A couple of words on migration from one #SynologyNAS to another.
I prepared a backup in two different places (just in case) and was ready to wait a whole day to restore it, but #Synology #DSM broke all my expectations. After I moved my drives from an old DS223 to a new DS423+ and started it, it said: "Hey, looks like you are migrating from another NAS. Do you want to restore your system on a new NAS with a single button click?".
So far, DS423+ performance is super satisfactory. Especially #Plex. Sure, after the RAM upgrade from 2 to 6 GB.

Which #MediaServer software people use nowadays? Would love to hear in replies also what led to the choice.
Please boost!

So my #NUC keeps crashing randomly. As I don't have #Nextcloud there anymore, the only important thing left was Nginx Proxy Manager.
Thanks to @frenck we could have Nginx Proxy Manager on the Home Assistant machine as an add-on.
Now my faulty #NUC is just a Plex server with various *arr software. The crashes are not critical anymore, by still annoying.

#nextcoud is... nextclouding, but I decided to set up #jellyfin instead of doing a #fediverse instance. That can wait.
I'll see how the #Raspberrypi does as my own personal #Netflix -style #mediaserver. I might need more horsepower though.

Is anybody using Jellyfin and having playback issues when using the Jellyfin Android app?
Songs are suddenly paused / stop playing towards the end of each track. If I hit "Pause", the song continues. It looks like the connection to the Jellyfin server is interrupted after some time. I've suspected the Android battery saving mechanisms as a problem but setting "No battery optimization" in the app settings didn't change anything. The problem persists. ๐ค

@jay I did mine like 15 minutes ago. Didn't take but a minute..

I'd recommend an #icybox (ICY-BOX-IB-256WP 2,5mm ) with #buildin #writeprotection switch.
for any #nas if you use it as #mediaserver (to prevent each&any #accidental #write #operations )

For people who have a media server and use the Apple TV does Plex or Infuse sync with up next in the TV app? Or is there an app Iโm unaware of that does this?

Plex has added end credits detection as of Plex Media Server v1.31.0. This feature offers a "Skip Credits" option that jumps to straight to the postplay screen or any post-credits scene.

Hello #fediverse! Looking for #recommendations:
I have an unused iMac that I want to install Linux on and use as a media server (probably using Plex, I've used it before).
Recommended Linux distro to use? Or does it not really matter? Thanks! ๐

Currently recording a metric crap ton of #digimon episodes since I heard that most of the series was leaving #Hulu in about 9 days. I know lots of #streaming services have been dropping content lately and I'm not going to take any chances so I'm saving it all on my #Plex server. I'd you have a #mediaserver and #PlayOn and you like Digimon you might want to get recording.

Oof beginning of the end for Plex as a media server? I hope not.
New computer incoming... now to worry about porting my labs over. I have them on a separate drive but VBox can be a PITA to reprovision. I know I know, I should probably be using something else...
Usually I'd build my new computer but I got super lucky with this one. It's a rendering machine that's been fully refurbished and I got for $500 under value. Score. My (now 10 year old) build will be a nice little set-and-forget media server.
