BRiT Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 I wish there was a docker for serving up Cat5 TV shows via unraid. A plugin for EMBY / Plex / Kodi would be ideal. I definitely found a new preferred site. Quote Link to comment
CHBMB Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Yep good job jonp, you're an amazing credit to the company and the community mate. Quote Link to comment

CHBMB Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 We should probably also say thank you to all the amazing docker authors, not least of all is Sparklyballs of course. Without those guys the infrastructure would still be there but not all the innovative, useful and wonderful dockers that have transformed Unraid and enabled Jon to go out there and show people what can be done. The unsung heros, if someone 6 months ago had told me that a strange man called Sparklyballs would have had such an effect on my life, well, I wouldn't have believed them! Quote Link to comment
garycase Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Agree ... it was an impressive presentation => certainly shows off the multiple capabilities of v6. Too bad the bandwidth was limited to Skype, as it would have been cool to show off the high-performance gaming you can do when you have a good video card (as you do). I hope the projected release date can be met (as I'm sure you know LT's history of meeting projected dates isn't particularly good). ... and the technical error r.e. the i7-4790k probably wasn't noticed by many viewers.

sparklyballs Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 they have rss feeds for their broadcasts, but i think that's after the fact though. Quote Link to comment
garycase Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 they have rss feeds for their broadcasts, but i think that's after the fact though. The bandwidth of the broadcast wasn't the problem ... Jon's connection to them was via Skype, so that limited what he could show. Quote Link to comment
sparklyballs Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 i meant more for getting it on other platforms, like kodi for instance. Quote Link to comment
garycase Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Ahh ... I thought you were referring to my comment about what Jon could show due to the bandwidth restrictions. Quote Link to comment
limetech Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 Jon did an amazing job! He was really in his element. Jon will chime in later, but the video feed and everything he was doing on the monitor was recorded (on the same server btw). I believe they will be taking that content and splicing it in to the final episode video they end up archiving and will be much better quality. Quote Link to comment

jonp Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 JonP => Interesting so far ... but just FYI, an i7-4790K is a FOUR core processor ... NOT EIGHT (which you just said several times) It's eight hyperthreaded cores. Quote Link to comment

NOT EIGHT (which you just said several times) It's eight hyperthreaded cores. No, it's FOUR hyperthreaded cores, which allows you to run eight threads. An i7-5960X has 8 hyperthreaded cores (and can thus run 16 threads). Or you can always move to a Xeon E5-4669V3, which has 18 hyperthreaded cores [thus 36 threads ] Hyperthreading (as I'm sure you know) does NOT add a core to the processor ... it just adds an additional set of registers with hardware state switching to facilitate faster switching between threads.

BRiT Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 they have rss feeds for their broadcasts, but i think that's after the fact though. Yes they do, I added this RSS Feed into the "Podcast" plugin for EMBY and it's showing the previous shows (for now): http://rss.cat5.tv/hd.rss More options available, including AUDIO only at: http://www.category5.tv/rss.php They also have a YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/category5tv Quote Link to comment

Thanks Tom and to everyone for all the support and Robbie too for doing a terrific job asking some great questions. You guys have no idea how stressful this was. Prior to recording, we were having some issues on Skype / Internet connectivity between Cat5 and us. We were troubleshooting until about the 2 minute mark when everything just decided to be fine. But adding to that was the fact that my connection was coming from a localized virtual desktop running on unRAID 6, which was also, in real-time, capturing my screen footage using NVIDIA ShadowPlay and saving it to my array over a user share mapped as a network drive in Windows (phew! talk about a mouthful!) So when it comes to eating our own dog food: Yeah, got that one covered ;-). Anyhow, hope you guys are as excited as we are about bring unRAID 6.0 final to you on Monday!! Quote Link to comment
