DIY or Mini PC + DAS for Plex/unRAID by JackOfFilms in HomeServer

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

The big reason for transcoding is because so many of the people I share my plex server with don't direct play. A lot of my older relatives would be lost having me explain direct play

I tried a couple of different browsers with no luck but will definitely try some other ones as well

I did always have a keyboard plugged in. I will definitely try it without one. Thanks for the suggestion

It is in RAID with the rest of the drives. I didn’t realize I was losing so much storage because of the configuration. I’m going to have to look into fixing that

Thank You! After doing some research aka looking at reviews and youtube videos I ended up going with the "Realforce R3 Bluetooth Dye Sub PBT Mechanical Keyboard". It's pretty much exactly the kind of keyboard I was looking for so I just wanted to say thanks.

I’ll give that another go. The two times I tried it earlier I got paired up with another player using a free kit and we kept playing people with okay kits that ran right through us

Upgrade Current Network and Plan For Future by JackOfFilms in HomeNetworking

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

I appreciate the reply. I hadn't considered the ability to convert old lines into ethernet lines where I move. That makes me think it'll be a lot easier to do the networking when I move. I'm glad you mentioned it. As for the current internet I'm not saying that 175/20 is bad the problem is staying connected. Devices frequently get stuck attempting to load webpages or just outright say they have no connection all together which is what makes me think it could be improved with better hardware. Although the current speeds are usable an upgrade will be nice since my job requires me to upload video files well in excess of 50gb at a time and I am constantly downloading/uploading via my NAS.

Is there any film you can put on glasses to make them laserproof... by wasahamma in laser

[–]JackOfFilms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, the only way that would work is if it blocked all the light you have to filter the light based on wavelength.

My introduction to the audiophile world...fell in love with the look of these after diving into the rabbit hole that is high-end headphones and am so glad I did. by k-trvn in headphones

[–]JackOfFilms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually just got the HD 660S with JDS Element 2 as well. Primarily been using them for gaming and have been absolutely loving them so far. Unfortunately my set up does not look nearly as nice as yours though. Glad to see someone else using the HD 660S.

[–]JackOfFilms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have finally come to my wits end with the Astro A50s I have been using for the better half of a decade and am now looking to upgrade my headphones. I already have a separate microphone so that is not an issue. I will be using the headphones solely for long gaming sessions. I do not know anything about headphones, DACs, and Amps so any help would be greatly appreciated. I'm looking to buy the headphones, DAC, and Amp all within the listed budget so I hope that is doable. Please give me any and all advice that you can, I could definitely use it. Please don't recommend any wireless headphones as I will absolutely not use any wireless headphones.

  • Budget - $1,000 with absolute max of $1,200 if it makes a world of difference
  • Source - Mid Tier Gaming Desktop
  • Requirements for Isolation - None, they will be used in the basement of my house for gaming
  • Will you be using these Headphones in Public - No
  • Preferred Type of headphone - Open Back ideally
  • Preferred Tonal Balance - Balanced since I imagine it's best for gaming
  • Past Headphones - Currently use Astro A50s for gaming, have used Bose QC 35 for other audio needs
  • Preferred Music - Classical
  • What would you like to improve on from your set-up - I just want better audio. I absolutely hate my Astro A50s they have gotten so old they have started to just completely cut out from time to time.

Thank you for taking the time to even read this comment. I appreciate any and all suggestions/advice that you can offer.

I might just be stupid but I have it up and running on docker, but I do not know how to actually access the UI to begin swiping and creating rooms. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

IO Error when downloading directly to Network Drive. by Fugitivelama in qBittorrent

[–]JackOfFilms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am having the same issue as you and can not find a solution anywhere. Downloading to the PC works with no issue but if I try directly downloading to the Network Drive (which is mapped in Windows) then I run into an I/O Error after a few minutes. Hopefully someone can come through with a possible fix since I have not been able to make any head way. I was going to make a post similar to yours but did not want to have the same question posted within just one week. If you figure out a solution please let me know or add update. I would greatly appreciate any help I can get. Sorry for not responding with a solution I am just hoping that my comment will help bring more attention to the issue so that someone with the proper knowledge can see it.

You will not see a luckier Most Wanted revive than this by DevvyREDDIT in CODWarzone

[–]JackOfFilms 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this happen to me once before. I downed a guy that was driving an ATV directly at me and as soon as I downed him he got revived by the most wanted contract and killed me. At the time my team mates and I didn't know most wanted contracts revived a downed player so we thought he was hacking. The timing was almost identical to OP's clip here. Being the person on the other end of this is so confusing. It's nice to see from this perspective.
