To change the live TV channel with #Plex on #Roku takes 3 button pushes and 11 seconds. It occurred to me that it was actually faster back in the old black and white TV days to get up out of the chair, walk over to the TV, and manually change the channel. This is what 65 years of technology advances has brought us.
#Plex has sooo many bugs. I tried to build a smart playlist that lists movies not watched in 5 years. It doesn't just match the LAST watched date like it's supposed to, it matches ANY watched date. And there's no hope of it getting fixed because, like Apple, "Plex doesn't fix bugs!"
Wer von euch hat Erfahrung mit #Plex, #Jellyfin, #Kodi oder ähnlichen, self-hosted Systemen?
Ich spiele mit dem Gedanken, vermehrt wieder CDs und DVDs zu kaufen und zu digitalisieren, um damit die Abhängigkeit beim Abspielen von Musik und Filmen von Online-Diensten zu reduzieren.
Remote Access always shows "Not available outside your network" (well it initially shows "available" but soon switches to "not available") yet I can pretty reliably access music using Plex Amp over the internet.
I never expected to be willing to pay for a #music player and yet here we are.
#Symfonium is extremely beautiful, customizable and powerful.
I personally use it with #Jellyfin, although multiple other sources are supported (such as #Plex and #Subsonic)
I really don't mind it not being #FOSS as long as it respects my #privacy and #choices.
I think the news about #Disney essentially "reinventing" cable channels again into their streaming service, #DisneyPlus is pretty hilarious, though I'm not exactly surprised by that since I too honestly have been wanting such a feature on #Plex or #Jellyfin for really long time.
The idea is, you could still watch things on demand, unlike cable channels of old, but you could also just tune in to a channel and be "served" different things to watch by episode, or by movie, based on what is available. That'd be perfect when you just want to leave the TV on and have it play random stuffs all day.
I think I have mentioned this before, but in case I have not, I have a Plex #server that's free for anyone that's cool on here. I love my #Fediverse peeps, and want to support them however I can. #Plex Server is available to anyone that wants to access it. I have the bandwidth so why not. Fuck paying for streaming when I have it all for free. #RealTalk
Oh and I also take requests. Hit me up. I aspire to be the best server ever.
Much love.
I would say "no weirdos" like a typical post, but that's all y'all. So disregard that. Bring it in.
