Question is what is the average setup and guides for this?
I don’t think there is an “average” setup because everyone’s hardware and needs are different.
What are you trying to “fix” with Plex/Jellyifn?
Will you still be using it your existing hardware? If so, what are the specs?
OS all depends on what you’re doing; I would think for the beeline you’d run something without a GUI and utilize Docker or some sort of virtualization.
Tape/glue the Pi in the case to the HDD.
Done.
A TV that isn’t connected to a network is a dumb screen.
Speaking of which, what’s the most frugal cloud backup method these days?
Price to performance and (software) support.
ELI5
Remote KVM lets you access the machine as if you’re in front of it, including pre-boot / BIOS / BSoD’s / Etc (when software isn’t / can’t run) because the device (usually) connects to the computer’s USB/VGA port.
Agreed.
Was proving that you can find a half way decent machine that’s more capable than a Pi5 at the same price point (~$100)
SD card, sure.
Old phone charger? Might not be strong enough to power a Pi 4/5; this isn’t the Pi 3 days with a microUSB.
“… and I’ve got a 3D printer.“
Yeah, you’re “ahead” of most people with that one.
This i5 could probably handle it, and you’ve got $$$ left over for an SSD.
By the time you factor in a case, cooling, SD card, and power supply a Pi can cost about as much (~$100) as an off lease i5.
Don’t allow transcoding and you won’t use any GPU.
Let this be a lesson to implement a change freeze 1 week before leaving home for a holiday/trip/etc. 😁
I have this issue with a dual boot windows/linux mint machine. Happens when I boot into windows then go back to mint; mint has no sound.
Easiest fix I’ve found is to disable the onboard audio in the BIOS, boot into mint, shutdown, re enable audio in the BIOS, boot into Mint. The windows kernel seems to hold on to the audio device for some reason.
Not sure why you’re downvoted; this is what’s happening.
Don’t believe me? Try blocking ads on IMDB using DNS blacklisting ONLY AND still get the site to load properly.
eSATA fell out of fashion when USB got faster AND eSATA wasn’t hot plug and play.
Possibly, but for how ad laiden YT has become it’s a path I’m willing to take.
