Onyx is a Chinese company. Naturally, they don't recognize FLOSS or commercial licenses originating from European Union or USA. The catch here would be is to file grievances agains…

Glad I could help with a recommendation. I find it handles around 2TB of music very handily. The playlist handling is "weird", but simple. Basically, just take winamp or audacious,…

For some reason, my Jellyfin and Navidrome instances doesn't use Widevine (garbageware) in any way. Radarr, Lidarr, Sonarr, and the other Arrs work beautifully to control what medi…
