I’ve just added images and more descriptions about each page of the web application in the GitHub readme. It should provide a nice overview now!

ToothPick is a web application that lets you easily subscribe to media playlist web pages, it’ll use yt-dlp to fetch the media and download them in a directory and file format that is perfect for Jellyfin.

If you create a Jellyfin library that points to the ToothPick library and make sure you turn on file watching, you immediately get the content in Jellyfin without any intervention!

I’m a professional and hobbyist C# .NET dev and I recently made the switch to a full Linux environment at home. I’ve gotten a great workflow setup with just VSCode and some extensions. I’ve actually found some ways to improve my workflow with VSCode vs Visual Studio and I’m glad I made the switch. The only thing I really miss is the phenomenal diagnostics and profiling I would get with a full Visual Studio install, but I’m getting used to using cli dotnet tools to replace that as well.

If you’re going the VSCode route, feel free to ask me more questions on useful extensions or workflow tweaks!

I made a service for this a while back:

https://github.com/MattMckenzy/Homehook

However, development of it has stopped in favor of v2, where I drop Chromecast support and instead focused on making a companion player service running on an htpc or rPi.

Let me know if you have any questions, I can try to help!

I managed to get the game’s textures working well through Lutris with this script I found!

https://gist.github.com/baryluk/1041204eff4cc4fad6f1508afe67b562

It’ll compile and install latest mesa, just make sure you add the wrapper script to the command in the lutris config for the launcher and it should work great.

Managed to make it work first try with this script on my KDE plasma/debian testing setup after wrestling with the textures issue for several days.

I have a bit of a prototype software package and service to serve jellyfin content on satellite devices, if you want to have a look: https://github.com/MattMckenzy/Homehook/tree/v2

It’s actually mostly complete and fully functional, just in need of some serious documentation and installation instructions hahah.

If you’re interested in trying it out, feel free to send me a PM and I’d be happy to help!

If you ever decide to move away from Chromecast to something a bit more DIY, I’m almost done making a decent casting replacement! Currently working on default and changing subtitles.

Send me a message if you ever find yourself interested in setting it up!

I feel like I can’t be the only immature one here…

My NAS is called AY-NAS.

I’ve got a bunch of Rpis named things like DANK-SBC, WONK-SBC and RAW-SBC.

I made a simple budgeting web app: https://github.com/MattMckenzy/Casheesh

My wife and have used it almost every day for the past couple of years to give ourselves and track fun budget money. It’s been working really well!
