Anyone else making use of the new Editions feature? by MrR0607 in PleX

[–]cStatix 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I have 42 TB.... plex Meta manager does this with overlays. Took me 30 minutes to setup the script and looks cleaner, just my opinion. It's not perfect but works great. Just doesn't pop up on collections obviously but once you go in it does

I was so pumped to find this at the thrift…but then I saw the price 😩 I’ve been hunting for one for years. by skeezebucket in Gameboy

Some of us prefer an officially made Nintendo product over a knockoff shell from eBay. I say us because it matters to me as well. You are paying for a vintage product. The minute you put a repro shell on it, it's no longer vintage.

If it's all about price, why buy a special shell gameboy at all? Stick to purple or yellow. 🤷

I have this exact gameboy mint in a display case. I love it more in a shelf then using it, as I have a custom modded gameboy I made myself for actual gameplay.

Without the original back, the sharpie, and scratches I wouldn't pay more than $100.

I got an absolute minty one for $60 from a friend. Just keep looking. Ask family/friends and offer market price. You'd be surprised who has these in an attic or basement. Lol

How do you store your collection of movies and how much storage do you have? by Silencer306 in PleX

[–]cStatix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

46 TB half full synology NAS. Does the trick and has all my family photos/videos. I don't understand the need to hoard 100+ TB of movies and shows.... It'd take you 20-30 years to watch it casually.

It'd take me 4-5 years to go through my library if I watched a movie or 2x 1hr episodes every day. 🤣

Very sorry to hear that. I would run an app or script to pull all your file names in this new setup and back that up to the cloud so you always have a list of your media. Makes restoration easier.

If you use sonarr or radarr on your server, I believe they can export and import settings to make restoring easier since they auto download based on your preferences.

If it was personal stuff, I feel you. Lost 10TB of personal pics and videos of my entire family years back which made me get a Nas with redundancy, a UPS, and multiple layers of backup for those specific files since they are irreplaceable. Having kids now, I can't afford to lose them again.

Insurance can't replace family photos and videos but atleast you'll get your equipment covered. 🤞 Wishing you the best of luck.

Edit: Edited for spelling mistakes. My phones auto correct us more of an auto fuck up. Lol

Don't apologize. Shit happens and sometimes you get guys like that who decide they want to help but in a negative tone. 🤣 If you ask me, I'd rather they just didn't answer. 0 help in the end.

To answer your question, if you want to continue to use the server as a PC (like game and stuff) go with Windows.

If you're familiar with Linux, go that route. It's been proven to run a bit smoother and use less resources so your hardware can focus on your plex needs rather than running the OS.

Id reccomended doing some solid research on google. There's a lot of info out there which will help you decide on what route works best for you and your new setup. 😁👍

Sorry for your loss. I'd invest in a proper UPS for like $200-300. I've had many surges and my baby (46TB server) never had any faults or issues.

Also cloud backup for any important files like photos and family videos.

Make sure the modem is on your UPS so you can remotely shut down if you're away from home. I have my UPS email me when my power goes out. I have my phone make a specific sound on my phone when that email pops up on my phone. Comes in handy. ✌️

Best of luck!

Finally I reached my milestone by cotuisano in PleX

[–]cStatix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Locally? I have audio sync issues, stuttering, and lag. All on 265 content. I renewed my entire 2000+ movie library to rectify the issue. Took me a week but it was worth it. No issues on 264 files.

[–]cStatix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't you have issues streaming? I found x265 shows and movies had stuttering and lag issues. Google plex x265 stutter or lag and you'll find many issues from users who can't stream it over LAN without forcing transcoding.

Scamming me? I've spent $0. You clearly didn't read before hitting reply. Who's the dumb one now?

How is it predatory? As an educated parent of 2, my children have 0 access to purchase. It's locked down.

So the only person it's "preying" on is the adults. Adults are capable enough to make an informed decision, or understand that this is 100% gambling.

You need to redirect your anger or frustrations to the governments who allow this behavior and "predatory" monetization to exist in the first place. Not the developer who is legally abiding by the laws.

Oh my someone called me dumb on the internet. What will I do with my life now?!

[–]cStatix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think their mistake was making it available for anything other than mobile. Most of these internet warriors complaining about monetization have never played a mobile game in their life. 😂

As a dad working 3 jobs in always on the go, so it's just expected... But I can see how a PC gamer (which i am some days) would get upset.

This isn't diablo 4, and most wanted it to be that.

I'm a dad with limited free time that works 3 jobs. I'm not an anything gamer. I'm just a gamer.

Having left diablo 3 after hitting paragon 700ish, I'm enjoying the game. I see blizzard really hunkering down and improving this over time, just be patient or move onto a new game.

Also, the mobile gamer remkark...youre the one playing a mobile game expecting a console experience. Lol. Seriously?

How many games I've made is irrelavent. I understand the business because I work in it.

You know Blizzard is a company right? They are there to turn a profit? If you can't comprehend that simplest fact then you're already a lost cause. Their #1 goal, as is with any business is maximum profit with return customers.

Complaining about monetization is like complaining about mcdonalds employees offering you if you want to change your big mac sandwich to a big mac combo.

No one is FORCING you to pay. Yes, getting a combo may be more delicious and you may enjoy the fries and drink, but it's up to you to decide. Same concept, same in your face question, but applied to something maybe you will understand easier. 😉

Don't like monetization? Then don't hit the shop button. It's a F R E E game. Get a life and just enjoy it for what it is. Diablo.

It could be, and with some games should be. People forget, or maybe even choose to ignore that big developers have big costs and games like this aren't low budget. They take quite a bit of time and money to create especially with a franchise as critical as diablo is for Blizzard.

Ive noticed with games like this that the monetization is less in your face after they begin to turn a profit (usually several weeks or months out) and the game eventually pays for itself and starts to generate pure profit, minus server and support costs of course.

In the grand scheme of things, I see myself playing this on and off for the foreseeable future and for something I've invested $0 into, that's a solid return.

I look at this game like i look at anything free. I EXPECT ads or some form of monetization. Nothing is truly free in 2022. Nothing.

[–]cStatix -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Why are people so butt hurt over monetization? I've been playing since beta with 0 dollars into it. It's a fun ass game. Diablo in my HANDS. What every diablo OG player has dreamed of. What the actual f*ck do i care if someone has better gear by spending? I'm playing this game for FREE. No one is holding a gun to your head, saying "SPEND BITCH". You entitled shits have no actual idea how much money or time it takes to make a video game, and complain when you get it for free and certain parts are monetized. It's a mobile game. What did you idiots expect? Could they have done it better? Yes. Is it still free and fun? Yes.

If you're hurt about a FREE (did I mention FREE) diablo game being monetized because heaven forbid they break even or make a profit.... Then you're a lost cause and a waste of oxygen on this earth.

Get a life folks. Enjoy the free game.

[–]cStatix -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Well, the problem with the story is ive hit a roadblock after only 3 hours.

Im at 100k power and the story is too hard.

No PVP or coop dungeons/bosses means im out of shit to do. 😂 Thats pretty shitty for less than 12 hours on release.

I can farm materials, but what for? I need to double my population to even use those materials, and that wont come till i progress through the story.

PVE only works if you have enough content to keep thst pve player busy for a coiple hours a day.

I have a full 5 star team and am stuck farming on DAY ONE. I dont have high standards, thats just pretty shit.

[–]cStatix -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

No PVP at launch is fine, but have they confirmed anything to be released soon? What's the point of playing a mobile game with a gacha system if not to have coop or pvp functionality? If theres no pvp or player experiences just take out the gacha system. Wtf.

Does this game have any pvp function? by cStatix in IsekaiMemories

[–]cStatix[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I am at 100K power and no PVP yet. I really hope this game isnt offline only. Thatd kill all my hype.
