Phone wouldn’t work for me, I’ve got a strict no phone around the TV rule for myself because I’m way too tempted to just use it instead of enjoying the thing I’m watching. Also wouldn’t really want to put an Xbox controller onto my wife or step mother.

I wish there was some kind of application you could run that would abstract all the mouse and keyboard interactions into a remote control friendly interface.

Anyway to do this without a keyboard. I used to have a PC connected to my TV for this but eventually just bought an apple tv for simplicity.

There’s a link in their Read Me on GitHub under the title about launching with Docker. Are you familiar with Docker?

Looks like you can’t self host it right now?

Good to hear. I’ll give it a shot, thanks!

Just to add some details to that link, it’s a network streaming app that lets you remote into another machine and depending on your network configuration it’s often fast and responsive enough to play games (I played through Celeste which is a very twitchy precision platformer with no issues). It’s also just cool streaming something like Cyberpunk on ultra settings to your phone. There are moonlight clients for nearly any device.

To host moonlight you used to be able to just do it natively through Nvidia gamestream but they turned that feature off. You can use Sunshine now to host https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine

Yea, looks like infuse does a good job at just playing the movie both in folder format or ISO which is cool. Instantly recognized the movie. No menus unfortunately :/

Think I might just be barking up a nonexistent tree

Thanks! I’ll give it a shot

Can you explain a bit about Kodi playing the discs? I’ve been toying around with this all morning but can’t figure out how to launch the ripped disc. I’ve setup my network files and browsed to the folder with the ripped disc but there’s no way I can see to actually open the folder as a disc that I can see and googling this has failed me.

I don’t think jellyfin can open bluray discs can it?

Yea I tried this, I think the app versions of VLC only open single files, they didn’t port the open disc feature.

Space isn’t really an issue for me and I already have converted versions of these movies. For a select few all time favorites and discs where the full experience is part of the package (like the Criterion) I want to maintain the full bluray experience with all the special features and menus.

That’s how IMAP works for any mail client

I’ve done this in the past using Gmail. You pick a domain provider and get their email plan. Most offer both services. I’ve used name cheap.

Then in your regular Gmail account you can configure the IMAP settings from the domain registrar to receive the email from that inbox. Then in Gmail find the settings where you can send as another address. This lets you use that new address in our outbound mail. From there I just auto label the incoming mail to help sort the two addresses.

Now you should have your regular Gmail and your new novelty email all in one place.

The guy walked into a room and asked for help. He got as much help as the community could offer. One guy in the back of the room was snarky. Everyone else in the room reprimands this person with downvotes. Op creates a smear campaign against the entire community walks back in the room and calls everyone dickheads. The room tries to reason with Op. Op doubles down on their position.

This is a self inflicted wound.

Bitchy follow-up thread

If you notice the original thread really only has one mean comment which the community collectively downvoted. Then op comes back with their knickers in a twist calling the whole community bad.
