theoretically yeah but you might have some issues with blocklists on other servers. there are cheap domain names available if even $1/yr is an option for you https://gen.xyz/1111b

edit to add- if you buy a domain from cloudflare or any other domain registrar with an API, you can create your own dynamic DNS by running a script on your server to update the domain’s DNS automatically in a similar way to duckdns. more reading available at https://github.com/ddclient/ddclient

any internet connected server should do but you will need a domain name as they’re how your matrix server identifies itself to the network

element calls work in the desktop clients now but you gotta click the video call button even for voice calls to see the option 🫣

to send a hash only, you’d need a modified jellyfin server that can accept a given hash for auth in place of the password. since this project doesn’t require a modified jellyfin server, it does in fact send the password directly, as seen here https://github.com/LLukas22/Jellyswarrm/blob/9c5f4f57af485e305174e9435d76fb226105d946/crates/jellyswarrm-proxy/src/handlers/users.rs#L204

pro que no los dos?

Setting up HW accel on Jellyfin was a bit more manual than a single checkbox. You have to tell it which codecs it should HW decode and encode. I had some issues with it so left it off for now

no, works fine. there’s an LDAP plugin for jellyfin so you can use the jellyfin internal login page and the server will verify the login against authentik. took some setting up though.

I did no research whatsoever and picked the one I’d seen the name of more often. I figured if it didn’t work for me I’d try something else, same as when plex wasn’t working for me so I switched to jellyfin. I have no idea how it compares to the other options but it feels pretty solid so far

Finally switched from plex to jellyfin, seems to be ok so far. Needed to make some small scripts for metadata management but it’s running smoothly. Finally decided I’m hosting enough software with user accounts that I’ve made an authentik instance for SSO with each (ofc jellyfin first)

I just port forward right now, so Plex’s system is basically an overpowered dynamic dns. I guess my next option is to self host a dynamic dns on a numbered xyz domain (yk the $1/yr ones)

i’m fairly familiar with reverse proxies and how to set them up, but I’m mostly worried about the monthly bandwidth limits here. especially with hetzner’s recently lowered limits. since I have a life time plex pass i might be able to hold off from switching until I figure something else out, at least.

If I reverse proxy does the video stream itself travel via the proxy too?

.horse!

for some reason chatgpt responds well to “no yapping”

they call it a typewriter in the first sentence of the article

is it the --extractor-retries option

Probably a lot 😭😭 mine is an old gaming PC with a 3700x and a GTX 970, I try not to think about it. Still, cheaper than 10 streaming services.
