You made my wife cry

EDIT IRL

Oh yeah I am on board with jellyfin and emby all the way 100%

Kodi/LibreELEC is just the full suite, especially with home assistant. Use the addon and enjoy one interface for every single piece of media, cutting out each apps “eye candy” and clutter, and enjoy your tunes with visualizers!

Add-ons for everything

Moonlight for game streaming, tied into my whole home remote control and home assistant for ease of use for everyone in the family.

It’s all pretty slick.

Once you get it setup just make a backup and roll that out on the other machines needed.

EASY KILLER

I DON’T SEE ANY JELLYFIN DISTROS

“JUST ENOUGH OS FOR JELLYFIN?” no

Though jellyfin/emby as the back end works really well

Kodi/LibreELEC is awesome for all the different stuff you can add in

EDIT for typos

Alright you and Joe McMillan had a great weekend we get it

I know this is coming up on my radar, but I am not quite sure where to start. Might you have any resources on hand to point me in the right direction?

Especially once I have everything dialed in the way I want, I’d love to be able to pull from my own repo to get stuff running again/spin up a new instance

Anyone have opinions about hiding this under a bed or other discreet location? (Closet, crawlspace, etc)

Maybe with hardwood floors or a closet that isn’t full of winter coats or something, but it makes me nervous. But I would like to kinda spread out the homelab a little

Good morning! (7 hours later)

I’ve messed around with this a time or two but didn’t realize how deep the rabbit hole went! I’m gonna look into this

I like this way of thinking! Excited to see what smarter people than myself come up with

Also been happy with emby, but am also curious about jellyfin

I’m no expert; only been dipping my toes in the selfhosted water for a few years.

But my thought process would be all the main stuff on your main server and the redundant instances on a little backup

Flicking your cheek just right to make the water drop noise

Ol pap was like this also, mainly with electrical or automotive issues. He always said instead of him possibly doing a bad job and wasting his whole Saturday, he’d rather just pay a pro to do it right and in a timely manner, and go do some work on the weekend.

Project M on Kodi/LibreELEC! Fucking amazing!

Yo just turn off that TVs version of HDMI control. (CEC, magic remote, etc) To avoid the scanning bullsh. (Sounds like Samsung)

Outside of that I kinda miss old copper phone lines to a certain extent. Analog stuff in general

Everything being digital removes any possibility of a signal being able to still be discerned even if it’s not absolutely perfect.

Old tech would be subject to static of course, but you could possibly still make out the TV channel or radio station, even if it’s not perfect.

These days, you hear or see a little tiling for a second and the media is gone until a good enough signal comes back.

I was messing around with another jellyfin/emby instance specifically for my tunes and podcasts/audiobooks.

I think the app from fdroid was fintunes or finamp or something like that. Worked okay!

I feel you big time!

The taste, the smell, the hassle,

It’s a huge deal!

I wouldn’t consider that trivial though

I’d be you sometimes if I wasn’t so busy being me. Sometimes it might be cool to be you and not me. Even something as benign as the way your mouth feels when closed,

do your teeth line up better than mine? Or have you developed a weird way for your jaw to rest due to clipping teeth if you’re not careful.

Anyways I think it’s my turn to report in on the huddle so bye

Been browsing that site for a few weeks waiting for the perfect time to strike
