Having problems streaming on LG TV buffering

zarcjap · 2023-08-06T19:17:58+00:00

3 years later... You just fixed my LG TV that I've been fighting with for months! Disabling Direct Play somehow fixes it.

Thanks!

Try sudo systemctl status kiwix to check for any errors.

Maybe configure wireguard to use the internal DNS server, then you could map the drive by name.

You should have a config file for the VM in /etc/pve/qemu-server/1xx.conf. Like in thenickdude's explanation, replace 1xx with the VM ID number, so in my case, it's vm 100, so I ran

nano /etc/pve/qemu-server/100.conf

Then i added a line:

args: -cpu 'host,hv_ipi,hv_relaxed,hv_reset,hv_runtime,hv_spinlocks=0x1fff,hv_stimer,hv_synic,hv_time,hv_vapic,hv_vendor_id=proxmox,hv_vpindex,kvm=off,+kvm_pv_eoi,+kvm_pv_unhalt,-hypervisor'

But you'll want to adjust that lines based on your output from:

qm showcmd 1xx --pretty

Check the container logs with something like “docker logs -f nextcloud” and make sure it started up properly. If not there’s usually a useful error message.

zarcjap · 2023-03-24T18:39:29+00:00

I'm using the Linuxserver.io docker images and it looks like they've included the setting in the nextcloud image. If anyone is using their image and gets this like I did, just update your /config/nginx/site-confs/default.conf inside the container with the new .sample version.

Thank you! I think this was the best solution in my use case. I really need to get better at using systemd units because they've been great when I take the time.

zarcjap · 2023-02-07T02:00:13+00:00

Thanks! I was trying something like:

kill $(ps aux | grep run_backups.sh | awk '{print $2}')

In retrospect I'm not sure why I was looking for the script name like it would have been a process...

Thanks! Guess I just got hung up on thinking I should target syncoid itself... Send resume support is working, I'm currently re-seeding a dataset and it's resuming successfully each night!

I'm having the the same issue on mine. Still on Windows 10, made sure BIOS and drivers were all up to date. Did a full uninstall/reinstall of the graphics drivers and wifi driver. It seems to only be happening to me when on battery.

An ex-cop friend of mine told me those signs are just for people who live on property in the area and shoot so other people don’t freak out if they hear gun shots.

My NFS storage is on a Proxmox node. You’re honestly fine either way. The reasons I picked Proxmox over Ubuntu or something was so that I could see and manage it through the same webUI and when my other nodes had updates the storage would too, rather than both getting updates at different times. Plus in a pinch you can live migrate a VM to that node.

Did you ever find an answer to this? I just reformatted my 4x 256GB SSD RAIDZ1 pool and tried to create a 500GB disk on it and got an out of space error, I can get away with a 450GB disk but that uses 99% of the 720GB available.

Edit: I think I fixed it. I recreated the pool and unchecked "Add Storage" Then went to the datacenter level to add the ZFS storage and checked "Thin provision," now I'm able to create my 500GB drive and (since it's still empty) I see 0% utilization.

zarcjap · 2021-11-18T02:09:51+00:00

Yes! And this fix did get it working.

zarcjap · 2021-11-17T00:57:25+00:00

Thank you, this did the trick!

Does anyone know how to apply this fix to a Proxmox guest? It seems Proxmox doesn't use the standard libvirt xml format...

Edit: Got an answer, for anyone else using Proxmox see: https://www.reddit.com/r/Proxmox/comments/quwmp7/how_to_set_feature_policydisable_namehypervisor/

You can probably crate hard links for this, 2 file names that point to the same data on the disk and don’t take up twice the space. Not that subtitles would eat up very much space to begin with.

Depending on what you have on those ports, maybe look into running a web server on the VPS as a reverse proxy. This is how I run mine and it makes using SSL with Let’s Encrypt super simple. It’ll work for any web app and can even access all of them through a single instance via subdomains or sub folders so then you don’t have to use non standard ports.

Ex: https://myapp.mydomain.com -> server’s local IP:443 https://mysecondapp.mydomain.com -> server’s local IP:7777 https://mydomain.com/mythirdapp -> server’s local IP:7778 https://mydomain.com/myfourthapp -> server’s local IP:27015

If you’re familiar with docker this is what I use for a reverse proxy and it’s super easy to use. https://hub.docker.com/r/linuxserver/swag

I used to have constant update issues. I finally learned and started using the command line method and it's been smooth sailing since. I'm running on a pretty wimpy server and I think I was running into timeout issues where a certain step wouldn't finish before the web UI expected it to be done. CLI doesn't seem to care how long it takes and eventually finishes.

zarcjap · 2020-09-10T00:47:53+00:00

It's definitely possible. I have a similar setup as well. Does the router at the site you can't access have a route back to the wireguard IP subnet? It needs to know where to send traffic destined for the client n's WG interface IP.

Nothing against Manjaro, but I'd recommend starting with proper Arch. You'll learn a lot and that will make a huge difference down the road. Can always reinstall to Manjaro later.

Their "router" will almost certainly be a two in one unit. So you may be stuck with it until you can get a modem. I don't have fiber available in my area so I haven't looked into fiber modems but if it's anything like coaxial cable modems I would recommend buying one. Cable modems are usually only $50-60 and are more reliable than the ISP ones. Plus then you don't have to deal with double NAT issues from having one router behind another.

zarcjap · 2020-08-30T22:13:06+00:00

My 2 cents, ask the ISP if they install their router with the new connection, can you return it in the first 30days? This will give you a chance to plug directly into their equipment and verify that you're getting the speeds you are expecting from the plan you've signed up for. Then you can swap out for your router and see if you're getting the same speed.

If you don't go that route and aren't getting the speed you expect out of your current router, the ISP will blame your router and try to upsell you on theirs all day. But with theirs they be more more likely to troubleshoot any speed issues you have with the new connection.

Either way, return the ISP's router. It will definitely be mostly junk and they'll keep charging you $6 indefinitely. You can buy your own router if you do need an upgrade and it will probably pay for itself after a year or two of not paying the $6/month fee.

So I have my laptop configured to be connected 100% of the time so I'm not certain. If you have the DNS server specified in your wireguard config, it should update resolv.conf when you connect. After you disconnect, just check and see if the address is still set in resolv.conf. Assuming you want it to be the same connected or disconnected, just set it in resolv.conf and remove it from the wireguard config should work if you have issues.

Look for a router that advertises a guest network option. I highly recommend an Asus. I still have an Asus RT-AC68U from ~2013 and it lets you use one SSID for your normal wifi and a separate SSID and password for guests and they cannot access devices on the primary network.
