I have 16TB NAS dedicated to storing TV shows. It is just a cabinet with ryzen 2600 and no graphics card. I have installed openmediavault in it to access it via smb to other devices. I am an absolute noob in setting up a server. Please tell me how I should go on about turning it into a media consumption machine.

P. S: I usually use VLC on android and MPV on linux to consume the media.

Can you even watch jellyfin away from home?

[-] Blaiz0r@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Yes, but you need to know a little about network configuration to do that

You need to know a little about networking for all of this 🤷‍♂️

[-] danafest@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

Yep it's not simple, but also not too difficult. Get a domain name and set up DNS. Open 80/443 on your router, use linuxserver.io's SWAG container for easy automatic cert generation/renewal and nginx reverse proxy to access your hosted services. Have a decent upload speed. That's about it

I already have plex lifetime pass

[-] PeachMan@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

For the record, a Plex pass isn't required to watch remotely....but if you like Plex, sticking with Plex is fine. Jellyfin is cool and open source, but it doesn't have any killer features that Plex is missing. They both do basically the same thing, it's the minor details that are different.
