Encoding to AV1 is good to cooking CPUs.

I think you can do some settings related to transcoding per user account. Maybe that will help.

I’m running jellyfin docker container on my Synology. Works great, but I don’t transcode. … Which is another rabbit hole.

Ok, just don’t go too far until you are sure the config and database won’t be wiped when you update the image.

Hopefully you setup your configuration folders as an external mount outside the container. 👍

And I just updated my server to the .3 release 😅

I’m hosting on a Synology, but not transcoding.

It’s likely more affordable to host a second jellyfin server on a desktop that is used for transcoding vs getting a NAS with the hardware.

As also mentioned you may not need to transcode unless you want to down mix to reduce bandwidth when not home. For those cases I would recommend you use handbrake and have multiple versions of the content at different resolutions/codecs as needed. Yeah it’s work.

The majority of issue I have when running locally is audio codec compatibility. So I use ffmpeg to reencode and remux my mkvs with the new audio stream. (Typically eAC3)

TV is working as expected today and yesterday. Also I updated to .2 release this morning. Maybe my TV was updating the other days and killing the app, not sure.

If things weren’t broken then how would you know they changed anything? 🧐

It’s ok, if I see it again tonight I’ll pull the logs and check for anything obvious.

You must have a big house 😅

I noticed that my Google TV client is always logged out asking me to select user. Is this a new feature?

I’m actually pretty good at finding memory issues in .net programs, maybe I’ll debug this a little on my setup if I get a moment. Dotnet trace was essential for this as it was a Linux arm device

Cool I updated anyway because I live dangerously

You just need your mom to date someone that works at a secret government base, “borrow” their badge, swap the uranium with dish soap, and good to go.

Yep thanks

Idk, possibly I forget where I installed it. FDroid doesn’t have the new version yet. I’ll try there soon I guess.

Sweet. Need to see about running this as an app on my phone for the next port :)

Nice. I miss my palm pre:(

I didn’t see anything in the logs aside from starting the video. Is there something more I should see?

I noticed the app on my client was limited to 100MB via the settings, but I thought that just determines when to enable transcoding. I changed it to Auto. I need to test tomorrow.

Update: this setting seems to just limit what can be loaded.
