I’d like to prioritize bandwidth for trackers where ratio is hard and de-prioritize trackers where almost everything is freeleech. Is there a way to do this?

I didn't know this existed until recently so I just wanted to share. Jellyfin recently began supporting syncing your lyrics to the music in Jellyfin, natively! It is insanely easy to set it up, too. Basically, the way it works is you need a specific filetype *.lrc (that is basically a timestamped text file) which already has the lyrics and timestamps in it. You give that lrc file the same name as your audio file and Jellyfin will automatically read that as the lyrics. It is that easy.

You can get lrc files a bunch of different ways but all of them involve retrieving them from the same database, lrc.net.

1. You can go to the website and manually pull them (probably time consuming though).
2. There is an official package for mass-downloading these lrc files. Don't expect 100% accuracy but it's pretty damn good, maybe an error rate of 10ish percent. This is what I use.
3. The Jellyfin team is working on an official plugin, but caveat emptor, it is still a WIP.
4. There is this pretty slick script for MusicBrainz Picard. I've tried it and it works well if you want to use tags. Reading timestamps within the lyrics tag isn't supported by Jellyfin yet, but it probably will be in future releases.

Imho, this is a really big feature and I hope 3rd party clients start supporting it soon! If you know of any 3p audio clients that support synced lyrics, please comment them!

I know how to do it on a bare-metal installation. But on the Docker version, I can't figure out how to create a brand new torrent. Can someone help me out?

I'm looking to download a number of educational youtube videos for future reference. Looking for a reliable way to download videos. OS is Ubuntu. FF extensions and docker containers all good. I don't really want to install an executable on bare metal unless it is a flatpak.

My goal is for the downloaded videos to be accessed locally via jellyfin. Jellyfin is already sorted.

Thanks in advance for your recommendations!

These groups do most mainstream shows with similar settings so when should you choose one over the other?

Image is from the Gnome Software Updater. JF MP is installed via Flatpak on Linux. Can anyone tell me what is going on?

If so, how do you configure that?

I have some Gnome extensions that are great but also have some bloatware that I’ve accumulated over the years.

Is it worth wiping the drive and doing a fresh install for Fedora 40?

What do you think?

I'm new to Soulseek. Got my Nicotine+ docker set up w/ VPN through gluetun. I'm good to go. Port forwarding is working correctly and I'm sharing a little over 100GB of flacs that I have ripped personally with EAC and a couple people have downloaded some of my stuff, which is really cool. I don't have privileges rn.

But I there are a lot of albums that I've lost over the years that I see on SoulSeek. I want them. But I want to make sure I don't get blocked or banned. So, say a person has 3-5 whole albums that I want. Is it proper to just download them all at once? I've seen things like this on one person's profile page:

If you start browsing my share like it is a shop and queueing everything you come across e.g. whole artist folders, I will just remove you.

So a little guidance from this community would make me feel a little more confident?
