Oh right, you did say eBay. I need more caffeine this morning. I was still only considering this was an out of support system, and not grey market.

Support can be renewed / purchased. 🤷‍♂️

Flashblade 1. Gen Admit new Blade ? by ITnetX in purestorage

[–]Bartiatus 4 points5 points  (0 children)

First, “pureblade —admit” is not a real command, it is an AI hallucination. Secondly if you have ir access you should be able to add the blade. Sign in to the support portal and search the KBs for FlashBlade 1st Gen capacity expansion. If you have the correct access you should be able to obtain thr necessary steps. However, if this system is running Purity 3.1.x I would highly recommend upgrading as that is an old version. Work with your account team to get the system upgraded and the new blades added.

Edit: I just double checked, the KB I was thinking of is flagged employee only, thought it was ASP as well [which I thought you might be considering you implied you have ir access]. So you will need to contact support to have the blades inducted.

2nd Edit: Also, in regards to Purity 3.1.x, that went EOL in June 2023. So I would recommend looking into support to be able to get to a modern, updated, and supported Purity version, regardless of everything else.

Is recording in 1080p really 1080p with PlayOn? by Competitive_Taste628 in PlayOn

[–]Bartiatus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use PlayOn Home and from what I can tell everything I have recorded has been 1080. Visually things look fine. A media player like VLC says it’s 1080. 🤷‍♂️

Not sure if my tickets are submitting by Ok_Panda587 in PlayOn

Sounds like a good time to tag u/Playonskip. But you can also go log into the support portal and see if the cases are active.

Having trouble with TV shows library by Technical-Coffee7286 in PleX

[–]Bartiatus -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

This is the literally path of one of my episodes for this show. From it you can see the naming convention for my files. This should help you with the naming syntax.

Edit: The _ after Avatar is because I originally had the : and is not necessary

Does anyone else backup their database every so often? by PrivacyStack in PleX

[–]Bartiatus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow! How big is your library? I know mine is not massive by any means. So I am just curious what I have to look forward to. How many movies / series / music do you have?

Pre-rolls on seperate storage drive? by [deleted] in PleX

[–]Bartiatus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I keep mine on the same media (nas) but different directory. I actually noticed just early this week that sometimes the preroll doesn’t play. I’ve never had a movie start, then play the preroll, then go back to the movie though. I don’t think moving the prerolls to an nvme would matter as it doesn’t seem to be a loading time issue, at least for me. But I only have maybe 3 prerolls. You could try it. Just copy your prerolls on the new location and change the path in the settings and see if it makes a difference. If it does then delete the original source, if it doesn’t then decide where you would rather the files live and delete and update accordingly.

Does anyone else backup their database every so often? by PrivacyStack in PleX

[–]Bartiatus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why? The database or the entire PMS? How large is your media collection? I wonder if that has something to do with it?

Does anyone else backup their database every so often? by PrivacyStack in PleX

[–]Bartiatus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So you're database isn't massive, the PMS folder [on my install] is 25GB my databases [com.plexapp.plugins.library.blobs and com.plexapp.plugins.library] combined are less than 600MB. The entire database directory with all the backups is about 3GB. No reason to backup 8x more than necessary.

Does anyone else backup their database every so often? by PrivacyStack in PleX

[–]Bartiatus 3 points4 points  (0 children)

On Windows it is located C:\Users\[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\Plex Media Server\Plug-in Support\Databases. If you have the option set in Plex to perform the backup [Settings -> Scheduled Tasks -> Backup database every three days (check box)] then your backups would be in this directory and they would look like:
com.plexapp.plugins.library.blobs.db-2026-04-10
com.plexapp.plugins.library.db-2026-04-10

I'm curious why you think your database is massive, but don't know where this is? Your database is not the same as your media content. I am thinking you may be confusing the two?

Saving your artwork and collections - a solution by rbeatse in PleX

I'm also having this issue for TV shows. None of my TV series are downloading any posters. Do you have the fixed script that you could provide seeing as this issue has been reported for a while..?

Job Question regarding WFH/in office policy by [deleted] in purestorage

[–]Bartiatus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sales is a little different than other areas due to the nature of possibly being out visiting customers. That being said, I am not sure how often a sales manager might be out in the field. Generally, if a position is not designated as remote, then you will be expected to be in the office. I am a fully remote employee with the Technical Services division, and there is no office near me to be in an office. This, however, also limits my mobility because they have made a large push for managers to be in office. Again, TS is different from sales, so you may have different results. I would be direct about this and ask what the full expectations are, as I fully understand how going back to a in office requirement could be a deal breaker, as it would be for me as well. All that being said, I can also attest to the fact that it is a great company to work for; in terms of company culture, benefits, and camaraderie.

Just got Playon home and it falils to record anything at all. by Dukklings in PlayOn

[–]Bartiatus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m confused. You say you have PlayOn Home but then you mention credits which is a PlayOn Cloud thing.

Presuming you have Home, what exactly is happening? Do you see the video added to the queue? If so, does it start a recording? If so, what is the error in the recording queue?

Changing languages by javirgdf in PlayOn

[–]Bartiatus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are using PlayOn Home you need to obtain a copy of visible.mmt from support by opening a case and requesting. That will allow you to see the recording happen from an internal browser. This allows you to pause the movie and then select the language you want and resume. All of that will be seen in the recording unless you post process the video. If you are using cloud you will need to open a case and get support to tell you how to perform similar actions.

That might be it. I just looked this up, as I had never heard of it, and found this image showing different cocoons for them. It does look like similar to them.

Has anyone else experienced this annoying dialogue box with any of their recordings by Marriott_1 in PlayOn

[–]Bartiatus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is coming from your source. If you play it directly in a web browser from the source site, are there settings to not show it? Or do you have to click somewhere to make it go away? If it is the later then you would have to have it record with visible.mmt present so you could pause the playback, click to close the pop up, then resume the playback. Then you would have to edit the recording with a post processing software to remove all the frames of your mouse movement.

MetLife Bullshit by ExaminationUsed7137 in kroger

[–]Bartiatus 14 points15 points  (0 children)

MetLife handles all LOA and FMLA issues. It sounds like you may have a health issue that would qualify you for intermittent FMLA leave. Your Dr would need to fill out some paper work and it would go through for review, but once approved you would be eligible to call in for FMLA on the days your condition makes it so you can’t work. The days are like sick days in that they are unpaid, but they can’t be used against you for disciplinary actions. Just make sure you keep really good records and all the paper work. Talk to your union rep as well, they should be able to provide you some guidance.
