The box on which the dns server runs will need a static internal IP address.

Here you go :) Link

It doesn’t call home to makemkv so OP is played by this again, he/she won’t have this issue.

I can reach it?

Check out LibreDrive. https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=19022

Both devices made ping attempts. Not hard to confirm with firewall logs bc of timestamps and internal IP addresses.

Physical disc in a cd/dvd/bluray drive

A 1080p player does not require internet connectivity but 4K/UHD discs need to phone home in order to get decryption keys on a per disc basis. There is a lot of discussion about this in the MakeMKV forums if you want to do a deeper dive.

It does but I use makemkv for the Blu-ray decryption

MakeMKV handles my Blu-ray decryption for VLC

It tried to. I use an opnsense firewall which caught it. I copied my logs and submitted the domains to a popular dns blocklist and they’ve already been merged.

I’m all good. I really wasn’t asking for tech support. Just sharing something with the community. Don’t worry, Sony didn’t get my data.

Thanks for the helpful thoughts though.

VLC on a Linux laptop. You think my Blu-ray player has the ability to take screenshots?

It’s not a secret. They’re all on the Awesome Piracy Github page. The abbreviations are in parentheses next to the actual name.

Edit: for some reason you aren’t brought to the linked part of the page. Press enter again after the page is loaded and it should take you to the “Private Trackers” section.

You can go for the interviews at MAM, OPS or RED. They can give out invites for free. I don’t know of any other free way. If you’re willing to shell out some $$ you can buy a seed box through TorrentLeech.

Please don’t turn this community into a meme dumping ground. You can go to r/piracy for that.

What distro are you using? JF recommends Ubuntu.

FWIW, I found TechHut’s Jellyfin YouTube tutorials super easy to follow when I was just starting out. He also has a video on FStab which you might eventually find handy. I haven’t watched this stuff in long time though so it might be outdated. https://www.youtube.com/c/TechHutHD

i literally have to spell everything out

Yes. You do. That’s just the way it goes.

It doesn’t matter if you’re doing OSS or looking for venture capital, you need to sell your project/product to users. In an OSS project, prospective users need to understand why they should invest their time. You always need an elevator pitch or one liner. In github, the elevator pitch is the “About” section on the right hand side of the page (on desktop).

If you want to see what a good sales job looks like for Open Source, check out hoarder. It’s one of the best I’ve seen and certainly one of the main reasons it has received over 13 thousand stars in about one year.

Most of us started with the TRaSH Guides.

Also it’s not Linux or Windows; it’s Docker (which works on both Linux and Windows).

Also check out YouTube. There are a lot of great tutorials on there.

Here you go.
