  • Are the tracks incorrect as in the first track should be English but is the French track, or track one is labelled as English but is actually French?

    If they’re labelled correctly, your media player should be able to select your chosen language from the options, whichever order they’re in. I think Plex does it.

    If they’re incorrectly labelled, there are tools that can fix them, but it’s been years since I last used one. I think MakeMKV did it, but it was gui from what I remember.



  • If you don’t mind me asking, what do you mean when you say you have your Plex server as a register of changes?

    I’ve got my PC as a read only source for my music, with everything else copying from that and syncing with each other. That lets me put new music onto my PC, organise it, and send the changes to my network. Is there a better way to do it, or something I’ve missed?












  • The other one was very very underpowered so I threw CasaOS onto it

    How did you get past the website? It’s bloody awful :o

    Joking aside though, I hadn’t heard of CasaOS, so I just did a quick search. That website is awful on mobile. I swiped up, assuming that there was more than just the live demo link, but nothing happened for a while. Then, loads of content popped up at once and scrolled past >.<

    I’ve sent it to myself to check out on the computer. Hopefully, if it does what it claims, it could resurrect an old laptop :)


  • Have you tried dual booting, and trying to switch?

    I set up a dual boot with Windows 10 and Mint on my PC. I found that I was sticking with Windows because it was what I knew, but then an update broke the Windows boot files.

    The usual repairs didn’t work, so I started using Mint full time while I was looking for solutions that didn’t just want me to reinstall. I realised after the first few days that I wasn’t missing much from Windows, and it was just the Windows only software like Photoshop that was holding me back. I’m looking into switching the last few things over now so that I can go to Mint full time 👍





  • I’m still trying them out, but if they work as advertised, then AppImages. That’s mostly because I use my desktop and laptop pretty much equally, so being able to copy and AppImage from one to the other and keep going would be really handy.

    On a similar note, if a computer dies, being able to just copy and paste them to a new computer, or run them from a portable drive would be great.
