Five Men Convicted of Operating Massive, Illegal Streaming Service That Allegedly Had More Content Than Netflix, Hulu, Vudu and Prime Video Combined - Lemmy

I run a massive streaming service too, which is always way bigger than all the streamers combined. It’s just only distributed over my private home network. Jellyfin for the win!

Love my Jellyfin server, but I have 2 gripes over just using VLC.

  • Can’t use the scroll wheel for volume. It’s a pain aiming for the volume from across the room on the couch.

  • JF won’t boost volume past 100% like VLC.

Know of any fixes?

It’s weird to me that anyone would use a PC hooked up to a TV from a couch in 2024, but I’m sure it (otherwise) works for you.

it’s not weird at all, for one, you get to use a keyboard, for second, you get to use actual real hardware that isn’t spying on you and selling your data. You also get to use a real QWERTY based, or whatever other layout you want that isn’t ABCDE what a fucking abomination that layout is.

plus you get a whole desktop OS if you please, or if not you can cold roll something specifically for a TV. You just have so many more options, than you do when using a smart tv or generic streaming box.
