Yeah, “not legal in the US due to DRM laws” makes zero fucking sense in this context

Yup, don’t need anything else.

Everyone should strive to learn about Alots. They’re an invasive species!

Because I hate big tech and I want control of my media.

Yup, it fucking blows. I can’t even find the speakers on the ones by me, I think they’re behind the screen.

Not every screen has buttons. The ones by me all don’t.

For some reason invidious never works for me, i just get errors and it doesn’t load, but FreeTube works great.

Yeah, I dont love that about TubeArchivist.

I think they’re running it on their PSP or something 😂

I think one could have reasonably assumed I meant to type rogue. Fat thumbs and all that.

That’s not a sentence. What are you asking?

I’ve played the OG Duke a little bit on modern PC, but otherwise I don’t have much experience with it.

I do! I play shooters from every era. Using the d-pad for movement isn’t too dissimilar from WASD movement IMO, and the joystick for aiming is standard. I thought it worked quite well.

On the contrary, I played GoldenEye for the first time last year and I was amazed at how well it controlled with that ridiculous controller!

Who is downloading and selfhosting a million+ YouTube videos tho? Wild.

How’s the playback/library organization for TubeSync? That’s my primary interest with TubeArchivist.

I took a look at pinchflat but it seemed more focussed on the archival side of things rather than the playback side. Would you say thats accurate? Because honestly all I’m looking for is a frontend to easily watch my videos. I only download an odd video here and there and for that purpose yt-dlp works perfectly fine.

Okay, your notes have definitely helped a bit. I compared your compose file against mine and removed the HOST_UID, HOST_GID, and the healthcheck sections from the default file. Its still taking an abnormal amount of time to boot up and login, but the container isn’t completely throttling my system anymore. I suspect the healthcheck was the culprit. A step in the right direction though, thank you!

You guys are giving me hope, I just have no idea where to begin. Lol.

Its been a minute since I’ve used Plex so I don’t remember the exact specifications, but I set up a separate library in Plex and directed it to my YouTube folder where I had everything pre-organized, and then I selected the option in Plex that was something like “show folders,” which organized the Plex library the way I had the directory organized. It wasn’t perfect because I had to set up everything manually, but all I wanted was to be able to watch my YouTube videos from anywhere in the house, and for that it was perfect.
