Working on setting up my own #ErsatzTV IP streams so we can have some auto-generated "channels" of content like Saturday morning cartoons, westerns, etc. that don't require us to manually pick something to watch. Good to have something playing in the background. Settling in on a working systemd service file for it to help lock it down but still keep it functional. Sourcing the media libraries from the #Jellyfin service.

Also put the ErsatzTV web interface behind an Apache reverse proxy with some basic HTTP auth, and set up a DNS rewrite to make sure that site is what gets loaded. It's only accessible via my LAN, but there's no authentication options for the ErsatzTV web interface itself, that I can find, so I figure this stops visitors, rogue apps or maybe even malware from snooping around where they don't belong. After getting this set up, I deleted the firewall rule that opened port 8409 just to be safe.
