Use emby instead. The server is GPL.
also I just like it better overall

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emby
Nice try

Not to mention it's written in C#. That's like gluten-free wheat. I honestly don't understand why people bitch about streaming. I literally just use ssh, and it works fine.

Know of anything better? I have an autistic amount of media that I want organized and ssh/nfs doesn't really cut it.

OP, are you a massive faggot or a massive faggot?????????????????????

Was already named.

If you're a lazy faggot who doesn't just stash everything in folders on a NAS and uses electrical jews, you can use Kodi(formerly XBMC)

kodi.tv/

The main problem with kodi is that things like metadata and watched status is confined to the local device instead of the server, so I can't start a series on my TV then go to the desktop and have it keep where I left off. Also emby can transcode files in real time which is nice for streaming outside my LAN.
these things with kodi add-ons, but from what I've seen nothing exists

They are violating the GPL if you need the build scripts to build the program.

(checked)
This is a meta problems arising from using an electrical jew in the first list.
**I keep watch lists in a spreadsheet and watch everything with VLC.
Confining watched states to a format/program is a shit idea because every program keeps own metadata records.
If you're a normie who owns a phone just write them down there. It's not that hard.**

They don't claim to use GPL in the first place.
Only SOME of the source code files are GPL.
I'm not an expert on this. Is that disallowed?

Apparently no one knows.

There's a few more issues and forum posts to the devs about this. There's a small group of autists actively trying to keep the project from going proprietary and it seems to be getting response from the devs. too bad they're also flooded with idiots asking retarded questions

Here's a javashit UPNP server, there's probably better ways though

This.

I hate proprietary fags who write simple C# bullshit and act as if it's software that's SO important they can violate the initial license.

Torrent. Stop using centralized services for streaming. It weakens the purpose of the Internet and concentrates the power in the hands of a few.

If you mean something normie friendly, popcorn time is what they're looking for. If you don't mind having the files on you own computer (in case internet goes down) just use a bittorrent client + bittorrent site + mpv/vlc

If they include GPL'd files they must follow the terms of the GPL, and the project as a whole must be covered under the GPL although it's legal for all the other files to be under other GPL-compatible licenses.

Look at all this handwaiving:

PTP.

github.com/plexinc/plex-media-player/blob/master/LICENSE

The server itself is GPL the web not so much.

Private Tracker General?

The Pirate bay

OP here. Thank you for all the answers.

I tried Popcorn Time and it's really comfy. I will experiment with Kodi when I have a spare laptop. Thank you!

WebTorrent

Didn't popcorn time become malware though?

How can it be malware on Linux? Ubuntu here

What does this mean?

Linux is vulnerable to malware too, especially if you executed it through super user.

No (the official vetrsion)

Well the main thing is source-code compiling

You can use proprietary (closed source) software on Linux.
You can compile malware from source.

Yes. Go to the cinema like a normal human being.
Or pirate your shit, whatever.

God I wish that was me

This. Go to the cinema once in a while with your friends to support the industry and have a good time, user, that's what matters in life!, the rest of the time torrent everything.

Just know that the pic uploaded by is not new. It has been online since at least June CY+0: tineye.com/search/55bde1ce92ba0bde38d1d1d3419ffc571c66d797/?sort=crawl_date&order=asc

fucking jewgle gave me no results when I reverse search it

OP here. I found it after searching for "netflix and chill" and added smileys. Just get fit and any woman is yours >>>/fit/

bump

Stop being lazy and torrent.

bittorrent, you nigger

Dude, she wanted the D

Also, is dead on.

You think OP knows how that works?

...

This. Create your own version of Netflix with a NAS and stream your collection to a Pi.

reeks of reddit.

Getting your dick sucked with Netflix playing in the background

good luck in your op
i'm sure you'll trap many fags
People talk it up because their lives are so empty of meaning. The reality is it's even shittier than not doing it.

A Bittorrent client + a media player

Get a fucking library card and cheap blu ray player.

Linux is the name of the kernel that Linus Torvalds developed starting in 1991. The operating system in which Linux is used is basically GNU with Linux added. To call the whole system “Linux” is both unfair and confusing. Please call the complete system GNU/Linux, both to give the GNU Project credit and to distinguish the whole system from the kernel alone.

GNU is just a bunch of binutils. They do not compose an operating system itself. You can't boot up GNU. You can boot linux without GNU though. Linux is the operating system. End.

You can't operate your system with Linux though. All you get is "No init found. Try passing init=bootarg"

That wasn't their argument. They never said that you can boot linux without an init, they said that it would be possible to boot linux without gnu utils.

GNU is a LOT more than "a bunch of binutils".

and I said it would be pointless since Linux alone doesn't let you do anything of use.

They said without GNU utils, not without any utils.

You're trackable without a proxy who most likely records logs. Torrenting over TOR as well is unsafe. IPFS is also in beta and not good for privacy, yet.

better than letting the right wing government know you're a faggot who uses netflix
yes.
oh wait what you really mean is

When did Stallman start using Zig Forums

yeah, but nobody gives a shit if you're only torrenting stuff that's actually worth watching

The Alternative is find a friend that will share an account with you. Or be like me and don't pay for it.

It's not unsafe.
Just run Whonix Gateway & Workstation. Install torrent client on Whonix Workstation and download torrents.
UDP is not necessary for torrents. Most trackers are UDP but you can find a lot of HTTP trackers.
After you download files you can move them from virtual machine to your host machine if you want.
I downloaded a lot of child pornography and US government leaks using that setup.

Came to interject, stayed for the inane comments.

c-c-can you share the lists?
I'm currently on covenant, but the sources are pretty shit

Surprised no one's mentioned this

Download movies and play them with VLC honkey

i can tell by the logo
