Hmmmm. I wonder if you uninstall and reinstall the app, would the same page appear? I’m not near my appleTV so I can’t see if my sessions were a fluke. I’ve used it twice this last week.

Mine’s working just fine. Why isn’t infuse free tier working for you?

Hey @MDCCCLV@lemmy.ca, I just wanted to let you know that I bought a 4k UHD movie the other day and my blu-ray player that I updated the firmware on could not play the disc as well.

I found answers online pointing to updating my volume unique keys (VUK). These keys are necessary to decrypt the discs. To make a long story short, there is a database online that you can use to update your keys to read your 4k UHD disc. I used this script in particular because I was able to echo the output the HTTP website. I didn’t want to click on a link that is not using HTTPS.

I’m using linux so this was the solution that worked for me. I think there are other ways to update these keys. If you do go this route of using this bash script, please keep in mind that it’s going to be a few hours. The transfer speed was in the kilobytes. Towards the end of my patience, I just hit ctrl-c to skip the keys for other nations that I don’t see myself using.

Once all was done, I was able to get VLC to run my 4k film on my PC :)

I’ve stored them in a TV cabinet for years. Nothing special. I’ve created a Jellyfin server so if I was burning my DVD and blu-ray already, I may as well back up to files. And to point out austinfloyd’s comment, disc rot was the other reason to back up the DVDs.

Also don’t go with an Asustor 1102TL. I can’t access the BIOS so I can’t flash open media vault. I had a whole plan to have an automated Borg backup script running on the NAS but alas, I guess not. If someone can prove me wrong, please let me know.

I recently got into the rabbit hole of digitizing my DVDs after discovering that disc rot is very real. I bought an LG blu-ray external driver, followed steps to flash firmware, bought a MakeMKV license to support the software, and bought a NAS to run a RAID 1 configuration to hold the backups of the DVDs.

I do think with Netflix buying out Warner Bros, optical media will take a hit. But companies like the Criterion Collection keeps optical media alive. Also CDs are alive and well when it comes to music.

Running Jellyfin off of a Dell Optiplex 3060 and encoding all of my media in AV1. I’m able to stream my movies just fine via the Apple TV.

Uhh I haven’t tried password sharing with Tidal.

They would need to have their own Tidal accounts. You would then add their Tidal account to your family plan. Once done, they can use the service on their own personal devices by logging with their accounts.

The company, Helsing, pledges to only sell towards democratic governments. I think it’s a very slippery slope. In my opinion, once you’ve taken a step towards the military industrial complex, you are the military industrial complex.

I’m not sure how much funding came from the profits of Spotify. It could have come from other investments. Ultimately, you have Spotify leadership involved in a defence company that makes drones. Ethically, I don’t like my money going towards someone who invests in this.

I’ve been using Tidal for over a year now. I’ve been digging the FLAC streams. $17 a month for my family plan. Up to 6, including yourself. And yes, Splashdown is on Tidal.

A little late to this comment but there are some assembly videogames out! They are puzzles and gives you the gist of how assembly works.

I really enjoyed TIS-100. I just never got around to beating it.

Here’s a neat video about the creator and the game - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0JouTsMQsEA

I have used a this snap clip key ring all my life to hold my keys. This one comes with a chain but you can just get rid of that.
