Yeah it’s essentially a trigger. I have a few purposes. One is for my dumb washing machine plugged into an energy monitoring smart plug. After it registers the washing is done, I’ll get alerts through the house in intervals until I get up and scan the NFC tag on the washing machine (I forget to hang out washing.

As I’m in a rental and I can’t have smart switches so I have smart globes and put tags on the switches to toggle the lights.

One by my bedside table to turn off all the lights and smart plugs.

One on my front door to set my away from home scene.

I also have a signed band poster hung on the wall with one, which opens the album in Spotify.

Good fun.

NFC tags are cheap and fun

I’m having success with TubeSync through docker compose.

Yeah I get that technically he did get what he ordered and you can’t argue with it. Still, it’s dodgy.

In general these are shipped with an NVMe and then the expansion slot is for a 2.5 inch sata sdd. So this has been modified at some point and the seller probably should have stated.

Oh now I’m worried about my order. Got an optiplex 7060 MFF on the way and ordered a sata 2.5inch SSD for expansion. Please be an NVMe!

Two birds one stone

For Lidarr I use Lidarr on Steroids (there is also Lidarr extended and a plug in script but I couldn’t get those going). Probably on me because I can’t get nginx going either.

I connected Deemix to it (you need a Deezer account) you can get MP3 for free, and with premium Deezer you can get lossless. All the music you want there.

There is also Soulseek for rare stuff but it’s manual and I cant find a way to connect it to Lidarr.

Yeah I tried to get that working but couldn’t get it going for some reason.

Yeah both my mobile and internet are with Optus haha

I have Lidarr on Steroids to automate downloads. It uses Deemix to download automatically. Deemix will download in MP3 with a free Deezer subscription, but if you want FLAC you need the premium suscription, or the month trial.

In Lidarr you can import a spotify playlist and it will add all the artists for you, which then downloads through Deemix. You can even download the entire discography if you like. Plus extras like album art.

For streaming I use Airsonic from my PC, then the Substreamer app on my android for the front end. You can create playlists in here and can also download songs on your device for offline play.

When I’m done downloading the majority of my playlists Artists and want to get rid of the Deezer subscription, I’ll probably switch to Usenet and Soulseek to download.

It payed off today, we had a mobile/internet outage for most of the day and I was still able to stream music.

Nice work. Glad you got something working for ya!

I second this but I use Lidarr on Steroids, as that’s the one I could get working. I also chose to subscribe to Deezer for a month or two so I can download everything in lossless/FLAC using my own arl. Then I’ll cancel it. After that I’ll probably go to soulseek and manually download.

In addition to the above suggestions for the arr stacks. There is also Bazarr for subtitles, Jellyseer for a neat requests/discover UI. Trash’s guides and servarr tutorials helped me a lot. I run it all through docker compose.
