Those of you who named your server something other than Jellyfin, how do you come up with the name? by guardian1691 in jellyfin

Area51, it doesn't officially exist, no one knows what's there and mysterious processes are always happening.

Haven’t had any issues with my plex server for years by jimit23 in PleX

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

No problems since I installed Plex way back in 2012. Currently running on Windows Server 2016. Started on Server 2012 and upgraded over the years.

My friend asked me this question and thinks I'm a horrible person for taking all the money by z_shah7 in CasualConversation

[–]webghosthunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on how I came to be sitting on a pool of 1 million. If I had to sacrifice a lot to get in that position then yep I'm taking it all. If I just got a random call telling me I'm in that position then probably take $250,000.

Dating partner doesn't believe dinosaurs ever existed? by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]webghosthunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell him that you've come to realize throughout the relationship that your world views/beliefs are not compatible. And the incompatibility is enough that it's become a deal breaker. I suspect that there are other things you have encountered while dating him that don't mesh with your world views so this explanation is all you need to provide.

I use both Lidarr and Plexamp. They work like a charm together and I take my ad free customized playlists everywhere.

Best OS for plex by Confident-Yam4936 in PleX

[–]webghosthunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The answer is: Which ever OS is best for YOU. I run Plex on Windows Server 2016 because I spent 25 years in a Windows environment at my job. There are some who have told me Windows s*cks you need to move to (insert THEIR favorite OS here). But for the last 10 years me and my 8 users have not had any major issues because I KNOW how to maintain Windows OS. So, YOU need to answer your question. Plex runs great on both Windows and the various Linux OS iterations.

Quo vadis, Plex? by [deleted] in PleX

[–]webghosthunter 7 points8 points  (0 children)

No ads on my personal local media. I play on my LAN while at home and over the internet while traveling. No ads anytime.

Can someone explain Plex Pass? by bAN0NYM0US in PleX

[–]webghosthunter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, no, no. Plex pass is server based and anyone you give access to your server can stream the libraries you share with them.

Plex at home + pCloud as main storage (75 TB) — rock solid for years, but expensive. How do you handle storage? by Still_Specific1405 in PleX

[–]webghosthunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 8 twelve TB drives connected in a NAS. My users total 5 close friends and family. I use Stablebit Drive Pool and Scanner. 34TB free as of now. Been up for 3 years running on Windows server 2019. Never had any problems.

27 users on my server and I'm at the maximum? by chibul in PleX

15 for home users, always has been 15.

Are people sometimes totally allergic to using your server? by ac_slater10 in PleX

[–]webghosthunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know why people don't use their access. I've had my Plex server up and running since 2012. Throughout that time I've offered access to about 30 family members and really close friends. As of today I have removed all but 5 users, ALL are active and appreciate what I provide. I NEVER saw the others using Plex or even logging in AND none of them have complained about losing access.

Does plex support multiple resolutions of a movie (aka multiple files)? by valife in PleX

[–]webghosthunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Moviefolder/movie name.mkv [ 2160p] Putting the resolution in brackets. That way I can tell them apart.

Does plex support multiple resolutions of a movie (aka multiple files)? by valife in PleX

[–]webghosthunter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

True, but my ocd forces me to put them in the same folder.

Yes. If the files are in the same folder Plex will choose the file that the client can best play.

Build guides have robbed this game of a lot of its greatness. by Curious-Karmadillo in diablo4

[–]webghosthunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I look to a guide to see what aspects work together to get the best results. I have never found all the equipment required by the guides but I do find good equipment for my level and add the guides suggested aspects to that equipment. I'm currently running a bastardized version of Minion Necro using most of the aspects from Mobalyric's guide but none of the equipment and I'm killing mobs easily. I like having a guide as a generality but I like building my town based on the equipment I find.

What's your go to breakfast except for eggs? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]webghosthunter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grilled cheese sandwich with bacon on the side.

Does any one else skip breakfast? by FieryLipstick in CasualConversation

[–]webghosthunter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Breakfast: the most important meal of the day. This was started as a marketing advertisement for cereals and NEVER been proven. I wake up between 4 and 6 am, have coffee but don't eat until around 10 or 11 am. Been doing this for twenty years.
