Nice ones! These look very affordable, might consider them as the pocket everyday ones :)

Bang & Olufsen

Just checked the price of these, my wallet started screaming on the other room. Holy cow, these are some beautifully pricey headphones!

Thanks a lot! That's...and idea I would have never considered. Sadly, I don't have any 3D printer available around :(

Thanks for the heads-up about the app. I'm a GrapheneOS user, and so permissions are important, but on a headset....well, I basically don't bother installing the app, to begin with. I have another profile for bullshit apps, where my Sony headset app resides, and basically that's only to upgrade the firmware...which lately has been to add assistant functions only, and so I haven't even bothered. SO...yeah, thanks, but I wasn't probably going to install the app in the first place :)

Thanks, and sorry for the slow response! I'm thinking as something to wear during the commute, so I guess these wouldn't cut it with the mic in there. My bad for not mentioning it in the post, didn't consider the existence of gaming headsets!

If your Jellyfin collection starts to grow big enough, and x264 transcoding on the fly is as easy as passing through the GPU these days...it's pretty much a no brainer. You have small files, and if someone still needs x264 (which would need to be specifically a Firefox streamer, as I believe Chrome supports it, and the Jellyfin apps also support it if your computer/phone does), the transcoding on the fly can be done using about 1-2% of the server CPU. I did something like 12 simultaneous different transcodes once, and my oldish i5 9500T held its ground perfectly, I think it reached about 35% CPU at the peak of it.

Hmmm what do you mean the video kept crashing? Where is your server set up? What are you using for OS? Is it bare metal, is it running in a Windows, in a VM, in a container?

In my case it's running in a Proxmox LXC container (the container is running Ubuntu). I'm passing through the integrated GPU, as instructed in the Jellyfin docs. And then I enable Intel QSV transcoding on Jellyfin. The CPU consumption is close to negligible. Then again, you need an Intel CPU capable of x264 transcoding at decent rates. Anything after 8th gen should be able to do the trick (with this I mean, you can ALSO transcode whatever source to x265 on the fly, but that's not a feature I'm actively using at the moment, as the resulting file is usually larger anyway). I'm using an i5 9500T, and I benchmarked something like 8 transcodes simultaneously to almost no impact. I think it was starting to be noticeable past 12 transcodes simultaneously. But that's some heavy streaming there! That'd mean EVERYONE is connecting at once to your server using FF (I believe Chrome is x265 capable, and the apps also take x265 just fine if your phone/computer support it). So...in short, my i5 from a few generations ago is already overkill for x265

For a Jellyfin server however it's quite a boon.

Why are we posting news from September?

Is there a decent UI for borg, or is it all CLI?

...How? Yeah I have a Pi3 and a Pi4 lying around without much use at the moment. But how do I handle the inputs/outputs etc?

350USD? Yeah not that cheap either...
