Same

That has been known to happen.

Not me. Artificial sanctifiers are a cancer risk.

The petunia’s knew to keep trying no matter how often Arthur (or another Dent) struck them down.

Much appreciated

Sudden buffering followed by a very long load time before it can get going again. Lowering the resolution resolves it for me.

What I’m seeing only on certain files though. And those files will always buffer again at the same point in playback. But it happens on things I watched without issue prior to my last update. So I suspect it’s a problem with a specific codec, but I haven’t taken the time to validate my hunch.

It’s been about a year since I tried it, so it’s probably worth another. Back then it did OK if I was doing straight passthrough (though CPU load was noticeably higher) but I got a lot of buffering when I’d try to have it transcode anything.

I host quite a few things on it (via docker) so the 920 is starting to show its load. I suspect that and the lack of hardware acceleration are the source of my issues.

No, diskstation runs a significantly modified 2.4 kernel. They say they backport CSM mitigations/fixes into their kernel, but community pressure is growing by the year for them to update.

I run plex on a synology nas whose kernel is too out of date for hardware accelerated transcoding in Jellyfin.

This reminds me of my favorite blurb I’ve found while browsing Memory Alpha:

Although the writing staff of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine had spent almost the entirety of the show’s second season planning to make Bareil the new kai, electing Winn to that position was a last-minute decision. “We were all sitting in the room,” recalled Robert Hewitt Wolfe, “and it occurred to us, ‘God, we could […] make Winn the kai. That’s a scary idea!’”

So that’s why I’ve done it my entire adult life. I always wondered.

I haven’t had issues this bad, but Plex has been buffering a lot more lately. If moving to Jellyfin didn’t involve new hardware for me, I would have already jumped ship.

The ones that I get excited to see new videos from are, in no particular order:

Lindsay Nikole

She’s a biologist and does videos on prehistoric animals and time periods, that we know of. Entertaining videos and it turns out we studied under some of the same people.

acollierastro

Dr. Collier is a theoretical physicist who covers a wide arc a physics topics, and who did a pretty impressive review of Picard.

BobbyBroccoli

Very indepth and well researched videos about science and tech scandals and controversies

Dr Becky

Is an Oxford Astrophysicist who covers a lot of findings about JWT and will point out upcoming things in the night sky

Here’s the API dev site

so reticulated

I’m one of those holdouts saying Disco and SNW aren’t canon (because they break so much of it) but it didn’t occur to me that, if they are then it means LD must be canonical too.

You may have changed my mind.

Dr Pepper is obviously a middle aged plum in a lab coat.
