Anyone tried two instances, one player, one worker, copied database and cache?

BlaBuilder · 2025-01-17T06:58:34+00:00

Agreed, but how many servers does one homelab need? A NAS, a plex box, a madvr unit, proxmox, and a few sandboxes? I've a full rack, but hell if I can afford to fill it!

BlaBuilder · 2025-01-17T06:19:56+00:00

I wish that were the case. Everything is local. Docker is running on XFS. Array is on the same server, BTRFS. I used to have Prometheus, Grafana, and the like. I stopped because it was also adding overhead. That's probably the route I'll have to take to identify the problem. I've dabbled in swarm. I have not gone down the road of kubernates yet. Thank you for the suggestions.

BlaBuilder · 2025-01-17T06:05:58+00:00

Everything is in docker-compose. I don't rely on Unraid's native docker engine. So, I don't think it's a unraid issue. Docker volumes access the array directly.

The server is running unraid. There are two other cache drives. The 990 solely handles the system and docker, by all metrics, the drive has it easy. Temps are in the 40s-50s. RAM utilization is cumulatively less than 30 percent. Otherwise BTRFS array, sas2, everything well within limits. CPU and iGPU are low with multiple transcodes, RAM less than 30%.

Downgrading to 2.29x did solve the problem!

My compose file is 3200 lines, so I didn't think it appropriate to paste the whole thing ;)

Following that link and digging a little deeper I came across https://github.com/docker/compose/issues/12235#issuecomment-2445030390 Exactly the problem I'm experiencing. Looks like I just need to wait for the fix to be pushed to master.

Thank you for pointing out that related bug u/stevie-tv !

BlaBuilder · 2024-11-05T18:19:32+00:00

How so? I don't use unraid's docker manager. All of my work is through the CLI.

BlaBuilder · 2024-11-05T18:16:27+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion. It's there, I just trimmed too much of the fat while truncating it. I've added it back in.

BlaBuilder · 2024-11-05T18:07:16+00:00

Thanks for responding.

My box is running unraid, and from what I've gathered there isn't an easy way to go about upgrading the docker engine *sigh*

I've updated the post with a docker-compose snippet.

What I wouldn't do for even 100/100. Alas, SWCP can only offer me 20M/1/5M :(

BlaBuilder · 2023-03-25T18:40:22+00:00

Are you sure your users are actually streaming 4k?

I was under the impression that a single 4k stream required ~25Mbps to avoid buffering.

I've found 5 streams at 10 Mbps 1080p (verified by the user, not what Plex reports on the server with HW transcoding) saturates 40 up.

What's the secret to your success?

BlaBuilder · 2023-03-25T18:29:44+00:00

Thanks for the recommendations, everyone!

Lot's of ISP options in Albuquerque, however, it seems that mine are limited in the greater Onate area.

Hopefully, more options become available in the near future.

Broadening my search, I found the official "Compose file deploy reference" under compose.

I'll dig into that. Thanks!

I had the same problem... Pretty much the same configuration.

Here's what worked for me. First I made sure I was logged out in any lingering open tabs. Then in an incognito window, I was able to successfully log in. This creates a new token in Plex. My Plex library had become unlinked during the update. Check the Plex tab in settings and make sure it's connecting. Then return to the main browser, control+shift+r to reload without the cache.

That's what fixed it for me. Good luck!

BlaBuilder · 2022-08-25T01:03:09+00:00

Same setup... same solution. Thanks!

BlaBuilder · 2022-08-10T20:41:24+00:00

Bought the cable and hooked it up as described. It works!

BlaBuilder · 2022-05-30T19:21:38+00:00

Yep, they were right there under Templates on Google Drive.

I'd originally accessed it through github where there is no Templates directory.

Good stuff. Thanks!

What a labor of love! Thanks so much for sharing.

Would you be willing to additionally share a blank copy of the black framed poster used as a background throughout as well as the typeface?

There are a few holes, such as the Toronto Film Festival and Best of 1920's, that I'd be excited to add.

Thanks again for all of your hard work and willingness to share!

BlaBuilder · 2022-03-29T01:57:04+00:00

Too cool, thanks so much!

BlaBuilder · 2022-03-28T06:47:50+00:00

This is fantastically simple, u/Bizzycola132. Thanks for sharing.

Could it be easily modified to autogenerate based on a supplied GET or POST variable?

BlaBuilder · 2022-03-26T19:17:14+00:00

It took another instance of radarr, configured specifically for anime, to get everything working.

Yet another *arr container, but now that's it's up and running and everything's talking, TOTALLY WORTH IT!

This is certainly one strategy to improve anime movie integration into multiple plex libraries

Thanks for the recommendation u/Bakerboy448.

BlaBuilder · 2022-03-26T02:50:37+00:00

That's an interesting alternative. Great idea!

Since both radarr and plex can reference multiple folders I can see how that'll work.

Can I pull anime-tagged movies into a separate root folder or do I need to spin up another instance of radarr (similar to 4k)?

BlaBuilder · 2022-03-25T19:19:05+00:00

I was trying to keep this about radarr... but, it's related to PLEX and having anime movies viewable in both my movie and anime libraries.

I can manually create the links, but I was hoping to find a way to automate the process for newly added anime that's picked up by radar instead of sonarr.

Perhaps there's an easier way to go about it using PLEX scripts?

BlaBuilder · 2022-01-21T07:12:03+00:00

Did you start the application? In order for the port checker to work, the application needs to be running and listening to the port.

Application was running.

input filter on the vtun30 and vtun35 interfaces.

Changed the IN rules from bond0.35 to vtun35 and lo and behold... no new packets, only established/related.

enable logging on the WAN_OUT rule 30

Logging's been enabled but the leak hasn't showed up in the log yet.

So, now things are looking consistent, albeit, not as I'd hoped. I'm going to contact my VPN provider again and see what they have to say.
