That’s very kind :) HDR would be nice but Jellyfin does a good job at tone mapping to SDR when transcoding so it’s not a deal breaker. Can you actually tell the difference between judder-free and judder 24 fps playback? I think many people can’t, but unfortunately I am one of the people who are annoyed by judder. If you can, which one is it on the S5e?
I have switched from manjaro to endeavouros about a month ago. I definitely prefer endeavouros. However, the kernel install GUI in manjaro was nice, made it very easy to get an overview of the available kernels and which ones are still getting support.
And it does judder free 24 fps playback on a 60hz screen?
Edit: also, what model is it? The Galaxy Tab S5e?
I really want an android tablet with lineageos support for watching movies and browsing the web. But I have been spoiled by my OLED TV so I think LCD just won’t cut it. Also, I would ideally want a 120hz display so that movies can be played back without 3:2 pulldown. I don’t believe such a device exists ATM?
They don’t just confirm it, the apk you download from fdroid is compiled by them from the source code. And sure, they’re not reviewing all the source code for all apps they build, but it’s still one added layer of security.
Sure, at one point you have to trust something or someone unless you want to read all source code for all apps you use. Thankfully there are quite a few people out there who do basically that and report issues they find, but ultimately, reading all source code and compiling everything by yourself would be the only way to be safe.
I thought about that argument as I was posting my reply. The thing is that with fdroid you only have to trust one instance. With something like obtainium, you are trusting every single developer whose app you are downloading. Don’t get me wrong, ultimately I am not that worried either and am using the izzyondroid repo as well which has the same issue as obtainium. But it is good to have systems in place to prevent abuse even if that abuse is unlikely.
No, the developers of the apps you are installing through obtainium.
Are you aware of the izzyondroid repo? That contains loads of github releases which for one reason or another haven’t made their way to fdroid yet. So far, I haven’t had to manually download any apks from github because everything has been available there.
Yeah fdroid is vastly preferred over this because you can be sure that the source code provided actually produces the executable.
Maybe it is a new feature but I am also typing this comment with it and I can select from quite a few markdown options
I think you are underestimating your TV, as long as it detects that the content is 24 fps it should have no trouble playing it back judder free.
Other than that, I thought about it some more, and I think I’m fine with a bit of judder. On a big TV I find it really annoying but on a smaller screen I can probably see past it. Sound-wise I will mainly use my bluetooth iems so I don’t really need good speakers. So now I am trying to get a tab s5e at a decent price, but weirdly most listings start at 200 Euros, which I don’t think I’m willing to spend on an more than 4 year old device. Oh well, we will see how it goes.
Thank you very much for your help!
