Kombi mit eARC kommen. Da verstehe ich noch nicht, wo welche Einstellungen sinnvoll wären. Vielleicht hat Jemand Tipps/Erfahrungen? Das würde ich erstmal priorisieren, bevor der Rest angegangen wird.
Trying out LibreELEC on my very old netbook. Can't play some movies without the video lagging on my Raspberry Pi 3B+. Maybe the additional 200MHz on the processor and the whopping 400 MHz graphics processor will fix it.
Es fehlen eine "unethische" Benutzeroberfläche, selbst startende Videos, Produktplatzierungen, Tracking, ...
Dafür:
"Langweilige" Menüführung über verschachtelte Ordnerstrukturen.
That explains why new instances that are running on new IPs are still working (for now).
Of course there are countless ways to mitigate this (using a VPN on my server and rotating IP addresses every couple of hours could be one), but I really don't want to do this anymore.
I'm really done playing this cat and dog game with motherfucking Google. I've spent years bypassing whichever restrictions they come up with against youtube-dl, Piped and Invidious. I just want to watch my videos in peace now.
Now they've reached the point of straight away banning IP addresses. There's nothing technically challenging to bypass here anymore, no new mechanism to break, nothing that a geek like me would enjoy investigating and breaking. There's just a frustrated company struggling to remain profitable and relevant that has made it a mission to go after that 2% of users that use alternative clients, and they're just banning IP addresses like frustrated IRC admins in the 1990s.
Now I just wish those parasites to die out while I move on with my life. I hope content creators will do so too, as their precious content is held hostage of a corporation that doesn't give a fuck about them, pays them peanuts (if it pays them at all), and those payouts will also decrease as the product becomes less profitable, and it'll not be afraid of limiting the distribution of their content if doing so has a chance of improving their own profit line.
Come on creators, if I've gone through so much trouble to bypass YouTube's barriers was just to view your content. I'd be much happier to support you folks on any other platform.
@blacklight That's awful. I'm just a casual #LibreElec user and had to fight a lot in the past to simply get YouTube video playback running. They make it intentionally hard for people relying on alternative players to get access. Will these new obstacles impact casual @Kodi users in any way?

Savez-vous s’il est possible de mettre en veille un Raspberry Pi ?
Mon vieux Media Center est en train de rendre l’âme et je comptais le remplacer par un RPi4 que j’ai qui traîne dans un coin, mais malheureusement, je n’arrive pas à le mettre en veille. Seulement l’éteindre.
