I was surprised to find a Jellyfin client for Samsung Tizen tv’s at all (despite it being a major brand) - I hadn’t considered this may be a client issue. I’ll take a look, thanks!

I’ve seen that error, so I re-encoded without subs. Now it says it’s transcoding because the device doesn’t support the codec, which I know isn’t correct.
Thanks!
It’s transcoding because Jellyfin decided it needs to transcode for some reason, frustratingly. I’ve converted to formats/codecs I know the TV supports, and yet Jellyfin still transcodes, with a message about the TV not supporting the codec (yet if I play the file on the TV from a thumb drive, it works fine with the crappy built-in media player). I’m using the Jellyfin client on the TV because it’s easy to install without a Samsung account, and I don’t think I can get Kodi on it (besides my experience with Kodi is not great, it’s sluggish on real hardware, I can only imagine how bad it would be on an underpowered garbage TV and I don’t know if a client exists).
From a bigger picture perspective, I think Jellyfin as a client will be better for my family. It’s a simpler interface with less to get them in trouble.
I’ll need transcoding for other/non-local devices anyway, so I still have to address the issue (annoying iPad for example).
If you have any advice about troubleshooting why it’s transcoding, I’m all ears. This is the first I’ve gotten Jellyfin to work after multiple attempts over the years, across multiple servers and clients, so my experience with it is limited. I’m just glad it works at all - it’s the first I’ve gotten to work other than Plex.
Thanks - at least now I know it shouldn’t be transcoding.
Wish I could upvote you more.
Any time I take out a slotted screw, I throw the fucker away and replace with (preferably) torx, but I’ll settle for Phillips.
And given the lack of strength in these screws, cam-out is likely a positive (which is what the Phillips what’s designed to do).
How much video is really needed for transcoding?
I ask because I need to get a video card for transcoding to a 65" 4k TV. I’m converting all my DVDs to MKV and using Jellyfin as my server and client. It transcodes lighter stuff fine (cartoons, old TV shows), but better movies get some artifacts that don’t occur if I have the TV play the same file from a thumb drive.
I’ve read Jellyfin’s recommendation, but it’s really just “use at least this video chipset”, not a particular card, so I’m trying to determine what card I should get.
Oh god, P4? Yea, those were just 100 watt light bulbs.
That these elements are a greater cause of societal problems today than people living longer.
If anything, living longer will give people better perspective.
Source: At 30 I had a much more nuanced perspective of just about anything than I did at 20. And I bet most people would say the same. Partly just from experience, but also because I was able to read a lot more about any subject, such as things like Studs Terkel’s “Hard Times”, or understand the complexities of WWII better, and how today is very much a result of it.
And I’ve read even more since then. By now I’ve spent more time reading than I had the hours to read, let alone the background, at age 20.
Tasker, Automate,Macrodroid.
Just have them watch for volume changes and reset alarm volume then.
I dunno, I’d say people do things like coke, cheat, etc, because of beliefs.
They have a belief that “it doesn’t matter”.
But yea, our beliefs, our paradigms, are what help us be better people to each other.
Hell, science is founded on the belief that the universe is rational, that “God does not play dice with the universe”.
Studying quantum mechanics makes me wonder otherwise. Nothing about it is rational. Not to say I don’t operate on a day-to-day basis that the underlying framework makes sense, what other choice do we have?
You brought religion into this, and your sophist insults.
Sounds like someone has a belief and is upset it’s being exposed.
Defensive? Now who’s stooping to insults because someone doesn’t believe in your belief?
Well, they are.
They define one’s view of the world, your paradigm.
Let’s be clear, the fine is for using cellular data, which is the harm caused.
All that power was a huge driver for me - my old desktop that I used as a server was pulling 120w constantly.
Now between the SFF and NAS it’s about 35w. That’s a significant difference, plus the office doesn’t get as hot.
And I’d love to run ZFS again, kind of hard to beat it for redundancy and failure resistance. Maybe the next NAS I build will be Proxmox again.
This is an excellent explanation. I’ve always wondered how it all worked, now I see the map data is separate from dynamic data.
Wish these mapping apps would explain that, so people would understand the apps are providing the updated/dynamic data with the map data coming from OSM.
My understanding is it’s also possible as a somewhat random event, though more likely with older people, or with conditions (e.g. Underlying arrythmias, arterial disease, etc).
Not seeing it in FDroid, and I have about 30 repositories setup.
Nevermind, resolved.
Not for a kid it isn’t.
And that’s the point you keep sweeping away.
Lol, this after punishing moviegoers by putting ads at the start time.
Fuck off AMC. You’re part of why I stopped going to movies. Now I go twice a year, and it’s to Alamo, where I can have a burger and a beer while I watch a movie.
Plus few movies are worth seeing in the big screen anymore.
