Cool. I guess I was wondering if the package maintainer had set a configuration to pull those in automatically, or if Clementine was designed to do that. But in any case, thanks for the reply.
kde, linux, busses, open source and the good old Grateful Dead.

I looked and I do not see anything like that. Who packaged your version I wonder.
That is interesting. Now I am going to have to run Wireshark and see if anything is going on with mine.
Shame if so, it is the most feature rich music player.
Man Amarok was amazing back in the day, but that was many days ago.
It still might be good, and kudos for the effort, but Clementine has already surpassed Amarok. It would be nice to the effort going to either Continue clementine development, or make Strawberry as feature complete as Clementine and go on from there.
Pyrosis did a great job answering a lot of your questions, I will focus again on why I cannot recommend plex:
Opt-In is not acceptable. You need to opt-out of: data sharing, data sharing with partners (unless you are in the UK or specific States), sharing playback data, stopping discovery together and activity feed, and turning off all of their live tv and streaming services.
Sharing streaming habits with others is not something that ever should have been opt-out. They keep pushing the line.
By the way, several of the “features” you mention are not included by default. Hardware decoding, downloads, DVR, etc.
I run both concurrently. I have a plex pass from way back when, maybe a decade or more.
What plex is now is not what it once was. Trying to socialize viewing habits, opting in by default to analysis, ads, reviews, and sharing that info has gone too far. Plex also works on these features such as discovery which benefits them, instead of open bugs.
That us why I can’t recommend it.
As for a feature comparison. Jellyfin is snappier, and faster. Plex is more detailed in their interface, and has better Metadata. Jellyfin sometimes doesn’t restart where I left off. Jellyfin is much, much better on mobile devices, but has less clients for tv’s. Jellyfin doesn’t rely on any server but my own, where plex wants to authenticate with thier own servers and ask for accounts (and money) to have full functionality. Jellyfin always downloads to a client. Plex…might. Plex has better handling of multiple streams in one file.
Because they are doing things in their best interest and not the end user.
As so many like to say here the enshitification is happening.
If you want to self host, plex isn’t it.
All the schools I have seen are using Google docs and sheets.
According to the current class action lawsuit, the privacy settings for the app store do nothing. So consent doesn’t matter. Building a digital fingerprint after explicitly saying they don’t might be called spying.

I have a roku, and I gotta ask… what ads? I think they run one on the side at the menu screen but I never even notice it. Because the only time i am on that screen is to get to a channelm
Then when something isn’t playing it just goes to the aquarium screen saver.
What are you doing that had so many ads?
If you want to talk about how chatty the damn things are with their servers, yes that is an issue.
Uh, my server is an x86, is fanless and the cpu idles at 9 and maxes at 12. Is much faster then my pi and has quicksync.
I run plex, jellyfin, smb shares, mealie, tailscale and rerouting, notes, and books.
I like my pi but performance per watt isn’t as drastic with x86 if you build for it. Did I mention it’s also fanless? Passive heating that just works on the cpu.
I could, but you would think their own driver would work!
Not a pain on Linux at all. Printing is a breeze. As is scanning. Go figure.
My scanner/printer works flawlessly ij Linux. It’s fantastic. I cannot get it to work in windows, but no big deal I rarely use windows anyways.
But it is amusing that it simply will not work in windows.
And this printer is from 2023.
Funny. I had a laptop that would do full speed and full security. But not in windows. They crippled the card with the driver, unless you paid more.
Ubuntu has caused me far more headaches and downtime than Arch. Go figure.
And to make this be a worthwhile comment: I wonder if it is because I use Arch (and derivatives) that Ubuntu causes issues. When something isn’t right, I try and fix it. In Arch I can. In Ubuntu it seems like a dozen paper cuts to get there and it may not work in the long run anyway. Oh the Snap doesnt have foo compiled in? No problem I can add it to the snap directory. No, that didnt work. Ok I will remove it and bring in a .deb file. Dependencies not met. Fine, I will compile it from source… and by that time I have wasted a TON of time.
I prefer black backgrounds in general. Do these have counterparts for dark theming?
The only wallpaper I really liked after all these years is Haenau. Is it going to be dropped in 6? I really like simply themes, but the subtle constant change is a nice to have. It works with light AND dark themes.
What is using the ram? The arrs? My media server uses hardly any ram with plex, jellyfin, and a lot more…
There was a good version of windows 7 set up for this. Command prompts wouldn’t work right, and really messed with them if you gave then access.
I let one in once and managed to reverse the remote desktop and took over their computer.
That was fun.
You misspelled Ubuntu.
