Did you just repost my screenshot from a year ago ?

rPi4 is capable of running the arrs, Plex, and transmission without issue?

what's your storage setup for the 4TB?

OP is stealing my post.

I answered all questions here :

thank you! sorry op stole your content

[–] jerwong@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Yup. I do the same thing and just use the Jellyfin app to access for instances where H265 transcoding is needed. For mine, I just have a USB 1 TB HD connected

[–] Tiis__@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Yes it can. Problems only arise when video transcoding is needed. I can run 2-3 clients on my jellyfin instance if no transcoding is needed what so ever.

EDIT : I'm using a rPi4 8Gb pair with a Synology NAS DS220j

[–] sycot@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

this is good to know. I never really tested it, but I discounted its ability to perform this well. although I guess without transcoding that makes sense. going to reevaluate my rpi4 setup, although I do only have 4gb ram

[–] stefantigro@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

It's not what you think. It can run a lot of things but it's so incredibly slow, especially if you don't have a ssd paired up, that for me it was unbearable.

I mean rpi4 8g ram and boot on an nvmre 🥹 faster and oh so helpful 😅

[–] Furki1907@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Hey u/ignisseneap,

looks cool! Mind sharing all your configurations so i can have some nice examples? ty!

[–] soulsssx3@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Is Jellyfin actually performant for you? Because last I checked, the hardware encoding that the Pi uses isn't completely yet supported in Jellyfin. I tried to play some videos but the resulting videos would take forever to load and seek.

Seeing people run all these containers on a raspberry pi is crazy to me - mainly because of the storage requirements. For some reason my docker containers fill up my VM's storage really quick in the /var/lib/docker/overlay2 folder

[–] crazyCalamari@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Why do you use Plex and Jellyfin?

[–] WassiChain@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

How do you enable those status indicators on Homepage?

Bit blurred screenshot but I guess it works

[–] TBT_TBT@alien.top 1 points 11 months ago

Screenshot was stolen. Not his system.

What dashboard is that?

[–] Discover5164@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago

homepage dashboard

[–] mrchuckbass@alien.top 0 points 11 months ago

Yeah it looks cool installing all of these apps but trying to run more than a few at the same time on a Pi4 will make it slow to a crawl and then throttle and then slow even more

Not exactly where you want your pihole DNS server either
