Favorite scifi concept? in c/sciencefiction@lemmy.world
[–] vgnmnky@lemmy.world 2 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Yes, especially the first book, thought that was excellent. Less so for me the third one, and I haven't read the fourth one yet.

Recommendations for music-setup? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world
[–] vgnmnky@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

This is my approach too. I use Moode Audio on a Pi at home, linked to my mini server. Same server syncs (with Syncthing) all of my music to my phone's SD card. I have Jellyfin on the server too and my music library is available there, but I just use that for video.

Added Service Model to my wishlist, thanks for the tip!

Absolutely loved Children of Time, really liked Children of Ruin, was very disappointed with Children of Memory. And that carried into Alien Clay, which was a real slog for me to get through, and burnt through the considerable credit he had in the bank from Children of Time. It started off ok. Reminded me of something else I read a long time ago, but I can't pin it down. I might go back to something before Children of Time when I have the energy to give him another chance, but I have a decent reading pile waiting for me for now.

Setting up Filestash with Dropbox (lemmy.world)
 

Hi. I've installed Filestash in a Docker container, which included passing a previously generated Dropbox access token to Filestash, as per the yaml file on the gihub page.

  • DROPBOX_CLIENT_ID=<dropbox_key>

When I connect to Filestash (just set up locally for now), and then click to connect to Dropbox, I get the following error from the Dropbox webpage that opens:

**Error (400) It seems the app you were using submitted a bad request. If you would like to report this error to the app's developer, include the information below.

More details for developers

Invalid client_id: .**

There's nothing that looks like an error in the Filestash logs. I've generated new tokens and tried again, same result.

Has anyone managed to add Dropbox to Filestash, and if so, would you mind explaining the steps you took?

(I've since set it up for external access via my domain, and npm, same error).

Thanks Rob

Music Player container (lemmy.world)

I currently have a Raspberry Pi (with DAC) in my room attached to an amp and speakers, with Moode Audio installed on it, and it's perfect, been using it for many years. I can use plenty of MPD clients, or go through the web gui, and the sound outputs from the Pi itself.

I have similar hardware downstairs, except instead of a Pi, I have an x86 Dell thin client, with various Docker containers running on it. I'd like something that does the same job as Moode Audio (which is unfortunately ARM only), and outputs the sound directly from the host.

I've set up a Jellyfin container, and it's a great bit of software (will keep it for TV and movies), but doesn't allow me to output sound from the Dell PC itself. Is there a plugin or some other config that would let me do this? I'm aware that Airsonic would probably work (installed it, but not full tested it yet), but I much prefer the look and feel of Moode and Jellyfin, especially as it's not just for my use.

Does anyone have a similar set up?

Thanks

[edit: I can install Mopidy-Jellyfin, and cast to that. It works within the Jellyfin gui, and outputs from host. Would prefer something in a container (had to install directly on the Linux server) and I'm still looking, but I have something that works.
