Sorry, I’m not sure - like I said, I’m on a Pi.
The Nvidia Shield seems to be the gold standard, but it’s kind of pricey. I’m using a Raspberry Pi (2? 3?) running LibreElec with the Jellyfin plugin. It works great for video but has some issues with music playlists. You could also try a cheap Onn box from Walmart.
I’m pretty happy with Pixels for the moment, so it’s a $5 USB-C to 1/8" dongle for me. That or the Pixel Buds I got for free as as promo with the phone. I’ve never had to charge and use the converter at the same time, but I believe there are cheap dongles that can do that too.
you are better off buying xiaomi/poco
If they have the cell bands you want in the US - which they don’t necessarily.
You can already do this, but it’s not at all intuitive. So I’m glad they’re making it easier.
Awesome! … What’s a CI?
(I started reading the link but it doesn’t introduce the term.)
I’ve been shopping for the same thing. I can report that Intel N100-based computers currently (February 2024) have issues with Linux WiFi drivers. Not a problem if you’re hardwiring it.
I’d also avoid the really tiny PCs because they use the shortest M.2 drives (2242), which limits capacity and upgradeability. You want one that fits a 2280 M.2 drive. Or a 2.5" SATA drive.
I tried moving mine over to Linux and it broke streaming from devices to Kodi.
Now, I’m sure I could spend a day banging my head against google and mucking with my Docker containers to get it working, but I decided it’s not really worth the effort.
If you need a project, I’d go ahead and set up the server with a small library and see if all the features that are important to you are working. Then give it the full library.
But in general, if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.
I’m curious, when was the last time you were surreptitiously recorded?
$P$G
I’m old
You’ll fit right in.
It’s not - it just feel more dangerous somehow.
One of these days I’ll read through the PEP and figure out why Python doesn’t have do-while. I understand that it’s just as bad, but while(True) feels so dangerous.
are non carrier phones not available in USA
Sure they are - you can buy directly from Google if you want. Phones from carriers are subsidized / free to hook you into a contract, but you can also just buy a phone and pop your SIM card into it.
Or the app requires root.
I’ll also recommend Docker and in particular the “linuxserver” containers. They release containers for all the *arr apps, jellyfin, etc. and they’re all configured similarly, which makes things easier.
I had trouble getting casting working from a container on my NAS, so I went back to my Windows server. But it’s easy enough to set up a test server with a small library and check to see if everything works for you.
If you just want to distance yourself from Google, give OpenBoard a try. It’s GBoard without the G. It’s been working just the same for me, except for some reason it spontaneously decided to stop automatically capitalizing “I”.
Looks like you meant “SyncTrayzor”.
I’ve considered SyncThing before but it looked very fiddly. SyncTrayzor should be very helpful.
I’m interested in this too. I have unreleased music that I’ve made and it somehow generates reasonable similarities to other music in my library. It can’t be simply pulling the info from the net since the artist name I’m using isn’t out there anywhere. Some kind of spectral analysis maybe?
