Been almost totally Jellyfin for nearly a year… apart from live TV, still using ChannelsDVR for that mainly for the TVE intergration. I should try to bring everything into Jellyfin though!

Any advice on what wearables to use to track cardio performance? I'm nominally just looking for heart rate and calories burned. Without an account on some privacy dredging cloud service. I dug out my old Fitbit, but it's a paperweight without an account.

I may not make it for Jellyfin January, but how do you think Jellyfin would run on an old Thinkpad E540? It's the only "spare" device I have around. I was hoping to get an ODroid soon, but currently don't have the spare funds. Car repairs come first!

I guess I'm lucky I never got hooked on plex. I've been doing the jellyfin challenge for years, and I used emby before that. I have no complains except that it never worked with my Chromecast

I have a couple of TPLink APs. I ran an Omada docker container for a while but ended up ditching it because it doesn't expose all AP capabilities to configure centrally. Also managing the AP via Omada disables the web UI on the AP so some options basically become unavailable. Interested to hear your journey with just 1 AP. Keep up the good work! love the show.

I got two LANs one local and one remote. Is there a way to bridge both LANs with TailScale? if so, how would you do it? I got a Jellyfin server on the remote LAN but want to watch on a Roku on the local LAN that doesn't have Tailscale option

I’ve been using jellyfin for years. never used plex prior though. the game changer for me was when Chris introduced the audience to infuse. jellyfin on the backend and infuse for user facing is amazing. had the family approval factor for years.

I've been using the linuxserver.io jellyfin docker container as my daily driver for about 9 months now. live Tv streaming over the internet and satip eorks like a charm and the media libraries are well supported. Tailscale solves the "problem" of external access beter than any reverse proxy could. I am more then willing to give up some of the more obsucre plex capabilities for the freedom and security of a locally hosted instance. IMHO it is just 1 or 2 years behind plex...

anonymously (please dont read out my name on the show for this comment) i also wanted to mention stash.io as a media server. it is so well programmed and the automatic identification of scenes using perceptiol hashes is a great approach. I wish there was a fork focused on mainstream media. it has some great potential as a media server.
