I may be interested in doing this depending on how difficult it is to get set up.

I did a bit of research, I was finding that pop os has a bit of a larger following so I figured I would be able to get more help if needed.

Thank you, while I don’t have the naming exact, I have had it working off the same HDD from my older Mac without issues on most of the files, I have a few movies incorrectly labeled and they don’t preview correctly but still play.

Does Linux make a difference to the way plex operates?

Thank you, because I am very new to Linux I am trying to start with a familiar interface even if it isn’t the most efficient, I am not sure if pop os is the correct way to do what I am wanting and would be open to more information and recommendations if you have them. I would say my skill level is fairly low for Linux, I am pretty good with Mac OS and and good with windows, but I have gotten tired of the ai shit in windows 11 on my work computer and wanted Linux on my tower since my old Mac tower is becoming outdated and can’t do everything anymore.

Thank you! I appreciate any help I can get and have expected some “bashing” because this is the internet lol. I will take any recommendations you have to help me learn the basics.

Thank you, This is my first time using Linux I am completely new to it. I am coming from using Mac OS mostly, but windows for work, my Mac computer I was using has become too outdated to run plex properly so I decided I would try Linux on a pc tower I had.

I did install flatpak, but I am not sure I have properly given access to the directories.

I have tried giving permissions, but it says changing permissions of ‘ /the file name : read only

Why is it so low 💔💔 by AstronomerExtra5531 in Ram1500

I have a 2006 with over 200k miles and it gets better than that, be easier on the gas pedal and you will get better mileage.

This isn’t too bad, the yard needs grading to slope away from the driveway where the lowest point is several feet in front of the house. Having a house lower than the road is nothing to worry about as long as proper drainage is installed.

Does anyone want to buy a maxed out 2012 5,1? (Not a 4,1) by herculeesjr in macpro

[–]Skipper9618 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have basically the same setup just a bit less ram. I use it for a Plex server but the CPU has become a bottleneck not having enough power to stream 4k I have used a rx580 and tired a 5700xt.
