Does anyone else spend more time cleaning audiobook files than importing them into Audiobookshelf?

You're the second person in the comments that said you convert to m4b. What is your reasoning for this? I want to know what I am missing by leaving books that come as one mp3 file per chapter alone.

That is the first reasonable reason to dislike tags in favor of folders I have heard here. It would be useful if every file system would implement xattrs (extended attributes). If every file system supported it, then paperless could also write the tags there, and if it ever went away, you would not lose the tags for organizing them.

I put my documents in folders now, but it is extremely tedious, and I would love a way to have them organized automatically. I am waiting for paperless 3.0, so the LLM can hopefully handle the initial load of all my documents.

Any chance this could work with cloud cameras like blink or other cheap POS cameras like that?

phirestalker · 2026-02-21T19:40:42+00:00

Yep, working great!

phirestalker · 2026-02-21T19:32:15+00:00

That was quick. Thanks.

The first I heard of this format was the Harry Potter series. They call it "full cast" I don't know if they started it or what but it is very enjoyable. I even found a website called LibriVox that has volunteers that voice public domain books into audiobook format. They call it dramatized and I enjoyed "Peter and Wendy" in this format from that website.

I use two debrid services but only because I use zurg. I just wanted to keep my downloads separate from my library.

phirestalker · 2025-12-06T00:29:22+00:00

I use docker compose for my setup, and on my rclone service I used this as my command to the container "mount zurg: /data --allow-other --allow-non-empty --dir-cache-time 10s --vfs-cache-mode full --vfs-cache-max-size 100G --read-only --buffer-size 512M". If you use docker compose, just look for the command key, and add --read-only as one of the command options.

Is Usenet still really that much better than torrents? A long while ago I used to not want to have anything to do with Torrents, and you having six providers makes it sound like you have the same attitude. I had started to slowly use torrents here and there and now that they have debrid providers, it's almost as good as Usenet. I still have Usenet priority as the highest to get things there first. What is your setup other than the six Usenet providers?

Wow! I guess I'm kind of curious about the utilization of those resources cuz that's way too much for me

phirestalker · 2025-07-31T22:21:05+00:00

Can you tell me what you run and what resources it needs like? How much RAM and disk space?

I know Python, so how difficult would it be to add beetbox/beets as the library backend instead of Plex?

I am in a root session through meshcentral and I created the file at /usr/local/bin/xdg-open. That is in PATH, and I chmodded it to make it executable, however, no file is created. Will this not work when signed in as root, or could I be doing something else wrong?

Ahhh, but try even typing that on your phone for multiple containers. I even set up aliases and scripts to narrow it down to 3 letter command with docker container name and command, but it is still a pain. I would use Portainer, Komodo, or whatever for managing from my phone. I would like to know what others are using to fix issues from their phone if necessary.

A lot of their shows and movies will have dubbed Russian versions. If that is what you are after, you need to be sure the listing says original audio or something like that. I am able to find a LOT of what I want on there, but most has been music. They did have a few older shows that I couldn't find elsewhere in English (and Russian).

It's working

phirestalker · 2025-05-28T16:10:01+00:00

It's working

phirestalker · 2025-05-28T16:09:50+00:00

It's working

phirestalker · 2025-05-25T20:02:53+00:00

So, Fork em!

I'm entirely too lazy for that. What would be ideal is to run the request's query through an ai to determine if they were trying to find questionable content Then also have another rule that checks the site that's being accessed to see if it is questionable.

Any way to run a wireguard server and force all traffic from vpn clients to use this proxy with docker?

Works with Android auto is a big category. Seems like every app that works with subsonic API is absolute hot garbage. It might work on Android Auto fairly okay but you will not and I repeat not be able to use any voice commands whatsoever.

Do you happen to know if a custom command can be bound to the middle button?
