I don’t know much about the situation but the article does say he runs a animal rescue that he named after the squirrel
AlphaAutist
They are already tagged as explicit/clean in the metadata as well as separated by folder with an [E] tag if explicit. I could manually rematch them but my library is large so I’d really rather not
I like Plexamp but there’s a couple of things to be aware of depending on your music library that took me a while to figure out:
- They downsample anything above 48kHz which isn’t a big deal but sucks if you have hi-res music. It won’t even tell you it’s transcoding if you check the dashboard and Plexamp will show it as playing at the actual sample rate which is misleading when trying to debug.
- It doesn’t distinguish between explicit and clean versions so if you have both then it will just look like duplicates. You also can’t favorite just the clean or explicit version as favoriting one will do the same for both versions.
- They don’t support Spatial Audio/Dolby Atmos(E-AC-3) music. Doesn’t matter if they are m4a or flac. Again, nothing about transcoding in the dashboard but the sound will be horrible. It does at least show in Plexamp that the song is playing as Opus. I know everyone says multichannel music isn’t worth it, but I wanted to try it out and was very disappointed when Plexamp wouldn’t play them.
These probably aren’t issues to the majority of users with just their favorite songs in mp3 or flac 16-44, but it’s something for people with larger hi-res/multichannel libraries to be aware of that I recently learned.
I just bought a few refurbished 12TB WD Ultrastars off Amazon and it actually says it’s sold by ServerPartDeals. Not sure if it’s the same people but interesting if they are
Maybe they are thinking of iVentoy which is not open source but is by the same dev
The article he linked specifically mentioned that the data is sent to matrix’s servers even when using a self hosted server though
What did you end up using?
No? I have an iPhone because Apple is definitely more trustworthy with my data than Google. The only other Apple product I have is an Apple Watch because I like the integration. Other than that every computer I have runs Linux.
You Google simps need to grow up and stop acting like Tesla fanboys lol
Only one monitor? Trash
I actually didn’t know that about addressing before your comment and so I found it very interesting, thanks
lol calm down there kid no need to get upset. I thought you needed a license to run an Animal Shelter, but I guess not. Not being disingenuous I just misunderstood.
