  • Regarding SFTP. You can have the server on the PC or the phone. It's up to you which fit's better your needs. Having the server on the PC is more common. Then you can use any file manager to get the needed files from your server/PC. You can also use USB, Samba or other services, but at least here SFTP is the fastest variant.

  • Media Monkey uses SQLite as database. I have used Media monkey to, before I switched to Linux. So I extracted the last played timestamp and play count with a simple SQL select and migrated this info to strawberry, which uses also SQLite. But be aware that both stores the date in an incompatible way. It's not that easy to spot in Media monkey database.

    You can also use a Windows program like Media Monkey or Musicbee on Linux through Wine. So you don't have to migrate your database. Syncing will work for both with Media Monkey and Musicbee.

  • My music workflow is the following: I'm using dynamic playlists based on last played timestamp. If a song was played, it gets a new timestamp and is removed from the playlist. Now a new song comes automatically in to the playlist where the timestamp doesn't exist or is older as x-days. That's easy to setup on strawberry and other applications. This playlist will be synced via whatever you want to your phone. In my case a SFTP service to keep it wireless. On the phone I use the same playlist with every player you want. Additional I'm using lastfm to scrobble the played music. This keeps the last played timestamp on the phone and can be synced with strawberry. I don't know if other applicants can do the same.

    Sounds complicated at first but after initial setup it's a automatic process.

  • Can this client automatically update the installed apps? What advantages does the client have in detail compared to the standard F-Droid client?

  • Since a lot of API's are missing on Android and others have unresolved bugs since age's, it's no wonder that Extension developers are total unmotivated to bring more effort to migrate their extensions to the Android platform.

  • I have installed only some small extensions, but all of them are working after the update. But I have not much of them installed.

  • What's new in Gnome 45?

  • Got it fixed. It was a broken mod.

  • Please don't laugh, this probably doesn't really fall into that category, but I wanted to keep it simple: Ark - Survival Evolved, Counter Strike but also games like Space Engineers. Ark causes relatively few problems. Space Engineers, on the other hand, does. Unlike Ark, it currently runs with very few FPS and often crashes or doesn't start at all. In general, I play more when I have time in the evening for 1 or 2 hours, comfortably on the sofa. So the laptop is more suitable.

  • Feel free to try it by yourself. Nothing easier than that. Reboot your phone and try to find it via Find My Device or ring it, without to enter your password before. It will not work.

    BTW: it doesn't make sense to exclude security and privacy related things from encryption. Otherwise there would be an unusually high risk to compromise this sort of data.

  • Find My Device is completely useless until the device is unlocked. As long as it is rebooted and not unlocked, there is no way to detect its location. Since most phones (if not all), use an encrypted filesystem. With such, no service can't start if the device isn't initially unlocked after reboot, including Find my device.

    This isn't only a issue with Google's implementation, it's the same with other implementations to.

  • I wonder the same, some time ago but for different reasons. If I have to buy a gaming laptop, what should I choose? Intel CPU and Nvidia was my best friend on Windows, but on Linux I'm totally unsure. I think AMD does a better job for gaming under Linux, but I have absolutely no idea if that's true.

  • Is there some variable to use as placeholder for the current logged in user, or do I have to use one gid/uid for all users on the laptop?

  • Ohhh nice. I will try that one. Have used only a simple battle mixer and the good old sl-1200 mk2 for several years. Maybe it's time to try some digital mixer. Nice that there is something for Linux... Thx for the link.

  • Since the script I'm talking about, makes some changes to the synced files, this is not a job for Resilio Sync. For the sync job itself, I'm using SFTP, because this is the easiest to setup on all clients/platforms. I'm only interested how I could safely dedect, if the sync is finished and start the script to do it's job's. The tip with the changing file is nice. I'm using that for now. Absolute reliable so far, for this task.

  • The depth is changing constantly, because new subdirs are created and removed during the day and/or upload/sync process. Thats why the script is walking across the complete directory structure every time. But the dummy file is a nice suggestion. In this case, I can monitor only the dummy file and trigger the script on dummy file change. Good idea.

  • It will use your current profile with settings automatically

  • Alles gut :-) Das Problem ist gelöst. Die Dachdecker haben das LAN Kabel beschädigt. Werd mal ein Neues am Montag ordern. Ich hasse es nur, das Kabel zu verlegen. Das liegt teilweise unter dem Laminat im Flur, was ich mühsam verlegt habe. Was solls, da muss ich wohl durch.

  • Its the cable. After changing the cable between the Switch and the Router, i got iperf test up to: 0.0000-10.0416 sec 1.09 GBytes 932 Mbits/sec.

    We had some workmen in the house a few weeks ago. Apparently, they damaged the cable. The test cable was unfortunately too short for permanent use, but it was enough for testing. I now get an upload of 65MB/sec on an average. This is about the same as the limit I had already determined through hdparm on the RPi4. I don't know, why hdparm is faster directly on the laptop, maybe the USB Controller is not the best on the RPi4. But anything is better than 11MB/sec.

    The situation is different when the laptop is only connected to the network via WiFi. Here I get a maximum of 28MB/sec. I have not yet found a solution how this could be faster.
