Programs scheduled by app not being recorded

In the past I have been able to schedule recordings from the Android app. Sometimes on the local wifi, sometimes while away. Recently, even though the process completed as usual, nothing was recorded.

How about a way to reverse the On Deck order?

For example, say I have 7 shows on deck and I watch an episode on Monday. I don't want to watch the next episode of that series until I have watched an episode of each of the other 6 series that are on deck. When I open Plex, the first episode presented to me is the next episode in the series of the most recently watched episode. The one I want is the episode at the far right end of on deck because I have watched an episode of every on deck series since that one. Once an episode is watched, the next episode in that series is presented to the right to satisfy those who prefer to binge. However, that same episode is also shown directly below and is redundant. I'm suggesting an option to sort at least the bottom, if not both, on deck rows in reverse order to satisfy those who don't binge watch. My main device is a 2019 Nvidia Shield Pro. Some devices may present differently than what I describe but that has not been my experience. Previous post deleted due to lack of clarity.

Any way to reverse the On Deck order?

I don't binge and generally watch episodes in the order presented by Plex, meaning I scroll to the right end to pick the next episode. When I finish an episode, the next episode in the series, if available, is presented to the right. Presented directly below is the previously most recently viewed episode. I have to scroll all the way to the right end to watch the next episode that followed the episode I just watched. It just seems a little annoying but I can't find a setting to change it.

How do I share files from Linux to/from Windows?

I have two Windows 11 Pro PCs that can't be seen by my repurposed Windows laptop running Linux Mint. How would I go about correcting this? Do my Windows 11 PCs need to be in a workgroup to be seen by Linux?

Can I safely remove this and spray with contact cleaner?

My 1999 3.0L has an ongoing electrical issue somewhere related to VSS communication. I have been dealing with this for months and posting in various forums here and around the net. I'm trying to track down the cause of the signal interruption. I have replaced the VSS sensor on the diff. I would like to remove this for inspection and cleaning. The second pic is a screenshot of something I found that I thought could be worth looking into although all symptoms don't match. I want to keep this brief but have previously posted a lengthy description.

The best album to listen to from start to finish?

Full disclosure, while I have most, if not all of her albums, I don't consider myself a "Swiftie". All of my music is digital and I generally prefer to listen to genres, not artists, similar to radio. I don't think I have listened to any of her albums all the way through. So which one would you recommend?

Recommend a scanner that goes beyond the PCM for my 1999 Ranger

My 1999 Ranger 3.0L, 4R44E has a lingering VSS problem and my $20 ODB-II that pairs with my phone won't cut it. From the info I have been able to glean from here and there, apparently I need one capable of communicating with the PCM, transmission, ABS, and instrument cluster. I thought it was a short somewhere but I am learning there are several possible causes from the VSS on the differential, to a short, to a wheel speed sensor tone ring to name a few. Considering I'm a novice, and if I am able to solve the issue the device may never be used again I don't want to spend a lot. I'm thinking the $150 area. I've had this truck 25 years and this is the first problem I have been unable to solve. Thanks.

I need a plumber. How/where do you find your contractors?

My house, on a crawlspace, was built in the early 60's. This is the kitchen side of the tub/shower fixture I need replaced. The hot tap has been leaking for a bit. I'm generally a DIY guy so I disassembled it recently to discover it is a cartridge type which I had planned to replace. However I was unable to extract the cold side, and I slipped in the shower the other day and snapped off the hot side at the wall. I would also like the faucet to the outside replaced with a ball valve because it takes a full 12 freaking turns. I tried sweating sweating copper once and burned a hole in the pipe so I don't feel qualified but am unsure of where to find someone qualified. One other thing, there is a 3/4" mouse? hole in the bottom right of the photo. Is great stuff sufficient or should I use something else?

Multiple match for one track? I'm confused.

I've spent nearly an hour this morning searching for the answer but nothing I find seems to relate to this particular situation. The MetaBrainz community is massive and being unfamiliar I'm unsure where to start. How can there be multiple entries for the same track? One excellent match and one good. The right click pop-up seems rather vague. Naturally I want the best match but what do I do with the other? Thanks.

Built three PC's but are they good for anything?

I did some long overdue de-cluttering over the weekend and scrounged enough parts to build three PC's.

  1. is a Biostar K8M800 microATX AM2, AMD Athlon 64 LE-1640, ram maxed out at 2GB DDR2 in a Rosewill FBM-X2-400.

  2. is an Asus M4A785-M, AMD phenom II X4 965 u/3.4 Ghz, w/16GB DDR2 in a MasterBox Q300L.

  3. is a Gigabyte GA-78LMT-S2P, AMD FX-8300 Eight-Core Processor u/3.31 GHz, 16GB DDR3, w/AMD Radeon HD-6570 1GB DDR3. This one is in an Antec 200 case w/six internal 3.5" bays, one external 3.5" hot swap, three 5.25" external bays when converted adds three more 3.5" internal bays, plus one 2.5". I'm thinking of using this for a OpenMediaVault NAS for my Plex library once HDD prices come down.

The Biostar is questionable. Even Linux distros usually recommend 4GB of ram. The Asus could be good for something. Any suggestions for the first two? Android OS? DosBox?

Door to door roof sales guys stopped by

A couple of guys stopped by the house on Friday and made an appointment to return today, Tuesday, between 4-5PM for a roof inspection following the severe storm they claimed was coming but never materialized. A lot of rain but no storm. They claimed it wouldn't cost me anything, insurance would pay to replace the roof. What I found questionable is they said the three tab shingles I have are no longer used in Kentucky and they would be using architectural instead. IMHO architectural have a nicer look, but not the focus of this post. My roof is at least 25 years old and will need replacement soon and I worry every spring about the cost. I have questions and need advice.

  1. What about the reference to three tab shingles? Is that a thing or upselling BS?

  2. Should I just cancel the appointment when they call?

  3. It may be worth mentioning I am a senior and maybe viewed as an easy target. Also I have had the same carrier for more than 25 years and I don't remember ever having a claim.

Every time I watch a movie I get a request to review it. I don't mind community participation. The issue is that my media storage is so small (one 10 TB drive) that I must delete everything as soon as I watch it. By the time I receive the request to review, the movie has been deleted and the page longer exists.

I added a 4k rainy scene yesterday and when I turned on the TV last night the scene was running in slow motion and the system was stuck. I had to power cycle to recover. Thinking I should maybe stick with 1080P.
