And GIF is pronounced GIF

ha?!

Hey Canada, just so you know: I’m an European, and I watch “Son of a Critch” and “Shoresy”

Some people just don’t want to store anything on their devices for whatever reason.

Odin doesn’t play local content, instead it gets the streamable media directly from a debrid service like RealDebrid

RealDebrid and AllDebrid

It doesn’t. It’s nothing like any of these two. They provide local media content, Odin on the other hand streams media directly provided by the debrid service.

So, no downloading and hoarding involved.

Sure, there is that risk as well…but since it runs in a docker container, it’s easier to pipe all these requests through a VPN tunnel. And yes, one could pipe all their network devices (or just the android box) through VPN.

But then again, the installed app, might also collect data from within the network, etc.

no local media collection.

Exactly. It gets the streaming links instantly from the debrid service.

It doesn’t download anything and also does not fetch any local media. It uses jackett to scrape sites like 1337x.to for magnets, sends these magnets to realdebrid/alldebrid and gets a streamable link back which you can watch instantly.

By arr-suite… I meant the automated setups that people do, to get stuff downloaded directly into the movies/shows folders, hoarding huge MKV files, etc… Sorry for the confusing wording.

I don’t use the arr-suite myself, but I think you’re on point. Since It doesn’t download anything, and gets the streams directly from RD or AD, there’s no need for overseer.

You .ight be careful though, because RD doesn’t allow using their service from multiple locations at the same time (whatever thsat means)

Yeah… I mean, my stuff doesn’t do anything illegal, at least I hope so.

Ther was some drama indeed, but nothing to worry about, especially if you use a VPN, throw-away emails and bitcoins.

in a nutshell, the French government wasn’t happy about them providing instant links to video files. they then removed a feature from their api, and all seems good again.

Jellyfin uses the *arr suite, but Odin relies on a debrid service. The benefit is that nothing is hoarded on the device itself.

Me too… I bought one Apex pack solely because the introduced Linux support a month after I switched to Linux.

Microsoft: De nada, amigo! Oh… here’s an ad, btw… and…did you enable Recall already?

are they even actively developing it? repo seems abandoned

I would suggest not to rely on that. Give the DHCP a range, use manual IPs outside of that range

I’d recommend the following, which is what I did

• Get one of these N100 or N305 firewall mini PCs with two NICs for your opnsense box. they’re like 15x15 cm in size
• A managed switch (at least 8-port)
• A cheapo small PC case, that can house enough drives, or can add some 3dprinted drive tray or whatever for your NAS.

I’d highly suggest, not to put everything in one box. Been there, nothing but struggles.
