They run their own full OS these days on under powered SoCs to cut costs. All so they can claim to be a "smart" TV until of course the flow of updates stops a year after manufacture and all the apps stop working. Then it's back to being dumb as well as being a massive security hole on your network.

That was a long winded way of saying you don't know what Jellyfin actually is or does. Mpv is a client, it only fills the role that the various Jellyfin clients perform and a better comparison would be against a heavier weight media player such as Kodi.

What you suggest works well enough if you have a reliable network link to share CIFS or NFS over, but what do you do when away from home on a rubbish link that doesn't have bandwidth to stream all your high quality bluray rips? You want transcoding in that situation.

Also, I'm a seasoned Unix sysadmin who knows his way around the cli and I can say with certainty this isn't for people who know the cli, it's for people who just want to prove you can do anything from the cli even if suboptimal.

If only that wasn't true if the other big parties as well.

Shall I assume you are still a big reiserfs user then?

Indusputable proof of ownership of what exactly? The expired domain the nft points to? Nope. Whatever the link once pointed to? Nope. You only have owner ship of that particular urls representation in that particular block chain which confers you exactly nothing else. Not much different to the state you'd be left in with skins in a defunct game as I said.

Sure, but your entry in the block chain that is just a link to nowhere isn't much more exciting that telling people about the cool skin you once had in a defunct game.

If anything, by not giving the money to big multinationals more of my money will be going into the local economy instead.

Are you sure that's many people? Outside of the few tech savvy people I know, most lay people have no clue what h.264/5 are either. They know mp3 and that just means digital music to them.

It doesn't have to have an evolutionary narrative, it's part of the variation that evolution can act on though and what is beneficial or deleterious depends on the circumstances individuals and populations find themselves in.

You can run a separate db server using local storage and use NFS only for the data volumes for the applications themselves.

If you are too young to have lived through the napster revolution it's very much a throwback to that kind of sharing so you get to experience p2p like it's the late 90s only with good network speeds. For an authentic experience limit your download to 56k.

As opposed to the "dunt werk on my machine" that was being replied to? To a bystander deciding to investigate Jellyfin for music themselves both points of view are useful are they not?
