Right. Yeah I didn’t engage my brain on the & initially as i thought it was just a typo. But that should work, seems others on the internet think the same.

I like ‘exec startx’, but really if someone has physical access, unless you are doing a lot of other security, you can’t be safe.

If you switch to the VT with Ctrl-Alt-F1, and hit ctrl-z the process is suspended, but does not complete so it never gets to the exit.

At least that is my suspicion. I’m going to try it when I’m in front of a machine.

Joke’s on you. Ctrl-Alt-F1 Ctrl-z.

Finding a good client is hard. Folks recommend the Nvidia Shield Pro. Finding something that plays all the formats and can pass audio through hdmi to a AV receiver. Umcompressed HD audio, HDR/10/DolbyVision. Etc.

If I can just pop a debian machine down, that is great, but a hardware guide would be nice to see.

Where?

Looks like there is an LDAP auth plugin: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-plugin-ldapauth

If you ran such a beast.

Jellyfin has a (plugin) opds server for ebooks that use the same accounts as the rest of jellyfin. I use calibre to deal with organization/metadata.

If you have a bunch of plex users, switching to jellyfin might be a bridge too far.
