1 library and movies are all 4K if newer than 2010. Otherwise it’s 1080p just like TV series.

Dedicated i5 desktop running unRAID, Plex and the Arr’s and I stream using my Chromecast with the Netflix button reprogrammed to launch Plex. No TV, No Streaming services and it’s pure joy.
They’re $265 CAD for each 10TB Western Digital Red Drives and I bought 4. They’re NAS drives and so they’re spinning platters and not solid state but it’s fine for my needs.
I also bought an i5 desktop with a 1TB NVMe drive, 16GB of RAM for $900 CAD that runs at PCIe gen 4x4 and with the unRAID OS installed, it’ll auto-tier between NVMe and the 10TB drives. Works like a hot damn and it’s cheaper and faster than a NAS from QNAP with the Celeron processor.
Arr. Thank ye me matey.
Eyelashes freezing together… yeah, been there. 😉
Miserable is a huge understatement. It’s fatal when not properly clothed. As a kid I recall going to check our mail at the communal mailbox and it was -66C (-86F) with the windchill and every TV channel had a banner saying you WILL get frostbite with 30 SECONDS if skin is exposed. I know people who have lots fingers/toes in warmer temperatures than that so it’s straight up fatally cold.
Very cool stats.
I setup my Plex in October and have since downloaded 27TB of Movies and TV.
I’m doing my part!
Do you still need to DeCrypt the DVD with DVD Decryptor?
Lidarr.
Overseerr.
I built an unRAID server using an i5 desktop and it’s the best experience ever.
No ads.
Content never gets removed.
I can watch everything I have remotely and can even share my library with friends/family.
And the price will never go up yet I can watch anything from Netflix, Disney+, Hulu, Amazon Prime, Apple TV+… you name it.
And fools seldom differ.
Same here. So much better than any streaming service. There’s a small initial cost to get started but it’s worth every penny.
Companies hate OpEx and love CapEx. That’s the main driver as companies loathe hardware life cycle costs and prefer a pay as you go model. It is more expensive but it’s more budget friendly as you avoid sticker shock every 3-4 years.
And they breed. What’s that saying? The meek shall inherit the earth?
Then complain to the property owner instead of complaining about drivers on the internet. The drivers are doing nothing wrong here.
Summit for Lemmy. Really solid app.
Is the Microsoft Launcher something you’d try? I’ve had it for awhile and it’s great, though I’m no expert on launchers.
