One of the drives I connected using a new HBA, I guess that could be it. The pool is mounting and the data seems largely intact.

Thanks, will do!

yeah Im still learning about how SAS controllers work. I only learned what IT and IR mode are after replying.

Nice, hope it helps. I was really surprised by how difficult it was to find out the cause of the issus, but maybe my search skills were just failing me. I’m glad the fix is so simple.

All good, was an easy detail to miss.

I’m not.

That’s what I’ll be doing, I had to order some tape first. Just a bit inconvenient to have to do it for 8 cables lol.

It seems most likely that the PWDIS issue is at fault here. I’ll need to try a tape mod to confirm.

I am attaching a SATA power cable to the connector, I believe it should be able to provide that power. The same SATA power connector is capable of powering other drives. I’ll look into that feature.

They are SAS drives, these cables wouldn’t connect

I’ve never used Findroid, but they work on my regular Jellyfin app. I think on Roku transcoding is required, but afaik that’s on Roku not supporting the subtitle format.

I now extract all my subs, but for the first 2 years using it I left everything embedded and it always worked normally. Even with some advanced ones like Jujutsu Kaisen and One Pace, which both use stylized ones.

Yes. You set hardware encoding to QSV, then you’re mostly set. You can choose which formats it should work on, which for an Arc card will probably be all of them. I got an Arc A380 and its worked flawlessly with many streams at once.

Fair enough, not saying you should bother with it, just surprised to hear it happening.

I genuinely do not understand the issues people are having with Jellyfin subtitles. I just have Bazarr set up to automatically download and they play on every device (web, android, iOS, roku, android TV) with zero issues.

Embedded subtitles definitely work, and I’ve used bitmap ones before, although I generally avoid them so I’m not sure if they consistently work well. Directly playback also does work with those subtitles, so if you had issues it was likely related to codec support.

Benevolent dictator for life, but honestly your interpretation gets the same message across.

Supporting Republicans (probably because they’re porn bans drive VPN purchases), adding AI features and a crypto wallet while their drive still lacks basic features, and some other smaller stiff like their shitty article about Deepseak.

Its not antithetical to the Foss philosophy. Thus happens because Linus is a trusted figure, something he’s absolutely earned. He didn’t just buy control of some product, or get promoted to this position by a company. Many great open source projects have a BDFL. If people lose their trust in the projects BDFL, they fork the project.

Also, the kernel is really just one part of Linux. Distros include a whole bunch of software they choose to deliver a full OS (hence the Gnu+Linux people). Linus doesn’t have control over the OS as a whole, just the kernel.

Edit: Just finished reading the chain, what do you mean the dude did a 180? He expressed frustration that Linux only criticized him, further criticized the issues with the kernel development process, and said he was giving up being part of the kernel.

It is
