Yeah I was gonna say, Plex has a terrible UI and is why I stay away from that crap.
Jellyseerr thou is something even my less than tech savvy peeps I know just punch stuff into and making the Telegram channel make noises. I should really turn those notifications off.
https://docs.jellyseerr.dev/getting-started
tldr: searches metadata websites for movies and TV shows, and then adds thing to Jellyfin.
You can even then tell your *arrrr stack
to report things that succeed/fail to external services like Telegram.

What I do find weird is actually searching the Plex server I have access to for media

Like, I could? But what I like doing is abusing another family members fibre connection to request things for both of us, that then appears in their Jellyfin magically.
Yup.
Didn’t stop me, either.
In fact, Jellyseerr is a game changer. Wanna talk about it?
I’m taking these posts as Gigabits, and Megathreads
Fuck the pendants?
Depends on your future proofing.
I’ve got a box with two 2.5GbE ethernet ports incoming, but it only takes one 1GbE or 100 Mbps device before that to bottleneck it.
Looks at 1GbE bottleneck.
😭
Yep, it’s how I solved it
The way I do it for a family member with Tailscale is them having a couple of boxes down there (n100 with their Jellyfin server, and a RPI4 with a TVHServer) with my Tailnet signed in, and those boxes running both a “subnet router” and an "exit node"that both me and said fam member can use.
This means she has permissions to use the exit node wherever like I do to my own local LAN, to connect to her LAN and access things locally since you can assign them via the ACL’s / device perms.
I know reading docs can suck sometimes but honest to god the ones that Tailscale put up are pretty awesome.
Along with all the YT videos about it I didn’t even have to go nagging on forums to get it to work, and that’s a general first for me.
Yeah, UK here and a couple of times I get errors about not being able to connect to the relay server in London + Amsterdam also with a public IP address from my ISP, but seem to have no issues even when it shows them unable to connect to the relay servers. The external Tailnet down at fam members house is FTTP but CG-NAT’ed, and why I love how TS works around it. Somehow.
But I have to ask. Have you setup the Tailnet with this fix for IP Forwarding on a subnet router (this helps me so much for tech support on said Tailnet…) and also UDP

I’m currently on my phone but I recall having to ensure the Mini PC w/Ubuntu / Pi4 with Raspbian down at their house had both the above when bringing Tailscale, up
.
Even when it works it’s much slower to connect to my server than VPN.
I wonder why.
Wireguard / TS runs faster than VPN’s, and even my family member has had a couple of devices on my Tailnet down at their place for a couple of years now, and they haven’t a clue how it works and fully believe I’m a magician.
Any background on your connection/location/devices etc?
It’s an expensive journey if you wanna ever keep near Moores Law and why I like handing down shit.
A family member has my old Synology NAS and they still can’t get their head around Jellyseer but understands it, works.
It then also gives me a test + bonus backup place. Have fun!
Fourth person chiming in here !chellomere@lemmy.world, and I’ve pretty much the same as the above guys.
Segmented the NAS to being a NAS + arrr stack, N100 for Immich/Jellyfin HW transcoding, RPi3& 5 for Adguard and TVHeadend server.
I like the idea of there not being a single point of failure.
but IDK if I’m great at it.
Simples is best, hands down. Maybe some tooltips wouldn’t go amiss on your demo page?
But as someone else pointed out, a link to the GitHub either in the header or footer of your demo page would be ace too. It was the first thing I looked for this morning seeing your posts and had to come back to the comments to find it 🙈
Keep up the great work, and I shared between our nerd group and they have eyeballs on it. Seems a no brainer for teams collaborating online where we’ve got used of shitty Slack 🤢 Dicksword whatever.
ninjaedit: if you want some help Android app wise, give us a ping. I have a few bored devs lurking looking for app ideas ;)
I love it, and along with the folder they get dumped into being R/O means Immich (and by extension me…) can’t fugg up the timeline ;)
SMB (the protocol) works across devices and OS’s, and I use SMBSync2 to dump my photos to my NAS + off site
https://files.catbox.moe/rpqu4h.jpg
This has worked fine for me for years even thou the app isn’t on the Play Store anymore, and is fairly granular in regards to file types and where you wanna back them up
Do you worry about that Zero being deauthed since it uses 2.4 only still?
I ask as I’m having somewhat of a bit of lag / delay or something I need to look further into later with a Zero/DVBHAT + between my RPi5 / router which is using as its DNS provider (AdguardHome) and because I still use a 2.4GhZ camera (which has also been playing up recently…), got me thinking about having all the cams / Pi’s / SFF PC’s not only hard wired, but turning off the 2.4GhZ weefee altogether on the router due to Flippers and shit.
tldr: should I care?
Yeah me too, photos and videos I’ve recorded are the only things I’m bothered about. Backing up off-site all my arrrrr booty is redundant since I’ve shared it to a 2.1 ratio already and hopefully can download it again from people with larger storage than my family member has.
It’s how I handle backing up those photos / videos thou. I bought them a 512GB card and shoved that in a GLi AP they have down there which I sync my DCIM folder to (app was removed from Play Store since it didn’t need updating but Googles stupid policies meant it went RIP…), and I also backup that to the old Synology NAS I handed down to them. I suppose I could use Syncthing but I like that old app since the adage if it’s not broke don’t fix it applies.
Along with them having Tailscale on a Pi4 (on a UPS and is their/my backup TVHeadend server) and their little N100 media box I don’t even bother them with my meager photo collection and works good.
Are you telling us we should put a bet on Charlie copping it soon? 🤔
