I have a 10yr old Insignia 1080p TV. One of the 3 HDMI inputs is a Roku stick and I have Home Assistant watch for it and load the Jellyfin app whenever the TV gets turned on. Works most of the time and it's nice to avoid the Roku ads.


Tried a couple of different options, always gives me "failed to create video for segment 1"


Yeah. Relying on images of food to track calories is like ... dancing about architecture.


Yes, all bodies process food differently, and all measurement tools are inaccurate. One of the bigger benefits of tracking is the ability to see trends. If you're chronically low or high on a nutrient, a good tool will make this apparent to the user.


I've felt the same way for years. I used one of the big names for a month about 10 years ago, and it was a great way to learn about my habits and diet, and to experiment with IF (intermittent fasting). I tried it again, now that I'm a serial entrepreneur and single parent... and I just did NOT have the patience for the data entry. I feel same as this article that photos are not a solution. Vodka and water look the same to a camera.

Since April I've been using a tool I developed for myself. It's very much a MVP with an emphasis on M, but it's cheap to run, so I'll share the url if anyone wants to try it out and share feedback.
