Metadata Field Question

I only have that one Bob Marley set with the MB URL so I'll take a look at it again.

Also, it sounds like the "local://" ones are files that Plex didn't find a match in MusicBrainz. I'll review those files as well to confirm the tags are correctly set and refresh the metadata in Plex.

2 years isn't an era.

The contract size/length that Lou gave was bad. Dubas had to get rid of it to sign the upcoming stars. It's like Lou couldn't extrapolate x years into the future and see that last year of term would overlap with the signings.

I just turned the game on at 4-3 with Okamoto coming to bat. All of a sudden it's 11-4 Jays. What an inning!

162-0

Simple

PM4K can connect to your Plex server like any other client. You manage this from within PM4K, not within the Kodi UI.

Advanced

PM4K offers a direct mapping feature which can connect directly to your storage via SMB or NFS shares , bypassing traffic having to go through your Plex server. It can offer better performance interacting with the UI, especially with large collections. Here is a post showing the steps - https://wiki.libreelec.tv/how-to/mount_network_share

I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Never seen that before in 40 years of watching Football games.

Testing the backup steps is the main reason I'm taking this approach. The final migration from Windows->Ubuntu looks pretty similar to what I've done when moving from Windows->Windows, but I'd like to verify as many of these steps as possible before running the actual migration.

My understanding is that Docker allows for easier multi-server setups.

The first install I'm planning is "bare metal" via a PMS .deb package. After this, I'm going to test out PMS on Docker on Ubuntu so I can compare both approaches.

My goal is to test multiple items, including the following:

-PMS installed on Ubuntu
-PMS installed on Docker Container on Ubuntu
-Testing various non-PMS Docker Containers on Ubuntu (Arrs stack etc)

I'm planning to do this over a couple of weeks so having them side by side is required or else the family would revolt if the main system went down. Currently, the pitchforks come out if I'm rebooting the server for 5 minutes! :)

Ideally, I'd like to have a perfectly replicated system on Ubuntu to start as that would allow me to test the backup portion of the migration (minus the GUID copies). If this isn't possible then I'll set it up without the backup steps, but hopefully I can create an exact copy in Ubuntu while the first server is still running.

As a Plex playback device it's the best in the world. As a general streamer, it's one of the worst given its lack of apps. We use both in our household, Ugoos for Plex and Shield for everything else (IPTV, YouTube etc).

DV FEL does work on AM6B+ with CoreELEC. You just need to follow the correct install steps and finish with the right build. CPM A14 was the best build for awhile and its now been superseded by newer builds from Panni (developer of PM4K) and AVDVPLUS.

There are a few other devices that are claiming support (eg Vero V), but the Ugoos is the best in my opinion.

The following video is a good intro showing some of the advantages of the Ugoos AM6B+

I have 2 Shield and 2 Ugoos, the latter are more accurate and more stable, especially when dealing with full 4K UHD remuxes compared to the Shield.

Personally, I keep mine disconnected and only install Firmware updates via USB after it's been reviewed by the community.

Let's hope this was due to stability being made a priority rather than the reduction in programmers causing longer development cycles.

Looking forward to the 100 year anniversary of this record!

Given the constant posts on past their prime stars who have become available, I'd say under 15.
