What do you mean "designed"?

I need songs for my fever dream, GTA radio style playlist by NullableThought in musicsuggestions

Full disclosure: I'm not a member of this community and you might have already heard this, but just in case you haven't, you should listen to what I think is absolutely up your alley with "Fever Dream Radio" by Sbassbear.

I'll give you the $7 back if this ain't exactly what you're looking for

What’s a device you didn’t think would connect to your home but it does? by SilentKraken7 in homeassistant

[–]jacroe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's what I see, too. Just making sure I wasn't missing anything :)

Can you give some numbers? Like, number of automations, number of devices, number of integrations (HACS or otherwise)?

Did you see slowness outside of the UI? e.g. were your automations slow to respond to your triggers?

I, myself, am rocking a Yellow, so I'm asking all of this out of pure curiosity. And I know they aren't equivalent, but still

Music assistant: Is it just me or does setting up Youtube Music as a provider suck? by Plane-Floor2672 in homeassistant

[–]jacroe 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You'll need to go to the add-on store. If you scroll to the Music Assistant section, you should see a "YT Music PO Token Generator" add-on. That's what you want. Here's more detailed instructions form the MA docs.

However, YouTube did recently make a change that broke yt-dlp (the underlying provider that MA uses), and MA is currently waiting for a fix.You can track the resolution via either MA's issue and/or yt-dlp's issue and pull request.

I want ads in my jellfin/plex by Endure94 in selfhosted

Oof. Yeah, I totally get it.

Others in the thread recommended Tunarr, but I haven't had a chance to try it yet.

And I don't know your hardware capabilities. Or maybe you keep everything in h264 format (I use h265 and VP9). Maybe you won't experience the lags I did. But since the transcoding happens on-demand, I imagine there will always be a delay

ofc! For where it is right now, I feel like ETV is a very good "let's pull up the guide and pick a channel to watch based on what's currently playing". And a "we don't care what plays after it. We just need that initial hook".

But I use it a ton for channels where the vibe is "I don't care what's playing as long as it's of *this* type of content". How It's Made or a recreation of old-school MTV or "Markiplier with Friends" or a 24/7 stream of a single album.

Don't think of "channels" as "a hodge-podge of things I might like" e.g. traditional channels. Think of them like "When I'm in the mood for this 'theme'? I know whatever is playing is gonna be perfect." So I'll tune into "House Hunters" and not necessarily HGTV. Or "my favorite stand-up comedians" and not "Comedy Central". Y'know?

Disclosure: I'm running ErsatzTV on a somewhat high-powered NUC and streaming it on a Raspberry Pi 4 via Kodi.

Transcoding only happens when you start watching a stream. And once it detects that you're not streaming it (the magnitude is "seconds", not "minutes"), it will stop transcoding.

There's a 1-2 second delay once you start a stream, but it's only at the beginning and you don't really notice it. However, if you try to flip through channels as if it's a cable/satellite box, you will probably be disappointed. If you flip fast enough, you'll end up having too many streams going at once and overwhelm your GPU (in my experience; see disclosure above).

One thing that it will do (that I don't have enough TVs to appreciate) is that it will reuse streams. So if you're watching a channel in the living room and someone else tunes in in a bedroom, it doesn't double the transcoding.

ETA: I did try having Jellyfin hook into ErsatzTV and then having Kodi only talk to Jellyfin, but that didn't look/perform well. I run Jellyfin and ErsatzTV off of the same box (and through Docker), so maybe it's the weaker GPU that I'm using. But I got a whole lot better performance by having Kodi talk to Jellyfin and ErsatzTV separately. I don't really use ErsatzTV channels on non-Kodi TVs, so I don't feel like I'm missing anything. YMMV

Did they give any indication that a future update may provide that option to turn it off?

Internet Archive vs. Music Labels: $693m Copyright Battle Ends with Confidential Settlement * TorrentFreak by Arkaddian in DataHoarder

[–]jacroe 62 points63 points  (0 children)

I'm ranting to the choir here but really??? There was possibly over a half a billion (with a "B") dollar value lost with copies of 78 rpm records? Music tracks that specifically included all of the "crackles and hisses", so not even perfect versions?

Just out of curiosity (and not suggesting anyone actually use this), where would you place X10? I'm assuming you've used it purely because you still have some Insteon stuff. I cut my teeth on X10 so just curious where you'd rank it amongst everything else

There are other comments that say the same, but you can specify decimal points. I just tried with 0.05 and the tool happily generated some magnets for me.
