  • Using the Ecobee thermostat, I use the built in weather module in Home Assistant to give local weather data to the system. In summer, I set it up to watch for the lowest overnight temps via forecast, and trigger on the lowest temperatures we’d see. Then I’d drop the house temp to 66 or 64 degrees when the AC had to do the least amount of work. Then I’d use the basement air to keep the upstairs cool enough and use the AC as little as possible.

    My last house was old and had some drafts I couldn’t find. So in the winter, if the weather turned to windy I’d increase the temp a degree or two for comfort.






  • I would think the Jellyfin logs would say if it deleted something. But I have to say, I cannot fully understand GUID and PUID in all cases. But you can try to subtract 1 digit from PUID (100 to 99) and then try to delete a show or movie within Jellyfin’s interface. If it won’t do it, then you’ve got the permissions at least where it can’t delete things. It is possible to not view things as well, so it might take some research or trial and error and make sure you write down where it is now. But, it will remove one factor at least.













  • One of the issues with multiple devices is networking. Transferring totally legit files for the Arr stack to and from the NAS can be a lot of data. Keeping it all in one system means your speeds up to that point are SATA speeds vs ethernet.

    For the OP, one file with hard linking is my goal, but I only use Usenet. I rip anything that comes down with Tdarr to strip languages, normalize audio and rip to H265. If you do that with torrents, you will need to keep the original for seeding.


  • Have you set up jellyfish at your home, given access to a friend outside of your network who could not setup Jellyfin themselves, and successfully got them playing on their TV, table tablet, and/or phone? Have you been able to set them up without them having to call you every week?

    Yes. It’s very easy. It might not have used to be easy but it is for the last couple of years. Dead simple. About a dozen people use my Jellyfin server across TV’s, phones, tablets, laptops. None of them are what I would call techies. It’s as simple for them as Netflix.
