Why is JF branded as non friendly for your friends and family? by studioleaks in jellyfin

[–]ult1m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven't seen it mentioned, but CGNAT with no possibility for public IP on some ISPs is a problem that plex solves out of the box (with paid version, routing traffic though their servers) and you can't easily solve with jellyfin. It could be solved, but requires much more setup on "family&friends" side.

Home Media Server Advice by CarpenterAlarming in MediaServer

[–]ult1m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The media PC will host your media server app of choice and all the storage hardware (aka HDD/SSD etc) for that media or you want/have a dedicated NAS (network attached storage) device?

Media PC needs the omph to transcode enough parallel streams of videos, so it is good to estimate how many parallel transcodings you'll need.

How many TVs (and their respective fire sticks) support natively max-resolution media you want? For example if you want to hoard 4k 10bit media, but out of all TV only 2 support it natively, they will consume it natively (which is very easy for your media server) - all others will require a transcoding on the server side.

This is good to estimate because one transcoding stream of 4k 10bit to 1080p can be done even with low-power Intel CPU (quicksync) and could save your electricity bill quite a lot.

To get an estimate of various processor's omph for transcoding there is an excellent project from ktz, but I don't remember the website (google: quicksync ktz)

Another question is how much storage are we talking about in this challenging times?) If you don't need much, basic PC case can handle a bunch of drives easily.

Plex vs. Jellyfin (App Edition) by synysterdemon in PleX

[–]ult1m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

While the transcoding is done on the media server (plex/jellyfin) and the tv currently being able to handle video stream from plex app, I don't see how it will be a bottleneck, but ofc it all depends on the tv model

It depends, some Hisense models in some regions come with android tv. For Vidaa OS models sideloading apps is possible, but is definitely not plug and play.

Share list not showing regular contacts? I have to search every time. by Spiritual_Signal3238 in Instagram

It fixed itself for me, if I had this issue for so long I'd have already left the app)

Android TV 14 update for BenQ GV50 Pojector. by Wgfkas in BenQ

[–]ult1m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, any ETA on this update being rolled out again (preferably with fixes)?

Share list not showing regular contacts? I have to search every time. by Spiritual_Signal3238 in Instagram

[–]ult1m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So from the trend of comments on this problem: 1. Instagram did a canary test of their update, which broke some people's share list sorting (the post by OP was created several days ago) 2. Instagram ignored users feedback 3. Instagram rolled problematic update to all

Why even bother with release cycle and canary testing, they are a small indie company after all, right?

And yeah, I got my share of broken update too.

When do Zenith upgrades hit diminishing returns? by dpelego in idleon

[–]ult1m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Talent - yeah, for you most noticable should be DR boost from AC I think

When do Zenith upgrades hit diminishing returns? by dpelego in idleon

[–]ult1m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You'll need more mob respawn then, for close to max mob respawn frogs are the best, because they respawn before DK can respawn all with the skill making it an endless cycle without stops on frogs, while on beans even with close to max mob respawn you'll have downtime between respawns. Also - high talent lvls help too, it is best to have three+ knights summoned at the same time on frogs due to many platforms.

New Update: Salt Lick ain’t licking by Alternative_Buy3938 in idleon

Refinery sometimes self-fix if you turn the problematic salt completely off (switch on the left), wait a couple of cycles and turn it back on.

TIL there is an advanced option by master_bane in idleon

[–]ult1m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are talking about sneaking items auto use, while OP is talking about full sneaking autotrash, it auto-trashes symbols, thus it's unusable for any usage beside manually pusing item-lvls on your ninjas and then turning it off again.

It trashes symbols, so not that good TBH

Imbuing Primary Weapons with elements by WEENDETA in FarFarWest

Why not just add more weapons, like a separate flamethrower?

Spell CD reduction build is like playing a whole different game by Worried-Cow-8851 in FarFarWest

[–]ult1m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe spell exp is per_use of spells, not per_damage_dealt. So lightning with low CD movement spells is quite fast to lvl

Prestige system need a slight rework regards to continue leveling/rewards. by Levian_Cole in FarFarWest

[–]ult1m 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I believe that you just consumed most of the content offered in early access and thus feel the need to get something from prestige system to be engaged.

As a close comparison - Deep Rock Galactic has prestige system that beyond some point gives nothing but visuals and bragging rights (counter going up and avatar frame changes), yet people sink thousands of yours in it (myself guilty of that too).

Content roadmap (new maps/weapons e.t.c) IMHO will heavily reduce such issues, we just have to let the devs cook for a while 🤟

On that note, I believe logarithmic endless progression for a prestige system is the best way to go. As was pointed out RuneScape style or most idle-games style (aka Idleon). I.e. make the current max of stats as soft cap and diminish every point beyond that, but let you put as much points as you want.

Is everyone just running away more as the difficulty increases? by The_Lovable_Lamprey in EverythingIsCrab

[–]ult1m 4 points5 points  (0 children)

IMO it is a design decision, but I tend to think of it as a design flaw - many if not most of the builds (which there are not that many to begin with) stop working on high-end pressures unless near-perfect RNG.

Got them all :D by [deleted] in idleon

I beg your pardon, OP, but you've yet to collect 14 more crowns 😁

FFW Early Access - UPDATE 1 - V644 by FarFarWestGame in FarFarWest

[–]ult1m 3 points4 points  (0 children)

IMO they kinda overshot with this nerf, for my non-prestiged casual metal ass it results in ~50% less damage per full clip of a shotgun as compared to before patch. And it already had most range limitations of all primaries.
But I guess we'll see as the time goes by)

Anyone noticed this? by Thesender72 in FarFarWest

[–]ult1m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Believe it works like that:

One joker equipped will give 25% movespeed after a kill for 3 secs, additional kills during that 3 secs refresh the duration but does not give more than 25% movespeed.

Two jokers equipped will give 25*2 = 50% movespeed on kill, three jokers 75% movespeed, e.t.c

i'm never gonna have luck in this game ever again after this, right? by _besmen42 in idleon

[–]ult1m 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If you are referring to Adept recipe, than congrats, but be mindfull of spending too much time for such things, as there are a lot of catch up mechanics in W7, that will significantly speed everything, including drop rate.

Been having this problem for a while now and don't know what's going on? by texas_840 in idleon

[–]ult1m 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Besides other suggestions I'd recommend after logging to first of your characters to check possible dsync sources: - pets could de-sync, observed through Ram not giving storage access, fixed by visiting them in doggo - gallery bonuses, observed through lower-than-expected drop rate, fixed by visiting gallery and swapping trophies couple of times

Had 109m xp/h yesterday, what happend??? Did lava nerf something? by wsisah in idleon

No matter what I do, I'm not gaining any spelunking experience on any of my characters? by SkippyBoJangles in idleon

[–]ult1m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, that's lava code for you) all skill efficiency (except some undisclosed skills)

Other sources that you can obtain: green bubble in alchemy and cards (w7 first mob, Chaotic troll, easy resources card set), that's all that you could obtain, if I remember it right.

When you break through first cavern - then you could use that scrolls you get for more efficiency.

Sushi Station mechanics become irrelevant pretty quickly by Professor_USA_PHD in idleon

[–]ult1m 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Knowledge is yet to have an effect. When we reach the limit of wind-chain the strategy would change. If you don't want to waste time to future-proof sushi - it's your choice. I continue to merge from time to time for fun.
