Comment on “I am still alive”: Users say T-Mobile must pay for killing “lifetime” price lock
Illecors@lemmy.cafe 4 weeks agoI can only vouch for my setup; many variations are available.
- Nextcloud - files, photo autoupload, contacts, calendar
- Postfix and dovecot (and a bunch of friends) - email
- Pixelfed - private instagram. Can federate, but I’ve never enabled that.
- Opnsense - firewall, vpn, adblocking via unbound. Wireguard is my choice, but any would do. I get all my lan stuff available everywhere.
- Jellyfin - media library. It’s kinda sucky, though, thinking of going back to plex, unfortunately.
- Lemmy - well. You know what it is :)
- Graphene on a pixel
Hit me up if you ever decide to go self hosting route and need a hand with a thing or two!

Curious about your issues with jellyfin? Ive been using it basically issue free for a few months

Takes half a minute to start playing, which gets annoying real quick when a toddler gets involved with all the short videos.
Random buffering every 10-15 minutes on most 1080p as well as 4k videos.
Random buffering every couple of minutes on certain videos - the whole of
the office usis the last one I remember.Crappy multi audio track support - some of them play, but most don’t. What was most infuriating at first was jellyfin happily selecting the track I want in UI and then just playing the default one anyway.
The UI is kinda crap - I understand moving on a tv screen is more difficult, but god damn - what jellyfin is doing with arrow navigation is plain masochistic.
When it works - it’s beautiful. But it rarely does so for long enough.
I really want to like it, but it’s doing its best to push me away.
And before you suggest anything - I’ve already tried everything there is to try that’s available on the open internet. Happy to hear something that’s never been posted anywhere, though!

I haven’t really had any of these issues. Those would certainly be enough to push me away. I know I was having somewhat similar issues with consuming the content before enabling hardware acceleration. I haven’t tried changing audio tracks so idk there. I’m sorry to hear you’ve been having a bad time

Did you configure video encoding?
