Star Wars Memes

Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.

==========

Other universes to visit:

!lotrmemes@midwest.social

!tenforward@lemmy.world

Separatist systems:

!prequelmemes@lemmy.world

Oh hey some real SW content for a change (perhaps):

!star_wars@lemmy.world

!starwars@lemmy.ml

!starwarstelevision@lemmy.world

==========

IMPORTANT

Please do not post the "good friend" or similar copypasta

==========

Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.

The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:

  1. This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.

  2. We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.

  3. As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!

  4. Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.

  5. Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).

  6. Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.

  7. Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.

You can get going with Jellyfin if you want a alternative

First setup Jellyfin on a old computer. (Preferabllly Intel with hardware acceleration) https://jellyfin.org/docs/general/quick-start/

For content follow the following:

Buy the bluray -> rip with MakeMKV -> transcode with Handbreak -> copy into Jellyfin -> update metadata

About how long would you say

rip with MakeMKV -> transcode with Handbreak -> copy into Jellyfin -> update metadata

takes? I have a lot of movies.

The step that takes the longest is the "transcode with Handbrake" one. On my fairly slow mobile Ryzen 7, it takes about an an hour and a half.

The thing is, you can tweak settings in Handbrake to be faster at the expense of video quality and/or file size.

What I do is to set up a bunch of files and let Handbrake run overnight. In the morning, everything's done and I can work on the next batch. It helps that I work from home.

Ripping from disc takes about 20 minutes. Copying is as fast as your network. Updating metadata can be done whenever.
