Update: YouTube has just reinstated the video, after what I presume is a human review process. I wish it didn't take making noise on socials to get past the 'AI deny' process :(

Go forth, and self-host all the things! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3hFas54xFtg

I replaced my Apple TV—with a Raspberry Pi

@geerlingguy This whole saga reminded me I needed to rebuild my RPi5 LibreElec box so I can get my ripped media to play correctly (because AppleTV can't).

@bedast @geerlingguy tried infuse on the appletv?

Might have to pay for it depending on which features you need

@Dragon @geerlingguy AppleTV doesn't support TrueHD with Atmos nor audio passthrough so the best Infuse can do with ripped blurays is extract the TrueHD PCM audio and play it without the Atmos metadata. Infuse is good if you don't care about this.

LibreElec doesn't support Dolby Vision, but it does support HDR10. With audio passthrough, you get a pretty good audiovisual experience from bluray rips.
