I’ll have to check it out. I would love to replace my fire stick. I am trying to get jellyfin setup.

Wait, hardware steam link? Please tell me more. Mine is collecting dust. Can I throw Kodi on it?

Why is a 5 year old device still the best bet? It’s frustrating that nothing better exists on the market.

It’s an open source project. It’s always going to be out there. I am gonna go fork the repo just for the hell of it right now.

I am not an expert but I think compatibility is the only significant downside. If your device supports it, you h265 will give you better quality at the same file size.

One thing I will also suggest is looking into https://home.tdarr.io/. It’s software that will re-encode your media to h265, saving you a lot of space. I just set it up on my synology NAS because I am at 80% storage and don’t feel like buying another drive yet.

Make Netflix more convenient than my ARR setup and I’ll happily come back.

It’s a great app. Works really well with android auto, which is how I consume most of my audiobooks.

Based on that let me recommend you “Brooklyn 99”, “The Good Place” and “Archer”.

I created one just for the hell of it. Call me Spartacus.

BRB, let me go create another fork.

Even though I consider myself technically savvy and I could have saved money with a DIY solution, I went with synology and I couldn’t be happier. It took me just one day to get it up and running with everything I needed. Including shucking the drives.

This blog post taught me how to download directly to my NAS using curl. https://michelenasti.com/from-google-photos-to-synology-photos/

And don’t forget to change the default file export size. The default is 2gb, which for me resulted in over 300 files to download and there’s no easy to way to automate it. 50gb is max which was much better for me

I have komga running in a docker container and the tachiyomi app on my tablet for comics.

How does this setup compare to arr?

That seems to be the general thought around here.

Interesting. Why would you want multiple version of a movie though?

I will give a shot.

I had to google IRC piracy because I couldn’t believe this was still a thing in 2023. Seems super easy to use as well. And have been hearing about ZLib. Maybe I don’t need book automation after all.
