Time to give something back to the community! 🙂

What's it about?
A TV Web Player as a Docker Image.

Features:

• 📺 Watch from anywhere: No client required. Just use your browser.
• 🔍 Search functionality: Find channels by name.
• 🌙 Dark mode support: Automatically switches between light and dark modes based on your system preferences.
• 🌍 If you dont have an TV provider, choose a playlist for your country.
• 📽️ Picture-in-Picture mode: Watch videos in a floating window.
• 📡 Similar channels: View and switch to similar channels based on normalized channel names.

(I know you guys- you might have got some shady playlists lying around 😄. Here, some normalization happens so you can quickly switch between options like "DNAZ 1 HD," "DNAZ 1 SD," or "DNAZ 1 RAW" in case a stream breaks.)

I'd be super happy if this resonates with someone and finds some use!
I'm not really a programmer, but I've already learned so much awesome stuff again.
Big thanks to ChatGPT too! :D

Hey everyone, so this is my contribute into the community that I'd like to share. Over the weekend, I got into my head that I wanted a desktop client that I could log into my virtual machines like how you would with VMware Horizion's client.

I knew about Proxmox VDI client by joshpatten and it inspired me to actually look into the Proxmox API and see if what I wanted to could be done. One thing I wanted to be able to do that his couldn't (that I could tell) was being able to still use the NoVNC console and xtermJS console, cause not all my VM's use a SPICE connection.

GitHub Page

While I know there are still many improvements to make, here it is:

Requirements for SPICE

• Virt-viewer && UsbDk (https://www.spice-space.org/download.html).
• Dot Net 4.8.1 or Newer
• WebView2 (Edge)

Functionality

• Plain & TOTP Login
• Remote (NoVNC/SPICE/xtermJS)
• Ability to provide alternate SPICE Proxy Information

Known Issues

• Spice doesn't always get enabled if the VM was the "last" to be loaded from the server.
• Full-screen/scale issues with NoVNC & xtermJS.

Future Road Map

• Refresh VM List / Session Refresh
• Status Icon (Online/Offline), Currently Menu disabled if offline.

Hi folks !

I've been running a homerserver for 2 years now entirely with docker compose.

As everything is working properly, Id like to learn something new, I heard about kubernetes (or microk8s or k3s I don't know what these are) and so I'm wondering, would it be interesting to start using these... Tools ?

Are there any starting points I should get to in order to learn these "orchestration solutions" ?

Any help appreciated!

Hello folks. Currently i deploy on a Synology Nas, but i probably want to use adedicated homelab server for my docker plays.

Can anyone recommend a „silent“ and fast option?

Best wishes Oddy

Ah and by the way… do you know any good Black Friday Deals??

Happy Friday, r/selfhosted! Linked below is the latest edition of This Week in Self-Hosted, a weekly newsletter recap of the latest activity in self-hosted software.

This week's content includes a new Fediverse TikTok alternative, notable software updates and a TON of new launches, and a spotlight on ScratchMap - a self-hosted travel tracking map.

I usually try to avoid cloud services like the pest but for some reason I started AppInTheAir many years ago and diligently tracked every single flight.

Just a few weeks back, I am adding my new flight and just got the message that the flight couldn't be found. Ok, I'll try later.

Now I am on another flight on all of the sudden it shows a message that they had shut down. What's worse, data export was only possible until mid of October. I think the announcement was like 2 months before. I never received any further notification. But even if, that's not enough time.

Now I have my data stuck in my phones' cache but can't export it because their stupid cloud service is down. For good.

Man, this is so frustrating. Another stark reminder to think twice ... thrice before submitting yourself to a cloud based service. Sadly it's getting harder and harder...

PS: I also want to highlight this absolutely stupid trend to move stuff into the cloud that absolutely doesn't have to be in there. Why the heck does a data export need to be in the cloud and sent via email??

Hey yall, I've just started a YT channel on selfhost/homelabs and thought it might be interesting, otherwise I'd love to hear the critique.

If you're more of a reading type of person, writeups are here

In threat modeling a homelab, I am finding that I constantly make a tradeoff between sending encrypted data to a 3rd party versus putting in a lot of extra effort to avoid it. Is it reasonable to try to avoid this from a privacy perspective? If so, what tips or tricks do you have when thinking about this?

Some specific intermediaries that come to mind:

• ISP - will always see the data
• TOR - any node that I hop through
• VCS - if I set up my own VPN on a VCS
• VPN Provider - Any service that provides this

Hi guys,

Just want to share my repo for installing nextcloud aio behind traefik the easiest ways.

The difference from the official guide is im not using host for network (i didnt like it) and also im using loadbalance failover to switch between setup mode (domaincheck) and running mode.

hope you all like it.

Hi everyone,

I recently heard about Real-Debrid adding more anti-piracy due to the new rules from the French FNEF, and I’m concerned about the future of similar debrid services. I used to rely on Real-Debrid and Torrentio with Stremio for streaming, but now I’m looking for alternatives that don’t depend on debrid services and might be less prone to the same fate.

Here’s what I’m looking for:

• Can be accessed from anywhere.
• Works on iOS, Android, Android TV, and PC.
• I have access to various devices, including a Windows PC, Mac, Linux machine, and Raspberry Pi, so I’m open to something I can set up on any of these. Have VPN (Nord VPN)

Does anyone have recommendations for a setup or service that fits these requirements? I’m happy to try out self-hosted options or other creative solutions. Thanks in advance for any help!

I've been using Immich for not too long and really liking it. Accessing it through VPN worked fine but the need for sharing albums and photos to family and friends quickly arose. I wanted a secure enough way (for me) to expose immich publicly without exposing the whole API and also without giving up on the immich feature-full web UI.

Proxy for Immich is a proxy that you can expose to the public so you can share albums/photos to friends, etc.

It allows a subset of the immich API to pass through (only read-only operations, only those necessary for displaying the album / photos sharing pages). It also contains a stripped-down version of immich's web UI so you get pretty much the same UI as you're used to (minus ability to upload, change description, etc, again read-only).

Features

• 📥 Download photos individually or whole albums
• 🚫 Upload disabled for enhanced security
• 🎞️ View slideshow of albums
• 🔒 Supports password-protected albums
• 🌐 Translated in many languages.
• 🌓 Light and dark theme

Not sure where I want to take that project but I know I'm already using it and so far it's working great.

There are also other similar projects with different approaches that have been submitted on reddit: https://github.com/11notes/docker-immich-share-proxy, https://github.com/alangrainger/immich-public-proxy.

Hope you enjoy, cheers.

So I have been using homebox and printing the qr codes to mark assets easily.
Apart from that I have a load of smart plugs, switches etc which I just label by their name and have a spreadsheet.
I thought it would be neat to be able to generate a load of redirect links in my own domain like http://inventory.internal/xxx for which I could then print a batch of qr stickers. As I use the stickers I'd like to be able to create actual redirects for links I use to the places that hold information on the asset. So have inventory.internal/xxx redirect to wbm for a switch or whatever Anyone knows of any service that would help me or am I down to manual work?

I’m currently using tailscale to access my jellyfin remotely, while also being able to share with all the other family members. After trying to set up with the other family members, some had problems connecting (apparently configuring tailscale client app on windows can get not right sometimes with the firewall stuff) which because they live far away (for example, one of my grandparents) and I can’t really help them remotely with all of the issues, leads me to searching for an alternative. My ISP is using CGNAT, so I can’t port-forward without requesting them to move me from CGNAT, and paying monthly price which I don’t wanna add to the already high price I pay for them. Is there any possible alternative for tailscale which will be easier for my other family members to connect to? I don’t plan on buying a VPS just to proxy between, which could also lead to slower speeds between the user and the jellyfin instance.

I do not have a lot of knowledge in self hosting. Its a miracle that I was able to get Immich running. I am just thinking about if its possible to self host Filen because it is open source. To people who know the topic this question may be easy to answer and sounds stupid but I really don't have the knowledge in this field and I did not find anything online about this topic so I think it is not the case
