A NAS case running Unraid, with Jellyfin in a docker container. All my music, movies and tv shows are on it.

Intel N100 Beelink box with 16GB of single channel RAM runs my Jellyfin server and Caddy. It's also hooked up to my home theater system directly so I can use Moonlight on it to stream my main gaming PC.

My storage is a 4-bay aluminum USB 3.0 external enclosure attached to an M1 Mac Mini running Asahi Linux (Arch BTW). The Mac mini runs my Arr stack and mergerfs on the external drives so I can load balance across them and scale it up or down as needed. So basically the Mac Mini acts as a NAS.

I have a Arch Linux server running Jellyfin under my desk, attached to 2x 4To NAS HDD with smb shares on it for my wifes work so she can share between her pc and iphone, and i got the jellyfin app on my iphone and appletv so we can watch anything anywhere in the house whenever we like

Got mine in-house on an hpe dl360 gen 9 running in docker with 2 18tb drives for storing Linux ISO's :)

That’s a lot of ISOs!

thagoat ,

I do enjoy my ISO's 😎🤣

I have a Debian VM that runs on a two node Proxmox cluster. The media is shared from an NFS share hosted on a Pi4 that has a USB drive attached.

The two nodes are new from AliExpress and have an N100 CPU, 16GB RAM and 512GB of SSD storage. They were £90 each.

A cheap setup but it works for me. It's really to replace Plex which has been the go to app for media around the home.

I'm running jellyfin docker container on my Synology. Works great, but I don't transcode. ... Which is another rabbit hole.

Good question, good to see how others do it.

Mine: A well specced debian server in the garage running a crapload of stuff, including arrs and Jellyfin with Jellyseer, all in docker containers. Playback via debian laptop or Windows desktop using the official apps, and the tv paired with an Amazon Fire dongle running the Jellyfin app. All works really well.

The only problem is my wife sometimes deletes an entire series instead of the series somehow. I honestly don't know how but I've had to download Young Sheldon for her four times now...

my wife sometimes deletes an entire series

Sounds like you need to take away her delete privileges.

digdilem ,

Not going to say you're wrong.

My server is an old office PC my uni threw out (4th gen Intel i5) with 14GB of mismatched RAM they also threw out and like 3.5TB of HDDs and a 120GB SSD, I had laying around. I recently threw in a cheap, secondhand GTX 1050Ti for transcoding and tonemapping. The whole thing runs openmediavault (debian based server distro). I have Jellyfin running in docker.

For watching, I mostly use Infuse Pro on my AppleTV 4K. On mobile, I was using the Jellyfin App but since the update a little while ago, I’ve been testing swiftfin again.

I also know for sure that friends that have access have been watching via the AndroidTV app, WebOS App and various web browsers.

nothing to share about my setup, but I've just checked and I haven't used finamp on my phone since november last year. reason - Innertune. works phenomenally on the shittiest data plan, haven't maxed it out once.

My potato server died a few months ago and since I'll be moving shortly I'm not rebuilding it right know. So I bought a simple intel nuc, slapped an old HDD inside and connected to the TV.

Jellyfin runs in the the background but I access it throght Kodi. Jellyfin is accessed directly only if my wife want to watch something from her study.

I’ve got a couple movies and TV shows hosted on my PC. When I eventually get a NAS for my business, I’ll host Jellyfin on a NAS

PC Specs:
EndeavourOS
Ryzen 5 3600
32GB RAM
GTX 1660TI

BritishJ ,

Keep business and personal separate. And make sure that you have encrypted backups for your business and an off site backup.

governorkeagan ,

That’s the plan.

I run it on my Debian server that uses my 15 TB RAID5 array as storage. (When I built it, 15 TB drives were a dream...now I have a 12 TB drive in my desktop computer that serves as backup to the array.)

I mainly serve it out to the client on our DirectTV streaming device. Works fine, other than I wish the intro skip plugin would be able to give me the option to skip on that client (the only way it works on the Android client is to have it skip automatically).

I run jellyfin on a kubernetes cluster which accesses my NAS via NFS.

Installed from the Arch repos on my home server.

Watch it through Firefox on our TV on a Radxa Rock 5B running Arch Linux ARM.

matcha_addict ,

Curious why arch for a server. How's your experience with it?

spacemanspiffy ,

Because I like it, I like having the AUR, and I have a few Arch machines so I put a shared pacman cache here.

As a server, no issues really. Most apps besides Jellyfin and a TVHeadend run in Docker.

Currently, everything is setup on my main desktop which is currently on a battery backup as well as my modem and router since we occasionally have a “blink” in the power which could frack up my entire setup. I’ll move to a proper NAS setup with a mini-PC eventually, but it’s not a priority.

I use Jellyfin as a whole “Netflix” experience, where the library is always expanding and nothing ever leaves the library unless I just get annoyed (looking at you, Netflix ATLA). I’ve got about 20TB of space spread across three drives and backups of everything, so whatever sparks my whimsy to add to the library gets added. Someone quips, “Bears, Beets, Battlestar Galactica” and I think, “Hm…maybe I should Battlestar Galactica to my Jellyfin?” I add it, and it’s just there whenever I’m ready.

I’ve shared with 8 friends and family so far. They don’t all use it constantly; some forget about it, some watch it all day and night for like 5 days in a row, some ask for something and watch immediately, others ask for stuff and don’t watch ever.

I have to add that Jellyfin has actually been life-changing for me. Prior to Jellyfin, my solution was a cheap laptop attached to each TV in the house that held a fair amount of my total content via smaller external drives, and there was no cohesiveness, so I could never “get into” shows because I’d have to remember where I’d left off, and make sure the files were copied to the relative laptop, or somehow try to stream from the main desktop through Windows Network which didn’t always connect.

Now, have access to every single part of my collection on all three TVs, and share with my friends and family who have given up on paying for 7 different streaming apps, and also I have access to everything when I travel.

I just wish that I was adept in some language so I could actively help with a project I love so much. ☺️
