Someone should explain me why transcoding is even needed (other than in case bandwidth is an issue)? My ”media server” at the moment is a custom ffmpeg script to edit all x264 mp4 files it finds by moving the moov atom to the beginning of the file (and what ever the similar thing for x265 was), and then lighttpd to serve them via dir listing. No file has yet had playback issues even over the internet…
Not at hand no, but I’m sure any of the LLMs can guide you through the setup if googling does not give anything good.
Nothing very special about all this, well maybe the subdir does require some extra spells to reverse proxy config.
Use a reverse proxy (caddy or nginx proxy manager) with a subdomain, like myservice.mydomain.com (maybe even configure a subdir too, so …domain.com/guessthis/). Don’t put anything on the main domain / root dir / the IP address.
If you’re still unsure setup Knockd to whitelist only IP addresses that touch certain one or two random ports first.
So security through obscurity :) But good luck for the bots to figure all that out.
VPN is of course the actually secure option, I’d vote for Tailscale.
”Yet” ??
I had the OG Jolla as my daily driver circa iPhone 4 era, and it was great experience overall. Running Android apps and whatnot. Eventually the camera and display quality made me stop using it. Still boot it maybe once a year for the fun of it… I think the Sailfish OS did even receive updates till ~2021.
Saw the video… It mentions ”ripping” and even shows clips of some blockbuster movies. No wonder any copyright-sensitive automation gets triggered pretty fast. This will only get worse.
Not to mention the other great features of the shiny new context menu: Annoying little lag when opening, and changing of the content about 1.5 secs after it has opened — right when you have started to click some item so you end up doing some random unintended thing. Chef’s kiss
