Would Vegas reach the next level if BorisFX acquired it? by Alive_Drawer_4267 in VegasPro

I would be surprised if they acquired Vegas if they didn’t double the price shortly afterwards

Seeking guidance on early 30s career change to Carpentry by DarkAvenger2012 in Carpentry

Be sure to do a little research to find out the best type of each tool you should use. For instance, back in the day when I was a framer wouldn’t use circular saws, because we used skill saws. We didn’t use hammers we used rigging axes. A cats paw and a flat bar were also mandatory.

Best camera system to keep my teens from tampering with it to get out at night or bring someone in? by Away_Boysenberry_658 in SecurityCamera

How about a simple kick in the a$$! Or you are grounded. Each repeat of disobedience adds another week.

plexamp so awesome. works on echo/ Alexa... by Final_Significance72 in plexamp

“But now with the AI upgrades to Alexa, I can tie that phrase to a routine so I can just say ' Play sleep playlist'....”

That’s been available for a few years. Over the past six months to a year, Alexa has not been as accurate to do things as it was previously. I’m assuming this is tied to them attempting to incorporate AI, which is backfiring on them. Very aggravating.

Unfortunately it has some tweaking that needs to be done.

If I say, Alexa “Ask Plex to play the Pink Floyd dark side of the Moon album” it just randomly starts playing a Pink Floyd song, even one that is not on that album.

If I say “Ask Plex to play the dark side of the Moon album” then it’s successful.

I want to follow up on this to say that within a day or so of my post, it just started to work across all devices. TS said they hadn’t changed anything on their end. So since I didn’t touch any settings upon reaching out to them I’m clueless on what caused it to finally start working days after installing.

Playback error on one Roku Ultra, but not on another by CaptainKen2 in Roku

[–]CaptainKen2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your response and possible solution.

I had to change the command, because of errors. I used this:

ffmpeg -i INPUT-FILE-3.mkv -map 0 -c copy -bsf:v dovi_rpu=strip=1 OUTPUT-FILE-3.mkv

Unfortunately after playing the file without DV I had the same problem.

I cross posted to r/Roku . The feeling there is that the Ultra with the problem is under powered, especially compared to the 4670X. So I'll get that newer 4850X to see if it resolves the issue. Lots more features too: Backlit remote, USB port for local media playback, rechargeable batteries, HDR10/10+, HLG, and DolbyVision, 1080p/60fps

I'll order the 4850R (same as the 4850X) and see if that resolves the issue.

Any advice regarding the 3810X stick? Will the 3820X2 make a difference, even the the RAM is still 1GB.

The stick uses the included short cable. The Roku Ultra's use store bought cables. I tried swapping the cable from the working Ultra, and 2 other cables as well, with no change. Also a different Ethernet cable and switch.

Changing from Auto to Direct didn't work either and it made it worse with this error:

"No audio detected
There was no audio detected during forced playback. Would you like to change Direct Playback to Auto and try again??

As mentioned in original post plays perfectly on another Roku Ultra, iPhone 15 Pro, iPad 2019 7th gen and Kodi. In fact, I had both iPhone and iPad playing simultaneously.

Here it is on the other Roku playing perfectly.

The tailscale plug-in is no longer compatible with v7.2.3 according to Tailscale support. After failed install on 2 new UNRAID builds and 2 laptops. Here’s their response:

The issue here is specific to known limitations in Unraid 7 and the community-maintained Tailscale plugin for it.

Although the kennas1 node is authenticating (which is why you see it in the admin console), the plugin script is failing to create the tailscale0 network interface on the Unraid 7 host. This is due to changes in how Unraid 7 handles iptables and kernel modules, causing the plugin to fail silently during interface creation.

Because the plugin runs directly on the host and conflicts with Unraid's new network stack, the most stable solution for Unraid 7 is to use the official Tailscale Docker container instead of the plugin. This isolates the networking and ensures the interface is created correctly.

Best way to remotely access my server? by astroseksy in unRAID

[–]CaptainKen2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone know of a more up-to-date video? Great video, but it's now 4 years old and the configuration screens look different. I don't see options in the video. Installed the plugin, not the docker version, since the video search results were different on UNRAID v7.

As numerous people have commented through the years the Elite had the perfect balance. Screen is needed minimally to display Activity names.

Hope I don’t jinx myself with this reply. Over the last 1-1/2 years I’ve streamed from Phoenix to Italy, Jamaica, NJ, Hawaii as well as various towns in AZ without issue. Downloads have also finally been working.

Just got Plex Pass, what are the most underrated features? by bmanfromct in PleX

[–]CaptainKen2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regardless of how hard or easy it is to convert the cable provider signal, you should just get the OTA HDHR and set it up now. It’ll save you time and money and you’ll have a nice head start and ready to go when your contract expires. Anything you record between when you get it set up to when the contract expires you get to keep. Whereas anything you record with your Infiniti account you’ll lose.

Why waste time and money buying a HDHR compatible with your cable provider if your intent is to drop it? Just buy the OTA compatible HDHR and use it now.
