Didn't Plex used to do something like that natively? It would simulate live TV using your library, right down to being half way through an episode when you switched to that channel.

The cut-off date for the integration is October, while Tidal subscriptions taken out via Plex will stop getting renewed in September.
Edit: Comparing mine and OP's emails I'm guessing it was a different template depending on whether you subscribed via Plex or directly through Tidal. The 26th is probably OP's renewal date.
I've heard Shelly bandied about quite a lot in the HA circle but this is the first thing that's made me sit up and take notice. You're saying they're far more customisable than, say, your standard ZigBee light switch?
Admittedly it was a few years ago since I last tried, but even in WPA2 compatibility mode I had no end of trouble either getting things to join in the first place or weird stability issues afterwards.
Maybe things have improved now, but when 2 "just works" and is good enough for most use cases I've been reluctant to try 3 again.
Kudos to you for doing this, but for all that free press they got and the exec's trip on the company dime, you'd have thought they'd let you keep the £500!
Came here to post this and you beat me by 8 hours.
Yes of course! I enabled experimental features to use a template add-on, but I later removed it and turned the option off.
Either they A/B tested this or they accidentally released some of it early because I got all of that new UI stuff a few months ago, complete with addons appearing in the HA updates section. A few days later, just as I'd got used the change, it disappeared!
At least I now know I wasn't going mad.
Never named any of my cars until we got an ID4. It is called Heidi.
Yeah I much prefer them to all of the Rockpox stuff. Also agreed about the septic spreader. Had one hiding behind a branch in Hollow Bough and it straight up mortar shot me from cover.
To be fair the Synology lineup is confusing, but if you get the right model - one with a Ryzen processor and support for 32GB memory (officially; they can take more) - then you've got yourself a proper little workhorse with low power consumption, a stable, reliable OS, and super easy expansion thanks to the hot-swap drive bays and their Hybrid RAID option. My 8 bay model is running a couple of full-blown VMs and what must be two dozen or so docker containers while barely breaking a sweat. The DS723+ is the equivalent 2 bay model.
For things that need some acceleration like Plex and Immich I've added a little N100 box (a Beelink S12 Pro) with Ubuntu Server and another Docker instance, and mounted the NAS storage via SMB. This also sips power even when transcoding 4x Plex streams at once.
All of which is to say you don't need to do a complex, potentially power hungry and difficult to expand self build to do what you want.
Thanks, I'm going to have to put some research into this!
