A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

Admin page. My parents watching this movie. Wondering why some of the watching progress line is blue and some of it is orange/reddish?

Please don't post anything linking to lemmyml

[–] ReedReads@lemmy.zip 7 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Thanks for this. I’ll post there next time!

[–] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 11 points 1 day ago

Forget it. Instead post on the forum.

Anyway:
Blue: Current playing progress
Red: Transcoded progress (how many more time units are already transcoded so you can skip forward without buffering)
Gray: Yet to be played/processed.

Do note that a lot of people/instances have lemmy.ml blocked, so you may get less responses if you post there.

What's wrong with lemmy.ml?

This probably isn’t the place to discuss it too much, but it’s a whole bunch of political nonsense they partake in

Looks like it's mostly being covered by left-wing and neutral sources.

It's always funny to me that blue means left to americans.

They don't realize the colors are arbitrary. Many don't realize the internet spans the world.

Socialism and democracy are good words in some countries. Socialism is how my sister in law gets to retire at 55 and in excellent health, and democracy is how they got that.

It was never set in stone until the 2000 election.

And red is right... maybe Weidel and Musk were correct, Hitler was actually a communist/socialist?

My guess: Transcode process

[–] Chewy7324@discuss.tchncs.de 61 points 2 days ago (1 children)

This. The blue line is the watched progress and the orange line is the transcoding progress.

[–] magguzu@midwest.social 10 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

The video is either being transcoded or direct streaming (audio only being transcoded). The red line is how far ahead that process is.

[–] ThePowerOfGeek@lemmy.world 29 points 2 days ago

Maybe it's watched vs buffered?

[–] schimonski@social.tchncs.de 26 points 2 days ago

@ReedReads Blue is watched, red is how far live transcoding is

[–] jakobmn@feddit.dk 1 points 1 day ago

Don't know about the admin page, however, the client on my tv does that if I watch half of it and continue watching at a later time.

If it's not connecting to the seeker it could be meta data highlighting opening/endings of episodes
