I don't care about 4K or +60 FPS because I don't have a TV with that capabilities and don't think in buy one in a couple of years. I'm a linux used so I'm not scared of some commands or use the terminal if needed In this video I overview many of the features of some of the leading media server clients including PLEX, Jellyfin and Emby. To get the server running on the Pi we need to utilize an x86 emulator that can convert the programs instructions to ARM.

TeamSpeak is a popular VoIP system that is popular with gaming. Through this video and tutorial, we are going to explain you about 'How to install Emby Media Server on OpenMediaVault 5 using Docker with Portainer on Raspb. But since SD cards are cheap these days, we recommend going for at least an 16GB Class 10 SD card for an older Pi or a 16GB Class 10 microSD card for the newer models. The Raspberry Pi Foundation recommends, at minimum, a 4GB Class 4 SD card.

I have an emby server running in a Linux Machine with the files previous mentioned. In this project you will be learning how to set your Raspberry Pi up as your very own TeamSpeak server. A 4GB+ SD card: The older Pi units used a full size SD card but the Pi 2 and Pi 3 use microSD cards.

near 3TB of multimedia + 100GB of comics files. all my video files are MKV (720p and 1080p) and most with included subtitles and dual audio, the rest have STR files. I have used Kodi for a long time and know how to manage my library. The RPi could be changed for a mini PC but I'll really love to use a PI over a PC because of the cost it's less than half and the energy consumption.ĪWOW Mini PC Celeron 1.2 - 2.2 GHz 4 core 6GB ram 128 ssd Intel HD Graphics 500īeelink U57 Core i5 2.7 - 3.1 GHz 2 core 8 ram 128 ssd Intel Iris Graphics 6100 Install Emby server on it using the Debian package I want to "stream" comics (cbr/cbz) from my server to an android app.

My idea is to use a RPi 4 with 8GB of ram but I have seen in the forum that it has some decoding and encoding problems but I really don't know what that means in this context, I know the file should be encoded to be playable but my videos are already playable so I don't know why emby needs to encode them again. Also I have found this thread that says the raspberry pi could use hardware encoding and this reddit post that says the same but with a lot more steps.Īlso I'm thinking of use this server as a personal cloud using owncloud so I could have my media and another files on demand. As described on its official website, Emby aims to bring together personal videos, music, photos and live television. I'm thinking in build a media server using emby, I wan't to have the lowest energy cost so I could leave it on all the time.
