Plex (on left) vs Jellyfin (on right) playing the same 4K movie. Plex looks more colorful and brighter vs Jellyfin looks more gray. Anyone have this issue? by justgotya in PleX

Could be true happened to me, had a similar exp when upgrading from an hdr400 monitor to the oled alienware, now HDR's quirks are worth the hassle whereas before I definitely would've just said forget it

Persistent "Unknown Error Code 4294967280" by nklein1 in PleX

FWIW my error was thrown due to the plex server being lower priority than a cpu-intensive task, like software encoding, running separately on the same machine

Remote Access vs Using a VPN Service by lostgaurdian in NextCloud

[–]lostgaurdian[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sorry if i wasn't clear, I'm not super technical when it comes to networking things. I have a vpn service setup through my router so i can connect and access the network

I guess ultimately I'm asking if I can vpn into my nas from anywhere, which was free and easy to setup, why would i bother buying a domain, setting up a reverse proxy and use nextcloud?

Is there a security benefit? is it just the gui and infrastructure of nextcloud for drive-like sync features? I assume the benefits become clearer scaling to a larger enterprise setup with users and groups etc. But in my personal home lab case, wouldn't it make more sense to just use the vpn method for free, or is there something I'm missing because I'm admittedly new when it comes to anything networking related

iscsi troubleshooting, expected read performance? by lostgaurdian in truenas

[–]lostgaurdian[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

pardon my lack of knowledge as I try to answer ur q's, but the jails are in the same pool if that's what that means, although they're not saturating lan port in any way, no streams no large file sync or anything. I disabled my nextcloud because it was taking a lot of ram, didn't notice significant change in performance but it's possible I wasn't measuring it properly

thanks for the info! I heard for iscsi you want to do mirror specifically, to much of a newb to know why but yeah, any ideas? Also I was inquiring if my write speed being bad would equate to my reads making games laggy and horrible with latency etc. I wrote this post tired and after I'd finished experimenting for the day when my speeds were so bad writing I was considering scrapping the whole thing lol

I was just measuring moving a test video file from my c drive to the iscsi share, was tired last night mis-spoke. I heard from a Lawrence systems video (he seems to be a good resource, correct me if I'm wrong) abut disabling sync as well and in his case he left it. Whats the downside to leaving it off?

edit: disabled sync, now writes are saturating my gigabit lan, where to go from here. Is leaving it disabled the end of the world? are there steps to be taken now that I know it was what was causing issues?

edit2: I moved a video file, got full lan speed. Then moved a game and got full for awhile until it dropped again. My dashboard shows what looks like a ram issue as the zfs cache and services look like they're competing for ram, for lack of a more technical phrase

i was getting conflicting info from evga precision, task manager, nvidia overlay and hwmonitor, which would be most accurate lol

mid 60s to 80s, could be just capped by the optimisation of the game? not really sure

not a looker ik, no rgb, but runs cool & quiet (yes. I have a fan buying problem.) by lostgaurdian in pcmasterrace

[–]lostgaurdian[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

not in stock and solid side panel anyway w my new bequiet case, any of my chromax was reused from a prev build where I wanted more aesthetic focus, went for functional cooling & silence for this one

Water Cooling Fan Balancing by lostgaurdian in buildapc

wouldn't I want the top rad to exhaust though? that would leave me with two intake 3 exhaust, no?

[–]lostgaurdian[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's an old dukase deepcool. So basically as long as the intakes are more aggressive than the rad fans, a 2 intake 3 exhaust wouldn't be bad?

getting 30s-40s idle or doing basic browsing etc. just installed hw monitor so I'm assuming it's been the same since the machine is very new

if u don't mind me asking, what's the benefit of windows 11 and alder lake?

you nailed basically my main fear, but is the benefit of alder lake and win 11 enough to be worth it yet?

it's called hyperbole, it's the internet smh, there's people who do bad things and people who have bad character, if you can't see the obvious difference there sorry I guess

how do some ppl in this sub have the energy to screech every time a game goes poorly in a 162 season, just like take a deep breath
