podsync VS barcodebuddy

this is not something you would host and share with everyone, as transcoding is not cheap to host, it only makes sense for personal use only, also stuff like podsync has existed for a long time, which is basically the same thing missing the transcoding.

Completely unrelated to Tailscale, another option is Cloudflare Tunnel. It will also traverse CGNAT and expose your Plex server to the public internet. The only limitation here is that you must have a subdomain. I have my own paid one, but I don't see why you couldn't use something like https://freedns.afraid.org/ to get a free subdomain. Cloudflare Tunnel is completely free, and it comes with free TLS too. I use it with podsync to watch YouTube using my podcasting app and make the feeds available to my friends as well (which would be more hassle if we used Tailscale).

I'll turn them into podcasts with tools like Listenbox, YouCast, Podsync

Another option is podsync

If you’re technically minded you can spin up your own instance of https://github.com/mxpv/podsync - I ran one on Amazon S3 for a while until I found listenbox - but you could run on your own server too.

If you have the expertise to do so, the best way to consume YouTube is to use PodSync to map channels to RSS feeds consumable by any standard podcast player. No algorithm, no ads, just the content you actually want to see.

I'm looking to setup https://github.com/mxpv/podsync but I've have numerous issues with mapping the config file.

Not using them personally, but I guess Barcode Buddy and Grocy Android both do exactly that (and more).

I suppose you could see how grocy handles barcodes, https://github.com/Forceu/barcodebuddy

You can additionally install barcode buddy on a raspberry pi with an attached bluetooth barcode scanner to track the chores, by just scanning a custom barcode. In my experience it's the easiest and fastest way, aside from dedicated buttons, which would cost too much.

See maybe there or here or also have a look at Barcode Buddy.

It looks like at least one provider (OpenFoodFacts) provides a language tag, but BarcodeBuddy isn't doing anything with it. I would suggest opening an issue with the feature request: https://github.com/Forceu/barcodebuddy/issues

At the moment Barcode Buddy Federation is probably the closest existing solution - if you are using Barcode Buddy and enable Federation, you can lookup barcodes and receive the Grocy product name that other users have associated with this barcode.

for anyone coming to this thread in order to find a solution. The problem was a bug in the barcode buddy grabinput script (see https://github.com/Forceu/barcodebuddy/issues/170) . After fixing this everythins works as it should.

yeah, a mqtt integration would be a dream. I opened a feature request for barcode buddy but the maintainer has no time at the moment see: https://github.com/Forceu/barcodebuddy/issues/164

That said, if you're using Barcode Buddy, it looks like it can auto-populate fields for scanned items?
