Jellyfin letting me set a number of episodes to play before it stops. 👍
Not that nieche, I bet a lot of people wanted it. Kinda surprised it took til v12
I implemented the “frame seek” functionality using the
,and.keys a year back, was merged in v12. You're welcome.https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin-web/pull/7315
Huh, this is something I have never thought of, and I'm not really sure what it's for... but it sounds like the idea is that you say upfront "play me the next 3 episodes of this show", and then it plays 3 automatically, and after the third takes you back to the menu? Fascinating.
It's for people who use TV or spoken audio (podcast / radio show) as an environmental sleep aid / sleep cue. Electronics in general are suboptimal options for this but it's a common one that works well enough for some people.
They're falling asleep to it, but they're usually still kinda paying attention to the chronological plot, so they want it to keep their place just after they slip into unconsciousness so they can just rewind 30-60min and keep watching from where they were instead of waking up 8 hours and a full season into the show later.
Also some similar utility for people watching TV while doing chores who are just gonna kind of wander off near the end.
Wow, different worlds...
But I'm glad those people have a nice feature in Jellyfin now!
My college roommate used to play Family Guy on his laptop all night to help him sleep. It meant that I didn't get any sleep that entire semester.
For me it's an AuDHD thing that covers attention issues as well as sensory ones.
In my case, I don't listen to shows where I'd need this Jellyfin feature. It's usually videos of playthroughs or speedruns of old video games. It provides constant music while also having some progression to follow with the sound effects and changing tracks. So not unlike listening to a show in that sense.
Having something to pay attention to keeps my mind from racing and keeps me from worrying about whether I'm falling asleep fast enough.
And for whatever neurological reason, having constant sounds in my ears is soothing. In the same way quiet game sounds help me get to sleep, having some loud thrash metal in my ears helps me focus and get things done whether it's writing code or doing yard work.
My personal theory is that audio-based stimulus helps press the pause button on my non-stop internal dialogue.
Night shift psych is kinda like specifically being a sleep specialist lol. My personal sleep cue is a raging thunderstorm. Honestly I wish I had more options for providing sleep ambiance to patients but the institutional setting is notoriously stingy. What I really wanna know is why men sleep with their hands in their pants / over their genitals. It doesn't read as arousal most of the time, so it must just be a regular comfort thing somehow.
For me - it’s cats. They know exactly where to jump on the bed while I’m asleep. I try to side sleep now but if I’m on my back I’m protecting 😂
Hmm, interesting! I'm a man myself, and to the best of my knowledge don't sleep with my hands near my groin. So it feels like maybe whatever it is, either the discomfort of the situation, or the cause of the situation, might lead to it in some way?
Your post leaves me with a lot of questions. But as for the hand in pants thing, they probably had siblings or roommates at some point who thought it was funny to wake people up by tagging them in the balls.
