Yeah agree. They’re kind of sold as a cure all, which they’re not, but if you have a very specific problem they’ll help. I think the thing is a lot of times people use them without addressing the root cause. But it’s definitely saved me a deep clean before.
To each their own and all that, but for my time, I agree with you Plex still has the edge in UI by a wide margin. The advertised content is super annoying but it is possible to trim it.
also, after implementing my pi-hole, I’m not crazy about the fact plex keeps trying to send out analytics.
I thought the mechanics in Witcher 3 were clunky, the fighting was a bit repetitive, and I don’t really like fantasy… and that game is still one of my all time favorites.
Thank you for the tips! It turns out the files weren’t corrupted at all, it was a transcoding issue somewhere in the hardware acceleration stack. I’ve disabled it which will cause some bottlenecks, but there’s more than enough processing power in the rig for the limited amount of people that use it simultaneously.
Thank you for the reply and the links though! My original plan was NOT to fix the files, just to figure out which had an issue and re-download them. Like I said it turns out that was unnecessary.
Thanks all the same for pointing me to that thread. I do want to start screwing around with some imagine manipulation at some point, and this has already been really educational in learning the top level flow of this kind of thing. Again, I’m more used to passing data for sensors and motors.
