  • So in this case, even if your hardware was impacted by this, if you tried to play a H.265 (HEVC) file within Windows, it would play, but will software encode / decode. What if you are playing something through a client like VLC or Jellyfin Media Player? Prior to this change, would Jellyfin report Direct Playing (using iGPU) and now it will be forced to transcode on the server side, and VLC would still use the CPU for encoding and decoding, since there is no server to do it for you?

    Just so you know, after you “complete” the game and are returned to the main menu, there’s still a bit of content left, so be sure to continue your save. Though it’s pretty obvious, I still missed it until I started watching a video about the game and realized I wasn’t finished.

    Looks like there are currently four “clubs”. Each club has an album release every month. Are the tracks all released by the same artists (new material) or do they select current tracks on Bandcamp to feature in their monthly list? If it’s the latter, then it’d be closer to humble monthly but it’s DRM-free and you get to keep what was available to you when you were subscribed, even after unsubscribing.

    I think my ideal scenario would be a spin-off of this idea, where you pay a monthly fee to select, say, five artists on Bandcamp. For the month you would be able to download all of their content, and the monthly fee is split between the five artists. With this it just seems random, but if you are looking for new content, it may be nice.

    I also use Jellyfin. Before being able to set custom tag delimiters, you had to ensure your music artists and album artists ID3 tags were correct. I believe it used a ‘;’ to separate multiple artists. Now with custom delimiters you can set your own. You may be able to try and fix things by setting ‘feat.’ as a custom tag.

    Ultimately, I would recommend just using mp3tag and spending a few minutes setting up an action that replaces ‘feat.’ with a delimiter, such as a ‘|’. Run it through your current library and you should be good.

    Thanks! I thought most people don’t use navidrome if they have multiple users because they can’t create user-specific playlists. Is this not the case? What music features do you find limiting on Jellyfin? Also, how did you get your family to switch off music streaming for your navidrome server?
