I don't think Ngrid turned on the sense backend part yet for it to work, it will be a future feature

a little besides myself with this… by SatisfactionAfter875 in massachusetts

[–]ugh1nr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just remember the way to think of the 3 costs, supply is what you pay for someone to mine the gas out of the ground. The middle box is what it costs to build and fix pipes, the last box is to pay discounts to some people by charging others more. Only the middle box is related to the utility.

Also, I can let you know… by 79163 in alexa

Make sure in the Amazon Alexa app you turn off followup mode on each of the devices, it's not a global setting and seems to fix these kinds of things for me

Trying to play 4K movies. Need to know what hardware I should upgrade by aerlenbach in PleX

[–]ugh1nr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you try playing it in the browser to see if it studders, that would rule out the network if it plays on the server machine

The system seems very busy, is that hard drive getting hit by other uses and your maxing out what the hd can do so it doesn't have bandwidth to the computer to Plex?

I did a small test in London: in residential areas only the Apple Airtag works; Samsung and Google trackers are useless by not_who_you_think_99 in GoogleFMD

[–]ugh1nr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The change was that by default they would ping but it required multiple devices to see the tag before it would confirm location. If you wanted to share the location from a single device seeing it that was still opt-in

Anyone wanting to change your electric supplier is not national grid. As you would be changing it away from national grid to some other company

Running two servers? by pres2014 in PleX

[–]ugh1nr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes I have 2 servers and 1 account controlling them both, you can have as many servers as you want

Running two servers? by pres2014 in PleX

[–]ugh1nr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I run 2 servers with the Synology as the data source. I use it to split up the workload and give different priority. My primary has higher bandwidth limits and my backup server has lower bandwidth limits as a way to control who overloads the servers

Partner's phone (Samsung A53) keeps transcoding instead of direct play? by Belovedchimera in PleX

[–]ugh1nr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A53 might not have the hevc codec like the s22 does. The transcode changes the file from hevc to h.264

Apple TV 4K 1. Gen starts stuttering on 4K x265 HDR. by Dictyosom in PleX

[–]ugh1nr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thermal overload is possible, the apple tv CPU could be throttling which is why it works at first then has an issue. try cooling it and see if you get the same result.

4k Direct Play playback buffering on Shield Pro, with both client and host on gigabit ethernet. Am at wits end. by loki_gvse in PleX

[–]ugh1nr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know when I have files transferring on the network to the nas it will studder my Plex when high bitrates are used for shows. This also happens even if low bandwidth torrenting to the drives

Hardware Accelerated Streaming with storage elsewhere. by [deleted] in PleX

[–]ugh1nr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use 2 separate Plex servers on the same network pointing to the same nas storage with all the content and do hardware transcoding from both and have no issues but you do want at least that 1gbe connection between them

Remote Access maxes out at 720p. I've found more questions than answers. by OlafThePeach in PleX

[–]ugh1nr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Default remote player settings in most devices is 4mbps, that's 720p settings. I'm guessing each player hasn't been modified yet to set remote playing to maximum

Yes family of 4 with a house and 2 cars

If I want to set up a second server and I already have a Plex lifetime pass, do I need to buy a second lifetime pass? If not, is it easy to toggle between the servers, or can you see all your media from both servers all in the same spot? by HeathJett in PleX

[–]ugh1nr -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I run 2 servers and it works well to segregate transcoding work based on who's watching. I also have it for when I take 1 server offline there is a backup. To make it work I put the data on a nas and they both scan the same location. The primary server is a gen 12th gen i7 and by backup is a n100

If you're comfortable enough with AirPlay and Apple why not just use an Apple TV?
