i cant understand your problem.

Tubi.tv and Xumo are what Netflix was in 2010 and they are much better than Netflix today. Movies and shows I want to watch are there plus live tv.

TwanHE ,

Still remember having to patch widevine L1 on my Poco F1 just to get HD working on Netflix.

Weirdly my totally legally obtained DRMless video files never had this issue.

bigFab ,

The only reason I use Netflix is the PS3, because I don’t have a smart TV

Ad4mWayn3 ,

You don’t need a smart tv, keep your dumb one and consider buying a Roku, save yourself a few cents

farsinuce ,

Or a Nokia Streaming Box

AVincentInSpace ,

Or better yet, a Raspberry Pi running LibreELEC so that you don’t have to worry about where your software comes from or what it’s doing in the background

i am against paying for DRM streaming services, and i boycott apple products, but i must say this is an impressive hacking effort and a well-executed meme about it. 🥂

Neat. Chromebook image is useful for blobs when installing coreboot also.

The irony of this article being able to quote those comments for us, the humble readers, while the fucking movie studios can’t do the same in a court of law is just… so delicious.

I regret convincing my parents to subscribe to Netflix instead of using Torrent or Emule. Fuck these fucking companies that now cost more than bluerays and broadcast content with crappy quality if you don’t have a platform that knows how much you’re shitting yourself

Scrollone ,

You can always setup a nice Plex server and give them all the movies they want.

It’s not like you can’t unsubscribe from Netflix

CafecitoHippo ,

I find this to be an option with Movies/TV Shows but a struggle with Music. At least once my kids were older and listening to stuff. They were constantly asking for stuff to be downloaded, my mom and wife were asking for stuff, my brother, etc. Had a subsonic server set up and just got tired of actively managing it. Spotify isn’t great but it works and it saves a headache. I just wish there was better options because I don’t like the Spotify app. YouTube Music is even worse, especially since it subscribes to everything on YouTube too so all my subscriptions got jacked up.

Give them a search tool as a web app (for said music server and scraper setup) and allow them to ask it for the music. When they’re over their limit, have it return a temp unspec error. Dust your hands and walk away proud.

CafecitoHippo ,

I don’t have access to my music torrent site anymore due to the first one shutting down (W.CD) and then going idle on the other one for years. Don’t feel like re-downloading everything either since I lost all my music in a hard drive crash. Could probably recover it from my Cowon X7 but don’t know where the cable is for that anymore.

Just create a fake account with 10 minute mail or something similar. On my desktop i use the web-app with ad muting extension. Works rather well.

spfhaar ,

if you want DRM-free, bandcamp is the best way, but for “exploring” subscribing to spotify is the best way in terms of quantity, and it doesn’t pay much less than other DRMs even if it has a monopoly, and is not from the USA or China

Here you can compare other services if you are interested in how much money goes to the creators: streamingcalculator.com or www.musicgateway.com/royalties-calculator

otherwise if you don’t want to pay, youtube + soundcloud with adblock is the best solution. or if you really have a lot of time you can make your own self-hosted pod on funkwhale: docs.funkwhale.audio/administrator/index.html

I have to find the time to do it, I had seen jellyfin as a solution, but I also have to find something that acts as a server, my raspberry pi 3B+ is not powerful enough for 1080p+ streaming

bitwolf ,

If you parents have a standard TV stick or Apple TV their devices support a variety of codecs.

This means that you can “direct stream” content from Plex / Jellyfin with minimal CPU impact.

At 1080p it should at least support ~4 direct streams when it doesn’t have to “transcode”.

That said, even if it is weak by today’s standards it’s a good platform to learn the setup on. Then you can move to something else more powerful (but still cheap) once you understand it all.

At least that’s how I did it, 3b+ -> Pentium J5040

Scrollone ,

Personally I bought a used office PC (with 8 GB of RAM and Intel i5 6th generation) on eBay for less than 100 €. It works really great!

spfhaar ,

yes, but singleboard computers take up less space, make less noise and have almost non-existent energy consumption

rwhitisissle ,

Holy fuck, emule?! At this point, just use usenet.

spfhaar ,

It’s used by my father for some old porn and the colourful progressbars.

rwhitisissle ,

I still have nightmares from the porn I’ve found on emule decades ago. Apparently some people have fetishes that involve brutally killing animals…

skeeter_dave ,

I’m so glad that I subscribed to netflixs DVD rental service. I would get stuff in the mail, rip the disks with handbrake, and send back. Repeat. Torrents where a no go with a 5gb a month satellite ISP.

But still I would

Clbull ,

Image comes from the monstrous work the Asahi Linux team did to get Netflix working on Linux on ARM Macbooks: asahilinux.org/2024/01/fedora-asahi-new/

There’s your problem. Using Linux is like using a dishwasher instead of a rice cooker to cook rice.

syaochan ,

I fail to understand your reasoning, could you elaborate?

lemann ,

You don’t get 4K on Windows or Mac either unless you have a HDCP-compatible display, a supported graphics card, and typically the devices will refuse to initiate a handshake due to the locality check failing, or a difference in HDCP version - Unless you have a “smart” TV you’re watching in 1080p or lower.

Piracy point still stands: why pay for a service that does not guarantee to give you what you are specifically paying for, and actually goes out of their way to block your access?

Netflix may take away their subscription but they can’t take away my Transmission and VLC.

Mango ,

What are you smoking? Running a video file is trivial.
