1. History is not there for you to like or dislike.
2. History is there for you to learn from it.
3. History offends you? Even better. Then you are less likely to repeat it.

Please read this out loud, then read it again. Then teach it to your children and grandchildren.

For the first time since getting this phone 2 years ago, I finally set a wallpaper that wasn't one of the default options. (I was inspired by the pride wallpaper on my new work iPhone, but my personal Android didn't have one)

It's rainbow colored space dust, and I really like it. https://pin.it/21maChl

So this actually worked. Plex did end up transcoding to H.264/AAC, but the Synology DS220j had enough power in it to run the conversion without any hiccups.

I've run into issues with this in the past, but that was with VP9 or H.265 videos in 1080p. This file was 480p, so I'm guessing the smaller resolution really helped.

I copied a movie to the NAS so we can stream it on the TV later, but I just remembered it's encoded with VP8 video. I think the TV only supports H.264 streaming, and the NAS definitely doesn't have enough power to convert in real time. So we'll see how this goes.
