  • Its been a minute since I’ve used Plex so I don’t remember the exact specifications, but I set up a separate library in Plex and directed it to my YouTube folder where I had everything pre-organized, and then I selected the option in Plex that was something like “show folders,” which organized the Plex library the way I had the directory organized. It wasn’t perfect because I had to set up everything manually, but all I wanted was to be able to watch my YouTube videos from anywhere in the house, and for that it was perfect.













  • I’m using docker. Tried to set up Jellyfin in one but I couldn’t for the life of me figure out how to get it to work, even following the official documentation. Ended up just running the jellyfin package from my distros repo, which worked fine for me. Also tried running a tor snowflake, which worked, but there was some issue with the NAS being restricted and I couldn’t figure out how to fix that. I kinda gave up at that point and saved the whole container thing to figure out another day. I only switched to Linux and started self-hosting last year, so I’m still pretty new to all of this.
