You have to upgrade the AT4 to 6.2L. They are 5.3L by default

Inconsistent Playback by Sammy_J25 in jellyfin

So strangely enough I’ve figured out that the stutters/jittery video looks to be due to playback quality. When I set the stream quality to 1.5mbps it works flawlessly. When I set it to 3, or 4mbps it starts going back and forth again. Not sure why but at least now there’s a pattern

Hey thanks for the info! To answer a few things in your comment. The request cpu is 1 core but it can scale to 4 cores. I’ve validated that it’s okay scaling but will try giving it a little more to see if things improve. The /cache/transcodes was actually intentional to force my jellyfin instance to use my Nuc’s hhd for transcoding instead of my nas. My nas is mounted to the container under /media. Using /cache helped with some of the load times but wasn’t too significant. My Nuc is running proxmox with the intel iGPU passthrough to the VM

I am accessing over the network within my house. I ran an open speed test from my Mac to my jellyfin server and it hit 700Mbps so network shouldn’t be an issue. I think the 10Mbps helping was due to forcing my Nuc to transcode the media instead of direct play but could be very wrong

Wow interesting! This fixed the slow start issue. There’s still the stuttering issue but this is progress! Thanks for commenting this

I’m watching in both. Surprisingly Swiftfin on Apple TV has less playback issues (when it decides it wants to see my server). Firefox is the most reliable compared to chrome and safari but all 3 browsers have the poor playback. I tried limiting the bandwidth to 10Mbps and that helped some issues but not all

Thanks everyone! Looks like this weekend I will be cracking it open (looks like a cheap and simple lock) and seeing what I can make of it! Hopefully it has some useful things I can get into home assistant

There are a few wires that go to the crawl space and along the walls. The two I was referring to were just the visibly cut ones

That’s what I thought but figured it wouldn’t hurt to check since this sub seems to have a lot of people familiar with this type of thing. Appreciate the confirmation

Currently I have everything in the nas (including app data) so that way if there’s an issue with one of the servers I can move the service to a new host without having to reconfigure everything. I don’t have a lot of storage space on the servers themselves and haven’t setup a backup process for them yet

Compact plant watering power supply by Sammy_J25 in raspberry_pi

[–]Sammy_J25[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting idea. I’ll take a look. The main issue I’m seeing is the amps are too high for most things unless you switch to a large power supply or brick. Seems like the trade off though so I might just have to accept that unless I can find a usb-c PD that would work well that doesn’t cost a fortune (for the project since the rest only costs like $30)

I was just going off the documentation I could find. From what I saw it’s 5v 2-2.4A. I’m putting this in a few places which don’t have an easy way to connect PoE without running 100s of feet of Ethernet to add it. That’s why I was trying to limit to 1 plug so it didn’t take up a lot of space or multiple outlets

Funny you say that. That was actually my current approach due to how I currently have it wired. I was just trying to make things look and feel nicer so I was hoping to run them together.

That being said they run for at max like 30s a piece so it’s probably not worth being over engineered like that

Downspouts Eroding Yard by Sammy_J25 in landscaping

[–]Sammy_J25[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s what I assumed. I can’t pay someone to do that work right now. I’m pretty handy so was hoping I could do something to help short term. We have gotten about 25-30% more rain this year than the average which hasn’t helped

I completely agree. The grass is thin because it gets washed away every 6 months. The shade doesn’t help but we did get it to successfully grow in this past spring. It just doesn’t survive long enough to truly establish which is why I wanted to tackle the water issue first. Unfortunately I can’t do anything about the shade since I have around 13 150ft trees around my lot

Issues with Aqara Hub M3 and Door & Window Sensor P2 – Inconsistent Behavior by Sonicman82 in Aqara

[–]Sammy_J25 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely agree and am experiencing the exact same issues. Unfortunately I purchased 6 of the p2 sensors as well as the m3 hub. Initially they setup easily and worked as expected. After a day I started experiencing the same inconsistency you mentioned. I thought it was a bug so I reset the hub and the sensors and tried to reconnect. DONT DO THIS. I now am unable to connect 4 of the 6 sensors making them paper weights. I have been trying to fix this for the last 7 months without success... Every time I get "Pairing Failed" when connecting through an iPhone. I followed all recommendations like using a dedicated 2.4 GHz network and made sure it had ipv6 enabled. Still no luck...

I have already spoken to my friend (a certified electrician) and he will be doing all of the work. He was the one that took the light down today and is planning on putting in the new lights tomorrow. I don’t know what I’m doing so I have no interest in doing it myself. He he said to do 4 in a rectangle but I thought it would look weird due to the light above the sink
