This is pretty great advice to get into it. I previously ran 3 poweredge 2950s but have since switched to nothing self hosted and back to everything self hosted but on a much leaner setup with a NUC and 14tb WD my book drive with a dual Noctua 4020 fan shroud I 3d printed that it absolutely needed as I killed the original drive in two weeks.

My replica is just a 14tb in my desktop I run rsync to pull the data occasionally after checking SMART status on the primary. It’s not versioned or perfect but it works great to give me a chance to backup my jellyfin media. Everything I care about also gets backed up via restic.

Eventually plan to run a build with the Modcase MASS with multiple drives but for now this setup has been working fantastic.

I don’t own Prusas but I migrated from super slicer to prusaslicer and being able to cut models and add locating pegs easily is such a game changer for larger parts

Be careful depending on the model, some of those run hot. I managed to kill one in under 2 weeks just by copying a large amount of data to it and had to print a fan shroud for it’s replacement to keep the temps at a reasonable level.

Heavily agree, a lot of content had issues playing for me with swiftfin. No issues at all with Infuse other than the fact that intro skipper doesn’t work with it

You’ve insulted my entire existence I challenge you to a duel

Oh those are never fun but glad it’s working! Hopefully stays that way for you! Seems like once you get it all set up it’s pretty hands off.

Now if only I could get the skip intro plugin to work right lol

Hmm yeah odd, it feels like a restriction and you ruled out the CPU usage so unless it’s just not assigned enough resources if virtualized I don’t think it’s that.

I would look at the disk I/O and look for network issues, you could start with pinging the server from the device and then trying to stream and see if it’s all over the place or fairly consistent. Not the best test for it I’m sure but quick to try

WiFi for the clients, wired, or a mix (for the ones you’re having the issue)?

Saw in another comment you mentioned out of the house is this only happening outside of your network? Could be upload speed issues or ISP throttling if you’re not accessing via VPN into your network. Haven’t heard of them throttling Jellyfin Plex etc but could be possible.

I’ve got 3 Wyze cam v3s running the wyze mini hacks firmware sectioned off in a VLAN that can only reach Frigate (no internet).

I have frigate running on a cheap Lenovo M900 I got on ebay for $65 that has an i7 and 8gb of memory and it actually does fairly well without the Google coral USB TPU as long as that was the only service on that system. Trying to run Frigate on my NUC with other services without a TPU caused some issues with CPU usage but with a TPU I would bet it’ll all run on the one system.

Home assistant works exceptionally well for notifying, one of my cameras I have on UDP since the signal isn’t great and get a couple artifacts that trip it up but other than that it has been much quicker to notify and more reliable than anything in the consumer market I’ve tried so far.

Web browser on desktop or the app? Could be transcoding related maybe?

Just the Intel CPU for mine I’m on a NUC7i5 so not enough for the newest but still enough to take the load off

I’m on the 5A now and my wife has a 7, her 7 has the screen randomly freak out where you can’t even turn it on or reset (holding power will make it vibrate after about a second preventing the hold to reset). Just have to mess with it until you can get in and hit restart then it’s fine for another week or two usually.

The 5A is fantastic until it abruptly dies which has happened to me twice now (both times while sitting with it in my hand). If they didn’t have screen and motherboard issues I would absolutely run this phone into the ground since it’s a great experience with GrapheneOS, has a headphones jack, and has the rear facing fingerprint sensor.

I can’t speak to the 6 but I know some people didn’t like them after the 5 since it switched to tensor

Are you transcoding and did you go through setting up hardware acceleration? Mine stalled on playing before setting up hw accel, usually on larger 4k movies it would take about 30 seconds to load and seeking was slow enough to not be usable.

I followed the docs and got hw accel working (bit of a pain since I was using proxmox with LXC) and now an 80 gig movie plays and seeks immediately from my NUC.

What’s the CPU and memory usage on your server when this happens? I’ve only experienced this when I’m maxing out a resource or when the network drops out.

I added mine to an existing compose file and was up and running in a couple minutes. I only use it for chore tracking so cant speak to the rest of it.

Yeah and they have no top end

I used to think people who downloaded videos on YouTube, forum posts with guides or useful info and other data were weird.

They were right.

With archive.org under threat some of it will be gone for good unfortunately. Save what you can when you can it might not be there later.

I’m patiently waiting for my 4th Pixel 5A RMA since they love frying motherboards outta nowhere but damn once you get grapheneos going it really is something else
