That’s exactly what VLC’s main purpose is. Have you even looked at it? It’s one of the most intuitive front-ends to transcoding out there. Desktop, mobile, and web.

I did. You’ve been told no such thing exists multiple times already. I’m just giving you options for what DOES exist. Fuck me, right?

They’re kind of all over the place now that they’ve figured tech out. Youtube, Twitch, TikTok, Instagram, Bluesky…etc.
Wherever you thought was not going to adopt their bullshit…wrong.
There needs to be a forced push against that online.

VLC does all of these things and does it locally for the client it’s installed on.

- Comment on Video transcoding web interface (self hosted) 1 day ago:
I’m not “trying to do” anything but explain the different workflows. Again, I’ve given you solutions, but there isn’t any self-hosted thing in the way you’re asking about. Just find a handbrake UI or an ffmpeg frontend if that’s all you’re looking for.
The question is more about the WHY you need to transcode anything when you already have many better options available to you?
- Comment on Video transcoding web interface (self hosted) 1 day ago:
Again, this is why you’re misunderstanding transcoding. Let me explain…
So you want a workflow where you upload files and then they get transcoded…to what exactly? Do you have specific sizes, formats, and codecs in mind? Are you planning on keeping multiple copies of transcoded files around for use in the future? Do you have a set list of devices it needs to work for? This is why you have a pipeline to take an input, and make multiple outputs that cover the outputs for different devices.
Now…if you’re just talking about some files you take on your phone, and then you want them to play on any device anywhere on-demand? This is what Jellyfin is good for.
There is no such thing as transcoding files that aren’t available on a server. It’s never going to be a thing, because the server needs those files to transcode them.
If you’re looking for a tool where you once in awhile may choose a certain video to transcode into something else, setup a pipeline service, and send the files to that service to transcode them, but you’ll be limited by needing to know where and what it needs to processed as input, and then the outputs.
- Comment on Video transcoding web interface (self hosted) 1 day ago:
It doesn’t quite work like that.
Are you just looking to view these files on different devices? Run Jellyfin and get live transcoding when the files are accessed.
If you’re sure you want a transcoding pipeline, check out Encore, or one of the handbrake webUI’s available.

This OP keeps posting AI and not realizing it’s a gambit to fully remove the human portion of skills from the workforce. That means the people controlling it will get richer. It’s the only purpose of AI, fool.
- Comment on How to send backups on multiple location? 2 days ago:
Tailscale is both a client and server. If you use only Tailscale, you have to pay for the service after so many devices are connected, which by all means support the company and do so and avoid using Headscale.
Headscale is an open source implementation of the Tailscale service, so it’s free to use with all the usual Tailscale clients published. It’s just skipping the need to pay for Tailscale as a service, and gives you greater control over how traffic routed. Completely optional.
- Comment on How to send backups on multiple location? 2 days ago:
Tailscale+Headscale or Zerotier, use whatever backup software you want for the local backups. Simple script to rsync backups to other sites and remove copies past a certain age.
Pretty simple, and no need to expose machines in any less than safe ways.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 days ago:
ICANN is decentralized and has a lot of in-built security that prevents one site from infiltrating or poisoning the rest of the overall system. That’s why no governments have tried to fuck with it. Not only would it not work, but it would potentially become an international incident. But ICANN is really only the keeper of TLDs anymore, they don’t run any other base infrastructure of the overarching internet. You don’t need domain names to make IP networks talk to each other (ie: darkweb).
The only thing Trump could try and do is push ISPs to conform to laws Congress passes that influences the way network traffic is run (filtering, blocking…etc), which is what China has done with their Great Firewall shit. This would not end well for a number of reasons, and just isn’t likely or feasible to happen in the US.
- Comment on NanoKVM - What's the status? 2 days ago:
The GitHub repo IS the source code. That’s what open source means. All of the code is right there, and the releases ARE the FOSS version. There is no closed-source code for this project.

You don’t need to use Apache if that’s confusing you. The project seems to include a full Caddyfile so that’s probably going to be easier for you.
