Hi guys!

I'm trying to re-compress a few TV shows that are mostly animation to some animation-friendly codec (HEVC 10bit, maybe even AV1), to reduce the storage it takes on the NAS (I'm looking at you, One Piece/Simpsons!). I've used handbrake with full folders to handle whole seasons of a TV show before, but that was a bit frustrating to run on my desktop PC, hence the install of Tdarr. However it's a bit...overwhelming with all the options, without quite hinting what each one does. I'm adding a...library. Ok, what's the library? Is it say, an -arr full TV Shows library? Or should I add one library per TV show (custom specific settings for each one?). How do I work...with the transcode options? I see it's all drag-drop, but I'm not sure of all these options.

I'd like to transcode to say, HEVC 10bit, reduce perhaps audio with Opus or AAC, and keep same tracks and subs. How would I go about this?

THanks!

So, I've been trying to accomplish this for a while. First I posted asking for help getting started, then I posted about trying to open ports on my router. Now, I proudly post about being able to show the world (for the first time ever) my abysmal lack of css and html skills.

I would like to thank everyone in this community, specially to those who took the time to answer my n00b questions. If you'd like to see it, it will be available at: https://nginxtest.kazuchijou.com/

(Beware however, for you might cringe into oblivion and back.)

Since this website is hosted on my desktop computer, there will be some down-time here and then, however I'll leave it on for the next 48 hours (rip electricity bill) only for you guys to see. <3

Now, there are a couple of things that need addressing:

I set it up as a cloudflare tunnel and linked it to my domain. However, I still don't know any docker at all (despite using it for the tunnel), and the process was too incredibly and stupidly easy. I don't think I learned as much as I expected and I didn't feel challenged at all.

The original idea was to do some port forwarding. (This was foolish and a bit of a waste of time). Despite getting a "public-ip-address" from my ISP, I still was unable to open ports successfully. I kept getting the same error again and again. If you'd like to read my original post about port forwarding you may follow this link: "[Solved] ((lie)) Noob stuck on port-forwarding wile trying to host own raw-html website. Pls help".

While I know doing this represents a security risk, I still wanted to at least have a small success with port forwarding. I just wanted to have the raw-internet-connection experience, you know? like, the basics and such. And Cloudflare is holding my hand way too hard, I want to feel like I can shoot myself in the foot (without actually doing so)

But to be honest, I'm quite happy with the outcome. There are many other avenues I'd like to explore in the future, like setting up a reverse proxy with nginx or even darknet hosting (as sugested by another commentor).

I hope to keep learning and some day help another poor soul like myself in a similar situation. I thank you again guys, you're the best.

[TL;DR] This is the best and most helpful community ever! thx <3

Or can I hard-reset the device into the default configuration again?

Hi everyone, it's been a while :)

Postiz is an open-source social media scheduling tool that offers scheduling on the following:

Instagram, YouTube, Dribbble, LinkedIn, Reddit, TikTok, Facebook, Pinterest, Threads, X, Slack, Discord, Mastodon and BlueSky.

https://github.com/gitroomhq/postiz-app

There's been tons of interest in Postiz. It's super exciting but also challenging—around 5-10 tickets per day (without a support team 😿), mainly coming from Portainer, Coolify, and Unraid—and I still haven't figured out how to solve it.

I need to balance shipping and customer support.

Tons of new features since the latest release:

• Option to add stories to Instagram and tag people for collaboration.
• Customer separation - you can group accounts per customer, and when you schedule, you can filter by customer.
• Option to tag companies on LinkedIn (I wanted to tag people also, but it was not possible)
• Fixes for different social media posts failing.
• Introducing Plugs! This is a concept you can find in other tools that can boost your engagement for your current posts. Here are some examples:
  • Once your post reaches X amount of likes, repost it (to regain visibility to it)
  • Once your post reaches X amount of likes, add another message to it (all your existing commenters will get a notification)

What's next:

• Public API - I have been too lazy to make it, I have to push more :)
• One Inbox - so you can reply to all your messages from one place.
• Google My Business provider
• AI Agents - I am still trying to figure out what to do with it, but it looks interesting.

Special thanks to this community that supports me with every post ❤️

Any star to the repo is a blessing ⭐️

** Fediverse networks will come soon :)

I would like to archive some for their useful info like r/selfhosted. Frequently find answers there

Hello,

I am trying to setup Authentik to do a forward auth for Firefly3, using caddy. I am trying to learn External authentication so my knowledge is limited.

My setup is as follows.

By looking at the Firefly doc Firefly doc, I need to set AUTHENTICATION_GUARD=remote_user_guard AUTHENTICATION_GUARD_HEADER=HTTP_X_AUTHENTIK_EMAIL in my .env file. I used the base .env file provided by Firefly and modified only these two lines

Then, in my Authentik, I made a forward auth for a single application for firefly. This part seem to work because the redirection is made. The external host is my Firefly ip address.

Then from the example provided in the Authentik provider, I created my caddy file on the Firefly container to redirect port 80 to my custom port 9080.

:80 {
        # directive execution order is only as stated if enclosed with route.
        route {
                # always forward outpost path to actual outpost
                reverse_proxy /outpost.goauthentik.io/* http://10.0.1.7:9080

                # forward authentication to outpost
                forward_auth http://10.0.1.7:9080 {
                        uri /outpost.goauthentik.io/auth/caddy

                        # capitalization of the headers is important, otherwise they will be empty
                        copy_headers X-Authentik-Username X-Authentik-Groups X-Authentik-Email X-Authentik-Name X-Authentik-Uid X-Authentik-Jwt X-Authentik-Me>

                        # optional, in this config trust all private ranges, should probably be set to the outposts IP
                        trusted_proxies private_ranges
                }

        }
}

EDIT : The IP address of Firefly is 10.0.1.8

When I try to go on my Firefly app, the Authentik redirection is made and it tries to connect to the Firefly webpage,but I either get unable to connect when I try the https, or Looks like there’s a problem with this site when I try to connect with http.

I see that the connection is refused in both case.

I made sure that my email on my account on firefly matches the email from the Authentik user.

I tried googling my problem to no avail and the Firefly documentation is pretty scarce.

Any help would be welcome.

Hey folks, I wanted to share this tool I recently came across, called Rescuezilla - not seen it mentioned a lot here on Lemmy. It's a neat little tool worth keeping on an usb-stick.

What is Rescuezilla?

Rescuezilla is a backup/recovery solution. It's a Clonezilla GUI that's fast, feature-packed and very easy-to-use, even for everyday computer users.

Main features:

• Disk Imaging: Easily create full images of your hard drives or partitions for backup or migration.
• Restoration: Quickly restore disk images to the original drive or a different one, making recovery a breeze.
• Cross-Platform Support: Works with various operating systems, including Windows, Linux, and macOS.
• Live Environment: Runs from a live USB or CD, so you can back up or restore your system without booting into your installed OS.
• File System Support: Compatible with multiple file systems, making it versatile for different storage devices.

The full feature list: https://rescuezilla.com/features

I'm looking to replace my sff J5040 Wyze machine. Its still plenty fast enough, but storage has become an issue with its limited USB endpoint availability of ~50 device limit.

I know that just switching it up to a newer Intel system could give me double the endpoints because of the two XHCI chip setup, but I was thinking that if I'm going to replace it, I'd like to not limit myself.

As such, even though Ryzen is far faster than I need, it does now support USB4. Does anyone know if the switch to USB4 would give the system a larger address range and have more than 127 USB devices or is that limitation still in place and I might as well not waste my money?

I'm running a rather small homelab and am hunting for a good UPS to help keep everything running smoothly. My top priorities are:

• Just enough battery life to keep things running until they can be shut down
• Compatible with open source software for monitoring and automated shutdown

Would I have better luck getting a used one and a new battery, or a brand new unit altogether? Anyone have one they don't need anymore, on that note? 👀

Thanks for the advice!

I've been using Obsidian for my note taking for a little while and I love it. I love you can just do a quick [[[other note]]] and it will link to the other note. I love that the full thing is just in markdown files, so that I can have full control; even if Obsidian were to disappear.

The one thing that is a little frustrating for me is getting my notes synced between my desktop, laptop, and phone. I have tried using syncthing to just sync the markdown files directly and it worked pretty well. But, it seems a bit overkill on my phone. I think I'd rather move to a single server that I can connect them to and they can sync from there.

I have looked into a few plugins. I saw that there a git one. I am a developer. So, that seems like the natural way for me to do it. But, I also saw a post on reddit where they suggested webdav. Which might be closer to what I want. I don't need it to be where I can type on two devices and have the stuff sync super fast or something. I just want to type my notes, close the app, and when I open it on a different device; I want it to have my latest notes ready for me.

What are you personally using for Obsidian? I'd love to hear from other people here. I don't want to pay for Obsidian's subscription service. I want to host it myself.

It's really nice. I liked the setup process.

Hello, have setup my proxmox server since some weeks recently I found that LXC containers could be useful as it really separate all my services in differents containers. Since then I figured out to move my docker's services from a vm into several LXC containers. I ran into some issues, the first one is that a lot of projects run smoother in docker and doesn't really have a "normal" way of being package... The second thing is related to the first one, since they are not really well implemented into the OS how can I make the updates?
So I wonder how people are deploying their stuffs on LXC proxmox's containers?
Thanks for your help!

EDIT : Tried to install docker upon debian LXC but the performances were absolutely terrible...

Yes, I know that the are dozens of notes apps. I'm looking for recommendations based on a few features that I like:

• nice design (including color coding)
• easy checklists
• sharing - this one is key. I use a shared shopping list and we both need to add and edit.
• pinning and archiving (hidden notes)

I don't mind running it from my homelab server, but that is not a requirement. Does anyone use a notes app that you love? Let me know!

As the title says...

Is this a risky thing?

EDIT: I have a wireguard VPN set up for myself and it's always on so I can access *arrs and the like. I would like to expose immich on my domain to share photo albums and such.

A lot of selfhosted containers instructions contain volume mounts like:

docker run ...
  -v /etc/timezone:/etc/timezone:ro \
  -v /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro \
  ...

but all the times I tried to skip those mounts everything seemed to work perfectly.

Are those mounts only necessary in specific cases?

PS:

Bonus question: other containers instructions say to define the TZ variable. Is that only needed when one wants a container to use a different timezone than the host?

Hi, I recently bought an Epson Ecotank ET-4850. Pretty happy actually with the printer itself, scanning quality is also quite good. However - it has a fatal flaw that i was not aware of.

I had an Epson WF-3620 that was able to scan to a folder, where Paperless-NGX then could do it's magic. The ET-4850 doesn't support scanning to a folder. It does support WSD, but that's not really convenient...

Is there a way to do all this with a Raspberry Pi or another device that's connected to the MFD?

I am introducing you Fast Music Remover (https://github.com/omeryusufyagci/fast-music-remover); a free and open source tool that filters internet media.

We consume, willingly or not, large amounts of media everyday, and that includes content that is emposed on us. I want to give you the choice to opt-out of them without missing out on the core content.

We're building a feature rich media processor that is efficient, modular and cross platform. It's being built for you! This means: clean and light APIs for programmers, containerized on GHCR for remote users, with a Web UI for anyone interested!

Today, we support background music filtering and noise removal to enhance audio quality. In the near future, we are looking at supporting multiple ML models as well as DSP modules to empower you with the tools you need to take control over the media you consume.

There is a demo video on the readme as well as clear instructions on how to use FMR. You can immediately start by getting the docker image available at: https://github.com/omeryusufyagci/fast-music-remover/pkgs/container/fast-music-remover

If you have any feedback at all, please let me know. Thank you!

Hi! I've posted on photofield here before - my self-hosted photo gallery software. There's been a bunch of changes since last time that you can check out in the CHANGELOG, but this is my first attempt to write about why I made it and how it's different! Any feedback is welcome!

I currently have two TVs, one I use an appleTV with and the other with a googleTV HD (device formerly known as Chromecast), but they both have issues.

The jellyfin app on appleTV is messed up, it fucks up audio and subs all the time, and in general has a hard time with media that has multiple audio tracks, not using the audio I select with the remote.

The googleTV just stutters with almost everything, direct stream or transcoded doesn't matter. All of my library is just 1080p, I have proper wifi to it, all mobile devices stream just fine.

So neither of these provide me with a solution that really works.

What solutions can you recommend, that allows for seamless navigation of jellyfin with my remote? I don't want anything resembling a mouse/keyboard combo for navigation whatsoever.

Edit: Solution

Yeah, thanks to u/[email protected] I contacted my ISP and found out that in fact they were blocking my port forwarding capabilities. I gave them a call and I had to pay for a public IP address plan and now it's just a matter of testing again. Thank you very much to everyone involved. I love you. It was Megacable by the way. If anyone from my country ever encounters the same problem I hope this post is useful to you.

Here's the original post:

Hey!

Ok, so I'm trying to figure this internet thing out. I may be stupid, but I want to learn.

So, what I'm essentially doing is trying to host my own raw html website on my own hardware and get it out to the internet for everyone to see (temporarily of course, I don't want to get in trouble with hackers and bots) I just want to cross that out of my bucket list.

What I've done so far:

• I set up a qemu/kvm virtual machine with debian as my server
• I configured a bridge so that it's available to my local network
• I got my raw html document
• I'm serving it locally with nginx
• I tried to set up port forwarding (I get stuck here)

Right now everyone in my home can see my ugly website if they go to 192.168.1.114:8080 (since I'm serving it through port 8080).

However, I want to be able to go outside (I'm testing it with my mobile network using mobile data) to see my website.

I've configured port forwarding on my ZTE router (ISP-issued) with the following parameters:

But now, if I search for my public IP address on my phone I don't get anything. Even if I go to my.public.ip.address:8080 (did you think I was gon-give you my public ip?)

I don't get anything. I've tried ping and curl. ping doesn´t even transmit the packages, curl says "Could not connect to server".

So, If you guys would be so kind as to point me in the right direction, I pose the following questions :

• How do I even diagnose this?
• What am I missing?
• Am I being too stupid?
• What do I do now?

(Here's a preview of my ugly website)

I also own a domain (with cloudflare) so, next step is getting that set-up with a DNS or something.

Thank youuuuuuu <3

Hi,

I've selfhosted Grav for two years going to three, but I want to move on to something else. I am looking for a flatfile CMS. I have experimented a bit and the best I found so far is Automad, but it isn't quite there. What alternatives can you recommend? PHP is where I am leaning.

Thanks.

Edit: Given my unclear query, I have struggled themeing. It has always been a pain and for whatever reason, documenting is somewhat unclear.

Hello,

I am trying to setup Authelia using apalrd tutorial.

In the configuration file, I need to setup a SMTP server to send email from.

I am currently using proton mail and they don't have smtp support out of the box, you have to go through their bridge.

I've tried to find tutorial on how to use Proton Bridge CLI to be able to use it as my SMTP locally, but the information seems scarce on that front. (keep in mind that I am no expert).

So my question is as follows : what are my option to have a functional SMTP configuration on my Authelia server?

Thank you
