Nothing. People fear that which they do not understand

Skill issue

Same. It’s nearly as good as having a full laptop in my pocket wherever I go, given the Fold series’ top-end specs and the nice big screen.

I’ve heard that KDE has a cube effect

I use Mint for my main gaming PC, FWIW, totally rock solid

Another thing you might want to try is Mint with the Mate DE, which is based on old GNOME 2 code (and therefore can load the old add-ons like the 3D desktop cube etc)

I’d recommend CachyOS if you’re trying to squeeze the best gaming performance out of the hardware

Aw man, lame. I guess Pixel Fold is gonna be it

Sure, it could be done client-side in theory. In practice, the Jellyfin team consider it outside of the scope of the project, so now you’re talking about building or modifying a third-party client and directing all of your servers’ users to use that client. This also only works for users who have a device that can run said client.

My intention was to do it server-side in such a way that it would seamlessly work with any client

I would love this. Motorola’s Android is one of the most vanilla. I’ve had a fold for 4 years now (first a Fold 2 for 3 years, now a 5), but I would love if another brand could equal it, because Samsung phones have a lot of bloated crapware on them that does irk me. A revision of the Pixel Fold would also be adequate, but historically Motorola’s been my favorite of the major phone brands for their clean software experience

Jellyfin does not support federation between multiple server instances the way Plex does, unfortunately. I was working on a project to enable direct server-to-server federation but once I got into the details it became clear that it was going to be a difficult problem that would require a separate server apps combined with a plug-in for Jellyfin on each end. Even then, Jellyfin isn’t made to support e.g. servers being down, except by failing to stream a file, which doesn’t have a good way to convey to the user that the file is temporarily unavailable vs broken/bad

It works just fine for installing windows games that aren’t from those sources, it’s just less seamless. If UMU has the game in its DB, then the game will still benefit regardless of the store it was acquired from

A competent, fun-to-play game that does nothing new doesn’t suck IMO, thus the distinction.

Saying anything that doesn’t do something new or exciting sucks is a pretty bad take IMO.

Like you wouldn’t say a new horror movie sucks just because it’s about a serial killer holding a family captive in their house and there’s like 50 movies with that premise already, y’know? Execution counts and Valve is still amazing at execution, is my main point. They would absolutely make a fun game that feels intuitive to play with great level design. It just might not necessarily be anything special in terms of mechanics. Mechanically I haven’t seen much new from them since maybe Portal 2.

It won’t suck because Valve playtests the hell out of their games, but it might be bland/old fashioned feeling. The biggest issue with Valve is that they’ve really lost their edge. They used to be this young scrappy company that would innovate as easily as breathe, but over time they’ve begun to become so senior-heavy that now they just foster promising talents more than actually produce games.

Jellyfin can read nfo files on disk and you can set it to never modify the files, or you could set Jellyfin to keep all of its metadata in its own DB and never put metadata in the same folder with the media files. Either way it’s entirely doable to prevent a metadata loop like you’re describing

You’ll want to delete it from the CLI, then. Try the unlink command

Delete one

In short, it’s not planned. The work necessary is out of scope for Jellyfin

No, there’s an “Auto” setting on clients but it doesn’t work especially well and doesn’t adjust on-the-fly like the big streamers can.

If you’re watching high quality video like blu-ray remuxes, that’s a much higher bitrate than stuff like Netflix. Netflix will also automatically adjust the quality of the stream, whereas Jellyfin will default to max quality.

The first thing I’d try is this:

You could set the max bitrate to a lower level on the Roku that’s lagging, maybe 15 Mbps (generally the highest bitrate used by Netflix)
