I think they need to invent a new way of playing games on a subscription, like renting a game for 3 months for x dollars. I bet many players subscribe for one month and play the heck out of a new release then stop paying.

Whether your video is 1080p isn’t the concern, since it’s the video codec that determines if your client device can play the file directly. If not, it may require Jellyfin to transcode it using software capability only (as you did not enable hardware acceleration).

For hardware acceleration, you should read the official documentation. Say, some Intel CPU supports Intel Quick Sync so you don’t necessarily need a GPU.

The issue, in my opinion, is company size. Let’s not just look at the gaming industry, but in every industry, when your company gets bigger, the decision-making process takes longer and the final result may often deviate from the initial idea, mostly because the decision is no longer made by the operational people. Say, HR may want to cut or remove certain things for liability concerns, PR the same for protecting company image, accounting for resources concern, etc. In an indie studio, it’s the same few people who do everything and you may not know that you are supposed to do something or you have less mouths to feed, leading to bold decisions and masterpieces are made when you don’t play safe.

Ask them to use the Jellyfin web, and you expose it to the public via Netbird / Pangolin locked behind SSO

Clickers. I don’t get it.

I couldn’t agree more about the lack of documentation for Technitium. Thank God it has an interface instead of command line only. Don’t know anything DoT or whatever. Guess I’m not using Technitium to it’s full potential. That said, I appreciate it being a total package of DNS server and adblocker.

I’m just barely okay at self hosting applications, so using Unbound together with Pi-hole poses a great challenge. Technitum DNS is a whole package and the GUI is user-friendly to me. But, after using Netbird on VPS (for the reverse proxy mostly), because of a different sub-domain being used, I think I don’t need Technitium anymore though it continues to work so I have no reason to change.

Wonder if they will release the code as a final middle finger.

I don’t think Pangolin can do that. I recently migrated to Netbird but I used to do this:

Set up a reverse proxy in your local homelab, say Nginx Proxy Manager, for internal-use only domains. Then also a DNS server, say Technitium or Pi-hole, to resolve those domains. When connected to Pangolin, you open the whole subnet as a private resource.

Thanks for the proof of concept. I suppose it’s essentially a self-hosted version of newreleases.io?

Just to update that the feature is now available on the dashboard in 0.67.1. I wonder why 0.67 said it’s out.

I would looooove to play some AI-transformed Balenciaga games lol

Any reason not using Streamio?

Similar to most responses, I backup whatever I created myself, not shared by someone or downloaded from somewhere. I care about pictures that I took, documents, financial records, etc, which don’t take up much space at all.

Not to blame, but Geoff single-handedly killed this game by placing the teaser trailer under the spotlight. A very unfortunate incident. Of course, the game does seem too bland in this age.

Technically, you don’t really need to touch those Arr applications once you set them up. As others have mentioned, Seerr (merged from Jellyseerr and Overseerr) is probably the only thing you use on daily basis.

You mentioned an app for remote streaming, I assume you know about Jellyfin already. If not, it’s like Netflix but you watch your own videos.

Don’t have the same problems as yours. My only issue with TA is that it’s very picky about the ES and Redis version, so currently I pin them to a specific build. I do worry that one day TA will be updated so much that it won’t support older builds of ES and Redis and my whole thing may break.

But when it works, it works perfectly, giving Jellyfin all the metadata to display them neatly (with the TA plugin of course).

Feels just like the tech used in the show Person of Interest. Essentially, to avoid the detection of a supercomputer, the protagonists communicate via VHF mesh network.

Don’t go for Raid 5.

My major pet peeves with games is that features available in a game are often absent in a sequel, or revamped for no reason. Unless a game receives critical reception these days, I often buy games that have been released a year ago to increase the chance they get fixed with patches.

Example: the notorious Civilization series.
