What do you mean you adopted a cat and wasn’t planning to stay with her?
30 years is extreme and she may not have even been using while driving.
I’m having success with TubeSync through docker compose.
Ooh nice. I need to figure out some other type of bulb. The ones I have are TP Link Tapo Wifi and they’re too unreliable.
Oh and you can put Adguard on home assistant too as an add on.
I started my home assistant journey with 4 smart globes, a Google home speaker with a pi 4. I learned how to use it and started integrating things I don’t need hardware for, such as shopping/Todo lists, weather, Spotify, last.fm, calendars, basically anything I can learn without hardware. Right now I’m working on getting a shopping list sent to me when I enter the shops zone.
Then I bought a bunch of NFC tags (they’re cheap) for medication reminders, kitty litter reminders/tracking. I have a music poster in my house I’ve stuck an NFC tag to and it opens up the album on Spotify, turns on Bluetooth and connects to my speaker.
I’ve slowly been adding more devices as I go along due to cost constraints. Not that smart home stuff is expensive, I just can’t afford to do it all at once. Which also gives me time to consider/research smart devices before I buy.
100% recommend. It’s addicting actually.
Yeah I tried to get that working but couldn’t get it going for some reason.
Yeah both my mobile and internet are with Optus haha
I have Lidarr on Steroids to automate downloads. It uses Deemix to download automatically. Deemix will download in MP3 with a free Deezer subscription, but if you want FLAC you need the premium suscription, or the month trial.
In Lidarr you can import a spotify playlist and it will add all the artists for you, which then downloads through Deemix. You can even download the entire discography if you like. Plus extras like album art.
For streaming I use Airsonic from my PC, then the Substreamer app on my android for the front end. You can create playlists in here and can also download songs on your device for offline play.
When I’m done downloading the majority of my playlists Artists and want to get rid of the Deezer subscription, I’ll probably switch to Usenet and Soulseek to download.
It payed off today, we had a mobile/internet outage for most of the day and I was still able to stream music.
Nice work. Glad you got something working for ya!
I second this but I use Lidarr on Steroids, as that’s the one I could get working. I also chose to subscribe to Deezer for a month or two so I can download everything in lossless/FLAC using my own arl. Then I’ll cancel it. After that I’ll probably go to soulseek and manually download.
Two witches and a cat in the middle that rules them.
Nice build. That is a lovely case by the way! Not too exxy either.
What’s the benefit of 12th gen? Over say 9th or 10th? I need weigh up if It’s worth saving up for as it’s a little out of my budget right now. Most I’ll be running is 2-3 1080p streams at home.
Thank you for all of this. You are right, I do have a set up currently. It’s an old repurposed amd PC which is fine for direct play but it stuggles to transcode. I want to use ErsatzTV which needs transcodng and it can’t handle it. It’s all set up through docker-compose on Linux Mint which has been fine so far (first Linux distro). You’ve gotten me quite interested in Unraid/OMV though.
Other containers I run are Immich, Mealie, Dozzle, Tubesync as well as the arr stack. Likely to run more containers (you know how it is). Current PC sits on about 10-12 GB ram.
I’m in Australia if that helps, little more pricey than US, harder to get parts and I definitely have had decision paralysis. in saying that though, all your comments have given me clarity for a plan.
Thank you for your very thorough reply. I will read up on all this now!
Thanks for that, have also considered this. What would be the benefit of going this way?
What a lad
