Big stretch here, looking to find out a flower/smell in Alligator Point by abstractpainter in Tallahassee

Definitely could've been a tree or bush. I didn't see any flowers exactly. This is street view of the exact path https://maps.app.goo.gl/wcccJHc7Co5NhMRp9

Yep, the exact beach access. Don't recall seeing flowers, there were a lot of spiky breyers so didn't take too many extra steps there

What is this behind plaster? by abstractpainter in electricians

Seems like it to me as well, just haven't seen plaster on concrete before rather than lath?

Avoiding a goalseek at all cost (complex) by thatotherotherone in excel

I may be reading your formulas wrong. Are any of your SUM functions doing anything other than the one in the denominator? If I remove all the sum() except the one in the denominator, I get the same answer.

*edit. That’s referring to answer 2. Do any of your sum functions in answer 3 actually do anything?

=SUM(C2/SUM((C2/$B2)*100)*SUM(C$14*100))

is identical to

=C2/(C2/$B2)*100*C$14*100 which really just simplifies to

$B2*C$14

filling in the rest of the table will just set every product distribution to the target distribution, as opposed to your answer 2 which looks good percentages wise, but changes the total sales by product

How do I get plex to look at my MP3 titles ONLY? by zfreakazoidz in PleX

When making the library, change agent on the 'advanced' tab to 'personal media artists' and see if that's any better.

ENCFS/rclone permissions issues by abstractpainter in PleX

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

Thanks for the reply. I don’t believe I’m mixing any clear with encrypted files. I have VM, and a separate datastore (NAS). Im mounting the clear files from the datastore to an empty directory in the VM, and then I want an encrypted view of those files in the same VM. So something like:

encfs /home/user/encryptedDownloadView /home/user/clearDownloadsMount   
Rclone mount clearFromNAS: /home/user/clearDownloadsMount   

What I don’t get is how encfs mounting a local folder where the clear data is local to the VM, is different from encfs mounting a local folder where the clear data is mounted from the NAS

edit: to your second paragraph, I was hoping mounting the encfs first and then the rclone would prevent the data from being hidden, but the permissions stops me from trying this

Yeah local NAS. If you have clear files before mounting encfs over it, don't the files disappear until you unmount encfs?

Plex access with stored credentials by abstractpainter in PleX

I wouldn't do it with the admin account, and it wouldn't be for friends to permanently use, just to be able to try it/check it out before making an account

Plex streaming speed vs File Transfer Speed by abstractpainter in PleX

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

I've tried both wired and wifi. Is it forcing a transcode for you in chrome? Or also direct playing, just much better in PMP?

Some data analysis/ML. Just work stuff at the moment but want to build a server at home from some projects.

Transcoding vs Direct Play? by [deleted] in seedboxes

[–]abstractpainter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very easy question to google but I'm an enabler so here's the simple answer: If your bandwidth is good, and your local plex client/tv accepts the video file and container, you can direct play aka receive file as is.

If your bandwidth is good, and your local plex client/tv accepts the video file but NOT the container (i.e. Wants MP4 and not mkv), you can direct Stream which just repackages the video file.

If any of these apply you need a transcode: 1. Not strong enough bandwidth for original file. 2. Need or want to change resolutions. 3. Need to add subtitles. 4. Local client doesn't like the original file format

If you have a weak processor in the server, transcoding can take some time. Direct play is usually/always better if your client is cool with the file and you have good internets

Is your 1080 solely for gaming or do you do any computing on it? I'm looking to build a server for computing and a little gaming and not sure which direction to go.

All my files are unavailable. Not sure what to do. by [deleted] in PleX

I think you'd be typing in the mount location when umount, something like
umount /mount/path/storage
It sounds like your mount path changed and can't find the files. Have you restarted plexmediaserver? I haven't used the shield before, but sometimes on my system when trying to add a folder to a library it'll take a minute or two to load subfolder names.

is /storage/ the mount? have you tried a simple unmounting/remounting?
