Yeah, I knew hardware transcoding on AMD CPU’s was non existent in the past with Plex, was wondering if that changed at all. Guess not - I believe my current Xeon supports Quicksync so for Plex duties the “upgrade” might actually be a downgrade….

My Ryzen 3 2200G based Plex server does HW encoding with the iGPU that looks pretty good.

Couple more questions as I get back into this: 1. Is it worth installing Docker Desktop for some of the apps that don't have native windows support, like Overseerr or Homarr? Alternately are there any other companion apps I should be looking at? Being able to easily add media from my phone would be sweet, and I'd also love a centralized place to see current downloads. 2. Right now I have two 4TB drives and I'm getting low on space. I have them organized with TV Shows A-M on one and then TV Shows N-Z and Movies on the other. If I add another drive my organization is going to get all messed up. I'm guessing most people use some kind of software to add physical drives to a pool so that they can just have a Movies folder and a TV Shows folder? Is there some way I can do that without having to move all my stuff off the existing drives first?

You can add multiple drives/multiple folders to each of your Plex libraries. So if you want to just add a new drive you can and just add your new stuff to that and point your existing libraries at folders on it. Plex doesn't care.

Based on some Reddit posts there appear to have been two different chips sold as the GT730, one of which can't do it at all, the other can but probably isn't going to do better in any metric than software transcoding on your CPU.

Ah, that sucks. I also have a spare RX570 4GB card, but seems like Plex transcode does not work on AMD graphics cards either.* Oh well, not loss really. It's just spare parts I had lying around. *They say it might, depends on the card, not really tested and not nearly as good as QuickSync/Nvidia E: Just double checked my Unraid server, currently rocking a E3-1225 v3 which is apparently one of the first intel procs to support QuickSync haha. Double Edit: comedy option: purchase a cheap intel ARC card for Plex transcoding to help the Ryzen 1600...hmm... chocolateTHUNDER fucked around with this message at 21:25 on Dec 31, 2023 |

Kirios posted:Are the current tier of Asustor NAS (Specifically the 3302T) good enough for transcoding? The 3302T doesn't look to have an iGPU, so you can get some software transcodes out of it, but not well. This is the Plex list of devices, that can help narrow down something that works for you. The 3302T is line 28. It looks like the 3304T v2 had a celeron w/ quick sync. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MfYoJkiwSqCXg8cm5-Ac4oOLPRtCkgUxU0jdj3tmMPc/edit#gid=1274624273

Are there any good best practices for defense in depth of your Plex service and *arr service stack? It occurred to me the other day that my only real security boundary is the edge of my local network, and any house guest who logs into my WiFi has basically full license to muck with my radarr configurations, harvest api keys, etc. Other than the obvious steps of setting passwords on the *arrs, what other steps should I take, should I be sticking all of my IoT devices on VLANs or something?

All of my services are protected with Authelia SSO and SWAG reverse proxies. Except for Plex which provides its own SSO. Also my services are segmented on docker networks. And none of my Arrs are exposed to the internet.

You pretty much named the two things I feel like are the standards, IoT on their own VLAN and guest WiFi. If you're running docker containers, have them on their own custom docker network, and set up a reverse proxy if you're going to have anything externally facing. efb

Iirc all the major arrs are enforcing authentication these days. I also know the people that know my network password do not know or care about my bullshit so security via obscurity wins again.

Is there an easy way to get the api stuff to pass through with Authelia in front of the arrs? I just followed a YouTube video to set up Authelia with Ngnix proxy manager and it borked all the API calls to Homepage when I set it up, so instead I just have a guest network.

Stop configuring them to loop back through the machine IP and use their docker DNS name plus port. This bypasses SSO completely since it’s all internal traffic.

Well Played Mauer posted:Is there an easy way to get the api stuff to pass through with Authelia in front of the arrs? No. It's a complicated pain in the rear end requiring you to run at least two other services just for Authelia. That's why I wrote my own, which is also a complicated pain in the rear end, but doesn't need any other services. I recently stumbled across something that claims to provide OIDC with Caddy's built-in forward authentication doodad. It uses the same clever idea my thing uses: cryptographically sign the magic gubbins with a private key and make the browser keep track of state. I may give this a whirl some weekend, tying it in with my forgejo server, which includes an OIDC provider. So, in closing, no. cruft fucked around with this message at 03:42 on Jan 5, 2024 |
