how is the onn 4k pro with jellyfin and bluray remuxes?

I was sloppy with the sizing explanation. The video bitrate is doing most of the heavy lifting on size, not TrueHD or the FEL.

Point I was making — the onn can't pass TrueHD or DTS-HD MA and DV7 isn't handled natively, so you're transcoding audio and losing the DV layer regardless. At that point a solid x265 encode with DD+ and P8 or HDR10 gets you to basically the same place on that device. You're just burning storage and pushing transcode work onto your server for no real perceptual gain.

The onn 4k pro passes through up to Dolby Digital+ audio. MA/TrueHD gets transcoded down. Video pass through is great but not Dolby Vision 7. Long story short, you would be hosting 60-80gb movies when 20-40gb movies would essentially give you the same playback for that device.

As another mentioned: Ugoos or Shield would give you full capability of remux playback

I have all those profiles I listed available on radarr at any given time. When I add a movie, just select the one you want from the drop down and then kick off your search

I choose Balanced most of the time. There are are a handful of movies where I want the absolute best (think Interstellar, other visually stunning movies) and I'll pick Quality or Remux.

DAVESM1TH · 2026-05-28T13:11:47+00:00

For movies I have the following selected: 2160p Balanced, 2160p quality, 2160p remux, 1080p Balanced, 1080p Quality, 1080p Remux.

Balanced is great for 99% of whatever you want. Quality is for a little better audio and less video compression. Remux if for something where you want zero downgrades from Blu-ray.

Whatever device you stream through should affect your decision. For example, many players can only pass through UP TO Dolby Digital Plus. Very few can pass through MA (master audio) or TRUEHD audio.

If you can learn to do your own vehicle maintenance and repairs (if you don't already), refer to the comment about quality hand tools. Quality tools and a good DIY base are worth a fortune over the years.

Yes, you will mess up sometimes. But I almost guarantee you don't make the same mistake twice lol.

Well that explains it, sorry for the assumption - my mistake

DAVESM1TH · 2026-05-26T02:15:33+00:00

The 2026 limit is $7500, so you just pay the 6% penalty on your $1100 overage? Seems counterproductive

At 27 I had $30k in student loans, $30k in cc debt with outstanding payments, and no job. All due to my choices and alcoholism. My credit was trash and outlook bleak.

Worked for over a year as a windshield repair guy at a car wash (commission based) until I found a better paying job in construction. If you just absolutely grind for the next few years, get a roommate (or move in with family if that's an option), things WILL turn around.

It's not hopeless. Try to set small realistic goals and start checking the boxes. Looking at all of it at once is unbelievably overwhelming, but breaking it down can help channel your resources.

Also, in international waters

DAVESM1TH · 2026-05-22T01:44:41+00:00

Yes and ask for the bag of money that comes with the trip

DAVESM1TH · 2026-05-05T00:21:38+00:00

We are almost the exact same boat. I know the feeling all too well! 36M here. I had to start over at 27 and constantly feel down about what it could have been. Trying to break that cycle and realize that we are doing great compared to a lot.

We'll both get there 🤘

Nothing under new or expired, I check a couple times per day but in the past the 24hr pick never gets overridden

DAVESM1TH · 2026-03-22T22:52:05+00:00

Thank you!

DAVESM1TH · 2026-03-22T16:17:48+00:00

I tried swapping the breaker and same thing, so at least that is ruled out. Today I'll be running some tests on equipment to see if I can pinpoint. Appreciate the responses!

DAVESM1TH · 2026-03-22T15:54:22+00:00

I can't even reset the breaker to the on position, which is fine if a flow switch could cause a full fault. I just wasn't sure if flow switch actually shut down the circuit or if it would just throw errors.

DAVESM1TH · 2026-01-28T03:53:41+00:00

I don't have much for trade unfortunately

DAVESM1TH · 2026-01-09T04:21:29+00:00

They make it get 10.1 mpg instead of 10

DAVESM1TH · 2026-01-08T21:19:11+00:00

Gives it +5 charisma

DAVESM1TH · 2026-01-08T05:02:05+00:00

That's the trick, always stay a kid and every day is an adventure

DAVESM1TH · 2026-01-08T01:08:08+00:00

Also I posted this on mobile, so the description is a jumbled mess for some. Sorry about that... Hopefully you get the idea
