I'm sure you could catch the majority of the Windows 10 telemetry though by just leaving an idle machine running and keeping a record of all the sessions it initiated and then denying them at an external firewall. You can set up a WSUS target that goes nowhere if you have at least the pro edition. That will prevent a lot of the auto-updates as well.

Are there any out there who have used either the HiFiberry Digi+ or JustBoom Digi pHATs? After ridiculous amounts of testing and futzing around I'm pretty sure my TV just can't passthrough audio streams over HDMI to my amplifier, so I can only use SPDIF/Toslink for surround sound with TV/Movies using LibreELEC.

Blocking all network traffic works but it has a few downsides. As soon as you run Windows update it's going to do whatever it wants with whatever it has been storing.

apropos man posted:I read somewhere (probably these forums) that they were gonna start baking ads into the video themselves. Probably when the technology is quick enough to do it ad-hoc with millions of videos per minute. So the ad becomes part of the video and it's impossible for a machine to make a discretion. I think it's an industry where a 1% click through rate is fantastic, so you're justifying it with that number. And then there's the ad currency of "impressions." But I'm being cheeky. I can tell you that I was on vacation and just trying to check the news on a dang phone was an angrifying abomination of ad garbage, and that's just to load the headlines.

Cross post from the networking thread in case you guys have some better ideas than what I've come up with: Twerk from Home posted:I could ask this in the Linux thread, Raspberry Pi thread, or here, but what I'd really like is a way to make UDP multicast not suck over wifi, so I'll ask here first. I'd really like multicast RTP to work over wifi.... but it doesn't.

Twerk from Home posted:Cross post from the networking thread in case you guys have some better ideas than what I've come up with: Have you looked into NetJack? Audio over ethernet is a fairly mature technology (I'm most familiar with Dante in a pro audio setting) and there should be at least some option available that works with AES67 for multicast audio distribution that is still open source. It's not likely you will find something that works well with wifi that isn't icecast, low-latency layer 3 audio networking is pretty dependent on wired networking for proper playback . E: my Dante networks pretty much require gigabit wired networks for < 10ms latency network streams that are multicast. They are also flagged as VOIP packets for QoS routing priority over regular traffic. Also many wireless routers filter multicast packets so that may be something else to look at. ickna fucked around with this message at 06:58 on Dec 25, 2016 |

Does anyone have any experience running a Plex server on a pi 3? Specifically if it can handle transcoding (standard def MPEG 2 and HD MPEG 4)? The media library would be wired Ethernet instead of USB if that makes a difference.

evil_bunnY posted:Wired ethernet won't help because it's on the USB bus anyway. Yeah I realised that after posting  To be clear, this would just be to access the plex web interface over a phone/other computer, not to view the media on the Pi - just transcode it where necessary.

I want a device which would be used exclusively as an airplay server for audio. It would output via RCA to my parents' living room receiver. My parents would use it to play music via their iPhones or iTunes, and bluetooth is 100% not an option. What I want is for them to press the 'Music' button on their Harmony remote (to set the receiver to the rca audio input) and select 'Living Room' as output on their phone/pc and to have things work. Would a pi or pi2 work for this?

Flashing an OpenELEC/LibreELEC image to the Pi and enabling Airplay should suffice. As for the quality of sound  I have poo poo hearing so I don't really know if a DAC makes it sound better, I think most of that Audiophile poo poo is snake oil. The most you might need is a 3.5mm wire->Reciever adapter on the wire provided you're not just running it via HDMI.

Libav is there on Raspbian jessie, and ffmpeg there on stretch. As I've found out though, the CPU just doesn't have the grunt to use x264 at reasonable settings in anything approaching real time.

As I've found out though, the CPU just doesn't have the grunt to use x264 at reasonable settings in anything approaching real time. I've only looked at Rasplex, which states in their FAQ that "While it is possible to run Plex Media Server on a Raspberry Pi, there are limitations, for example, no transcoding". Then looking on Reddit people are reporting that Plex haven't made transcoding available on the ARM architecture, so it looks like an intentional limitation by them. I assume Kodi would do it, but I'm only interested in running a server and not a frontend - I've just set up plex on an Ubuntu VM on my desktop instead and it's happily transcoding there.

Thermopyle posted:Does emby? This suggests that transcoding is enabled on emby but ffmpg can only do about 15fps, so not real time. I'd imagine that's why Plex outright disabled it. Interestingly it turns out that even if you've bought an mpeg2 licence to do hardware decoding on the pi, emby doesn't recognise it and so does all mpeg2 playback in software only.

It's probably primarily an issue with interfacing to the codec acceleration on the Pi's GPU, more than anything. Many early setups for GPU video codec acceleration on PCs years back couldn't make use of it for transcoding, making it so either the encoding or decoding was all on the CPU. This doesn't tend to be as big of a problem now, but could definitely still be cropping up with the Pi and similar small ARM devices.

I have issues with my raspberry pis SD cards corrupting after blackouts and other events. I use it to run several things so it's a pain in the butt when it dies and I have to recompile all my stuff. Would eMMC be a solution? And if so would it be dooable on a raspberry pi 2 or 3 with ubuntu 16.04? Otherwise are there any other solutions?

1) Better quality SD cards should be better at managing brown outs without data loss 2) Lock down your filesystem so that nothing unimportant is being written most of the time 3) Use a BBB or something that uses eMMC, which can also copy images to SD as backup and restore from that
