Anyone used Jellyfin?

Spinning up a VM now to transfer a few things onto and see how it goes.

My god how big is your NAS/Server?

Bigger than 90TB!!

Ment more in physical size and what drives 🤪

If you are ripping on Windows, I recommend DVDFAB. I haven't run into anything it won't Rip. It's pricey, but worth it, IMO.

Yeah used that several times back in the early days.

I used to rip BluRays with MakeMKV, DVDs went into shredder, it’s such a low quality compared to 1080p. Then I learned about Couchpotato, later Sonarr and Radarr, so I stopped ripping. My workflow with Plex is 100% automated, I don’t even have to add shows and/or movies I want to watch. Above applications allow you subscribe to various lists, top 250 IMDB, or highest grossing this week, etc. then search for it, send it to download client, when done downloading rename it, copy/move/hardlink to Plex library location, and finally notifying Plex so it scans it.

Hmm that sound interesting but is that above board if you haven't "purchased" the content?

I have lifetime Plexpass, if you want to buy it, wait until Black Friday or Christmas’s, they usually have sales then, 50% off.

Good tip will have to remember that one

I don’t share my libraries with anyone, just me and my wife. Storage wise it’s about 90TB right now, growing daily. 2700+ movies, 12000+ tv show episodes, 37000+ music tracks. Believe it or not, that’s rather small library.

My god how big is your NAS/Server?

Some more xcom

For those ripping content. What you using and what compression etc are you using? Trying to see how to get best results with low storage.

I'm only on 4tb server at the moment.

Might upgrade over the next 12 moths. If I change the server to something with 2.5" drives.

Are people using the "pass" and what extra do you get?

Not sure if this should be a separate topic.

I'm interested in knowing how people here are using Plex and their Media.

I have a Plex server that has basically about 12 films, and 6 or so TV series I've ripped from DVD. All I do is just use the client on our firesticks and stream the content.

How do people here use Plex? Is there more to it that I'm missing the point to?

How do you get your content? Are you ripping physical stuff or getting on demand stuff? What size is your server?

Started to create a "Gold Image" of a Citrix XenDesktop VM

Scanning in some documents for keeping safe before sending

Waiting for everyone to log off, so we can move the SQL server to the new SAN

I'm sure i got my zabbix server set so you didn't need to put the /zabbix at the end of the URL.
e.g. http://zabbix.domain.com not http://zabbix.wynnstay.com/zabbix

Zabbix 5
Centos8

@scottalanmiller said in Random Thread - Anything Goes:

@JaredBusch Dominica and I were both fans from the original run, so we had to get it.

Loved it when i was young

Taking a snapshot of my zabbix server so i can change it to https and url rewrite thingy so when we visit zabbix.domain we don't need the /zabbix
