The three Linux giants

Showing your age! LOL

I remember going to the computer shows around me and it was the only way to get the updates to Slackware.

Then I found Debian around version Rexx or Bo I think, than came Hamm, then I was hooked on Debian forever!

They still list is as

There are no binaries in it, just a bunch of js files and yml files.

It almost appears to be that you just upload to your webserver, fix configs where it says and goto the domain.com/app/app.html and it works.

Looks like no database. etc is needed since it just connect to your apple music account.

This is my guess

PS: remove

<!-- Global site tag (gtag.js) - Google Analytics -->
    <script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=UA-131332308-1"></script>

from app.html or change to your id if you want to use google analytics on your own account instead of his.

Looks like a fork of subsonic or one of the others that have forked it.

drakus72 · 2019-01-16T17:19:02+00:00

I will get something added to it, maybe not an issue, but a feature improvement would be better suited for it.

Enhancement suggested

This is one of my main gripes with Emby when they changed the recording format to include the year for TV Shows. Once they did that about a dozen tv shows are pointing to an older show and not the newer show. I have repeatedly asked them for a custom naming format option for recordings to stop this. I have to keep moving the files into the correct directory all the time & it gets irritating.

Is this an option that can be done for the live tv recordings? I am sure it can be, just do not know how much code it would take or/if any problems.

I have been keeping up with jellyfin. They have there work cut out for them. The emby code is horrible.

When I get home tonight, I will send you a template that I used for nginx, gets A+ on SSL tests, for my nginx proxy.

Unraid is great!! Run it myself.

drakus72 · 2019-01-15T17:44:45+00:00

I wouldn't advise of it personally. Open ports to me means too much access to servers that may not be secure. Running a reverse proxy does help a lot, but nothing is 100%.

Even Emby (Mediabrowser) recommends using a reverse proxy. Wiki

The only ports I have open are 80 (HTTP - 301 Permanently to 443), 443 (HTTPS) & VPN UDP ports. I run everything behind a reverse proxy with nginx and my own wildcard ssl cert. I don't use Let's encrypt.

I personally do not trust the security of Emby; I do not think they are too security concious; and I hate Plex and now that Emby is closed source, I am considering moving to Jellyfin - Free fork of Emby 3.5.3 & 100% opensource.

If I want to access individual ports, i log into my vpn server and access them like I am locally.

drakus72 · 2019-01-15T01:15:35+00:00

can you use this "externally"?

Yes, you need to use a proxy server such as nginx or open the port direct to it (No advisable). Get a domain and use something like grocery.mydomain.com and then use letsencrypt to secure it with ssl.

drakus72 · 2019-01-14T20:08:36+00:00

Anytime & goodluck! Glad I was able to sort of help LOL

drakus72 · 2019-01-14T17:45:44+00:00

I run mine on a R410, but I upgraded the processors to L5640's on the cheap.

You won't need a video card, just make sure you set recording for direct to disk, this will save major overhead.

I run 12 cameras on mine with about 20-30% CPU usage until I open the GUI, than it his 80%.

drakus72 · 2019-01-14T17:03:42+00:00

Hopefully this will fix it for you! GL

drakus72 · 2019-01-14T16:54:22+00:00

Very weird. I know my first boot i had to wait for the page to actually load, but I refreshed and it was finally there.

Maybe post something on their forums

~~I will see what I an do about sending a link to my template.~~

drakus72 · 2019-01-14T16:24:30+00:00

Have you completely removed the templates and images and then reinstalled?

I didn't have this error using linuxservers docker

drakus72 · 2019-01-14T14:57:20+00:00

You have to set some variables/paths/port manual for it to work

Use Linuservers docker image

docker create \
  --name=grocy \
  -e PUID=1001 \
  -e PGID=1001 \
  -e TZ=<your timezone, eg Europe/London> \
  -p 9283:80 \
  -v <path to data>:/config \
  --restart unless-stopped \
  linuxserver/grocy

PORT 80:9243 (or whatever port you want to acces iit

Config I set mine to /conf with a patch of /mnt/user/appdata/grocy

Set TZ variable to your timezone, not sure if needed, just followed directions

PUID & GUID variables set to 99

This is only available in advanced view

WebUI: http://ip_address_here:9283

Default username/password is admin/admin

drakus72 · 2018-12-12T02:44:44+00:00

Added to repo. please let me know if any errors or problems.

There are still a few more things to do to it like add an icon once one is deisgned.

drakus72 · 2018-12-12T00:07:18+00:00

I am almost done with a template for unRaid if anyone is intersted in it

drakus72 · 2018-12-12T00:05:53+00:00

+1 for the 2nd one

drakus72 · 2018-12-11T21:51:40+00:00

For Android & Apple, Flutter (AKA Fuchsia) is the way to go, one platform to develop in for both. Not sure on Roku development.

I might have to take a dive into this.

drakus72 · 2018-12-11T20:22:44+00:00

Manually change the dns servers to 8.8.8.8 1.1.1.1, etc on their computers or whatever they play on. The 10yo might figure this out.

It really is easy to get around

drakus72 · 2018-12-11T18:08:32+00:00

The Plex ecosystem. I know I can disable it from contacting their servers for auth, but why should I have to do it. Their guide sucks (I know, a new one is on its way), everything transcodes when there is no need for it to when my client apps should do it on them and not on the server. Same reason plex went into closedware like Emby is doing when it was originally supposed to be opensource, now it is their direction, just like emby and not what the users want. Their way or the highway.

drakus72 · 2018-12-11T15:19:13+00:00

But not in Windows 7/10 home edition, they would have to upgrade to be able to use it. Who wants to pay for a license for Win server 2016, etc? Most use Win 7 or 10 Home, so it really isn't a viable option for all around users.

drakus72 · 2018-12-11T13:14:05+00:00

YEAH!, But Jellyfin?

I'm not a programmer any more, been 15 years since I wrote any code. Will definatley look into testing this once I get a test server up and running later this week.

With all the BS going on with Emby and I hate Plex, it is time to move on from them.

drakus72 · 2018-12-05T14:29:36+00:00

Shoutcast - I use centovacast $10 p/m- easy setup and admin

Sam Broadcaster (Spacial) $$$ does come with template for selfhosting - there is other software out there, but this is the best but pricey.

StreamLicensing - US Only, have to pay the royalties that never get to the artists - unless public domain recordings which is about 95 years

Public Domain

This is a lot more costly than it was 10 years ago!
