Its like back in the 90s only with music CDs

How can I check the HDR transcode information are still there? I'm working with MKVToolnix and others and I'm not sure if I lossing HDR? Where are the HDR information stored, is it hardcoded in the videostream, or in der container format only?

Where do I connect shield pro to then?

ok but you talk so slow, I had to play your video at 1.5x to save time

Great video. I went the NAS route and it cost me about $2,500.00. My best friend went the Raspberry Pi 3B route with a 2TB external USB drive and it works great for him and his DVD rips. I have a lot of Blu-Ray content and around 16 TB of files, whereas he still has free space with lots of DVD content. I guess it all depends on the individual needs, so whatever you can afford will probably be okay as long as you do your research before getting started. For what it is worth, I'm Plex Lifetime and he uses OSMC. So, there is a tier for whatever you can afford. Thanks for the great videos, I'm a subscriber now...

Yeah I've used Plex, tried Jellyfin for a few days, then moved to Emby. Night and day difference, even with having to pay for Emby. It's worth it.

Manufactured March 2024 works fine

I think the gpu chip might be fried, i was installing proxmox on an old computer and it booted at bios correctly but after starting install procedure dhe screen went off and i could not continue. I thougt the computer was too old to work with proxmox but after that i found a gpu card for 10$, swapped that with the computer gpu and it worked. Tried the old gpu on another computer and had the same black screen when loading os.

I bought a Plex lifetime subscription on sale years ago. I’m trying to figure out what advantages, if any, Jellyfin offers.

Are they even selling this mains stream yet?

Ripping takes time. So do you really benefit from getting an external USB 3.0 enclosure? You can get USB 2 versions for around $15

Hi, is there any video of how to RIP a 4K movie into a blu-ray. I have tried Roxio Toast Pro and Final Cut Pro and none of them seem to work. Thanks

As of today 06/13/24, what external hard drive will work right out of the box to rip/copy any 4k disc? I already own MKV also. It would help me greatly to own a drive that will work with 4k's.

you should add some more modern intel cpus into the mix and transcode a few more types of videos as well as checking out how many concurrent transcoded streams it can manage. I like amd price to performance and general performance to power ratios but i hear intel quick sync is king

Hi question I have a amp plate 300S bash with a car audio box and the speaker or woofer daytona home audio when i play a movie with old receiver i use optical the woofer plays explosions and dialog at the same time i connect the wwofer with lfe from bash and pre out no sure the name the black rca Thanks

I can see y'all are focused on media, athough as a huge fan of your integrity and quality, I really would love to see a similar video but instead of trasncoding, etc also as a online file server, workstation, etc I really want a 2nd pc in order to not have to dual boot, or deal with a VM, and gpu passthrough. With this, I'm wondering whether to sell my old 3700x, and remnant psu/ram from my last upgrade, or if it would be better to be an aio product such as the one in this video! Not sure if this comment helps with your question at the end, but regardless of what your next content is I cant wait to see more dude.

Unrelated to this video but I didn’t know where else to ask this question. I’m trying to put together a home theater surround sound system for movies and Xbox. I’m struggling to find the best bang for your speakers. I’m not wanting to spend more than $1,000 on the speakers. Do you have any recommendations?

I download movies and put them on iTunes and watch from Apple TVs around the house

Intel n100 where

This video is amazing except the mic quality and lack of variety to demostrate the performance of this setup. Wish there was more to listen to...

8:12 Doesn't seem right, did you use QSV for the intel platform?

Anyone had any luck with setting it up on UGOS? having the network settings as virtuo/bridge and i can ping other devices on the network but can't ping the nas or access the share folders either. If i change the settings to virtuo/nat, I am then able to access the share folder and mount it, but then i cannot ping the vm and using the vm's ip address does not show makemkv on browser. Anyone??

Try installing rocm and amd drivers

I'd be curious how a older ryzen office pc would compare. Like a Dell Optiplex 5055 (if I remember correctly) or a HP Elitedesk 705 g4.

I’m kind of confused. I plugged my optical drive to my NAS and it is not showing up under the USB Device options. I looked online and apparently Synology does not support optical drives? How came it shows up for you in the Other Settings page? I know my drive is somewhat detectable because the drive’s sg4 folder exists

Apparently the 7th gen intel I gpus are a lot better than the 6th gen for transcoding

For me it’s the ability to setup an external connection easy that keeps me on Plex. If I wanted something similar it would take setup of a VPN or similar to get external access. Plex is also a lot easier to work with compared to Jellyfin for those not technologically inclined.

I just Upgraded my Previous i7-3770, 32gb in a consumer grade board Truenas With PLEX server (due to board malfunction) to a used Commercial grade Asus board with 16gb ddr4, and a I5-7400. Much less power consumption than that ivy bridge i7, and honestly much more responsive system, Better Quicksync too. Still running Truenas Core, because i am terrified to Move to Truenas scale! it's all working at the moment and i don't want to fuss with it, hahaha!

I can confirm that this still worked in June 2024 with the same hardware. Thanks!

I’m running an i5 6600k , 16gb ram & an AMD RX 570 for jellyfin & emulation.

For the media server guides you guys have done, I've been getting very inconsistent information on the actual legality of ripping disks. I say this as its not a situation where I'm asking will I get arrested but if its actually illegal in the united states?

I just checked Amazon for the enclosure and it doesn’t appear to be available for purchase

Will similar steps work on a Ugreen Nas?

Ads going to paid streaming is just gonna kill any desire to watch anything on those platforms im gonna save your video and then invest in a setup

Great video, but honestly instead of collecting messy DVDs and everything I'll just have yarrh and ahoy me mates, thouse torrents are ours!

Can you please do a tutorial on ripping 3D disc please.

I’m re-buying DVDs of my favorite movies for anywhere from $2.50-$9.00 and “saving” what I stream. 😏

Myself, I use Videoproc for compression. Then I use the compressed copy for streaming outside the home using Plex and keep the original file for my home theater, using Kodi and/or PowerDVD. The tip for splitting videos with MKVToolNix is new to me and VERY MUCH appreciated. I'll be using that tip when I rip my "The Dark Knight" bonus features disc.

What is the best software for this

Would you please recommend me a 120 or 130 screen for a dark room? I have benq ht4550i. Thank you in advance

Built my first pc a few months ago with this being something on my mind as wanting to do. got my asus drive at the weekend and now i got some free time i flashed the drive and am this very second ripping my first 4k. looking forward in a few months time to getting some sweet 4k monitors so i can take advantage of this, thanks

It is even cheaper now. Like 42$. But idle CPU usage is just not too good. 80-100W in idle, is just crazy bad. The "Asrock" 15000$ server, well, they are worthless now. You can get them now basically for free with chassis, PSUs, cooling, and all 12 cards. Even for home labing, k8s, experiments, it is not worth it, due to crazy idle power usage.

Maybe I am doing something wrong, but the only AppleTV playback app is Invuse. The problem I am running into is that it charges for certain actions.

Seems like ur just overcomplicating owning a bluray. Literally just use the bluray. If u can't take care of ur physical media you didn't deserve it to begin with.

Good vid Bruh 👍 Are there any apps that let you watch movies online streamed from other users personal collections? I was curious to know is that kind of streaming tech is being used. I wouldn't mind watching movies from someone who has a better collection than mine or some of these free streaming sites... 😊🫡

I didnt even know this was and option, I have to deep dive on this now. I have no clue what any of the technical jargon is, I have a very large movie collection and just now got suggested this. Thanks for the video!

I built my media server just recently, using a used computer that was overkill for plex and a few other services. Added 4 raid5 12tb hdds and now I have around 32 tb of storage space and Im just adding all my media there.

Why didn't you install Ubuntu server/Fedora server

can u just come over set this crap up for me thx

I'm not so lazy. I can just stand up walk over to my blu-ray player, change the blu-ray or dvd manually and go sit back down.
