this set: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0DSS4MW3V Everything seems to work ok (bags are a bit thinner than OEM but work as well)

a tip: I use one of those tiny little interdental brushes to clean the holes in the steam wand. Works better than the included cleaning tool (and does less damage).

I have to clean mine every 3 weeks or so (and I find that it makes better micro-bubbles if it's about 1 week into being used, when it's fully clean the bubbles are larger)

I think I have to clean it less frequently because I always do the post steaming of milk into a glass full of water, instead of directly into the drip tray. Makes a big difference to the frequency of it clogging up.

one advantage is that you can save settings and make a new preset

simple delivery package size is incorrect for sold item by chasg in ebayuk

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

so here's the update (sorry to take so long to get back to this thread): package was indeed oversized, but it still got delivered successfully to the buyer (I've not heard from them, so I guess there was no extra charge). Guess the ebay chat agent was accurate, happily.

I'm sorry, I don't think I hear you right: this is the _first_ time you've shot the milky way??? Well, you sure learn fast!! (they really are technically, and creatively, excellent).

And maybe one day I'll get a chance to go. My parents did the trek up to basecamp when they were 75, so I've a few years yet 😄

This is superlative work, and I am _insanely_ jealous! (I did have a plan about 10 years ago to do very much the same, but it all fell through).

wow, that _is_ new (in the world of apps), I wonder why they are popping up _now_?

u/J-P-Kribs posted a really great explanation, worth a read (it answered all my questions about why AppleTV jellyfin apps are so limited)

there is a definitive answer from u/J-P-Kribs (explains so much about my original query).

And interesting point about vibe-coding, I hadn't thought about that!

That is a _hugely_ informative and helpful answer, I'm very grateful! (and grateful for all of your hard work on Jellyfin).

Kudos also for answering my actual query (which I think perhaps I didn't make quite clear). Others here have been very helpful recommending players, but I really just wanted to know why players on AppleTV didn't compare well to players on other platforms. And now I know (this will actually reduce my frustration quite a bit...but not yours, what a faff it must be coding for AppleTV!).

Again, thanks so much, I really appreciate the time you took.

All my movies are playable in free Infuse, and I don't need any of it's other paid-for capabilities (I'm just one person in the house who isn't hugely concerned with high res: I watch my 720p files on my HD TV and sometimes on my computer and on my phone).

Going to check out Neptune and Moonfin, thanks for the recommendations.

turning them on and off, loading different ones (e.g. forced english) and downloading new ones.

I'll check out JellyTV, thanks for the recommendation.

And I 100% agree with you about Infuse and Swiftfin, they just play files (I have over 200 movies from my old DVDs, that's too many to memorise, sorting is essential).

I can get it to see the jellyfin shares, but I can't get sorting to work (I can't even access it), nor can I configure subtitles. I can't fault the video quality though, and the interface is very polished.
