I like how pathfinder 2 has the concept of secret roles baked into the rules.

I have my players character sheets open at all times and roll for them when they search a room.

Keeps everyone in their toes and eliminates meta gaming

The ending made me ugly cry

i also have a spotify premium account so that can’t be the issue.

Well - happy for you that it works as you want it to. I might give it another shot, maybe i had a bad installation or a flaky version

I’ve also stumbled upon Spotizerr but i’ve had so much problems with it. Usually only getting around 75% of my playlists synced.

I now use onthespot and manually download my playlists once a week. Onthespot also saves a .m3u8 playlist file with absolute paths of the saved music. That way i can just chuck those playlists straigh into my jellyfin and be done.

onthespot needs some tweaking to get it working right. Usually wait 15 seconds between downloads and after around 100 downloaded songs it starts to fail every other song.

I just let it run through and the start the download process for the whole playlist again - it skips all already existing ones and after two or three runs i have everything updated again.

Good setup idea!

I love Aqara for all the sensors stuff, their products work good for me and are a breeze to set up with my son-off ZigBee stick.

I do use a door sensor on my mailbox as its still quite dark in the morning where I live and when the postguy delivers there wouldn’t be enough light for it to trigger lol

Just to throw on some additional ideas: instead of a HA green you can get something like a HP EliteDesk G3 or Lenovo M75Q Tiny and run HA on that. You then have enough performance headroom for Frigate as your camera recorder even with machine learning based detection etc.

And you’d still have enough performance left to run something like Music Assistant 2.0

Regarding your question: yes I can look at the feed through my app at any given time

I use the RTSP2web application in home assistant for better latency, as direct RTSP streaming from the cameras has a delay of around 5 seconds.

I then just plugged that web stream into a video card on one of my dashboards and made a little dropdown menu for a couple preset PTZ points to quickly change to

I am using the Reolink 5MP E1 Zoom

But as @Claude Flammang@dju.social said - the battery powered ones do NOT provide a RTSP stream, therefore can’t be used without the Account.

I don’t know if the hub can connect to HA and i also don’t know if the Hub requres an account.

Sorry

Oh good to know - didn’t know that as i only have three of the basic ones

You can put SD cards into reolonks and store it on them aswell.

They host their own little local webui and offer can be fully integrated into HA

I use reolinks and didn’t have to sign up anywhere.

They are blocked from the internet and work perfectly fine

I run audiobookshelf and it’s amazing!

So glad i switched to jellyfin half a year ago

Maybe the IP address changes? You should provide some more info.

Terminal outputs etc

Yup, mine aswell

I really do love this newsletter

Also i find that the speed of scanning, getting metadata, accuracy of linking metadata and files, the whole music section is lacking on jellyfin comparing to Plex

Still I prefer jellyfin as its free and open source and it does what I want it to do. But in my experience Plex did all of this way better, faster, more accurately and reliable… And jellyfin music category is outright unusable compared to plex

I am talking solely about the server side, not the player side.

Obviously a good functioning player will not need hw accellerated transcoding or hdr conversion. But sometimes that’s simply neither possible or feasable. Some hardware simply cannot properly transcode all formats, or don’t allow for installation of a player that can do that. Sometimes i watch a movie on my laptop while being connected to my phone mobile hotspot and using wireguard to phone home, i don’t want to direct stream a full movie in hdr and 1080p 40mbit/s… i want the server to transcode it properly.

So to conclude - i am talking about serverside, not playerside - stop assuming the person you are talking with doesn’t know what they do simply because you think you know better.

No i am not talking about the player as hw accell and hdr conversion runs on the server itself

The server is not bulletproof and in my experience plex ran better for me than jellyfin.
