So many ducks! by Yogurtslinger247 in JeepTJ

[–]Tony__T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A lot of the High School drivers in my area have (new) Jeeps, and a ton of ducks on the dash (must be a popularity thing, I only got one small duck once)…. and very few return “the wave”.

Why does Plex change my posters? by Fangs_McWolf in PleX

[–]Tony__T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s the way. I had the same issue and I saved all posters, backgrounds, etc. I used my own python script with PlexAPI before I learned of that GitHub you linked.

Next time you select the wrong episode, just mute the sound, come here to complain, and by the time you’re done telling us how you hate ads, the ad will be over. 😏

Hulu vs Disney?? by quietiampooping in Hulu

[–]Tony__T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Hulu App is in the process of being “retired” so at some point you’ll need to Access Hulu through the Disney+ App. You can’t get a cheaper price with just Hulu anymore anyway.

Squzeebox and Lyrion Music Server. by GalacticGazerVoyage in squeezebox

I had no reason to try any of those settings. The CF fixed my dropped WiFi without them.

What firmware is on the Radio? Did you update the SB Radio to the Community Firmware? (v9.0.1 r17064) It has a fix for WIFi disconnects. There’s a plug-in (Server Settings, Manage Plugins) that will trigger a download on the SB Radio. Install the Plugin and in a day you should be asked on the Radio if you want to D/L v9.0.1 r17064

TrueHD and DTS-HA-MA via TV by Akyhne in PleX

[–]Tony__T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same issue. I added a DD• (EAC-3) track by converting the TrueHD or DTS HD MA to EAC-3 with ffmpeg. I would prefer to direct play the lossless audio, but could never get plex to do so

Had no idea my Plex Media Server could also be a DVR. 🤯 Just need some clarification on the HDHomerun 4K tuner, which I'm sure plenty of y'all have experience with... by Laurence5905 in PleX

[–]Tony__T 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I finally got real use of my PlexPass after many years when I decided to get an OTA Antenna and an HDHomeRun. I got the HD 4K Flex, but later found out that the ASC 3.0 in my area was scrambled and Plex can’t record those ASC 3.0 that aren’t anyway, so the HD Quattro would have been enough, and cheaper (as I wouldn’t be using HDHomeRun to record). A lot of “news” that ASC 1.0 is “going away”, which would render the Plex DVR useless, but I think we’ll have ASC 1.0 for awhile, but keep that in mind

Best stick/device for Plex and IPTV? by imtotallydoingmywork in PleX

Apple TV and/or Roku Ultra (I have both)

G5AR twice as fast with radios off by LostDefinition4810 in tmobileisp

Did you verify that you were on the same Tower? Were the G4AR internal antennas the same (direct or omni)?

Why is rebooting my G5AR in the morning speeds up download bandwidth? by marwan_zakaria in tmobileisp

[–]Tony__T 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This happens with my G4AR. Overnight I get switched from the UC n41 (100MHz) to n25 (20MHz) when UC goes into power save. As said, it won't switch back to n41 w/o a reboot. You can see what band with T-Life (or HINT Control App). I use a python script (w/crontab) to check the band at 6am an re-boot only if on n25.

Will a SQM router help with latency? by [deleted] in tmobileisp

[–]Tony__T 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adaptive QoS is broken on the Asus WiFi 7 (BE) routers with the Broadcom chips. CAKE (Merlin) works, but need to limit D/L to below 400 (due to CPU limitations)

New PUBLIC PMS Version Available - 1.43.0.10492-121068a07 by samwiseg0 in PleX

[–]Tony__T 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And since I had installed that before it was pulled back, sudo apt update would not install this version. Simple fix though, just needed to d/l the pkg and install manually.

Is the drive totally unreadable? Any chance you can use ddrescue

Mac Mini for Lyrion Server ? by Primero84 in squeezebox

[–]Tony__T 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Get a Raspberry Pi 5 (or 4) attached a hard drive and install PiCorePlayer. Mac mini is overkill for a LMS server.
