  • Probably a bad time to suggest the Jellyfin for Kodi plugin (since they removed the network paths in this version) but it’s what I use for my main playback device.

    All the goodies of playback via Kodi but play state and metadata gets synced from Jellyfin.

    Another option of course would be to open the file(s) in MKVToolNix to add and correct the subtitle offset there.




  • Do you use the plugin mode (access via HTTP) or the direct mode (access directly via SMB)?

    Music libraries are a mess in plugin mode.

    Still not the best UI in the world but it’s the only Jellyfin player I found that can do seamless refresh rate switching, HDR playback, audio passthrough and has no issues with high bitrate 4k60 hardware decoding.








  • I’ll stick to windows. I don’t want to deal with those people."

    That’s a strange conclusion to come to, installing an OS doesn’t come with the obligation to deal with anyone.

    I like to play games on Steam but that doesn’t mean I have to deal with the atrocity that is the Steam forums.




  • So what’s the big fuggin’ problem here? That Intel won’t use the term “recall”?

    Would you say the same thing about a car?

    “We know the door might fall off but it has not fallen off yet so we are good.”

    The chances of that door hurting someone are low and yet we still replace all of them because it’s the right thing to do.

    These processors might fail any minute and you have no way of knowing. There’s people who depend on these for work and systems that are running essential services. Even worse, they might fail silently and corrupt something in the process or cause unecessary debugging effort.

    If I were running those processors in a company I would expect Intel to replace every single one of them at their cost, before they fail or show signs of failing.

    Those things are supposed to be reliable, not a liability.
