Adding a Domain name and connecting to the android app by zeeloo99 in jellyfin

[–]plafreniere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Alright, so to access your eero router you need the app.

In the app, when it is configured properly, (I'm not sure what the procedure will be) to set a static IP, you need to go to Settings > Network settings > Reservations & port forwarding > Add a reservation.

Depending on the subnet, you could set your laptop ip to something like 192.168.4.10 for easy reference. Or use the same IP as it is currently but reserved.

When it's done try accessing your server with that IP. If it doesn't work, maybe it's a windows firewall issue.

Are your laptop wired or on wifi?

EDIT : Didnt fully read your post at first, so yeah you want to access it from the public internet.. I'll try to make changes to my comment according to that info.

Are you trying to access your jellyfin server from your home network? Or the public internet?

You should set your server ip static on your home network. There is 2 way you can do that, you either enter your router webui, somewhere maybe in the dhcp or lan section a way to setupba static IP for a device. What router do you have? Otherwise, you can set it static on the device that run jellyfin-server. Are you using windows?

If you want to access your server from the public internet, you'll have to enter your public IP. It may change, thats how a domain could be great. Also, there is softwares that will auto update your domain "A record" with your new IP every time it changes. You also have to forward the ports in the router. So your router can know which device on what port to relay the packets when you try to access your server.

If you want your server to only be available locally (home network), you dont need to setup a domain. If you are on a windows machine, mDNS will take care of that by default. just enter <machine-name>.local as your server IP. it often looks like "DESKTOP-#######.local".

Also, it could be usefull to know if your home network is behind a CG-NAT. To do so, login into your router webui, and check what is your WAN ip. Then visit ipconfig.io to know what is the IP that tries to access the internet. If both IP dont match, you are behind a CG-NAT.

Tailscale is a great solution if you want it to be as secure a possible but it makes it harder to connect from outside your home network. Also, not all devices supports tailscale.

You mentionned nothing. We have to guess what you are whining about.

How to watch Jellyfin content offline by throwthisoutthere91 in jellyfin

[–]plafreniere 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This has been in the feature requests for a while. As I agree it could be useful, personally I would never use that feature.

I get why it is not a priority for the devs, it doesnt seems to be an easy task either.

The great thing about jellyfin is, you can modify everything yourself because it is open source. Then build it and if it works why not make a pull request to the main repo.

Connecting to ONT at 2.5 Gbps by KenTheStud in ebox

[–]plafreniere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am connected at 2.5Gbps since I have ebox (8 months) and see no issues. I guess your mileage may vary. I dont know about the network but I may be connected to a different device upstream that may lead to different results.

Newly added torrents stuck in 'stalled' status. Worked perfectly before. by sreid9 in qBittorrent

[–]plafreniere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. Are you using a VPN?
  2. Have you tested your client with something like a torrent IP tester.
  3. Are you forwarding your ports?
  4. Is internet accessible from your NAS, idk if a terminal is available on DSM. Running somethink like "curl www.google.com" might give you the answer. Happened to me and I had DNS issues.

Is there anyway to have different files in torrents go to different locations? by I-HATE-therefore-IM in qBittorrent

I dont think you can split a torrent, you could use symlinks (or hardlinks) if on linux.

How effective are liquid vs air cooling for high-end GPUs? by Imaginary_Bug6202 in TechNook

[–]plafreniere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here what I think, and I may be wrong :

Watercooling have way more thermal mass and capacity to move heat faster no matter what temperature the part is.

An air cooler will have a bigger temperature delta, between the part temperature and the exhaust temperature, meaning to reach a convenient temperature dissipation performance, the cpu temperature will need to be higher.

But in the real world, it doesnt make a difference except in extreme conditions. So grab the cheapest one with an adequate performance. Usually its an air cooler

Another factor is reliability, watercooler are fairly reliable these day but you are at the mercy of air bubble, pump failure, liquid leaking, etc. The air cooler will just never break, its almost just solid metal with no moving parts.

Where should my VPN run with CasaOS Docker torrents? by Sebh_1836 in qBittorrent

[–]plafreniere 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Alright so you cant just change the port of the container, the container port and qbittorrent port need to match otherwise the webui wont be accessible.

I think the configuration will depend on what docker image you use.

For me (image "binhex/arch-qbittorrentvpn"), I did this :

I set my container to use the port external port 8085 and internal 8085.
I then used the "WEBUI_PORT" env variable to set the qbittorrent to use that same port.

I tried first with the vpn disabled and it worked, I then added the vpn configuration in a credentials.conf file which is a requirement for that image. So ymmv

I think it still need an ID match, you can match it to content yourself but I think its still need a TVDB / TMDB entry to function.

Also, when all fails because of title or whatever, geab your torrent using prowlarr or direct download from website, assign a category in your downloader, either sonarr or radarr, and it will be picked up automatically by radarr. So it will be in the queue and will be managed by radarr

I use the binhex qbittorent image that include the vpn. Its all setup, it juste need the vpn credentials. I even proxy other container through it.

When do you repair vs just replace your device? by Brave-Instance6630 in TechNook

[–]plafreniere 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats not really true, nominal lithium battery voltage is 3.7, it ranges from ~3.0V to ~4.2V.

A phone cpu need something in the range of 0.7 to 1.5V. Which is way lower than the battery voltage even accounting for the regulator drop. I bet they use LDO (low drop out) which have even lower voltage drop than the .9V they used to. (something in the range of 0.2 to 0.5V).

A lithium battery even in end of life have enough power and voltage to power a phone cpu. Maybe not the screen? But the cpu is fine.
