That article is for lay-persons and really an awareness article I surmise. If you’re technical you are likely already aware of the security concerns with jacascript.

Malicious javascript seeks to bypass security controls. It’s one of the reasons NoScript is a thing. It could be a malware loaded from an ad. Biggest reason for adblockers imo.

I solved this problem by having all of my media in a supported format of all of my devices so no transcoding is needed. My Pi 4 can transcode two 480p streams simultaneously or a single 1080p stream but can’t do any more than that. However it can stream at least 4 streams simultaneously a mix of 4k, 1080p and 480p. It suits my needs unless I’m transcoding 4k due to subtitles 😵. Hopefully transcoding won’t be required for subtitles forever… right? Right?
Word of caution, if you have been browsing successfully until now, it could be a malicious javascript app or malware loaded from that website that is attempting to scan your network or do other things. In other words if this is a new firewall request above and beyond the standard one librewolf needs to function, proceed with cation.
What’s the format of the videos? I’ve tried everything I could think of to rip and transcode a 3D bluray.
“The Human Landing System is aiming to complete its development—from project start to launch—in 79 months, which is 13 months shorter than the average for NASA major projects,” the GAO wrote in its report. It’s unrealistic, the GAO said, to expect the HLS program to complete development more than a year faster than that average.
“GAO found that if development took as long as the average for NASA major projects, the Artemis III mission would likely occur in early 2027,” the government watchdog concluded.
It would have been achieved by now if it had more than just token amounts of funding.
No judgement here. I think it’s a worthy goal just not one I am particularly interested in at this point. Maybe if the automation was a bit easier and the mobile device management was easier I might join you.
My experience is it’s really a lot of work and with the prevalence of letsencrypt, there is not a lot of automated setups for this use case (at least that I have been able to find). It is kind of a pain in the ass to run your own CA, especially if you plan to not use wildcard and to rotate certs often. If you use tailscale, they offer https certs with a subdomain given to you:
[server-name].[tailnet-name].ts.net
That’s honestly what I’m moving towards.
Another vote for wiki.js. It has tons of authentication options and integrations. The mobile web interface is a tad clunky but usable.
It was probably a wandering planet that was captured by the dwarf star.
Mine is only accessible from VPN so I’m not worried.
This article is a big nothing burger.
Thanks for the write up. I am currently using a Roku TV with the Jellyfin client running on it. I’ll need to look into Kodi and sounds like I might need an AVR or set top box. It would be nice if these things (TVs, soundbars) were more open. Maybe we need an open source soundbar firmware, then I could permanently disable Alexa and maybe make use of it’s networking capabilities.
Since you brought it up, what is the difference there? Do you mean gameplay design as in the whole game is this way or as in this scene is not a level? (No I didn’t watch OP’s video.)
That’s what I had heard as well. Maybe this is a new feature request for the project developers.
Interesting. Can you tell me more about your setup? A Jellyfin server (does it need a plugin?) then TV is running Kodi client which connects to Jellyfin and your transcoding settings are configured on the Kodi client? Is that right or am I missing something?
So back to my origin question. Jellyfin supports transcoding so can it support device specific profiles where I can force it to transcode all audio to ac3 for specific decices?
Under my TV’s audio digital output format selection it says “select pass through to hear unmodified dolby or dts audio using ARC. If dolby or dts passthrough is not possible, you’ll hear stereo.” It lets me choose custom but can’t get it to use the AAC surround unless I use optical.
My understanding is some parts have to be done sequentially even though the parts themselves are multithreaded, now the different parts can all be done in parallel.
