 Stoic Bear | * Although truth be told. You'd be better off getting a cheap used dell optiplex for around 100 bucks. Slapping together a dedicated jellyfin server. Hook it right into the tv via hdmi cable with a logitech k400 wireless keyboard mouse combo. Call it a day. The Pis are finicky. | 00:45:50 |
 Brule | Yeah the pi is a last resort since she's not tech savvy.
I've used jellyfin. It's a fork of emby. I tried it a couple of years ago and it worked great locally, but 500 miles away at her home my mom had issues with shows buffering all the time to the point you couldn't watch it. Emby has something they do, unbeknownst to me, that resolves that issue. So I switched back to emby and haven't looked back. I worked a lot with the jellyfin community to try to identify the root cause but failed. I'm not willing to change everything over to try it out just to see if it works, when I don't know what the root cause was and if it's been addressed. Emby works so why switch? (other than jellyfin being open source which is great).
Anyway, I could use the pi with jellyfin at her apartment (which is not her home, it has no internet) and serve it locally. Then she could use roku and it's remote to interface with it. | 00:51:49 |

https://www.ventoy.net/en/doc_secure.html After looking at the link, I have no issues booting into ventoy. It is the is being installed which does not support secure boot shimming. I misunderstood and thought that was what you meant. | 01:23:28 |

 romale23 | Anyone else have issues with Jellyfin on Roku when you exit out audio on other media stops working and the only way to fix it is so play something on Netflix? | 02:16:22 |

You spent years working on a problem, but do not have an issue in their repo to track development in fixing the problem? I believe I did open an issue and it was closed or went stagnant. Either way I've abandoned it since I really was only trying it out. I had already had a working product and that was emby. I provided my info to them and moved on once no one could provide an answer. | 02:38:18 |

(edited) Ah okay. Yeah, that's up to the distro themselves on how easy they make it for the users. Most generally don't even bother in my experience. | 07:55:54 |

After looking at the link, I have no issues booting into ventoy. It is the OS being installed which does not support secure boot shimming. I misunderstood and thought that was what you meant. I had a problem with Suse and Ventoy because I set boot to use legacy first. Suse kept trying to install in legacy mode. As soon as I switched, it worked. I was following Lenovo dual-boot setup guide for my P51. After that, it worked fine. | 15:51:54 |

| plex-dave | Just installed Element today to check out a few servers. Hey JB folks! | 23:27:42 |
| plex-dave | I am having some newbie growing pains issues with the switch over to pipewire from Jack/Pulse (Ubuntu 24.04) but I won't trouble you nice folks with that unless it becomes 100% necessary :) | 23:34:26 |
| plex-dave | Here's the post on ask ubuntu if anyone cares to take a look.

| Torched_ESC (Jeff) | Something like Carla or qjackctl may help? I've never used Jack before pipewire, but these apps help me draw how I need my inputs. From what I understand pipewire just let's you use Jack with out the setup. Lol but maybe your setup was a big part of your work flow. 😅 | 00:27:59 |
