  • I’ve really wanted to ditch JPEG. It’s a 34 year old format.

    The problem is that AVIF, JPEG-XL and HEIC/HEIF don’t work in many places. At a minimum I would want them to display in my gallery app (currently Nextcloud memories), display in a browser, and have native support at an OS level (i.e thumbnail previews). Neither format comes close to this.

    I may even move away from Nextcloud over it. I didn’t want to deploy docker just for immich (I love LAMP, btw). However Nextcloud is SO MUCH maintenance compared to the 50 other services running on my server.







  • I wonder if anyone ever wrote an update aggregator that would find all package managers, containers and git repos and whatnot and just do all of them.

    Some are a right pain to update, such as Nextcloud. Installing a monthly update should not feel like an enterprise prod deployment.

    It’s kinda ironic that package managers have caused the exact problem that they are supposed to solve.



  • Just start listening to dubstep and you’ll stop noticing 😆.

    Maybe run lm-sensors and make sure the CPU/GPU isn’t being thermothrottled? I’d usually look at dmesg and look for red stuff. Any hardware issues are usually pretty obvious.

    Try other apps. If you youtube or VLC behaves the same, the problem may be outside of jellyfin. If not, it narrows it down.

    If could even be the server not being able to transcode in realtime. Try watching a file known to already be in a suitable format. It should direct stream and be much less load on the server. I’ve seen server encode CPU saturation and it does kinda look the same as client decode stutter. If it’s the server, you’ll probably see the same stutter from another device such as a phone.
