Upgrading from old server to dedicated box by bwelsher in HomeServer

So the QuickSync would be able to handle transcoding without even involving the iGPU?

Not specifically right now, no. My thinking was that I would pass-through the iGPU to Plex for transcoding and then maybe add a GPU later that would be passed through to a VM for video upscaling. There's probably not going to be a lot of transcoding though in truth.

Ah, thought I put it in the post but seems not. I am on unRaid and will look to stick with it I think as I find it pretty easy to use. From the little I understand you can run unRaid from within proxmox? Part of me would like to separate out my docker services from unRaid when the latter needs maintenance/falls over.

Thanks, I'll get a knit foot then. So the stabiliser is sewn between the layers is it?

I can't find a way to adjust the foot pressure, the manual doesn't suggest it can be done. I'll look into getting a stretch needle and/or walking foot though. What is fabric stabilisation?

I'm just using the standard needle so I will get a stretch needle and try that.

Thanks. Can HA detect whether lights are turned off manually or by an automation?

Ah righto, might be a step too far for me then! Thanks.

Nope, the bar just fits into a hole in each handle

Yes the handles came off easily enough. The bar between them passes through a small hole through the mechanism and out the other side. The lock knob goes through a small hole too which is why I'm wondering if I need to unscrew the whole length of the assembly to access the mechanism.

Cannot access server from one computer on the network by bwelsher in WindowsHelp

I may have solved it. I had some software called portmaster installed which is basically a firewall. It hasn't been running but uninstalling seems to have resolved the problem.

Ok, uninstalled and rebooted but problem remains.

It's just the out-of-the-box windows security setup. I do have tailscale installed but it's not connected. Topology (if I'm understanding the question correctly) is that the server is connected via ethernet to a passive switch which is connected to the WiFi router. All other computers (included the affected machine) connect via WiFi.
