  • For Plex:

    In YouTube download-material settings: Extra-> check “generate nfo files”

    In plex, create a library called “YouTube” or whatever you’d like, category set to “other videos”. Use scanner: “Plex Video Files Scanner” set agent to “Personal Media.”

    Under Plex settings “Agents” make sure under both the “movies” and “shows” tabs that the “personal media” agent is set to use “Local Media Assets” and that that is top priority.

    Plex will use the nfo files generated by ytdl for metadata.

    I believe there is a dedicated YouTube series agent, but those can be finicky. This way, ytdl has already done all the metadata work.




  • That’s certainly quotes around a lot of things I didn’t say. I admit I need to do a better job seeing past my own biases.

    I also admit OPs posting pattern is materially irrelevant to the contents of the Washing Post article on its own. I was just pointing out a larger pattern within the c/worldnews community as a whole. In that context someone with an agenda can have influence.

    But I’m not sure why I did. They seem like a nice person and post good faith articles. This was probably a misaimed shot on my part, true or not.











  • It’s kind of bizarre. The original article says (in a very repetitive and long-winded way) Europe needs to step up its military spending and send more of their own troops to the eastern borders to be able to counter Russian aggression on their own in the face of a potentially unreliable US who may be more focused on China. I honestly don’t think the US would disagree here. Strong allies aren’t a bad thing.

    Economically it argues (again, in very unnecessarily long wording) the US will make decisions regarding protecting itself from a rising China without concern for Europe.

    My opinion, this is probably true, although Europe might want to be concerned about China in its own right. Again, I’m not convinced the US wouldn’t want strong economic partners either. This only gets into disagreement territory if the EU intends to partner with China to counter the US. That will go about as well as it did partnering with Russia for their energy dependence.

    Bottom line the article makes just two arguments that I’m fairly sure the US would agree with, in an unnecessarily inflammatory way that does seem intended to drive a wedge between the US and EU. I’m not sure if they’re just being salty, just trying to use emotion to rile people up to get things done, or if their goal is the second argument, an economic wedge, in which case they’re arguing to tie themselves to another despot.
