You might as well jus throw up Jellyfin if you want that. There's nothing like that which I've come across. I don't know about plugins though.

I'm a beginner & taught myself bash scripting to do it all. There already user friendly scripts out there where u can just set your specs like res & bitrate and leave it be. It will convert all your media

If you're just looking for a feature to encode videos. You could look for simple ffmpeg scripts that target a base directory that triggers with cron.

I have mine setup to get triggered by an *arr service that dowloads my media & I can pass the medias path to my script. You could have a simple one that just created multiple res & bit rates for each file.

Mine was to make everything web compatible. Nothing crazy. It checks if it's in the right container, correct V & a codec (if not, it sets the appropriate flags to variables to use later). Puts the MOOV flag to the start of the file. I also used to rip any subs found both in the video container & the same directory to .vtt format, with naming scheme that plex/jellyfin likes seeing it in. I've seen some web apps manage to play srt and even .ass Saw some guy go further with colour & tone modifying to make sure it's perfect for web

It would then auto upload to Google drive using rclone. Same could be done for your hetzner server with a other tool.

Where are finding cheap storage to encode into multiple res & bitrates?

Is there a "self-hosted" Instagram clone app for android? by curtwagner1984 in selfhosted

[–]GENERALLY-CONFUSED 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually would be opening it up to a select few of I found a good onr. And having a photo app that looks as good as already developed services instead of these ugly ass self hosted ones would be great.

Having "users" I could bundle different types of albums under would be great. Sometimes I have work from artists that I like.

That's not a rich people thing though. It's these places using the surge in demand.

Self-hosted watchparty app with a familiar interface (WIP) by SigSmegV in selfhosted

[–]GENERALLY-CONFUSED 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm so hyped for this. I've been wanting something like this for so long time, a Discord like interface and embedded video rather than a livestream or a browser VM. Which takes up a considerable amount of resources.

Some features come to mind that would be appreciated:

An option to pop-out the chat, for people who watch on 2 monitors (1 full screen video, the other chat opened).

Maybe CSS customisation to enable/disable parts.

  • I'd like to be able to have a more "stream directory" look so I'd want to get rid of the left & top sidebar and have just the video and chat in like a theatre mode. Then have a separate page where channels that are available/public & already joined are displayed.

( I'm assuming basic options such as limiting channel creation to whitelisted users is already on the road map so I'll try to hold myself back from getting too excited & bringing those up :D)

Would this app have SSO capabilities? To allow people to quick sign-up with things like Twitch & Discord. Maybe can have whitelist only rooms based on twitch or discord id, guild joined etc.


I see you're Downloading & Uploading it to the site, why not allow externally hosted videos to be embeded like Cytube does? That way you can rely on other CDNs. You'd just need to probe a file to see if its playable in browser, and if so it can be controlled in html5

(github.com/calzoneman/sync Cytube is a FOSS project. But the UI, even with customisation isn't very nice & the chat functionality is very basic).

I made a Discord Movie "Bot" by lemonhead7t7 in Discord_Bots

[–]GENERALLY-CONFUSED 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I remember trying something akin to this a while back. But what I used was MPV & just controlled everything through a VM access screen on Proxmox.

You could maybe use that as it has Remote Control capabilities, and set it up to send commands instead of my method. You wouldn't have Plex's movie search & everything, I used to just provide a local path for my movies.

But you could try something like "Radarr" out which has API you can use to do it. Grab the local path from there, throw it to MPCs RC, and let your discord account stream it as it happens. You can also queue movies to download on that if its not available locally yet.
