Episode 9 of #TheAmazingDigitalCircus is the first one (I think) I'm fiddling with the volume with while watching. Was the cinema version surround sound, and they downmixed for Youtube? If that is the case, I'd reaaaally wish they'd kept the surround audio track, so my #Kodi downmix setting would apply.

I hate condescending OS. Today: #LibreELEC. I'm playing with #Kodi once again and ssh'ed into the box since it behaves oddly (dropping Wifi5 connections. lags extremely, occasionally reboots). All my usual tools for diagnostics are missing, but there is apt-get. However, apt-get is just a script telling me there is no apt-get and that I should install software via Kodi. Sorry but fuck you sincerely, what is your thought process with shit like that? Just don't ship apt-get if you don't have it! 🖕

@KlavsKlavsen @mastodonmigration @aram Okay, that's due to said platforms using DRM.

  • Personally I'd recommend to get some box with Kodi (nee xbmc) on.

@mastodonmigration @aram it is hard due to value-removing rentseekers (MPEG LA), and the Contentmafia (DRM!) being assholes.

You'd be easier-off ripping all the content you want with an HDMI-Recorder and getting like a cheap Stick-PC, put KODI (nee xbmc) on it and just have a NAS (or USB-HDD) connected to it.

SBC / mini-PC with Kodi & *arr stack?

Da Fox jetzt wohl Roku übernimmt, stell sich für mich die Frage, wohin ich wechseln soll.

Habe seit 2024 eine Streambar (Soundbar-Format) von Roku und darauf lassen sich verschiedene Streaming-Apps installieren.

Im Gegensatz zu Kodi (was ich vorher verwendet habe) lassen sich so Jellyfin + die drei Streamingdienste der Wahl angenehm auf einem Gerät betreiben ohne in zweifelhafte Gitrepos abzutauchen oder nach zwei Wochen herausfinden zu müssen, warum man auf Netflix nur noch 720p Content bekommt.

Ein Hoch auf die anstehende Enshittification von Roku -.-

@OpWereld Dat is waarom ik mijn muziek, films en series bewaar op een harde schijf en een open source media player gebruik.

Another day too cold and cloudy for taking pictures, so I've been inside and unpacking the Raspberry Pi 5 from storage! I'm going to give it another try as a Kodi box and see if that's more stable than the Google TV for watching movies, as Kodi on that does crash occasionally. Hopefully I'll have better luck than I did last time! 😅

@HunterZ Not sure about the Android transcoding but for me the best option is #Jellyfin as a backend and then a variety of playback frontends. For example, I use #Kodi (via Coreelec) on one TV, with the Kodi addon for Jellyfin for syncing. I have transcoding completely disabled on Jellyfin as the server running it doesn't have a GPU (nor is there space for one, with all PCIe slots taken by SAS HBAs).

so the server where my #jellyfin resides crashed, and I'm not home for a while so I can't restart it. I do have ssh access to a different server and was thinking of setting up some lightweight alternative to watch stuff until I get back to my jellyfin. Is #kodi the best candidate?
