For Music and streaming, specially for hi-res audio. SACD etc streaming, take a look at lyrion music server. The best solution of the myriad I tried self-hosting. Supports podcasts and audiobooks as well

Md also the sharpen workflow is now next-level. Very noticeable improvement!

I replaced (sold) my coral usb late last year after using it for 3 years. I upgraded my home server and wanted to go M.2 and noticed that frigate started to support a new chip, with many times the performance of the coral. I went with a Hailo-8. It's been flawless.

Recommendation: use the .deb driver that Hailo provides, it gets installed via dkms and survives kernel updates.

I have been using my hdplex h5 for 9 years now (!!!), went through many builds. My current desktop is a 13900T with an RTX 3060, all fanless; 99% of the time, it's been great. I realize after such a long time that on occasion (1% of the time), I want all the compute power that this build has and I can't extract it from this build due to thermal throttling. The motherboard is a bit old (h670) and I need thunderbolt. So now I'm planning to use the opportunity that the motherboard upgrade brings to "semi-silent" or "silent almost all of the time", with a Jonsbo Z20 + NH-P1, keeping the CPU but using an ITX z790 mobo I bought in ebay. Planning to inlcude an undervolted gtx 5060Ti dual fan with "0dba support" (no fans below 50 degrees), and two noctuas, intake at the bottom of the case and exhaust at the rear. Fanless PSU (seasonic, 500w). My desktop OS is linux. Home desktop machine. A little steam gaming. A lot of photo editing (#darktable) Anybody in the community with experience in nh-p1 / semi-silent builds that can share real-world experience, will it able to handle 106W (13900T peak) keeping the CPU below throttling?

I'd think one needs a half decent car to be able to show speed. Or do the comparison with his peer in the team. For the former he showed something with Williams. For the latter, he is not far from Gasly, with a decade less experience. But yes clearly a rookie and a lot to learn

Espresso fan here. Context - I've been preparing my daily espresso-based drink for some 15 years at home. I realized that most of these years, I've sourced beans from darkcity coffee. For the first few yeas, every now and then I would try neighbourhood roasters or even some Vancouver-based ones but either price was unreasonable or the consistency was lacking. For the last 5 years or so, I didn't try any other seller. Lately, price has gone up considerably as well. Time to explore. Maybe source locally in GTA; Etobicoke/Mississauga/West end - where I can pick up freshly roasted beans. Any recommendations?

These days my morning shot goes in a Cortado; with an occasional afternoon solo shot. My setup includes a great barista vario W grinder (12 years old and going strong!) and an ECM technika iv. Full-bodied, flavorfull, excellent crema is what I am after.

This project shows a lot of promise and I am following it. I run HomeAssistant as well in my home server. At this time though (or:last time I checked) it didn't support cuesheets at all, it fell a little short for my use case.

For doing Kodi GUI setup changes in a headless setup in the RPis remotely, I use a VNC server installed in them that I start on-demand (when needed), e.g dispmanx. Needing this is a once-in-a-few-years type event, but yes you need this installed just in case.

My use case: collection based on single-flac + cuesheets, thousands, many of which are HD. Setup: all the music is in an NFS share in my HTPC, which also runs Kodi (flatpak) for both video and audio media. That machine is connected to my main audio setup via USB DAC.

The Kodi music DB is hosted externally in mariaDB in the same server. I use 2 headless Kodi (OSMC) clients with HiFiBerry DACs as streamers around the house, using the same DB/media. Lastly I also have an Nvidia Shield running Kodi also exposing the same collection/DB.

Over the years I have tested many alternatives, including navidrome, volumio, and others, but they all struggle handling my music collection, choke processing cuesheets or don't even support them, or can't handle NFS reliably or at all, or can't process 24 bit content etc.

I couldn't find any solution nearly as reliable, performant or flexible as this one. I use this setup pretty much daily. With incremental improvements, it's been running for more than 10 years.

Each Kodi client can be managed via its web interface (a little dated but fully functional and reliable), amd via Android app (I use Yatse).

The main server also exposes the music collection via DLNA.

I looked at jellyfin/Plex in the past as well but for muy use case, it's over-complicated and didn't add value.

Colapinto saved his head possibly. Good for him resisting all the pressure

Fair comment, I should qualified my answer: I use an ssh tunnel with auto-reconnect option, wrapped inside a systemd service. In all this years, I still have to run into a problem that wasn't external (server down, no internet at home etc) I agree that wireguard is the proper solution however it requires a lot of extra configuration and support in both ends, which now is prevalent but not so much 5+ years ago. Also for a single port solution, ssh is so much simpler, practical and reliable, you only need an ssh user at the other end.

ExecStart=/usr/bin/ssh -NT -o ServerAliveInterval=60 -o ServerAliveCountMax=3 -o ExitOnForwardFailure=yes -R localhost:YOUR_PORT:localhost:YOUR_PORT SOME_USER@YOUR_SERVER
