BasicTraveler

A truly open world, with no boundaries at a scale never attempted before. A massively varied and dense planet filled with immersive biomes, unique enemies and valuable resources to discover.

uhhhhhhhhhhhh about that

No dedicated servers yet.

EDIT: dedicated server files have now been released.

EDIT2: They changed the terms of self hosting. It’s crap. I’m getting a refund.

I have a similar setup except I’m using Jellyfin instead of Plex.

For hardware, it’s a Ryzen 5900X, 128 GB of memory, 1 cheap SSD for the OS, 2 1TB NVME drives for fast storage, 2 2TB SSDs for normal storage, and 4 20 TB drives for bulk storage. 1 cheap GeForce GT 710 for video, and 1 Nvidia T1000 for transcoding.

For OS, I’m using Proxmox. I have a few VMs, but mostly everything lives in LXC containers.

For the NAS part, I have the hard drives mounted as a raidz2 on the Proxmox host, and I pass access through using LXC Bind Mounts. The pair of SSDs are in a mirror, and same with the pair of NVME. Game servers live on the NVME, and everything else on the SSD.

Game servers that run on linux run in LXC, otherwise I have a windows VM. I’ve never liked running game servers in Docker.

I also have Proxmox Backup Server running on the Proxmox host itself.

Make sure your closet has adequate ventilation.

It really depends on what you use. There are tools that will extract the different data streams inside the containers and you could add them to a different (compatible) container… However if you use some sort of converter tool, it may just read the data stream, decompress it and decompress it again which would under the best circumstances lose quality to it’s size.

There are 2 separate concepts I think you may be trying to merge into 1.

There are File Formats (also called Container format), like Audio Video Interleave, which is commonly identified with the .avi file extension, and Matroska Multimedia Container, which is commonly identified with the .mkv file extension. They define the structure and organization of data within a file. Ex the audio data starts at offset X, the video data starts at offset Y, en_us subtitles start at offset… etc.

Then there are Encoding Formats, like AV1, h.264, HEVC. These are algorithms that can be used to compress video for storage within a file and decompress the data within a file for display.

So I’m trying to get some info about an upcoming medical procedure. I wanted to make sure I get a balanced view so I asked 2 doctors, 2 people who once took a first aid class once at summer camp, and 2 who believe vaccines cause autism.

I’ve had success with trivial things, like write a log file parser with this pattern, or give me a basic 3 part left-right-center header in html. Works ok for trivial side projects. I would never trust it in production. Its a tool, nothing more at this point. Like an electric drill, better than a hand crank, but you still need to know how to use it.

You can reach out to the EFF. They took an interest in youtube-dl. However you have a major hurdle to overcome:

RIAA argues that since youtube-dl could be used to download music owned by RIAA-member labels, no one should be able to use the tool, even for completely lawful purposes.

This is an egregious abuse of the notice-and-takedown system, which is intended to resolve disputes over allegedly infringing material online. Again, youtube-dl doesn’t use RIAA-member labels’ music in any way. The makers of youtube-dl simply shared information with the public about how to perform a certain task—one with many completely lawful applications.

IANAL but probably shouldn’t have video on the site showing it downloading copyrighted music. I think that’s the crux here.

Good luck, but I think you kinda shot yourself in the foot.
