I have it setup on each of my laptops, so I have it available at all time with no need to expose it on my home setup.

Automatically start the container on my laptop, and add it to my browser’s search engines as default. Pretty simple.

I do tech support on a global company, and some customers have started to demand their cases not to be readable for our usa based colleagues, nor the shared info hosted on usa clouds. So that wall is somewhat already there.

What are the specs, hardware wise, of both your laptop and your nas?

I wanted to get rid of my chromecast, so I initially planned on reusing an old minipc I had, tried installing SteamOS on it but failed miserably.

Then I went with Opensuse Aeon, instaled Kodi but I really don’t like the interface, so I am using the Jellyfin client, the SteamApp, and Firefox with my usual adblock setup. All via flatpaks.

This setup autoupdates, so it is cool to have it up 24/7 and just turn on the tv. I can control it via my dualshock, but it is more usable with a 2.4Ghz remote control w/keyboard I got for less than 20€

Sound goes via hdmi to the tv, and from there to my soundbar via ARC, so no sound directly to the pc.

Next, I may setup the Jellyfin server on this machine, so I can leverage its hardware for transcoding (better specs that the nat)

You cannot select the audio track when watching from mobile browsers, so you are stuck with what you were served.

No, I won’t open the native app.

Iirc, you are entitled to have/create a backup of your physical media, as long as it is for your personal use.

You are damn right. I totally forgot vimusic was having issues and was no longer maintained, so I switched to a fork named ViTune, which is not without it’s flaws, but works pretty nice overall

ViMusic

Sonarr takes care of it

On my synology nas I have installed navidrome to serve the music, and consume it via web, and a few android and linux apps like ultrasonic or supersonic

Depending on your level of paranioia. First, you don’t expose your containers, but their port(s).

With a reverse proxy, you will likely expose only 1 port, 443, no matter how many apps/containers/ports it will be pointing internally. For this, having a proper dns setup will be key, and a service like cloudflare dns (not tunnel), which additionally you can proxy your proxy. Also, you will need certificates (letsencrypt) for your traffic to be encrypted. Here, everybody will potentially have access to your services.

Another option is a zero trust tunnel, but as you had seen streaming may break tos. It will be likely enforced if you stream a lot, but I seriously doubt you’ll get any problem by having sporadic one or two users.

Tailscale, you need to add all the devices you need to access your services into the mesh, and you’ll need to re-authenticate every one again every few months.

Setting up a VPN (selfhosted) will require your devices to sign into it when accessing your services, and it seems to me the best approach as this way you will nave the most control over your setting.

Don’t forget to mention that, for this to work, your ISP should provide you with public IP, because if on CGNAT you will have to go with something like tunnels or tailscale.

Entertainers. Show women/men.

Protonvpn has a free tier

I surely missed that setting. I am playing with it, it seems 85 is the sweet spot for me. Thanks!

Have you setup your home screen? You can do that on the dashboard, hiding, grouping, etc.

If what you’ve watched has nearly ended, it won’t show for continuing. I have the opposite issue, some shows has a long outro/preview of the next episode, so I have to either mark it as seen, or fast forward near the end for it not to show on the continuing watching section

Not the same as 10hr nyan cat or bacon pancakes

You could use OpenSUSE Leap, which is binary compatible to SLES. Even if you have an already installed SLES and want it to be updated, there are several ways, like setting up leap’s update repos (binary compatible, remember?), or download the latest quaterly updated iso image, or some other more convoluted ways.

Whyyouwhat?

Same here, but nostalgy has pushed me to hold on that media dubbed in the language I grew with. I now live on a different country with same language, but the dub is way different.

Hard to find old 70’s, 80’s stuff

ViMusic, and yep, I got it via F-droid
