I have much more powerful hardware than you but Jellyfin shouldn’t take more than a few seconds to load directories.

That has been my experience as well with accessing it via the web interface. I read up on the kodi addons a bit more. As I understand it the jellyfin addon integrates the jellyfin library and has to sync it. I think this causes the delay for me. I think I will give Jellycon another try, since it accesses the libraries themselves. I will take a look at my media management and refine the folder structure to make it work.

TBH I find Jellyfin works best with media that can be scraped or that I’m willing to create nfo files for.

Metadata is actually an aspect I have little trouble with. There are solutions for TV and movies and pinchflat actually provides metadata for the youtube videos in a format jellyfin can use.

Pinchflat - How do I get media into Plex/Jellyfin/Kodi?

Thanks for the links. Since my youtube use would mostly consists of single videos, this might work for me.

Thanks for the info.

I used the piped addon for youtube.

I have been using piped and invidious in the past as well, but with youtube cracking down more and more I have trouble finding usable instances at all. Hence my switch to freetube, which mostly works so far.

I’m currently trying out Pinchflat on my NAS .

Freetube sadly blocks me a lot and having the videos stored locally removes a lot of hassle.

I think that’s a great idea. However they should have to report WHY they are threatened. Make them disclose how many life they ruined or people died cause of their financial motivated decisions.

Alternative title: “Follow these 17 convoluted steps to stay in your abusive relationship longer.”

IIRC TrueNAS next release will include RaidZ1 with 2 disks

Not participating in a disinformation war reminds me of the hesitation to allow Ukraine to strike Russian territory with the supplied weapons. What incentive does thr other side have to stop?

Repeat after me “Fines need to be tied to global revenue”. It has to hurt, if you want companies to stop.

I think it’s hilarious that western leaders are worried about provoking Russia by providing Ukraine with weaponry that can be used in Russian territory.

Russia is at war with us. It’s not tanks, fighter jets and battleships. It’s cyber warfare, disinfomation campaigns, bribing of right wing politicians and poisonings. Just because nobody wants to call it a war, doesn’t make it go away.

He is a overall a good dude. I love what he did with his Sneakers:

As per Joe Pompliano, In 1998, when Shaq was on his way out of the Orlando arena, a mother was seen cursing at him. She posed the question, “Why don’t one of you s** o** a B****** make an affordable sneaker?” in front of him that made him wonder. He even offered her $200 which she violently refused.

The Lakers legend stopped to think about the enormous difference in the actual cost of basketball shoes and how much a typical family could spend. This led to his decision to leave Reebok and start his own line. A thought occurred in Shaq’s mind and he turned to the biggest retailer in the world, Walmart.

It’s been two decades, and Shaq has been selling most of his shoes at Walmart for $15-$30, compared to Nike’s $200 and more. This helped him sell over 120 million pairs of shoes.

More and more aspects of life require an app or at least a smartphone (QR codes). That already excludes older people from some aspects of daily life. Let’s do the same for kids!

Politicians should do their jobs and regulate tech and social media not ban useful devices.

HDR? Ah, you mean when videos keep flickering on Wayland!

I will switch when I need a new GPU.

How was there never a legal battle between KDE and Mortal Kombat?
