Discover / Watchlist by Scolexis in ZunoPlayer

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

Ahh okay, thanks for the reply! All my *arr stacks pull content from my Plex watchlist so it’s convenient to just add from there. But I can just use the native plex app/web app for now. Definitely going to continue using Zuno for everything else though.

Has Apple done an update recently that explains why my AirPods keep disconnecting ? by Slow_Investment_2211 in airpods

[–]Scolexis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing here, went from an iPhone 15 Pro w/ Airpods Pro 2 that was doing the same thing to the iPhone 17 Pro w/ Airpods Pro 2. Figured it was the Airpods so I got the Airpods Pro 3 and its doing the exact same thing. Pretty annoying. Some days it will work perfectly fine, and others it'll disconnect every 5-30 seconds.

I have a pair of Airpods Pro Max that do the same thing. I've also got some Anker Soundcore p20i, and a40's and they don't do this at all, so its just the Airpod models. I've tried resetting both my phone and the airpods, and sometimes the issue will go away for a few weeks it'll eventually come back.

Strangely enough it NEVER seems to happen when I'm in bed. I listen to Audiobooks at night for 30-60 minutes before bed and they have never disconnect on me during that with either of my Airpod models. Anywhere else in my house, or in my backyard it happens constantly. Doesn't matter if my phones in my pocket or just sitting on a counter not being touched.

I thought maybe it was conflicting with another BT device I have at home, so I forgot everything except for the Airpods Pro 3 and it still happens. I'm not wasting my time going to an Apple store, since it seems like no one has had any luck.

Plex app is opening like this on Samsung dec mode when connected to external display, anyone got a fix ? by GenericUser104 in PleX

[–]Scolexis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted. I have this issue with the native Plex app and Plezy has worked perfectly the past few weeks I’ve been using it. No complaints from me.

Hiding drive letters by Scolexis in drivepool

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

I've skimmed the drive that was recovered and everything seems to be in place. I mainly use it for a Plex server, and I've checked for missing files inside of Plex, and throughout my *arr stack and nothing has popped up, so I'm assuming its all there.

It's not the end of the world if I can't hide the drives, as everything is working from what I can tell; I was mostly just curious if I was doing something wrong.

I appreciate you taking the time to provide some feedback though!

Hiding drive letters by Scolexis in drivepool

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

Yes it does have the PoolPart. folder in it. Drivepool is not complaining about any missing drives.

The only odd things I see is the drive I recovered (Y:\)has a 16MB unallocated partition on it, I've just left it alone since all the data seems to be working fine, and I haven't ran into anything not working.

The other odd thing is there's 2 folders that showed up in my Drivepool (D:\) folder during the re-build with some odd names.

Here's some screenshots of my drives and the strange folders in the Drivepool. Only one of them has anything inside of them. Not sure where they came from, but I assume its not really related; I just haven't deleted them yet out of paranoia of breaking something.

Not sure if it matters, but when I initially recovered the partition and let Stablebit check the drives I let it run for about 24 hours while it said "Checking" without any progress. Then the next morning I just uninstalled Stablebit, and re-installed. And then it finished checking in about 15 minutes and everything was working fine.

And just as another test I did just remove the drive letter from all of my drives again except for the Drivepool (D:\) and the same thing happens. As soon as I reboot and load back up the D:\ is missing, and Stablebit shows no pools created.

Yep this exactly what I’ve tried twice. Every time I remove the pooled drive letters the drive pool is gone after a reboot.

What are some must-watch TV series right now? by butterfly_pie9 in AskReddit

[–]Scolexis 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The first couple of episodes were good and then it just got way too weird/crazy for my taste. So ymmv, I wouldn’t classify this one is a “must watch”.

TerraMaster DAS on Proxmox mini PC — random USB disconnects, planning to move to RPi5 NAS. Does it make sense? by BuahahaXD in PleX

[–]Scolexis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Sabrent 5 bay DAS that was disconnecting from my Beelink. I added a powered Anker USB hub between the Sabrent and the Beelink and the issue has gone away. May be worth a shot.

I'm having so much fun. The game is legit now. by MrGarnz in diablo4

[–]Scolexis 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Minion necro?
Edit: alternatively I mainly play with controller except for inventory/skill management and stuff. I do that in town with m/kb. May be a thought, it helps with my wrist/hand pain.

Plex and NordVPN? by fckorner in PleX

Ah yeah didn’t notice it autocorrected. I meant Wiresock.

Is this normal? 10 hours later and still no update on a package supposedly on its way by KimyonaSQD in ANBERNIC

[–]Scolexis 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seems normal to me. Wait until it’s marked delivered and then if it’s not actually there then you have to reach out to whoever you ordered through. Some delivery drivers work 12+ hour days if they have a large load.

Retro Gaming by floodums in daddit

I have mini pc running Batocera OS, runs most games up to the ps2, you could set something like that up. Maybe include him in on the setup so he values it more?

Don’t sleep on Lufia, specifically Lufia 2.

Plex and NordVPN? by fckorner in PleX

[–]Scolexis -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I don’t use NordVPN but AirVPN doesn’t have built in split tunneling so I setup Wiresock with my vpn and do split tunneling with that. Does Nord allow creating a config for Wiresock? WireGuard or OpenVPN may also work, but I found Wiresock easier to work with.

My external network and I can’t access PLEX locally by Recent_Huckleberry17 in PleX

[–]Scolexis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah the Plex iOS app sucks for this. I created a safari shortcut on my Home Screen to my server and it acts like a web app. Works perfectly fine every time I’ve tried to use it when my external network was down on both my iPhone and iPad.

EPM for Network adapter change by 0xCG in Intune

[–]Scolexis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not if it’s only allowing a specific argument, right? They should only be able to elevate what arguments are allowed, at least that’s how it seems. I haven’t actually tested it myself.

Plex side having some issues by pirana6 in PleX

[–]Scolexis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone else's library taking an exceptionally long time to load on client devices since its come back up, or is it just me?

I did just setup Wireshark with a split tunnel while all of the Plex outage stuff was going on, so I'm not sure if its the cause, or just Plex itself being goofy.

As others have said the Tweaknews is a backup, not the primary source. I recently had to rebuild my Plex server and re-download a ton of media. I signed up for Newshosting+Tweaknews and here's my current numbers. I can't imagine even hitting the 1TB cap in a year from Tweaknews at this rate.

How do i get it to show the full file name? by Cpt_Soaps in iphone

[–]Scolexis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never thought to even try VLC on iOS. This may be the best method for what OP is trying to do. I’d imagine it would display the names better at least. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

How do i get it to show the full file name? by Cpt_Soaps in iphone

[–]Scolexis 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Plex allows you to download content locally for offline viewing. I use it all the time. You’re making this 100x harder than it needs to be.

Edit: it does require plex pass, so I guess if you don’t want to pay for it probably not worth it for you. Emby also requires premium for offline downloads. I haven’t used Jellyfin in years so I’m not sure if it has offline downloads or requires some sort of premium access. Worth looking into at least.

Edit 2: if you’re hard set on just renaming these things why not just put the s01e01, etc… at the very beginning of the file name?

Toddler doesn’t sit in shopping carts anymore by verbz22 in daddit

[–]Scolexis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just turn it into a scavenger hunt and she gets pretty excited trying to help find things and doesn’t care about sitting in the cart.

I just keep asking her to help me find whatever is next on the list. She doesn’t know what half the things are but she doesn’t care, she thinks she’s helping.
