Heya, does anyone have experiences with using a pi4 as a Jellyfin media server? I’d like to set it up like that. Do you think a regular external HDD would work as storage space? Will it be possible to have like 3 to 4 devices streaming at the same time?Recommendations for tutorials are highly appreciated!
I’m currently running a jellyfin server (among other things) on a pi2! I’m using a 1Tb HDD powered by a dockstation . Like said, transcoding is problematic so I disabled it and with my setup 2 simultaneous streamings sometimes crash the system…but my major problem it’s been the power …at least once a week my HDD gives me input output error…I think it’s about the power supply…I had some issues with permissions too …I don’t know why half of the volumes had user 123 ownership and half a dnsmasq ownership …but was easy to fix …I’ve been planning to upgrade to an old core 2 duo I have to make transcoding possible and to upgrade my storage …so it’s possible but depending on what you wanna do may be time consuming
