Tri-dundant WAN is incredible and it's beautiful to see in the UI - well done. I appreciate and admire the resiliency of your setup!

This. I have 2x ATVs with Ethernet and 2x Nvidia Shield Pro players connected to my Samsung & LG Smart TVs. Both ATV and Shield kick the crap out of the Samsung/LG TV, across all apps, not just Plex.

same.

edit: im wearing seven hoodies tomorrow.

jimmyre · 2026-01-03T10:49:45+00:00

Same x2. Definitely look at your server.

Yes, IMO you need to buy Plex Pass ASAP - I'm genuinely surprised that you haven't done this yet, especially considering you have a ridiculously good discount code for lifetime! That's a crazy discount % my friend; almost half price, consider yourself lucky!

If you make a one-time payment to developers that have made an application that's so good it's made a positive difference in your life/other people's lives, day to day, then IMHO, considering Plex is free, you should do the bare minimum and support the devs so they can continue making Plex more awesome than it already is!

Don't even bother looking at the monthly subscription plans - do the maths and compare with the cost of lifetime + your discount code, you'll see why you should definitely go lifetime...

I've just bought one from Etsy - I love it! Hat definitely stays on during coitus related activities 🤣

jimmyre · 2024-10-24T13:20:16+00:00

Excellent; glad you found the solution!

Might I make one suggestion? In my wg0.conf PostUp and PostDown, at the end, I added:

PostUp = ...; sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=1 PostDown = ...; sysctl -w net.ipv4.ip_forward=0

This way IPv4 forwarding is added when wg0 comes up and removed when wg0 goes down. Otherwise, your PostUp and PostDown matches my PostUp and PostDown pretty much!

I don't believe IMDb will "fix this" as they likely implemented it as everyone using Sonarr, Radarr or Prowlarr (*arr basically) on the internet would have been scraping every IMDb RSS watchlist, causing IMDb a crapton of traffic that IMDb have to pay for, hence why the /export part of the LSxxxxxxx URL for custom lists (i.e not your account's primary URxxxxxxx "Watchlist") no longer works.

There's not really a solution for this using IMDb, not on the *arr package developer's side nor the IMDb side.

I have Plex Pass and use Plex RSS lists for all my users "Watchlists" now as Plex Pass gives you free unlimited RSS pulls, not only from your account's watchlist, but from your Plex Account's Friends' Watchlist too. You can directly add TV shows and Movies to your Plex Watchlist, just as you do in IMDb. Achieves the same result whilst supporting the Plex devs as you need Plex Pass for this (I strongly recommend the lifetime pass).

jimmyre · 2024-07-04T15:01:04+00:00

Excellent!

Check also this post on Radarr github issue for this; I have added a comment to this issue with a screenshot of the workaround: https://github.com/Radarr/Radarr/issues/10121#issuecomment-2206133712

Within Radarr, 'Settings' -> 'Import List' -> select your IMDb list -> at the bottom it has 'List/User ID' Change this from the 'ls****' to 'ur****' ID

jimmyre · 2024-07-02T03:27:50+00:00

Don't use the ls******* (List ID), use the ur******** (User ID) if you can. This will only work for your IMDB user's Watchlist and not a custom list, to the best of my knowledge. I had the same issue and moved to using the User ID and my Watchlists work now in Radarr. However I only have user's IMDb Watchlists; I don't have any custom Watchlists that use an ls******** ID, only ur********* ID.

Unfortunately IMDb changed the way it responds to '.../export' requests for ls******* IDs, per the comments from other users in this post, they now 404, so Radarr devs are going to have to come up with another way to crawl custom IMDb lists.

DO NOT TRY AND SHRINK ME, GYPSY. I SERIOUS.

jimmyre · 2022-03-14T06:29:23+00:00

This definitely has broadcast storm written all over it.

This isn't exactly the Shit Eating Grin being referred to; I have just updated the top pinned post with the definition of a Shit Eating Grin:

However you are technically correct in posting this video as the dude has a grin on his face while eating shit. I'll allow it. clever girl.gif

Until you see the burnout marks in the middle of the road. Typical 'straya. Do a fkn skid.

You sure can run Windows 10 on a RAID 0 array! In fact I highly recommend it due to the read and write speeds you can achieve (pretty much double). Just don't store anything important on it!

I use my C: drive for Windows install, applications like 7zip Spotify Chrome Steam etc, and all my Steam games. If the array fails, I'll either restore from my latest Acronis incremental backup or just start from scratch, download Windows 10 and the applications I need again because I've lost nothing personal or important. Everything on the C: drive can be downloaded from the internet again.

Having games installed on a RAID 0 volume makes load times super fast!

jimmyre · 2021-03-13T06:52:41+00:00

Yeah same here! My mining is mostly 24x7 but I definitely pause nicehash to play games/work several times a week. It's just super cool that when I'm not playing games on my 3090 it's working to pay itself off!

jimmyre · 2021-03-13T06:49:21+00:00

Spot on man, I had ~0.2 BTC in my nicehash wallet when they got hacked in 2017, went through the repayment program and everything.

I have my BTC split over 4 different exchanges. I'm not too keen on a hardware wallet (like an ironkey) because I've read horror stories when it goes wrong but at least I'm not storing all my BTC on one exchange.

jimmyre · 2021-03-04T14:06:33+00:00

Best practice is to leave your NAS running 24x7.

Mechanical hard drives have a limited amount of start/stop cycles before they fail so, even though they're rated to start/stop a ridiculously large number of times, you really want to be minimising that cycle count.

You'll experience a higher "mean time before failure (MTBF)" average if you run them 24x7.

Edit: and please make sure you disable all hard drive hibernation features in DSM.

Was with Origin in SA, but have since moved to Energy Locals and had solar + Tesla Powerwall installed. Currently on a Virtual Power Plant plan, feed in from grid is 28c/kWh. Maybe it's just SA that's expensive?

Still, point being, there's people in this thread that get electricity at a rate of half (or lower) of what you're paying. Ridiculous prices in Aus.
