This guy

explain this to the dumbass

Quantum parallel universe

I need you to narrate the watch for rolling rocks video

In this video I will explaining exactly what I do

… but to answer that, we need to talk about parallel universes

Ok it’s revenge of the 6th back to Star Wars theme

Is there some magic thing I have to do to make plex play mkvs, its being stubborn

Is it your scanner not finding them? or are they not playing for you?

I got them to work but i have to change each file, force direct play to true and disable direct stream

uh.... that sounds weird

are your mkv's strange?

Theyre really high bitrate but thats about it

are they HDR rips?

Hdr 4k atmos

the HDR video is what's doing that then, I suspect it's related to the CPU you have for encode

(Spooky's guess)

Well, whatever it wanted, forcing it to do direct play was what worked

yeah, I have that as my default

I ran into some legacy issue with oorbs, re-contained in mkv's

it's all just arbitraty BS

I forget how beefy my plex server actually is, i figured itd struggle streaming this

Its a 7900k tho

I think, idr

You're ready for 20+ users with that lol

Nah ive seen 100% usage on it single user

HOW

Couldnt tell you

Oh, not that it makes a difference

But I was thinking of Intel's stack wrong

Ok i just went and looked and its not having the issue anymore

Its at like 4% load

Its only a 7700k

Do i

Ever need to update plex on the server end

Or does it do it

Itself

It says up to date so i assume itself

I assume unraid does itself too

If you're an admin

It should also do it every 30 or 90 days or something

As long as it works idc

Pm

It works amazingly well for how little work i put in

Having tried literally all of the media servers

Plex is the only choice

Well plex and unraid both

Even if you want to be a contrarian, just write your own Plex scanner

FUCK omv

That was a nightmare

I have misgivings with parts of unRAID, but I think it's good for mid-tier self hosting

My only complaint with it

That i havent needed to deal with yet

Is that i have to pay more for more drives

The price is kind of weird

I cant just throw any shit drive in

Its really not bad tbh

Other than Synology, no one else has anywhere near as nice an app/extension repo as unraid

Especially now that Docker is kill

I think it was 70$ for 5 drives or smtn?

I think it's $50/$70/$90

Docker is dead? Thats the one one i do

On the repo side

You can still docker

I never learned how to use it

But it's on its way out

I am server retarded

K8s is the replacement, which is also shit

So we'll need to wait a few years for mature lxc containers or something

It had me do basic coding and paths and shit iirc

And i got lost immediately

Yep, and you shouldn't have to do any of that

If Docker worked correctly

I've always hated docker, and learning that it's literally EoL with no replacement

Is so funny

Can i just get a server app store that i click a button and everything i dl works

That's what I want

Ya

Because docker is not that
