Thanks to your video, I was able to set up my Plex media server.
It is the only video with which I was able to mount my PLEX server on my raspberry pi5.
A greeting from Spain :)
Thanks for this really informative video. I am thinking about setting up a Plex server and you have persuaded me to go down the Pi route. Cheers!
Got mine up and running and it streams great. Thanks for this. I am having a hard time updating PMS, though. Any chance of making a video for that?
Hey ! Thanks for your Tutorial. It was really helpful ! I see there is an update. Do you know how to update ? I right click and check update on my main menu on Casa OS, but it's wrinting that there is any update... Thanks
is the performance of the raspberry 5 much higher than the raspi 4? in case of streaming 4k videos inside my home network? sometimes my raspi 4 laggs while streaming high quality movies
Hi,
This video is great, but I'm running into a problem with the configuration upon reboot. I'm running this setup with three drives (independently powered and connected via a powered USB hub) and after a little bit of trial and error, I figured out how to modify the instructions given to properly format, label and mount all three drives.
But now I'm running into a problems and errors and boot loops on any reboot or restart of the raspberry pi 5. I've been trying to find a solution to the problem online, but I cannot narrow down the solution to one I can apply to your guide.
From what I have read, it seems like the issue I'm running into is related to either, (A) because of the way Raspberry Pi OS is configured, I think what I read said that PARTUUID may not 'static' for reasons related to using Pi's in a cluster, so the drives UUID may not be staying fixed after a reboot or (B) The instructions are missing code to set drive priority and/or drive timing so the Raspberry Pi knows to delay loading a boot drive until a specific drive boots which has the configured OS on it. I also read something about problems with rebooting where the OS may be writing relevant boot data to the extra mounted drives and it could be causing boot issues.
I think the problem is likely (B) and the instructions need additional code to make sure the system only boots the Micro SD card and not the other drive(s). Do you know what code would need to be added and where in order to fix the boot issue?
Hello, could you make a video on how to update the Plex server from CasaOS?
great video on my side, I installed Ubuntu and plex server but when I put mkv films in 4k or other it does not work I have an error "not enough power" however on the video you are watching a video in 4k? I have a pi5 4GB
Are you using the recommended 27w power supply?
Question, why you all use a MicroSD card if you can use a m.2 SSD with adapter (MicroSD Cards are not build for working space, it should used only for Data storage) ???
What about OMV 7 + Plex? It has GUI for drive operations (mounting and formatting) which is easier.
You can do that way also
I am using a raspberry 4 model b. I haven't a clue. Any recommended videos or reading ?
Just follow this vid
Txs a lot! two questions: is CasaOs necessary? can the SSD be replaced by HDD? last what is the problem in using WIFI internet connection?
Yes you can use HDD ...
Ethernet connection is the best cause when you ssh into pi 5 or access the casa OS with in a network you wont face any lag, latency will be very low where as WIFI module in pi 5 very bad I didn't like it. It drops the connection sometimes.
it works really well but I got a problem when I reboot the Pi... I might have made a mistake somewhere when I made the mount automatic after reboot.... decided to skip the last passage and do it manually everytime a reboot is needed
How well does transcoding work on a remote stream?
Not Bad. I didn't notice major changes.
Would I be correct in assuming overclocking the Pi5 isn't necessary for 4K 60FPS streams?
It can resolve issues regarding video steams.
Followed through to what i could. little differences with the drive being mounted. But now i cant watch my vidoes even though theyre in plex i get a "file unavailable"
Hmm cheak the file in drive first , then recheak the drive mounting paths
How to update the Plex server from casaos?
Hi can you make a guide for installing Jellyfin please?
It's almost similar to this. But sure I will post a video soon.
ctrl+shift+v? and i was wondering why it wouldnt work pasting damn you are a good person :)
hi is this to get rid of paying for Netflix and to play games ?
Yes these are netflix alternatives to host own media server with your content not for gaming.
Anyone run into an issue with a blank fstab file? Or know how to fix it?
For some reason I can't install Plex in CasaOS, I can't even press "Install" it just says "Not compatible with armv7 devices.", any ideas?
Reboot the Pi and try again.
Have you got hardware acceleration working on jellyfin?
Pi 5 lacks hardware encoders, you can't use it for hw accel. There might bea chance someone will get hw accel to work with a dedicated gpu on the pi 5.
Yo i was just scrolling through yt and came across this fresh video. So i decided to stay and watch this 😅 cus im a big linux nerd and i use arch btw 😂
only Arch users can flex as a linux user nowadays
@@zero_O0 yeah arch Linux is not for faint hearted only the super nerds can manage arch. Cus one must have the Knowledge to fix something when it's broken in arch. If one can't fix suff by there own then Linux isn't a good choice for the. Anyways I still prefer to use Linux over windows.
Should it be
UUID="34b783d2-0937-4243-bda5-07a5acffa613"
or
UUID=34b783d2-0937-4243-bda5-07a5acffa613
Documentation is not specific but I believe it is without quotes!
This video may be about Plex on Rpi5 but for me it taught me a lot about mounting drives - Thanks for that!
run *blkid* command & you can copy the UUID
the format is UUID=""
Inside double quotes provide a device block id..
