A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I've been putting off having a local copy of the series and movies I watch because I still can access them quickly and cheaply enough in some streaming service, I think it's time to plan ramping up my selfhosted setup.

There were definitely a few versions of releases 19.x that had buffering issues with larger 4K videos where it would just stop playback, but the latest ones for versions 20.x seem stable for me. Only issue I can think of is sometimes the touch interface on a tablet gets confused and won’t let me scroll up or down, but restarting the app clears it. No issues for me with the pc app interface using mouse pointer and scrollwheel, or the remote controlled interface on a FireTV.
