Strit

I don't know if it has androd widgets, but ServerBox monitors any machine over SSH.

I opted for the version with RAM and nvme for $270. had to pay shipping, but no import tax (lucky me). So all in all it was about $300 for me.

And yes I run Linux on it. Arch Linux to be precise. Have not encountered any driver issues.

Exactly. It handles Jellyfin + other services very well.

I bought a "cheap chinesium" one a couple of months back and have not regretted it (yet). It does what it claimed it would.

The one I bought: Aoostar R1

I was thinking the same. Could be an IP conflict.

Maybe you where on an older Ubuntu LTS. I don't know which Ubuntu they consider "supported".

I've been running my HA in Docker on Arch Linux for the last 4-5 years and I have never been notified that my OS is unsupported. Could be portainer related.

You didn't mention in your OP that it had to be debian distro packages. I just gave examples of HA being packaged in other ways than a complete OS.

I could have said: "If you want to run HA from packages, you need to install Arch!" But I didn't. Chill out.

It is both.

Home Assistant created an OS for appliance like installations.

But there is also the docker images, repo packages (I know Arch Linux has it in the repo) and pip based packages too.

Shipping prices would vary depending on location though, right?

Have you checked out Calibre? It seems to be what that does.

I know it's active, but most of the stuff being added is not something I use. "Plain old" is a figure of speech for something that is pretty "vanilla".

mlt was also updated, have you tried downgrading that?

Some stuff in your output relates to mlt.
