What do you mean by “backed” here? I think I’m misunderstanding but I thought (and a short google seems to confirm) that currency A being backed by currency B means the value of A is fixed at a certain amount of currency B, and there is some organisation “backing” this with reserves.

Not trying to shill/defend crypto, just confused on terminology :)

It’s not just the media who uses this term. According to this study which I’ve had a very brief skim of, the term “hallucination” was used in literature as early as 2000, and in Table 1, you can see hundreds of studies from various databases which they then go on to analyse the use of “hallucination” in.

It’s worth saying that this study is focused on showing how vague the term is, and how many different and conflicting definitions of “hallucination” there are in the literature, so I for sure agree it’s a confusing term. Just it is used by researchers as well as laypeople.

Other comments seem not to mention the Real Debrid bit, so I’ll focus on that here:

Personally, I use my preferred debrid service to reduce the amount of stuff I need to store. You can mount the files you’ve got saved in your debrid using rclone with the webDAV creds that Real Debrid gives you.

You should probably use rogerfar’s rdt-client, even if you only use real Debrid to download torrents without using your own ip. It implements the qBittorrent API so you can point *arts at it as a download client. It’s got a couple of modes, so you can either have the files downloaded or symlinked from the mount discussed above.

Zerg from DebridMediaManager is something I've heard good things about, but i haven't been able to try it as its source-available for a fee, which i disagree with.

I don’t think people hate discord as a host for some communities, but there definitely is a growing rejection of it among FOSS contributors.

It sucks as a place to store knowledge. The search sucks, it’s not indexable by search engines, and requires an account to use. As another commenter on this post said, it combines the worst parts of IRC and webforums.

There are better ways to organise a FOSS project, and people are unhappy that some projects still choose discord.

I dont know what it’s like where you live, but in the UK, we get a decent number of ads around Christmas from the Dogs Trust telling people a dog is not just for Christmas. I don’t think it’s that weird that people make the association between dogs being adopted near Christmas and dogs being abandoned shortly after.

Edit: accidentally posted this twice, hence the deleted comment in this thread

Yep, those are 2 different ways to turn media requests from users into something oldx/jellyfin can use.

Might be worth noting that real debrid’s webDAV implementation (the protocol that lets you access the files in your mount) is a little funky, and might get very slow for large libraries (over 1k links), so itsToggle (author of plex_debrid) has a fork of rclone to fix this. There’s also a new project called zurg from the debrid-media-manager people, but it’s closed source, and the devs don’t intend on making it open source.

One way is to use rclone to mount your Real Debrid link onto your server and run plex/Jellyfin using the remote media. That way all your clients talk to the server, so you’ve only got one connection to RD

RDT-client implements the qBittirrent api so you can point radar/sonar at it, and it will make symlinks from your mount to a structured media directory

Plex_debrid is a python script which is a standalone method to get media onto RD. It can take requests from your plex watchlist or ombi/overseerr and will search trackers to grab the release. As plex is less fussy about the file structure of your media, you can just point plex straight at your mount.

Sorry maybe I’ve misunderstood your stack. The “typical” plex_debrid stack has the debrid mounted via WebDAV using rclone so plex/jellyfin/whatever can see the stuff on your debrid as though it was a local file, only downloading bits of each file as they’re requested.

The option I suggested lets rclone download to your disk as a cache, which I found mae the experience much smoother

What args have you passed to rclone? I found setting ‘—vfs-cache-mode full drastically improved streaming performance

[–] cucumberbob@programming.dev 2 points 1 year ago

I use Alldebrid over WebDAV on infuse. The sync times can be incredibly long, opening the magnets folder of my WebDAV takes around 2 minutes with around 300 torrents - around 4k files. You only need to do this long syncing when your library changes, streaming is near instant.

Jellyfin is a bit trickier because it requires quite a strict file structure, and most (if not all) debris services don’t let you change the file structure of your drive. Itstoggle is working on an artificial sorting branch for his fork of rclone for real debrid which should be able to rename files for jellyfin to understand
